Segment
Information
Segment
information has been considered in accordance with the
accounting standards. GAAP suggests using a management
approach based on the way that management organizes the
segments within the enterprise for making operating decisions
and assessing performance. The Trust鈥檚 management views
its operations as one segment and believes the only
significant activity is managing the land, which was conveyed
to the Trust in 1888. Managing the land includes sales and
leases of such land, and the retention of oil and gas
royalties.聽聽The cost structure of the Trust is
centralized and not segmented.
