Adjusted EBITDAR Reconciliation (Unaudited)
As of and for the periods ending November 30, 2009
EBITDA represents net income (loss) before net interest expense, income tax benefit (provision), and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDAR represents EBITDA as further adjusted to reflect the items set forth in the table below, all of which are required in determining our compliance with financial covenants under our Debtor-in-Possession (DIP) credit facility. Adjusted EBITDAR, which is used by management to measure performance, is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDAR is useful to investors because it is used in our debt instruments to determine compliance with financial covenants. It is included as a supplemental measure of our operating performance because it eliminates items that have less bearing on operating performance and highlights trends in the core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. In addition, Adjusted EBITDAR is one of the primary measures management uses for planning and budgeting processes and to monitor and evaluate financial and operating results. Adjusted EBITDAR is not a recognized term under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to measures of our financial performance as determined in accordance with GAAP, such as net income (loss). Because other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAR differently than we do, EBITDA may not be, and Adjusted EBITDAR as presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K is not, comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
