where能修饰形容词吗

The computer company registered a $16 million net loss for the year, largely because it was profitable only overseas, where much of their profits were used for paying higher taxes, while continuing to lose money in North America.

• Awhere much of their profits were used for paying higher taxes, while continuing  
• Bwhere much of their profits went to pay higher taxes, as they continued  
• Cwhere much of its profit went to pay higher taxes, while it continued  
• Dwith much of their profits going to pay higher taxes, while continuing  
• Ewith much of the profit used for paying higher taxes, as it continued  正确答案是C，我当时选的是E，虽然觉得as it continued这部分有些awkard，with也算一个风险结构，但是我一直怀疑where能否修饰overseas这种形容词所以排掉了ABC。在曼哈顿8里第87页说过，where can be used to modify a noun place, such as area,site,country.所以如题,where真的能修饰像overseas这样的形容词吗？马上要考试了，感谢解答！！！！！！

overseas此处明显是副词。。。
home也是副词，你觉得可以用where修饰吗？
I went back home, where is warm and sweet.
