GD Culture Group Ltd Segments Disclosure
Note 14 – Segment Reporting
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which improved the reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses enabling investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. ASU 2023-07 requires entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in ASU 2023-07 and all existing segment disclosures in Segment Reporting (Topic 280). ASU 2023-07 is effective for annual periods on January 1, 2024, and periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The Company adopted this standard for its 2024 annual financial statements and applied this standard retrospectively for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. ASU 2023-07 has no material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
The Company operates and manages its business as a single segment and has one operating and reportable segment, the Virtual Content Production. The Company’s is the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”). When making decisions about allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company as a whole, the CODM review operating metrics and consolidated financial statements.
The Company concluded that consolidated net income (loss) reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) is the measure of segment profitability, and consolidated total assets reported in the consolidated balance sheets is the measure of segment assets. The CODM refers to consolidated operating results and financial condition when addressing strategic and operational matters and allocating resources. Significant expense categories regularly provided to and reviewed by the CODM are those presented in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the United States, and substantially all of the Company’s expenses are derived from within the United States, no geographical segments are presented.

About Segments Disclosures
Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.
Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
