Business Segment Information   BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, for which separate financial information is available, and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Substantially all of our business consists of the generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electric energy conducted through IPL which is a vertically integrated electric utility. IPALCO’s reportable business segment is its utility segment, with all other non-utility business activities aggregated separately. The "All Other" non-utility category primarily includes the 2024 IPALCO Notes and 2030 IPALCO Notes and related interest expense, balances associated with IPALCO's interest rate hedges, cash and other immaterial balances. The accounting policies of the identified segment are consistent with those policies and procedures described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

Business Segment Information BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATIONOperating segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, for which separate financial information is available, and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in assessing performance and deciding how to allocate resources. All of IPL’s current business consists of the generation, transmission, distribution and sale of electric energy, and therefore IPL had only one reportable segment.
