70 NIKON REPORT 2015
21. Segment Information
1. Description of Reportable Segments
The business segments that the Group reports are the business
units for which the Company is able to obtain discrete nancial
information separately in order for the Board of Directors to conduct
periodic investigation to determine distribution of management
resources and evaluate their business results.
The Group introduced the in-house company system in 1999,
and each operating division has been thoroughly responsible for
self-governance under this decentralized management system.
However, in order to reect the intention of management more
directly in business administration and to build a system capable of
carrying out fundamental restructuring, from June 27, 2014, the
Group was reorganized into a divisional system directly supervised
by the president according to the business eld. The divisions were
integrated in consideration of similarity, etc., of economic charac-
teristics, and the Group has the same three reportable segments as
before: the Precision Equipment Business, the Imaging Products
Business, and the Instruments Business.
The Precision Equipment Business provides products and ser-
vices with regard to IC steppers and LCD steppers. The Imaging
Products Business provides products and services related to imag-
ing products and its peripheral domain, such as digital SLR cam-
eras, compact digital cameras, and interchangeable camera lenses.
The Instruments Business provides products and services in relation
to microscopes, measuring instruments, x-ray/CT inspection sys-
tems, etc.
2. Methods of Measurement for the Amounts of Sales, Prot
(Loss), Assets, and Other Items for Each Reportable Segment
The accounting policies of each reportable segment are consistent
with those disclosed in Note 2, “Summary of Signicant Accounting
Policies.” Figures for segment prot (loss) are on an operating
income (loss) basis. Intersegment sales or transfers are based on
current market prices.
