Capital IQ: Go to Capital IQ and search for the company name in the search menu at the top. Click on the appropiate company from the result list, and in the Financials/Valuation section of the left-hand menu, select “Segments”. To retrieve a graph, click on the icon in the Fiscal Period column.

Orbis: Go to Orbis and enter the company name for which you want to retrieve geographic segment data in the “Find a Company” search box. Click on the appropriate company from the results list to access the company summary. Check the left-hand navigation menu for “Financials for listed companies” and click on “Segment Data – Geographic Segments” to obtain the revenue and assets broken down by geographic regions. Please note that financial data can go back as long as 20 years if available.
