Segment Information

5. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), and are aligned to the geographical hubs that the Company operates in: Americas; Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia Pacific ("APAC").

Additionally, the Company has Corporate / Other revenue and expenses, which primarily consists of non-core activities and other administrative costs that are not charged to the operating segments. The CODM uses the measure of adjusted EBITDA to assess operating segments’ performance to make decisions regarding the allocation of resources.

The adjustments to EBITDA relate to foreign exchange gains and losses and other non-recurring acquisition-related expenses.

As a result of the July 2024 IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) agenda decision that clarified certain IFRS 8 – Operating Segments disclosure requirements, the Company has additionally disclosed Cost of sales by segment starting with the year ended September 30, 2025. The segment information for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025 has been conformed to the current period presentation.

Assets and liabilities are neither reported nor reviewed by the CODM at the operating segment level.
