(15)    Segment Information

ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), in determining how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s CODM evaluates results using the operating segment structure as the primary basis for which the allocation of resources and financial results are assessed.

The Company has organized its business into two segments: Content & Platform (formerly referred to as Skillsoft content) and Instructor-Led Training (formerly referred to as Global Knowledge). All of the Company’s segments market and sell their offerings globally to businesses of many sizes, government agencies, educational institutions and resellers with a worldwide sales force positioned to offer the combinations that best meet customer needs. The CODM primarily uses revenues and operating income as measures to evaluate financial results and allocation of resources. The Company allocates certain operating expenses to the reportable segments, including general and administrative costs based on the usage and relative contribution provided to the segments. There are no intercompany revenue transactions reported between the Company’s reportable segments.

The Content & Platform business engages in the sale, marketing and delivery of its content learning solutions, in areas such as Leadership and Business, Technology and Developer and Compliance. This includes individualized coaching as well as technical skill areas assumed in the Codecademy acquisition. In addition, Content & Platform offers Percipio, an intelligent artificial intelligence ("AI")-driven online learning platform that delivers an immersive learning experience through software as a service ("SaaS") solutions. It leverages its highly engaging content, curated into nearly 700 learning paths (channels) that are continuously updated to ensure customers always have access to the latest information.

The Instructor-Led Training business offers training solutions covering information technology and business skills for corporations and their employees. Instructor-Led Training guides its customers throughout their lifelong technology learning journey by offering relevant and up-to-date skills training through instructor-led (in-person “classroom” or online “virtual”) and self-paced (“on-demand”), vendor certified, and other proprietary offerings. Instructor-Led Training offers a wide breadth of training topics and delivery modalities both on a transactional and subscription basis.
