Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] |
Note 10 – Segment reporting
The Company has three reportable segments: Products, Clinical
Services and Therapeutics. The Company’s Products segment develops, manufactures, and markets products to research and pharmaceutical
customers. The Clinical Services segment provides diagnostic services to the health care community. The Company’s Therapeutics
segment conducts research and development activities for therapeutic drug candidates. The Company evaluates segment performance
based on segment income (loss) before taxes. Costs excluded from segment income (loss) before taxes and reported as “Other”
consist of corporate general and administrative costs which are not allocable to the three reportable segments.
Legal fee expense incurred to defend the Company’s intellectual
property, which may result in settlements recognized in another segment and other general corporate matters are considered a component
of the Other segment. Legal fee expense specific to other segments’ activities have been allocated to those segments.
Legal settlements, net, represent activities for which royalties
would have been received in the Company’s Products segment and expenses related to an investigation within the Clinical Services
segment. Management of the Company assesses assets on a consolidated basis only and therefore, assets by reportable segment have
not been included in the reportable segments below. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described
in the summary of significant accounting policies.
The following financial information represents the operating
results of the reportable segments of the Company:
