8. Segments

Effective January 1, 2023, we revised our segment structure to align with changes in how our CODM manages the business, assesses performance and allocates resources. The prior period segment disclosures reflect the revised presentation.

Our operating and reportable segments consist of the following:

•The U.S. Refreshment Beverages segment reflects sales in the U.S. from the manufacture and distribution of branded concentrates, syrup, and finished beverages, including the sales of our own brands and third-party brands, to third-party bottlers, distributors, and retailers.

•The U.S. Coffee segment reflects sales in the U.S. from the manufacture and distribution of finished goods relating to our K-Cup pods, single serve brewers and accessories, and other coffee products to partners, retailers, and directly to consumers through the Keurig.com website.

•The International segment reflects sales in international markets, including the following:

◦Sales in Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and other international markets from the manufacture and distribution of branded concentrates, syrup, and finished beverages, including sales of our own brands and third-party brands, to third-party bottlers, distributors, and retailers.

◦Sales in Canada from the manufacture and distribution of finished goods relating to our single serve brewers, K-Cup pods, and other coffee products.

Segment results are based on management reports provided to the CODM, which is Tim Cofer, our CEO. Net sales and income from operations are the significant financial measures used to assess the operating performance of KDP's operating segments. The CODM periodically monitors our actual results and remaining forecast versus our annual budget for these financial measures, and this information is used to assess performance of the reportable segments, determine the payout of short-term incentive plan compensation, and to establish management’s base salaries.

Intersegment sales are recorded at cost and are eliminated in the Consolidated Statements of Income. We have not provided disclosures of intersegment sales or total assets for each reportable segment, as our CODM does not review and is not provided with this information. “Other segment expense (income)” includes Other operating expense (income), net, as well as other financial statement captions for infrequent charges, such as impairment of goodwill or intangible assets, used to arrive at “Income from operations - reportable segments”. “Unallocated corporate costs” are excluded from our measurement of segment performance and include unrealized commodity derivative gains and losses and certain general corporate expenses.

Information about our operations and significant expenses by reportable segment is as follows:

MAJOR CUSTOMER

Walmart is considered a major customer, accounting for more than 10% of our total net sales, and is represented in all three of our reportable segments. The following table provides our net sales to Walmart:

Additionally, customers in our U.S. Refreshment Beverages and International segments buy concentrate from KDP, which is used in finished goods sold by our third party bottlers to Walmart. These indirect sales further increase the concentration of risk associated with our consolidated net sales as it relates to Walmart.
