Additionally, Corporate and other includes other items that are managed at the corporate level and are not allocated to reportable segments.
(b)Depreciation expense directly attributable to each reportable segment is included in the operating results of each segment. However, the Chief Operating Decision Maker does not evaluate depreciation expense by operating segment, and therefore such expense is not separately presented.

(d)Stock-based compensation expense consists of equity awards granted based on the estimated fair value of those awards at grant date.
(e)Other corporate expenses includes severance expenses, payroll taxes associated with stock-based compensation, incentive charges related to equity investments, facility action costs, transaction-related expenses, and impairment charges.
(f)Income and expenses within Interest and other, net, is not allocated to the reportable segments. Therefore, the Company only reports reportable segment operating income.
