Segment Information
SEGMENT INFORMATION    
During the fourth quarter of 2015, we sold our Security business, which was previously a separate reportable segment. This business is now included within discontinued operations for all periods presented, and we have revised our segment results accordingly. Refer to Note 4, “Discontinued Operations,” for further information. We currently have five reportable segments: Janitorial, Facility Services, Parking, Building & Energy Solutions, and Other.
The accounting policies for our segments are the same as those disclosed within our significant accounting policies in Note 2, “Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies.” Our management evaluates the performance of each reportable segment based on its respective operating profit results, which include the allocation of certain centrally incurred costs. Corporate expenses not allocated to segments include:
certain CEO and other finance and human resource departmental costs;
certain information technology costs;
share-based compensation costs;
certain legal costs and settlements;
restructuring and related costs;
certain adjustments resulting from actuarial developments of self-insurance reserves; and
direct acquisition costs.
