NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The financial target information provided in this press release includes the forward-looking financial measures calculated in a manner other than in accordance with
The non-GAAP measures used in this press release are adjusted net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales (Adjusted EBITDA margin) and free cash flow, which management uses as key performance indicators, and we believe they are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate companies in our industry. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash provided by operating activities, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance.
The Company calculates forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in forward-looking GAAP net income (loss). The Company calculates free cash flow based on forward-looking cash provided from operating activities less forward-looking capital expenditures. The Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin or free cash flow guidance to forward-looking GAAP net income (loss) or forward-looking cash flow provided by operating activities because forecasting the exact timing or impact of items, including, without limitation, the impact of macroeconomic, industry and operational changes through 2026, that have not yet occurred and are out of its control is inherently uncertain and unavailable without unreasonable efforts. Further, the Company believes that such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors and could have substantial impact on GAAP measures of financial performance.
