Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Our segment disclosure is intended to provide the users of our condensed consolidated financial statements with a view of the business that is consistent with management of the Company.
We manage our business and report our financial results through the following two segments:
•North America offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights in the United States and Canada; and
•International offers Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing data, analytics and business insights directly in the U.K., Europe, Greater China and India and indirectly through our WWN alliances.
On January 8, 2021, we acquired 100% ownership of Bisnode and in November 2021, we acquired 100% ownership of both Eyeota and NetWise. See Note 14 for further discussion. Financial results of Bisnode, Eyeota and NetWise have been included in our International segment and North America segment, respectively, since the respective acquisition dates.
We use adjusted EBITDA as the primary profitability measure for making decisions regarding ongoing operations. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Dun & Bradstreet Holdings, Inc. excluding the following items: (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) interest expense and income; (iii) income tax benefit or provision; (iv) other non-operating
expenses or income; (v) equity in net income of affiliates; (vi) net income attributable to non-controlling interests; (vii) other incremental or reduced expenses and revenue from the application of purchase accounting (e.g. commission asset amortization and acquisitions); (viii) equity-based compensation; (ix) restructuring charges; (x) merger, acquisition and divestiture-related operating costs; (xi) transition costs primarily consisting of non-recurring expenses associated with transformational and integration activities, as well as incentive expenses associated with our synergy program; (xii) legal expense associated with significant legal and regulatory matters; and (xiii) asset impairment. Our client solution sets are Finance & Risk and Sales & Marketing. Inter-segment sales are immaterial, and no single client accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue.
