Appendix


 

Q4 EBITDA, Free Cash Flow & Leverage Ratio * Non-US GAAP Measures: EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes), EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) and free cash flow are non-US GAAP financial measures. The use of these measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Securities analysts, investors, and others frequently use EBIT, EBITDA and free cash flow in their evaluation of companies, particularly those with significant property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets that are subject to amortization. Management uses EBIT to evaluate its performance without financing and tax related considerations, as these elements may not fluctuate with operating results. EBITDA is used in reviewing compliance with our debt covenants and in evaluating capital structure impacts of various strategic scenarios. Free cash flow is a non-US GAAP financial measure which Woodward and others define as cash from operations less capital expenditures. (Unaudited) (Unaudited) 16
