Segment Information
Segment Information

The Company has identified four reportable segments, which are organized based on the products and services provided by its operating segments and the geographic areas in which its operating segments conduct business, as follows:

•
U.S. Car Rental - rental of cars, crossovers and light trucks, as well as ancillary products and services, in the United States and consists of the Company's United States operating segment;

•
International Car Rental - rental of cars, crossovers and light trucks, as well as ancillary products and services, internationally and consists of the Company's Europe and Other International operating segments, which are aggregated into a reportable segment based primarily upon similar economic characteristics, products and services, customers, delivery methods and general regulatory environments;

•
Worldwide Equipment Rental - rental of industrial, construction, material handling and other equipment and consists of the Company's worldwide equipment rental operating segment; and

•
All Other Operations - includes the Company's Donlen operating segment which provides fleet leasing and management services and is not considered a separate reportable segment in accordance with applicable accounting standards, together with other business activities, such as its claim management services.

In addition to the above reportable segments, the Company has corporate operations ("Corporate") which includes general corporate assets and expenses and certain interest expense (including net interest on corporate debt).

Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is calculated as income before income taxes plus non-cash purchase accounting charges, debt-related charges relating to the amortization and write-off of debt financing costs and debt discounts and certain one-time charges and non-operational items. Adjusted pre-tax income (loss) is important because it allows management to assess operational performance of its business, exclusive of the items mentioned above. Management believes that it is important to investors for the same reasons it is important to management and because it allows them to assess the Company's operational performance on the same basis that management uses internally.

Revenues and adjusted pre-tax income (loss) by segment and the reconciliation to consolidated amounts are summarized below.
