Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information — This news release includes the term “EBITDA,” which, as used in this release, is a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure. EBITDA is defined as estimated net income plus estimated net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. EBITDA estimates depend on future levels of revenues and expenses, which are not reasonably estimable at this time. Accordingly, we cannot provide a reconciliation between projected 2025 EBITDA to net income without unreasonable effort.
