Segment Reporting [Abstract] |
BUSINESS SEGMENTS | BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company’s business is classified into six reportable operating segments: the Capital Markets segment, Wealth Management segment, Auction and Liquidation segment, Financial Consulting segment, Communications segment, and Consumer segment. These reportable segments are all distinct businesses, each with a different marketing strategy and management structure. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company realigned its segment reporting structure to reflect organizational changes from recent acquisitions and the manner in which capital is allocated. The Consumer segment includes the previously reported Brands segment and Targus, which the Company acquired in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company has also re-aligned its previously reported Principal Investments - Communications and Other segment into the Communications segment and the All Other category that is reported with Corporate and Other below. The following is a summary of certain financial data for each of the Company’s reportable segments:
