Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Statements in this release include financial information presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and also include non-GAAP financial measures that are provided as additional information to enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and not as an alternative to the consolidated interim financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Free Cash Flow) to evaluate the Company’s financial performance. These terms might not be calculated in the same manner as, and thus might not be comparable to, similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The financial information tables that accompany this press release include reconciliations of net income to non-GAAP financial measures.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide a measure of the Company’s operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of the Company’s core business on an ongoing basis, by removing the effects of non-operating and certain non-cash expenses. These non-operating and non-cash items are specifically identified in the reconciliations of GAAP measures to Non-GAAP measures that accompany this release.
Free Cash Flow provides useful information to investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that can be used for strategic opportunities and is computed as Cash Flows from Operating Activities less both the Purchase of Property and Equipment & Purchase of Intangible Assets.
