Adjusted EBITDA for each segment is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, net, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and also excludes certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results, specifically: (1) (gain) loss on disposal/write-down of property, plant and equipment, net (including real estate); (2) intangible impairments; (3) other expense (income), net (which includes foreign currency transaction (gains) losses, net, and debt extinguishment expense); (4) Significant Acquisition Costs; (5) Restructuring Charges (as defined in Note 10); and (6) COVID-19 Costs (as defined below). Internally, we use Adjusted EBITDA as the basis for evaluating the performance of, and allocating resources to, our operating segments.

A reconciliation of Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 is as follows:
