Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
SEGMENT INFORMATION | SEGMENT INFORMATION Beginning January 1, 2024, we reorganized our operating segment structure to better represent the revised structure within our portfolio transformation, including a greater focus on our strong value creating small domestic appliance business. The Company implemented this change to align with the Company's new operating structure, consistent with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates operational performance and allocates resources in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. Our reportable segments consist of Major Domestic Appliances ("MDA") North America; MDA Europe, MDA Latin America; MDA Asia; and Small Domestic Appliances ("SDA") Global. All prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The MDA Europe business was deconsolidated upon the completion of the European contribution agreement transaction with Arcelik as of April 1, 2024. For additional information see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The chief operating decision maker (CODM), who is the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, evaluates operational performance based on each segment's earnings (loss) before interest and taxes (EBIT). We define EBIT as operating profit less interest and sundry (income) expense and excluding restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items, if any, that management believes are not indicative of the region's ongoing performance. Cost of products sold is the significant expense regularly reviewed by the CODM and consists of costs associated with products sold, including but not limited to materials, labor, freight and warehousing. Other segment expenses/ (income) primarily include selling, general and administrative items. Total assets by segment are those assets directly associated with the respective operating activities. The "Other/Eliminations" column primarily includes corporate expenses, assets and eliminations, as well as restructuring costs, asset impairment charges and certain other items that management believes are not indicative of the segment's ongoing performance. Intersegment sales are eliminated within each segment. The table below summarizes performance by operating segment for the periods presented:
