Microsoft announced a change of reporting structure which it said would reflect its “strategy and ambitions to build best-in-class platforms and productivity services for a mobile-first, cloud-first world” – although its mobile activities have been lumped in with a number of other products.

From now on, mobile fits in to the ‘More Personal Computing’ segment, which also includes Windows operating system licensing revenue, gaming including Xbox consoles, and search, as well as Surface and phones hardware.

The company will have two other reporting segments.

The Productivity and Business Processes segment includes results from Office and Office 365 for commercial and consumer customers, as well as Dynamics and Dynamics CRM Online. And Intelligent Cloud includes results from public, private and hybrid server products and services, such as Windows Server, SQL Server, System Center, Azure and Enterprise Services.

Microsoft previously broke-out its results across categories such as Devices and Consumer Licensing, Computing and Gaming Hardware, Devices and Consumer Other, Commercial Licensing, Commercial Other, and with a separate category for Phone Hardware following its acquisition of Nokia’s devices business.

This meant that there was a split of many businesses across categories – for example Windows Phone fell into Devices & Consumer Licensing, the Surface tablet business sat in Computing and Gaming Hardware, while Lumia was in Phone Hardware. Likewise, Office 365 fell into both consumer and commercial categories.

Since his appointment last year, Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s CEO, has certainly been busy restructuring the company. This has included several significant rounds of job cuts (July 2015 and July 2014) and the end of phone hardware as a separate unit.

John Thompson, chairman of Microsoft, recently defended its acquisition of Nokia’s devices business, despite the company’s failure to benefit from the deal.
