NOTE 16. SEGMENT REPORTING
We have identified two reportable segments: Specialty Retail stores and Direct Marketing. The Retail stores segment includes all
Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman retail stores, including Neiman Marcus clearance stores. The Direct Marketing segment conducts
both online and print catalog operations under the Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman and Horchow brand names. Other includes the
operations of Kate Spade LLC.
Both the Specialty Retail stores and Direct Marketing segments, as well as Kate Spade LLC, derive their revenues from the sales
of high-end fashion apparel, accessories, cosmetics and fragrances from leading designers, precious and fashion jewelry and decorative
home accessories.
Operating earnings for the segments include 1) revenues, 2) cost of sales, 3) direct selling, general, and administrative
expenses, 4) other direct operating expenses, 5) income from credit card operations and 6) depreciation expense for the respective
segment. Items not allocated to our operating segments include those items not considered by management in measuring the assets
and profitability of our segments. These amounts include 1) corporate expenses including, but not limited to, treasury, investor
relations, legal and finance support services, and general corporate management, 2) charges related to the application of purchase
accounting adjustments made in connection with the Acquisition including amortization of customer lists and favorable lease
commitments and other non-cash valuation charges and 3) interest expense. These items, while often times related to the operations of
a segment, are not considered by segment operating management, corporate operating management and the chief operating decision
maker in assessing segment operating performance. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies (except with respect to purchase accounting adjustments not allocated to
the operating segments). Our senior management evaluates the performance of our assets on a consolidated basis.
