As described in Note 2, Quanta’s operating units are organized into one of Quanta’s two internal divisions and, accordingly, the goodwill associated with its operating units has been aggregated on a divisional basis and reported in the table above. These divisions are closely aligned with Quanta’s reportable segments and are based on the predominant type of work performed by each operating unit. From time to time, operating units may be reorganized between these internal divisions as business environments evolve.
