PHIBRO ANIMAL HEALTH CORP Segments Disclosure
16. Business Segments
We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on the Animal Health, Mineral Nutrition and Performance Products reporting segments. The Chief Executive Officer is the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) for the Company. We evaluate performance of our segments based on Adjusted EBITDA. Included in the segment Adjusted EBITDA analyses provided to the CODM is information on segment cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. There are no other significant segment expense categories regularly provided to the CODM.
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus (a) interest expense, net, (b) provision for income taxes or less benefit for income taxes, (c) depreciation and amortization, (d) other non-operating expense or less other income, as separately reported on our consolidated statements of operations, including foreign currency (gains) losses, net and (e) certain items that we consider to be unusual, non-operational or non-recurring. However, some of these items may not be applicable to the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for our segments, as we do not typically include interest, other non-operating items, or income tax-related items in our segment results.
Certain of our costs and assets are not directly attributable to a segment or segments, and we refer to these items as Corporate. We do not allocate Corporate costs or assets to the other segments because they are not used to evaluate the segments’ operating results or financial position. Corporate costs include certain costs related to executive management, information technology, legal, finance, human resources and business development. The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies included in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards.
For all segments, the CODM uses segment Adjusted EBITDA in the annual budgeting and quarterly forecasting process and considers budget-to-actual and current period to prior period variances to evaluate performance and allocated resources for each segment.

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.
