reporting segments are components of the Group for which discrete financial information is available, and that the Board of Directors and the Management Committee regularly review in order to decide the allocation of business resources and assess operating performance. The Group has four reportable segments consisting of the “Japan,” “Asia-Pacific, India and China,” “Americas,” and “Europe, Middle East and Africa” segments, structured as such to disclose business results more appropriately based on Strategic Business Units (SBU)—classification of the Group’s businesses for management control purposes. Within the above segments, the Group runs its tire business, solutions business, chemical and industrial products and diversified products business, and other businesses. The Group classified anti-vibration rubber business as discontinued operations, thereby deducting such discontinued operations from monetary amounts of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and three months ended March 31, 2026. Segment revenue and business results Revenue and business results of the continuing operations by reportable segment of the Group are as follows. The Board of Directors assesses the segment performance and determines resource allocation after reviewing revenues and adjusted operating profit. Internal sales or transfers between segments are determined primarily at selling prices based on arm’s length transaction prices or total cost.
