Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segments

Segments

Operations for Energizer are managed via two major geographic reportable segments: Americas and International. Prior to January 1, 2018, the International segment was reported as two separate geographic reportable segments: Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific. The Company changed its reporting structure to reflect how the Company is managing the operations as well as what the chief operating decision maker is reviewing to make organizational decisions about resource allocation. The prior period segment information has been recast to reflect the current reportable segment structure of the Company.

Segment performance is evaluated based on segment operating profit, exclusive of general corporate expenses, share-based compensation costs, acquisition and integration activities, amortization costs, research & development costs and other items determined to be corporate in nature. Financial items, such as interest income and expense, are managed on a global basis at the corporate level. The exclusion of substantially all acquisition and integration costs from segment results reflects management’s view on how it evaluates segment performance.

Energizer’s operating model includes a combination of standalone and shared business functions between the geographic segments, varying by country and region of the world. Shared functions include, but are not limited to, IT, procurement and finance. Energizer applies a fully allocated cost basis, in which shared business functions are allocated between segments. Such allocations are estimates, and do not represent the costs of such services if performed on a standalone basis.
