Segment Reporting | 14. Segment Reporting The Company has identified reportable segments that represent 10% or more of its net sales, EBITDA (as defined below) or total assets, or when the Company believes information about the segment would be useful to the readers of the financial statements.

EBITDA is the primary measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to evaluate segment operating performance.
