I feel like not-for-profit enterprises might have different reporting requirements, but I can't remember if they need to report on segments like public companies do.

This question reminds me of a practice question we did on segment reporting. I believe only publicly-traded companies need to report, but I might be mixing it up with another topic.

I think publicly-traded enterprises are the ones that have to report on business segments, but I'm not entirely sure about the specifics.
