NOTE 9. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has two operating segments: (1) Broadcasting and (2) Digital, which both qualify as reportable segments. In accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” the operating segments reflect how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is our Chief Executive Officer, assesses the performance of each operating segment and determines the appropriate allocations of resources to each segment. The Company continually reviews its operating segment classifications to align with operational changes in our business and may make changes as necessary. The Company evaluates performance based upon several factors, of which the primary financial measure is Segment Adjusted EBITDA.
Due to the integrated nature of these operating segments, estimates and judgments are made in allocating certain assets, revenues and expenses.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as segment revenues less segment cost of revenues and segment general and administrative expenses and excludes depreciation, interest, net, asset impairment, unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities, other corporate matters, other, net and income tax expense. Other corporate matters represent certain litigation expenses, and related fees, for specific proceedings that the Company has determined are infrequent and unusual in terms of their magnitude.
Segment Adjusted EBITDA is used by our CODM for evaluating the operating performance of the Company’s business segments to evaluate the performance of and allocate resources. The Company does not present asset information for its segments as this financial information is not used by the CODM to allocate resources.

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.
