Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Earnings before interest, taxes and discontinued operations (“EBIT before discontinued operations”), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA from operations are measures commonly used by financial analysts in evaluating the performance of companies. EBIT
before discontinued operations is calculated from net income by adding interest expense and income tax expense, and adding the
loss or subtracting the income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated from EBIT before
discontinued operations by: (1) adding depreciation and amortization from continuing operations; (2) adding the net unrealized loss
or subtracting the net unrealized gain on foreign currency and bunker fuel hedges and the cross currency swap which do not have a
more than insignificant financing element present at contract inception; (3) adding the net loss or subtracting the net gain on the
long-term Japanese yen hedges; (4) adding the foreign currency loss or subtracting the foreign currency gain on the vessel
obligations; (5) adding the net unrealized loss or subtracting the net unrealized gain on foreign denominated instruments; (6) adding
share-based compensation expense; (7) adding charges for restructuring and long-term receivables; (8) adding loss on early
retirement of debt; and (9) subtracting the gain on asset sales.  Due to the fact that the long-term Japanese yen hedges had more
than an insignificant financing element at inception, the liability is treated similar to a debt instrument and the associated cash flows
are classified as a financing activity. As a result, both the realized and unrealized gains and losses related to these hedges are
subtracted from or added back to EBIT before discontinued operations when calculating Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA from
operations is calculated from Adjusted EBITDA by adding corporate overhead expense. These items have been adjusted because
management excludes these amounts when evaluating the performance of Dole. Net debt is calculated as total debt less cash.
EBIT before discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from operations are not calculated or presented in
accordance with U.S. GAAP and are not a substitute for net income attributable to Dole Food Company, Inc., net income, income
from continuing operations, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Further, EBIT
before discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from operations as used herein are not necessarily
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. However, Dole has included these three measures herein because
management believes that they are useful performance measures for Dole and for securities analysts, investors and others in the
evaluation of Dole.
