BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company reports results under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The Company’s reportable segments for the year ended December 31, 2016 are U.S. Regions, U.S. Federal, Canada and Small-Scale Infrastructure. The Company’s U.S. Regions, U.S. Federal and Canada segments offer energy efficiency products and services which include the design, engineering and installation of equipment and other measures to improve the efficiency and control the operation of a facility’s energy infrastructure, renewable energy solutions and services which include the construction of small-scale plants for customers that produce electricity, gas, heat or cooling from renewable sources of energy and O&M services. The Company’s Small-Scale Infrastructure segment sells electricity, processed landfill gas (“LFG”), heat or cooling, produced from renewable sources of energy, from small-scale plants that the Company owns and the construction of small-scale plants for customers. The Company’s Small-Scale Infrastructure segment also now includes certain small-scale plants developed for customers previously included in our U.S. Regions segment. Previously reported amounts have been restated for comparative purposes.The “All Other” category offers enterprise energy management services, consulting services and the sale of solar PV energy products and systems which we refer to as integrated-PV. These segments do not include results of other activities, such as corporate operating expenses not specifically allocated to the segments. Certain reportable segments are an aggregation of operating segments. For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 unallocated corporate expenses were $32,181, $25,671 and $27,621, respectively. The accounting policies are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company reserved for certain assets in its Canada segment totaling $1,934 due to collectability concerns as a result of its previously disclosed restructuring efforts. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company included in unallocated corporate activity $2,870 as a reserve for amounts payable from a customer who declared bankruptcy.
For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 more than 75% of the Company’s revenues have been derived from federal, state, provincial or local government entities, including public housing authorities and public universities. The U.S. federal government, which is considered a single customer for reporting purposes, constituted 27.3%, 20.2% and 17.9% of the Company’s consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Revenues from the U.S. federal government are included in the Company’s U.S. Federal segment.
The reports of the Company’s chief operating decision maker do not include assets at the operating segment level.
