| Segmented Information | Note 22 - Segmented Information We review our operating results, assess our performance, make decisions about resources, and generate discrete financial information at the single enterprise level. Accordingly, we have determined that we operate in one reportable business segment providing logistics technology solutions. The Company has determined that it has a chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) comprised of the Company’s chief executive officer and president & chief operating officer. The CODM assesses performance for the Company and makes operating decisions based on consolidated net income and Adjusted EBITDA. The term “Adjusted EBITDA” refers to a financial measure that we define as earnings before certain charges that management considers to be non-operating expenses and which consist of interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation (for which we include related fees and taxes) and other charges (for which we include restructuring charges, acquisition-related expenses, and contingent consideration incurred due to better-than-expected performance from acquisitions). Management considers these non-operating expenses to be outside the scope of Descartes’ ongoing operations and the related expenses are not used by management to measure operations. Accordingly, these expenses are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, which we reference to both measure our operations and as a basis of comparison of our operations from period-to-period. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The CODM uses net income and Adjusted EBITDA to assess overall performance of the Company and to evaluate whether to reinvest profits or invest in acquisitions. Asset information is not regularly provided to the CODM and as such the CODM does not make decisions based on assets. The following table provides a breakdown of the measures of profit regularly provided to the CODM:
Other segment items includes travel expenses, reseller fees, contractors, corporate cars, bad debt expense, occupancy, insurance, marketing, employee administrative costs, professional fees, board of director fees, foreign exchange gains and losses, and other expenses.
