I don't really know how to phrase this question, but what is 'segment operating income' on a quarterly earnings report for a company? I know what the segment bit is, but what is 'operating income'? Is it profit?

Operating income would be the money that comes in on which the company or segment operates...pays its bills, payroll, expenses, etc. The money might come from sales or other revenue, or it might be allocated from the budget of the company.The monet that's left in operating income at the end of an accounting period could be said to be the net profit of that segment for that period.
