PERDOCEO EDUCATION Corp Segments Disclosure
17. SEGMENT REPORTING
Our segments are determined in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 280—Segment Reporting and are based on how the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") evaluates performance and allocates resources. Perdoceo's CODM as defined under ASC Topic 280 is its President and Chief Executive Officer. Each segment is comprised of an accredited postsecondary education institution that offers a variety of academic programs.
Our three reporting segments are described below.
We evaluate segment performance based on operating results. Specifically, our CODM analyzes segment revenue and operating expenses which are directly attributable to the cost to serve and educate prospective students, when making decisions to allocate resources based on segment performance. Adjustments to reconcile segment results to consolidated results are included under the caption “Corporate and Other,” which primarily includes unallocated corporate activity. Substantially all revenue earned by our reporting segments are generated in the United States of America (“U.S.”) and segment and total assets are substantially held in the
U.S. Additionally, interest, net and other miscellaneous income (expense) are not material by segment and are not reviewed by our CODM by 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.
