Segments | Note 15—Segments The Company operates its business along three operating segments, which are grouped on the basis of geography: North America, Europe and Asia. The Company believes this method of segment reporting reflects both the way its business segments are managed and the way the performance of each segment is evaluated. The three segments consist of similar operating activities as each segment produces similar products. Generally, the Company evaluates performance based on stand-alone segment net income (loss) before income taxes, interest, depreciation, amortization, restructuring, transaction and other costs related to acquisitions (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and accounts for inter-segment sales and transfers, which were not material, as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, at current market prices.
