Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Our CODM uses segment operating earnings as the profit measure in evaluating segment performance during the annual plan and forecasting process and in monitoring actual performance versus plan. Segment operating earnings are comprised of earnings before interest, taxes and costs associated with restructuring activities, cost savings and optimization initiatives, impairment charges, accelerated amortization and corporate expenses. Unrealized gains and losses on outstanding undesignated commodity hedging activities are excluded from segment operating earnings and are recorded in Corporate as these open positions represent hedges of future purchases. Upon closing of the contracts, the realized gain or loss is transferred to segment operating earnings, which allows the segments to reflect the economic effects of the hedge without exposure to quarterly volatility of unrealized gains and losses. Only the service cost component of pension and postretirement expense is allocated to segments. All other components of expense, including interest cost, expected return on assets, amortization of prior service credits and recognized actuarial gains and losses are reflected in Corporate and not included in segment operating results. Asset information by segment is not discretely maintained for internal reporting or used in evaluating performance by the CODM. Our largest customer, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. and its affiliates, accounted for approximately 21% of consolidated net sales in 2025 and 22% in 2024 and 2023. Both of our reportable segments sold products to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. or its affiliates.
