Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, which is intended as a supplemental measure of the Company's performance that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses this non-GAAP measure internally to evaluate and manage the Company's operations and to better understand its business because it facilitates a comparative assessment of the Company's operating performance relative to its performance based on results calculated under GAAP. This non-GAAP measure also isolates the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance and eliminate certain charges that management believes do not reflect the Company's operations and underlying operational performance. The compensation committee of the Company's board of directors also uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate management's performance and set its compensation. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure also provides useful information to investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and operating results facilitates an evaluation of the financial performance of the Company and its operations on a consistent basis. Providing this information therefore allows investors to make independent assessments of the Company's financial performance, results of operations, cash flows, net leverage and trends while viewing the information through the eyes of management.

This non-GAAP measure is subject to limitations. The non-GAAP measure presented in this communication may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies because other companies may not calculate one or more in the same manner. Additionally, the non-GAAP performance measure excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements, does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs, and does not reflect interest expense, or the requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt. Further, our historical adjusted results are not intended to project our adjusted results of operations or financial position for any future period. To compensate for these limitations, management presents and considers this non-GAAP measure in conjunction with the Company's GAAP results; no non-GAAP measure should be considered in isolation from or as alternatives to any measure determined in accordance with GAAP.
