3.1Segment performance
Segment information is based on the Group’s organization and management structure and internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision Maker up to the level of EBIT. The Chief Operating Decision Maker at Rieter is the Chief Executive Officer. Segment reporting is based on the same accounting policies as those used for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Group consists of three reportable segments: Machines & Systems, Components, and After Sales. There is no aggregation of operating segments. Rieter Machines & Systems develops, produces and distributes machinery and systems used to convert natural and man-made fibers and their blends into yarns. Rieter Components supplies precision winding machines and technology components to spinning mills and textile machinery manufacturers. Rieter After Sales serves customers with spare parts, value-adding after sales services and solutions over the entire product life cycle.
