Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
Segment Information | Segment Information As discussed in Note 1 “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company reports results in three operating and reportable segments, CSB, Commercial, and Solar based on the manner in which the CODM evaluates performance and makes decisions about how to allocate resources. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA, which is the segment profit measure, to evaluate segment performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss adjusted for (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets; (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions; (v) share-based compensation expense; (vi) merger, restructuring, integration, and other; (vii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (viii) radio conversion costs, net; and (ix) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as impairment charges, financing and consent fees, or acquisition-related adjustments. The CODM does not review the Company's assets by segment; therefore, such information is not presented. The following table presents total revenue by segment and a reconciliation to consolidated total revenue:
