| Segmented Information |
SEGMENTED INFORMATION Fortis' CEO is considered the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") for purposes of reviewing segment performance. Fortis segments its business based on regulatory jurisdiction and service territory, as well as the information used by the CODM in deciding how to allocate resources. Segment performance is evaluated principally on net earnings attributable to common equity shareholders, and this measure is used consistently in the evaluation of actual segment performance as well as in the Corporation’s business plan and forecasting processes.
