Segment Reporting

During the first quarter of 2015, the Company recast its segment reporting to include two reportable segments, U.S. and International, which reflects changes made in how the Company manages its business, reviews operating performance and allocates resources. The U.S. segment includes all brands operating in the U.S. while brands operating outside the U.S. are included in the International segment. All prior period information was recast to reflect this change.

The Company’s reporting segments are organized based on restaurant concept and geographic location. Resources are allocated and performance is assessed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, whom the Company has determined to be its Chief Operating Decision Maker. Following is a summary of reporting segments as of December 27, 2015:
