The segments changed

When a company changes its segments, the years before are usually recast, so growth by segment is not comparable with what earlier 10-Ks showed. Found by comparing the segments with revenue in the last two 10-Ks (XBRL) and by the 10-K's own words, without AI.

EBITDA = operating income + depreciation and amortization; free cash flow = operating cash flow - capital spending; total debt = long-term debt (with its current part) + short-term borrowings. Stock-based pay and leases are shown as the company reports them; Tickdelta does not take them out of earnings or add leases to debt.
