Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segments Segments
In January 2025, we combined our project management business with our Turner & Townsend majority-owned subsidiary and created a fourth reportable segment, Project Management. In addition, on January 16, 2025, we acquired full ownership of Industrious, a provider of premium flexible workplace solutions and established a new business segment, Building Operations & Experience, comprised of enterprise and local facilities management, property management and flexible workplace solutions.
In connection with the transactions described above, we reorganized our operations around and publicly report our financial results on four reportable segments – Advisory Services, Building Operations & Experience, Project Management and Real Estate Investments. We have recast prior period segment results to conform with the current presentation. In addition, we also have a “Corporate, other and eliminations” segment. Our Corporate segment primarily consists of corporate costs for leadership and certain other central functions. We track our strategic non-core equity investments in “other” which is considered an operating segment and reported together with Corporate as it does not meet the aggregation criteria for presentation as a separate reportable segment. These activities are not allocated to the other business segments. Corporate and other also includes eliminations related to inter-segment revenue.
Segment operating profit (SOP) is the measure reported to Robert Sulentic, CBRE’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who is our chief operating decision maker (CODM) for purposes of assessing performance and making decisions about allocating resources to each segment. The CODM uses SOP results compared to prior periods and previously forecasted amounts to assess performance and identify trends of ongoing operations within each segment. SOP excludes the impact of certain costs and charges that may obscure the underlying performance of our businesses and related trends, including restructuring charges and other costs incurred, which are outside the ordinary course of business. SOP represents earnings, inclusive of amounts attributable to non-controlling interests, before net interest expense, write-off of financing costs on extinguished debt, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and asset impairments. In addition, management excludes the following costs from SOP (Other segment adjustments):
integration and other costs related to acquisitions,
carried interest incentive compensation expense (reversal) to align with the timing of associated revenue,
charges related to indirect tax audits and settlements,
net results related to the wind-down of certain businesses,
the impact of fair value adjustments related to unconsolidated equity investments,
business and finance transformation,
costs associated with efficiency and cost-reduction initiatives, and
costs incurred related to legal entity restructuring.
There have been no significant changes to the measurement methods of expenses or methods of allocating expenses to segments during 2025.
Summarized financial information by segment is as follows (dollars in millions):
