TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY FOX, INC. | 2013 | FY | 3


NOTE 19. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has realigned its reporting segments following the Separation and the Other segment has been renamed; Other, Corporate and Eliminations. This segment includes costs not directly associated with an operating segment, such as corporate overhead and eliminations.

 

The Company is a diversified global media and entertainment company, which manages and reports its businesses in the following five segments:

 

The Company's operating segments have been determined in accordance with the Company's internal management structure, which is organized based on operating activities. The Company evaluates performance based upon several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Segment OIBDA.

 

Segment OIBDA is defined as revenues less operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Segment OIBDA does not include: depreciation and amortization, amortization of cable distribution investments, impairment and restructuring charges, equity earnings of affiliates, interest expense, net, interest income, other, net, income tax expense and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.  The Company believes that information about Segment OIBDA assists all users of the Company's consolidated financial statements by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the Company's portfolio of businesses separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results.

 

Total Segment OIBDA is a non-GAAP measure and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income (loss), cash flow and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. In addition, this measure does not reflect cash available to fund requirements and excludes items, such as depreciation and amortization and impairment and restructuring charges, which are significant components in assessing the Company's financial performance.

 

Management believes total Segment OIBDA is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of the Company's business. Segment OIBDA provides management, investors and equity analysts measures to analyze operating performance of the Company's business and its enterprise value against historical data and competitors' data, although historical results, including Segment OIBDA, may not be indicative of future results (as operating performance is highly contingent on many factors, including customer tastes and preferences)
