 Segment Pre-Tax Operating Income

The segment pre-tax operating income for the third quarter of 2025 was $47.0 million, which generated a pre-tax segment operating margin of 20% compared to $38.5 million and 19% in the prior year, respectively. The increase in the segment pre-tax operating income and margin reflected increased net revenue, partially offset by an increase in segment expenses.
