The Company has realigned its reportable segments to reflect changes in how the Company manages its operations, specifically the level at which its chief operating decision maker ("CODM") regularly reviews operating results and allocates resources. As a result, the reportable segments changed from Technology & Equipment and Consumables to (i) Connected Technology Solutions, (ii) Essential Dental Solutions, (iii) Orthodontic and Implant Solutions, and (iv) Wellspect Healthcare.

Segment Performance

The Company’s four operating segments are organized primarily by product. They generally have overlapping geographical presence, customer bases, distribution channels, and regulatory oversight, with the exception of Wellspect Healthcare which has a more discreet market and regulatory environment specific to the industry for medical devices. These operating segments, which also form the Company’s reportable segments, are identified in accordance with how the Company’s chief operating decision-maker regularly reviews financial results and uses this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and allocate resources.

The Company evaluates performance of the segments based on net sales and adjusted operating income. Segment adjusted operating income is defined as operating income before income taxes and before certain corporate headquarters unallocated costs, goodwill and intangible asset impairments, restructuring and other costs, interest expense, net, other expense (income), net, amortization of intangible assets and depreciation resulting from the fair value step-up of property, plant, and equipment from acquisitions.
