Segment Reporting

The Company manages its business primarily on a geographic basis, with three reportable segments: the Hudson regional businesses of Americas, Asia Pacific, and EMEA. The reportable segments are consistent with management's approach to segment reporting used by the Global Chief Executive Officer of Hudson Global Inc. and the Global Chief Executive Officer of Hudson RPO, who both serve as the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, to assess segment performance and allocate resources. The Americas segment includes the United States and Canada. The EMEA segment includes the United Kingdom and countries across Continental Europe and the United Arab Emirates, while the Asia Pacific segment comprises Australia, New Zealand, and other countries in Asia. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using an EBITDA metric which is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. In addition, certain corporate-related costs are not allocated to the segments. Each reportable segment generates its revenue through RPO services, consisting of recruitment and contracting solutions tailored to the individual needs of primarily mid-to-large-cap multinational companies.

Corporate expenses are reported separately for the three reportable segments and pertain to certain functions, such as executive management, corporate governance, investor relations, legal, accounting, tax, and treasury. A portion of these expenses are attributed to the reportable segments for providing the above services to them, and have been allocated to the segments as management service expenses, and are included in the segments’ non-operating other income (expense). We have disclosed for each reportable segment the significant expense that are reviewed by CODM in the tables below with no additional significant expenses beyond those presented. Segment information is presented in accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting.” This standard is based on a management approach that requires segmentation based upon the Company’s internal organization and disclosure of revenue and certain expenses based upon internal accounting methods. The Company’s financial reporting systems present various data for management to run the business, including internal profit and loss statements prepared on a basis not consistent with U.S. GAAP. Accounts receivable and long-lived assets are the only significant assets separated by segment for internal reporting purposes.
