Note to Reader: Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures

Throughout this press release management uses certain non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures to evaluate the performance of the Company. The terms "EBIT for return on invested capital", and "Average Invested Capital" are non-IFRS financial measures, "return on invested capital" or "ROIC", is a non-IFRS ratio, and "reoccurring revenues", "custom integration revenues", "equipment / products revenues", "service including spare parts revenues", and "research expenditures" are supplementary financial measures, all of which do not have any standardized meaning prescribed within International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Such measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Reoccurring revenue for ATS is defined as revenue from ancillary products and services associated with equipment sales and revenue from customers who purchase non-customized ATS products at regular intervals. Custom integration revenues are defined as revenues from end-to-end manufacturing solutions customized to customer needs. Equipment / products revenues are defined as revenues from modular or standardized equipment and other products. Services including spare parts revenues are defined as revenues from consulting, digital and other services, including aftermarket services and spares. Return on invested capital is defined as the ratio between tax effected EBIT for return on invested capital and average invested capital. EBIT for return on invested capital is defined as the sum of net income, tax expense, interest expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets and restructuring charges. The most directly comparable IFRS financial measure to EBIT for return on invested capital is earnings from operations. Average invested capital is the average quarter end total of bank indebtedness, debt, and shareholders' equity, less cash for the prior four quarters. Research expenditures are defined as expenditures related to research or development of new technologies or products, and are a component of cost of revenues on the Company's Consolidated and Interim Statements of Income. Reoccurring revenues, custom integration revenues, equipment / products revenues and service including spare parts revenues are used by the Company to understand the revenue portfolio of the Company. Return on invested capital is used in measuring the efficiency of the Company's capital deployment. Research expenditures are used by the Company to assess investment in innovation. Management believes that ATS shareholders and potential investors in ATS use these additional IFRS measures and non-IFRS financial measures in making investment decisions and measuring operational results.
