9. Segment Information

 

Beginning June 2011, as a result of the disposition of our Digital Business and our decision to sell the New Zealand Business as discussed in Note 14, we changed our reportable segments. The most significant of these changes is that the reportable segment previously referred to as the Worldwide Digital Business is no longer reported separately in our management reporting as the operations associated with the Domain Name Product Line and the Digital Business are reported as discontinued operations. Also, the intellectual property escrow services business, which we continue to own and operate and was previously reported in the Worldwide Digital Business segment, is now reported as a component of the North American Physical Business segment. Additionally, the International Physical Business segment no longer includes the New Zealand Business as these operations are reported as discontinued operations.

 

Our operating segments and Corporate are as follows:

 

·        North American Physical Business—throughout the United States and Canada, the storage of paper documents, as well as all other media such as microfilm and microfiche, master audio and videotapes, film, X-rays and blueprints, including healthcare information services, vital records services, service and courier operations, and the collection, handling and disposal of sensitive documents for corporate customers (“Hard Copy”); the storage and rotation of backup computer media as part of corporate disaster recovery plans, including service and courier operations (“Data Protection”); information destruction services (“Destruction”); the storage, assembly, and detailed reporting of customer marketing literature and delivery to sales offices, trade shows and prospective customers’ sites based on current and prospective customer orders (“Fulfillment”), and intellectual property escrow services that protect and manage source code.

 

·        Europe—information management services throughout Europe, including Hard Copy, Data Protection and Destruction (in the U.K. and Ireland).

 

·        Latin America—information management services throughout Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Peru, including Hard Copy, Data Protection and Destruction.

 

·        Asia Pacific—information management services throughout Australia, including Hard Copy, Data Protection and Destruction; and in certain cities in India, Singapore, Hong Kong-SAR and China, including Hard Copy and Data Protection.

 

·        Corporate—consists of costs related to executive and staff functions, including finance, human resources and information technology, which benefit the enterprise as a whole. These costs are primarily related to the general management of these functions on a corporate level and the design and development of programs, policies and procedures that are then implemented in the individual segments, with each segment bearing its own cost of implementation. Corporate also includes stock-based employee compensation expense associated with all Employee Stock-Based Awards.

 

The Latin America, Asia Pacific and Europe operating segments have been aggregated given their similar economic characteristics, products, customers and processes and reported as one reportable segment, “International Physical Business.”

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2. Adjusted OIBDA for each segment is defined as operating income before depreciation, amortization, goodwill impairment and (gain) loss on disposal/writedown of property, plant and equipment, net which are directly attributable to the segment. Internally, we use Adjusted OIBDA as the basis for evaluating the performance of, and allocating resources to, our operating segments.

 

A reconciliation of Adjusted OIBDA to income from continuing operations before provision for income taxes on a consolidated basis is as follows:
