Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment information | 14. Segment information The Company has the following four operating and reportable segments: Americas Materials Solutions; Americas Building Solutions; Europe Materials Solutions; and Europe Building Solutions. The Americas Materials Solutions segment provides solutions for the construction and maintenance of public infrastructure, commercial and residential buildings in North America. The primary materials produced by this segment include aggregates, cement, readymixed concrete and asphalt. This segment also provides paving and construction services for customers. The Americas Building Solutions segment manufactures, supplies and delivers solutions for the built environment in communities across North America. Our subsidiaries within this segment offer building and infrastructure solutions serving complex critical utility infrastructure (such as water, energy, transportation and telecommunications projects) and outdoor living solutions for enhancing private and public spaces. The Europe Materials Solutions segment provides solutions for the construction of public infrastructure, commercial and residential buildings to customers in construction markets primarily in Europe. The primary materials produced in this segment include aggregates, cement, readymixed concrete, asphalt and concrete products. The Europe Building Solutions segment combines materials, products and services to produce a wide range of architectural and infrastructural solutions for use in the building and renovation of critical utility infrastructure, commercial and residential buildings, and outdoor living spaces. This business serves the growing demand across the construction value chain for innovative and value-added products and services. The Company’s reportable segments are the same as the Company’s operating segments and correspond with how the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) regularly reviews financial information to allocate resources and assess performance under the Company’s organizational structure. The CODM monitors the operating results of segments separately in order to allocate resources between segments and to assess performance. Segment performance is evaluated using Adjusted EBITDA. Given that Interest expense and Income tax expense are managed on a centralized basis, these items are not allocated between operating segments for the purposes of the information presented to the CODM and are accordingly omitted from the detailed segmental analysis below. There are no asymmetrical allocations to reporting segments which would require disclosure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, loss on impairments, gain/loss on divestitures and unrealized gain/loss on investments, income/loss from equity method investments, substantial acquisition-related costs and pension expense/income excluding current service cost component. The key performance measures for the Company’s reportable segments were:
