Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, revenue growth excluding FX and net debt are measures not recognized under U.S. GAAP and which exclude certain noncash and special items that may obscure trends and operating performance not indicative of the Company's core financial activities. Management considers EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, revenue growth excluding FX and net debt to be key indicators of the Company's operating performance and believes that these and similar measures are widely used by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating the Company's performance. In addition, similar measures are utilized in the calculation of the financial covenants and ratios contained in the Company s financing arrangements and management uses these measures for developing internal budgets and forecasting purposes. EBITDA is defined as net income adjusted to reflect income tax expense, interest expense net of interest income, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted to reflect certain items that management does not consider to be reflective of the Company's core operating performance. Revenue growth excluding FX is defined as period to period change in revenue adjusted to reflect constant foreign currency exchange rates. Net debt is defined as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents. When analyzing the Company s operating performance, investors should use EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, revenue growth excluding FX and net debt as supplements to, and not as alternatives for, net income, operating income, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and not as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of the Company s liquidity. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, revenue growth excluding FX and net debt have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company s results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP. Other companies may report EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, revenue growth excluding FX and net debt differently and therefore the Company's results may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. In addition, in evaluating adjusted EBITDA, it should be noted that in the future the Company may incur expenses similar to or in excess of the adjustments in the below presentation. This presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by special items. Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and revenue growth excluding FX follow. 32
