(1)
Direct expenses in both operating segments represent costs directly incurred in generating revenues, including editorial and consulting costs, third-party and advertising spend, freelance contractor expenses, website hosting and other direct IT costs, sales commissions, event and venue expenses, directly attributable travel and related costs, and bad debt provisions.
(2)
Indirect expenses in both operating segments reflect costs not directly attributable to revenue generation. These consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related costs, office and facility expenses and related overheads, accounting, legal and other professional fees, and product development expenditures. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, indirect expenses include depreciation and amortization expense of $0.3 million in the B2D segment, and $0.1 million in the I&A segment. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, indirect expenses include depreciation and amortization expense of $0.3 million in the B2D segment and $0.2 million in the I&A segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, indirect expenses include depreciation and amortization expense of $1.1 million in the B2D segment, and $0.1 million in the I&A segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, indirect expenses include depreciation and amortization expense of $0.6 million in the B2D segment and $0.4 million in the I&A segment. The Brand to Demand indirect expenses previously reported for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 were understated by $1.8 million and $5.5 million respectively, and therefore the segment operating income was overstated by those amounts in those periods. The unallocated indirect expenses previously reported for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 were overstated by $1.8 million and $5.5 million respectively. These immaterial errors have been corrected for the six months ended June 30,2026 and June 30, 2025.
