NOTE 10. SEGMENT REPORTING

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company determined that its Portable Storage business segment met the criteria for separate recognition as defined in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The guidance under this topic requires a public business entity to evaluate both quantitative and qualitative thresholds to determine the significance of a business segment and whether the separate reporting of a business segment enhances the users' understanding of the reporting entity's performance, future net cash flows and judgments. The Company evaluated the guidance within Topic 280 and made its determination to separately report the Portable Storage segment primarily due to the Company's continued growth in container fleet purchases and related increased revenues and improved profitability performance when compared to previously reported periods. In addition to this determination, the Company also divested its Adler Tanks business segment during the year ended December 31, 2023. Additional information regarding the divestiture of Adler Tanks can be found in Note 5 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.

At September 30, 2024, the Company was comprised of four reportable segments: (1) its modular building segment (“Mobile Modular”); (2) its portable storage container segment ("Portable Storage"); (3) its electronic test equipment segment (“TRS-RenTelco”); and (4) its classroom manufacturing segment selling modular buildings used primarily as classrooms in California (“Enviroplex”). The operations of each of these segments are described in Part I – Item 1, “Business,” and the accounting policies of the segments are described in “Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report. Management focuses on several key measures to evaluate and assess each segment’s performance, including rental revenue growth, gross profit and gross margins, income from operations and income before provision for income taxes. Excluding interest expense, allocations of revenue and expense not directly associated with one of these segments are generally allocated to Mobile Modular, Portable Storage and TRS-RenTelco based on their pro-rata share of direct revenues. Interest expense is allocated amongst Mobile Modular, Portable Storage and TRS-RenTelco based on their pro-rata share of average rental equipment at cost, intangible assets, accounts receivable, deferred income and customer security deposits. During the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined that transaction costs incurred by the Company attributed to the terminated Merger Agreement with WillScot Mobile Mini were significant and required separate presentation. For the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has reported the terminated Merger Agreement transaction costs in the Corporate segment and excluded such costs from Selling and administrative expenses. The Company does not report total assets by business segment. Summarized financial information for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 for the Company’s reportable segments are shown in the following table:

1.
Gross Enviroplex sales revenues were $30,593 and $16,401 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were $2 and $218 of inter-segment sales to Mobile Modular in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which required elimination in consolidation.
2.
Utilization is calculated each month by dividing the cost of rental equipment on rent by the total cost of rental equipment, excluding accessory equipment, and new equipment inventory. The Average utilization for the period is calculated using the average costs of rental equipment.
3.
During the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company received $180 million in cash proceeds attributed to the mutual decision to terminate the Merger Agreement. These proceeds are reported as non-operating income on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and are reported in the Company's Corporate segment.
4.
During the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company determined that transaction costs incurred by the Company attributed to the terminated Merger Agreement were significant. Due to this determination, the Company has separately reported these transaction costs in the Company's Corporate segment and excluded such costs from Selling and administrative expenses. The total transaction costs excluded from Selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and the three months ended March 31, 2024, for Mobile Modular, Portable Storage and TRS-RenTelco was $15.5 million, $2.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively, and $6.5 million, $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Revenues from foreign country customers accounted for 2% and 3% of the Company’s total revenues for the same periods, respectively.
