Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To evaluate the performance of our business, we rely on both our results of operations recorded in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental measures of operating performance and liquidity because these measures facilitate comparisons of historical performance by excluding non-cash items such as equity-based payments and other amounts not directly attributable to our primary operations, such as the impact of system implementation, acquisitions, disposals, litigation and settlements. Adjusted EBITDA is also a key metric used internally by our management to evaluate performance and develop internal budgets and forecasts. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP and may not provide a complete understanding of our operating results as a whole. Some of these limitations are (i) they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs, (ii) they do not reflect our interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, (iii) they do not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes, (iv) they do not reflect historical capital expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (v) although equity-based compensation expenses are non-cash charges, we rely on equity compensation to compensate and incentivize employees, directors and certain consultants, and we may continue to do so in the future and (vi) although depreciation, amortization and impairments are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure used by investors, financial analysts and management to help evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash to pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash outflows for purchases of property, plant and equipment. We revised our definition of Free Cash Flow from the definition used in the second quarter of 2024, which was net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash outflows for purchases of property, plant and equipment plus proceeds from sale of property and equipment. We believe our updated definition ensures a more accurate reflection of ongoing operational performance by excluding asset sales which are non-recurring and could distort the sustainability of cash flow generation. The impact of the change in our definition of Free Cash Flow reduces Free Cash Flow by the amount of cash inflows due to the sale of assets.
We believe the presentation of Free Cash Flow is relevant and useful for investors because it measures cash generated internally that is available to service debt and fund inorganic growth or acquisitions. Free Cash Flow is the cash flow from operations after payment of capital expenditures that we can use to invest in our business and meet our current and future financing needs.
We define Free Cash Flow Conversion as Free Cash Flow divided by Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that Free Cash Flow Conversion is useful to the users of our financial statements as it is a measure of the Company's long-term cash flow generating capacity.
Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion are limited due to the fact that these are not measures of residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures due to the payments required for debt service and other financing activities.
A reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is set forth below:
