Die Firma wird diese Praxis nach Aussagen des Managements ab 2005 zusammen mit der Umstellung der Rechnungslegung von HGB auf IFRS ändern und dann die branchenübliche EBIT-Definition verwenden. Eine segmentspezifische Korrektur ist uns mit den von der Firma zur Verfügung gestellten Daten nicht möglich.

segment-specific correction
A straightforward translation works here. What they mean is that the data provided by the company is not sufficiently differentiated to allow for a breakdown correction based on market segment (or possibly time period/fiscal year segment, which is why I would just say "segment" in the translation as well).

Ralf Lemster
: "Segment" is correct because this appears to refer to segment reporting (which includes EBIT by segment).

(tax) audit/review by segment
I just wonder if this is a tax-related question since 'Korrektur' is frequently used to describe the tax authorities' investigation and, if appropriate, alteration of Verrechnungspreise and so on
if it is, then 'Korrektur' is rather wider than 'correction'
if it isn't, ignore this answer

: I don't think the tax authorities have any interest at all in EBIT. Sound more like a due diligence or even an analyst's report to me...
