The Company&amp;#146;s reportable&#13;business segments consist of: (1) United States; (2) Canada and (3) Europe. As described below, the activities of the Company&amp;#146;s&#13;Asian operations are closely linked to those of the U.S. operations; accordingly, management reviews the financial results of both&#13;on a consolidated basis, and the results of the Asian operations have been aggregated with the results of the United States operations&#13;to form one reportable segment called the &amp;#147;United States segment&amp;#148; or &amp;#147;U.S. segment&amp;#148;. Each reportable segment&#13;derives its revenue from the sales of cutting devices, measuring instruments and first aid products for school, office, home, hardware,&#13;sporting and industrial markets.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Domestic sales orders are filled from the Company&amp;#146;s distribution&#13;center in North Carolina.

These sales are completed by delivering&#13;product to the customers&amp;#146; common carriers at shipping points in Asia. Direct import sales are made in larger quantities than&#13;domestic sales, typically full containers. Direct import sales represented approximately 27% and 20% of the Company&amp;#146;s total&#13;net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to 26% and 20% for the comparable periods in 2014.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;The chief operating decision maker evaluates the performance of&#13;each operating segment based on segment revenues and operating income.

The property&#13;consisted of approximately four acres of land and 48,000 sq. feet of warehouse space. The property was the site of the Company&amp;#146;s&#13;original scissor factory which opened in 1887 and was closed in 1996.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Under the terms of the sale agreement, and as required by the Connecticut&#13;Transfer Act, the Company was required to remediate any environmental contamination on the property. During 2008, the Company hired&#13;an independent environmental consulting firm to conduct environmental studies in order to identify the extent of the environmental&#13;contamination on the property and to develop a remediation plan. As a result of those studies and the estimates prepared by the&#13;independent environmental consulting firm, the Company recorded an undiscounted liability of approximately $1.8 million related&#13;to the remediation of the property. This accrual included the costs of required investigation, remedial activities, and post-remediation&#13;operating and maintenance.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Remediation work on the project began in the third quarter of 2009&#13;and was completed during the third quarter of 2012. In addition to the completed remediation work, the Company, with the assistance&#13;of its independent environmental consulting firm, was required to monitor contaminant levels on the property to ensure they comply&#13;with applicable governmental standards. During the first quarter of 2015, the Company received notice from the Connecticut Department&#13;of Energy &amp;#38; Environmental Protection that it had accepted and approved the Company&amp;#146;s filing of its Form III Verification&#13;Report. As a result, the Company&amp;#146;s remediation obligations have been satisfied.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;On April 7, 2014, the Company sold its Fremont,&#13;NC distribution facility for $850,000 in cash. The facility originally served as a manufacturing site for the Company&amp;#146;s scissors&#13;and rulers. Under the terms of the sale agreement, the Company is responsible to remediate any environmental contamination on the&#13;property. The Company hired an independent environmental consulting firm to conduct environmental studies in order to identify&#13;the extent of the environmental contamination on the property and to develop a remediation plan. As a result of those studies and&#13;the estimates prepared by the independent environmental consulting firm, and in conjunction with the sale of the property, the&#13;Company recorded a liability of $300,000 in the second quarter of 2014, related to the remediation of the property. The accrual&#13;included the total of then estimated costs of remedial activities and post-remediation monitoring costs.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin-top: 0; margin-right: 0; margin-bottom: 0pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Remediation work on the project began in the&#13;third quarter of 2014 and is expected to be completed in 2015. In addition to the remediation work, the Company, with the assistance&#13;of its independent environmental consulting firm, must continue to monitor contaminant levels on the property to ensure they comply&#13;with applicable North Carolina laws and regulations. The Company expects that the monitoring period will last a period of five&#13;years after the completion of the remediation and be completed by the end of 2020.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;&#13;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;
