Snap-on's reportable business segments include: (i) the Snap-on Dealer Group; (ii) the Commercial and Industrial Group; (iii) the Diagnostics and Information Group; and (iv) Financial Services. The Snap-on Dealer Group consists of Snap-on's business operations serving the worldwide franchised dealer van channel. The Commercial and Industrial Group consists of the business operations providing tools and equipment products and equipment repair services to a broad range of industrial and commercial customers worldwide through direct, distributor and other non-franchised distribution channels. The Diagnostics and Information Group consists of the business operations providing diagnostics equipment, vehicle-service information, business management systems, and other solutions for vehicle service to customers in the worldwide vehicle service and repair marketplace. Financial Services became a business segment in fiscal 2004 as a result of the prospective adoption of FIN No. 46R, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (an interpretation of ARB No. 51)". Financial Services consists of the business operations of Snap-on Credit LLC ("SOC"), a consolidated 50%-owned joint venture between Snap-on and The CIT Group, Inc., and Snap-on's wholly owned finance subsidiaries in those international markets where Snap-on has dealer operations. See Notes 2 and 9 to the financial statements contained in Snap-on's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of SOC and the company's adoption of FIN No. 46R. Snap-on evaluates the performance of its operating segments based on segment revenues and operating earnings, exclusive of financing activities and income taxes. Segment revenues are defined as total revenues, including both external customer revenue and intersegment revenue. Segment operating earnings are defined as segment revenues less cost of goods sold and operating expenses, including restructuring costs. Snap-on accounts for intersegment sales and transfers based primarily on standard costs with reasonable mark-ups established between the segments. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets used in the respective reportable segment's operations. Intersegment amounts are eliminated to arrive at consolidated financial results. Due to recent changes in Snap-on's management organization structure, Snap-on realigned its business segments during the first quarter of fiscal 2005. The primary changes include the transfer of Snap-on's Technical Representative support organization from the Snap-on Dealer Group to the Diagnostics and Information Group and the segregation of Snap-on's general corporate expenses from the operating earnings of the business segments. Prior to fiscal 2005, shared services and general corporate expenses and corporate assets were allocated to the business segments based on segment revenues. Beginning in fiscal 2005, the business segments are charged only for those shared services utilized by the business segment based on an estimate of the value of services provided; general corporate expenses and corporate assets are not allocated to the business segments. Corporate assets consist principally of those assets that are centrally managed including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, debt, pension assets and income taxes, as well as corporate real estate and related assets. 2 As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," all future consolidated financial statements issued by Snap-on will reflect the reclassification of previously published segment data as a result of the above-mentioned changes in Snap-on's fiscal 2005 management organization structure. The information included in this Form 8-K affects only disclosures related to segment results and does not in any way restate or revise the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows in any previously reported Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Consolidated Balance Sheets or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of Snap-on. The accompanying quarterly and full-year segment information for fiscal 2004 and 2003 reflects the fiscal 2005 reportable business segment changes noted above. The restated quarterly and full-year fiscal 2003 segment disclosures do not include the Financial Services segment due to the prospective adoption of FIN No. 46R at the beginning of fiscal 2004. 3 SNAP-ON INCORPORATED Fiscal 2004 Segment Information (Amounts in millions) (unaudited) Three Months Ended ----------------------------------------------------------- Year Ended April 3, July 3, October 2, January 1, January 1, 2004 2004 2004 2005 2005 ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------ -------------- External revenue Snap-on Dealer Group $ 262.9 $ 261.1 $ 248.9 $ 247.7 $1,020.6 Commercial and Industrial Group 252.2 250.4 226.1 258.5 987.2 Diagnostics and Information Group 80.0 79.8 75.9 85.6 321.3 Financial Services 21.2 20.8 17.9 18.2 78.1 ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------ -------------- Total external revenue $ 616.3 $ 612.1 $ 568.8 $ 610.0 $2,407.2 ============= ============ ============= ============ ============== Intersegment revenue Snap-on Dealer Group $ -
