| SEGMENT INFORMATION | SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company defines its segments on the basis by which internally reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the CODM to evaluate financial performance, make operating decisions, and allocate resources. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) has been identified as the CODM. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, in conjunction with growth in revenues from software and services and establishing Rivian and VW Group Technology, LLC, there was a change in the composition of the Company’s segments. As a result of this change, the Company analyzes the results of the business through the following reportable segments: Automotive and Software and Services. The Company's CODM assesses each segment's performance (i.e., progress against goals and overall cost management) using gross profit compared to prior period results and internal forecasts. This assessment includes the drivers of changes in gross profit by segment, including changes in volume and mix and in net pricing and cost categories at constant volume and mix. Gross profit is comprised of revenues and cost of revenues. Automotive The Automotive reportable segment derives its revenues and cost of revenues from the production and sale of new EVs and the sale of regulatory credits generated by the production and sale of EVs. Software and Services The Software and services reportable segment derives its revenues and cost of revenues primarily from remarketing, vehicle repair and maintenance services, and vehicle electrical architecture and software development services. Subscriptions, extended service contracts, sales of vehicle accessories and regulatory credits not generated by the production and sale of EVs, and other items are also included. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company’s assets and revenues are primarily in the United States. The CODM does not receive segment asset information as it is not used to assesses each segment's performance. There are no inter-segment revenues. The tables below provide a reconciliation from the Company’s gross profit by segment to consolidated gross profit (in millions):
