3. Segment Reporting

  1. SEGMENT REPORTING

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”), who is the Chief Executive Officer, utilizes segment adjusted operating profit for resource allocation across segments, particularly during the annual budgeting and forecasting processes. The CODM examines variances on a monthly basis to make informed decisions regarding capital and personnel distribution among segments. Additionally, the CODM employs segment gross profit for product pricing evaluation and uses segment adjusted operating profit to assess each segment’s performance by comparing results and return on assets against expected outcomes. The CODM does not review disaggregated assets by segment; therefore assets by segment is not provided.

The tables below present revenue, disaggregated by major source for each of our reportable segments, as well as, significant segment expenses, other segment expenses, operating income (loss), depreciation and amortization, regional and unallocated funeral and cemetery costs, and gross profit by segment as follows: (in thousands) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively:
