Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT REPORTING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SEGMENT REPORTING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
The Company's portfolio of brands is organized into five operating segments. The Company determined its operating segments based on how its chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is the Chief Executive Officer and President, manages the business, makes operating decisions, and evaluates operating performance. The operating segments are aggregated into one reportable segment based on the similarity in economic characteristics, other qualitative factors, and the objectives and principles of ASC 280, Segment Reporting.
The CODM reviews revenues and an adjusted measure of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization less additions to property and equipment ("Adjusted EBITDA less Capex") for each operating segment. The following table presents information for the Company's reportable segment. Other segment items include operating expenses such as general and administrative and information technology. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for additional information on these expenses.
