4. Segment Information

The Company is organized geographically into three operating segments: i) Americas and Asia-Pacific, ii) United Kingdom and Ireland, and iii) Continental Europe. The Company’s reporting unit results are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The CODM is our Chief Executive Officer, who assesses the Company’s performance and allocates resources.

The CODM evaluates the Company’s performance and allocates resources primarily based on adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for transaction and integration costs, restructuring costs and other, regulatory matter and litigation expense, net loss on divestiture of business, and unrealized gain/loss on foreign currency contracts (“Adjusted EBITDA”). The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA to communicate performance targets to the segment managers, allocate resources to the segments, and to monitor segment performance. Additionally, the CODM considers the performance of this measure against planned and forecasted amounts to make investing and resource allocation decisions. The actual results are used in assessing performance of the Company and in establishing management’s compensation.

For disclosure purposes, we aggregate these three operating segments into one reportable segment due to the similar nature of their operations and economic characteristics.

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.
