About
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release contains adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure defined as net income excluding depreciation, amortization, income tax (benefit) expense, net interest (income) expense, stock-based compensation, and one-time transaction related costs. Additionally, this press release contains adjusted net income (loss), which is a non-GAAP measure defined as net income excluding goodwill impairment charges. The Company believes that adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) provide useful information to management and investors relating to its results of operations. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company's performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The Company believes that the use of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company's financial measures with other companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Management does not consider the non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents the non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP results. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Reconciliation tables of the net income, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss) are included at the end of this release. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company's business.
