Section 2 – Financial Information
| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On June 5, 2013, Greif, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Earnings Release”) announcing the financial results for its second quarter ended April 30, 2013. The full text of the Earnings Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The text of the Earnings Release included the following non-GAAP financial measures (the “non-GAAP Measures”):
| (i) | EBITDA of the Company on a consolidated basis, which is equal to net income plus interest expense, net plus income tax expense less equity earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, net of tax plus depreciation, depletion and amortization, each on a consolidated basis; |
| (ii) | EBITDA for each of the Company’s business segments, which is equal to that business segment’s operating profit less that segment’s other expense (income), net plus that segment’s depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, as applicable to that segment; |
| (iii) | net working capital of the Company on a consolidated basis, which is equal to current assets less current liabilities less cash and cash equivalents, each on a consolidated basis; |
| (iv) | free cash flows of the Company on a consolidated basis, which is equal to cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of properties, plants, equipment and timber properties, each on a consolidated basis; and |
| (v) | net debt of the Company on a consolidated basis, which is equal to long-term debt plus the current portion of long-term debt plus short-term borrowings less cash and cash equivalents, each on a consolidated basis. |
Management of the Company uses the non-GAAP Measures to evaluate ongoing operations and believes that these non-GAAP Measures are useful to enable investors to perform meaningful comparisons of current and historical performance of the Company. Management of the Company also believes that the non-GAAP Measures provide a more stable platform on which to compare the historical performance of the Company than the most nearly equivalent GAAP data.
