- EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry. In addition, our management uses EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance. The calculation of EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending. These items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall performance of the company’s business. EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to that of other similar titled measures reported by other companies.
- Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before the following charges:
- This adjustment removes the non-cash (income) expense associated with the change in fair market value of the Company’s warrant liability.
- During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of its term loan.
- The Company amortized deferred grant income to cost of goods sold in 2022 that represents a non-cash reduction to its gross margin.
- The Company transitioned to tolling manufacturing structure in the third quarter of 2022 and as a result incurred permanent VAT costs.
- The Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax pension settlement loss in the third quarter of 2023 and 2022.
- The Company incurred certain costs during 2022 for nonrecurring professional services associated with its financing arrangements.
- The Company incurred certain costs during 2022 related to new production lines.
- The Company incurred certain non-recurring consulting costs during 2022.
- The Company incurred certain non-recurring corporate realignment costs in 2022.
- The Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax gain related to sales of its leased railcar fleet in the second quarter of 2023.
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted EBITDA is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

- The Company recorded a non-cash pre-tax gain related to sales of its leased railcar fleet in the second quarter of 2023.
- Income tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments per share represents the tax impact of adjustments specific to Mexico using the effective tax rate. Given the Company’s US based NOLs and Valuation Allowances result in an effective tax rate of about % for the US, all US based adjustments above are not tax affected.

- During the second quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a non-cash loss on debt extinguishment of its term loan.

- Income tax impact on non-GAAP adjustments per share represents the tax impact of adjustments specific to Mexico using the effective tax rate.

We believe that Adjusted EPS is useful to investors evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry because it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Adjusted EPS is not a financial measure presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, when analyzing our operating performance, investors should not consider Adjusted EPS in isolation or as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other statements of operations or statements of cash flow data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EPS is not necessarily comparable to that of other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
