Information by Business Segments

NOTE 16. INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The business segment presentation reflects the information reviewed by the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer). Such information is the basis for the analysis of segment performance and the allocation of resources. Performance is evaluated based on net income (loss) and variances of actual performance from the Company's budget and/or forecast when making decisions. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Avista Utilities' business is managed based on the total regulated utility operation; therefore, it is considered one segment. AEL&P is a separate reportable business segment since it has separate financial information and its operations and risks are sufficiently different from Avista Utilities and the other businesses at AERC that it cannot be aggregated with other operating segments. The Other category, which is not a reportable segment, includes other investments and operations of various subsidiaries, as well as certain other operations of Avista Capital. Decisions by the CODM are made in

consultation with other members of management, as appropriate, and are subject to the general oversight and strategic direction of the Board of Directors.

The following table presents information for each of the Company’s business segments (dollars in millions):
