| SEGMENT INFORMATION |
(17) SEGMENT INFORMATION
The primary measure used for assessing segment performance and making operating decisions is earnings before interest and income taxes. Beginning with the first quarter of 2019, the segment performance measure excludes certain costs that support global product platform development and digital as a result of a change in the way we evaluate the performance of operations, develop strategy and allocate capital resources. Such costs are now included in Corporate and other. We also revised our sales by product and service offering categories during the first quarter of 2019. As noted below, certain prior year comparative segment measurements have been restated in the tables below to conform with the 2019 presentation.
The segment performance measure excludes corporate and other costs which consist of headquarters management costs, stock-based compensation, interest expense, other incentive compensation, global digital costs, and costs that support global product platform development and offering management.
