Segment DataThe Companys reportable segments consist of automotive and industrial parts. Within the reportable segments, certain of the Companys operating segments are aggregated since they have similar economic characteristics, products and services, type and class of customers, and distribution methods. The Companys automotive segment distributes replacement parts (other than body parts) for substantially all makes and models of automobiles, trucks, and other vehicles. The Companys industrial segment distributes a wide variety of industrial bearings, mechanical and fluid power transmission equipment, including hydraulic and pneumatic products, material handling components and related parts and supplies. Inter-segment sales are not significant. Segment profit for each industry segment is calculated as net sales less operating expenses excluding general corporate expenses, interest expense, equity in income from investees, intangible asset amortization, income attributable to noncontrolling interests and other unallocated amounts that are driven by corporate initiatives.
