Item 8.01 Other Events.
During the second quarter of 2021, the Company updated its reporting segments to better align with its strategic growth initiatives in light of recent and pending acquisitions. The growth and diversification achieved through the Company's recent and pending acquisitions has resulted in a change in the way the Company's chief operating decision maker makes operating decisions, assesses the performance of the business and allocates resources. As a result, the Company realigned its operating segments and determined it had two reportable segments: East and West. The Company conducts its business through these reportable segments and reports revenue and operating expenses associated with these reportable segments in its consolidated statements of operations.
The East reportable segment includes
The West reportable segment includes
The "Other" category includes the immaterial operating segments of SportCaller,
Monkey Knife Fight,
The main key performance indicator used in managing the Company's business and evaluating segment performance is adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings for the Company, or where noted its reporting segments, before, in each case, interest expense, net of interest income, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-operating income, acquisition, integration and restructuring expense, share-based compensation, and certain other gains or losses, as well as, when presented for reporting segments, an adjustment related to the allocation of corporate cost among segments. The changes in the reportable segment structure discussed above affect only the manner in which the Company's reportable segments were previously reported.
Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K provides a summary of the Company's
segment operating results and Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended
