NOTE 15—SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s reportable segments are based on the following product and services business units:

    Client Solutions
    Enterprise Solutions Group (“ESG”)

- F-56 -

DENALI HOLDING INC.

NOTES TO AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

    Dell Software Group (“DSG”)
    Dell Services

In the first quarter of the fiscal year ended January 29, 2016, Denali redefined the categories within Client Solutions and ESG to reflect the way the Company currently organizes products and services within these business units. None of these changes impacted the Company’s consolidated or total business unit results. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Client Solutions includes sales to commercial and consumer customers of desktops, thin client products, notebooks, and services and third-party software and peripherals closely tied to the sale of Client Solutions hardware. ESG includes servers, networking, and storage, as well as services and third-party software and peripherals that are closely tied to the sale of ESG hardware. DSG includes systems management, security software solutions, and information management software offerings. Dell Services includes a broad range of IT and business services, including infrastructure, cloud, applications, and business process services.

The reportable segments disclosed herein are based on information reviewed by the Company’s management to evaluate the business segment results. The Company’s measure of segment operating income for management reporting purposes excludes the impact of purchase accounting, amortization of intangible assets, unallocated corporate expenses, severance and facility action costs, acquisition-related charges, and costs related to the going-private transaction. See Note 3 of the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the going-private transaction. The Company does not allocate assets to the above reportable segments for internal reporting purposes.
