16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

Our business operations (being the development, manufacture and sale of products that improve the health and productivity of dairy and beef cattle) are described in Note 1, "The Company and Nature of Operations". Our chief operating decision-maker (CODM), our President and CEO, regularly evaluates two operating segments: i) Scours and ii) Mastitis for purposes of deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our CODM primarily evaluates performance based on product sales as well as net operating income (loss). No operating segments have been aggregated; therefore, our two operating segments are the Company's two reportable segments. 

 

Scours segment - consists of the First Defense® product line. The core technology underlying the Scours segment is focused on polyclonal antibodies.

 

Mastitis segment - includes our CMT product line, consisting of reagents and equipment used for rapid cow-side testing to identify mastitic quarters by detecting elevated somatic cell counts. This segment also includes our Re-Tain® product in development for the treatment of subclinical mastitis based on the bacteriocin nisin. On December 23, 2025, we made the decision to cease our focus on obtaining FDA approval of Re-Tain® and instead continue the stability and investigational testing related to Re-Tain®

 

Other - includes unallocated administrative and overhead expenses and other products.

 

The revenues and expenses allocated to each segment are in some cases direct and in other cases involve reasonable and consistent estimations by management. The significant accounting policies of these segments are the same as those described in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates and Significant Accounting Policies".

About Segments Disclosures

Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.

Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
