Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On February 24, 2015, Tornier N.V. (“Tornier”) issued a press release announcing its consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 28, 2014. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and the information set forth therein is incorporated herein by reference and constitutes a part of this report.

To supplement Tornier’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), Tornier uses the following non-GAAP financial measures, several of which are included in Tornier’s press release:

 

    revenues on a constant currency basis, which remove the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and are calculated by translating current period results at prior period average foreign currency exchange rates;

 

    EBITDA, which represents net loss before interest income and expense, income tax expense and benefit, depreciation and amortization;

 

    adjusted EBITDA, which gives further effect to, among other things, non-operating income and expense, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, loss on extinguishment of debt, share-based compensation, amortization of the inventory step-up from acquisitions and special charges including acquisition, integration and distribution transition costs, reversal of a contingent consideration liability, legal settlements, restructuring charges, proposed merger related costs and certain other items that affect the comparability and trend of Tornier’s operating results;

 

    adjusted EBITDA margin, which represents adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues as reported;

 

    adjusted net loss, which represents net loss, as reported, excluding amortization of the inventory step up from acquisitions, tax benefit from reversal of valuation allowance, loss on extinguishment of debt, special charges as described above, and certain other items that affect the comparability and trend of Tornier’s operating results;

 

    adjusted net loss per share, which represents net income (loss) per share excluding amortization of the inventory step-up from acquisition, tax benefit from reversal of valuation allowance, loss on extinguishment of debt, special charges as described above and certain other items that affect the comparability and trend of Tornier’s operating results;

 

    adjusted free cash flow, which represents net cash provided by operating activities, less instrument investments and plant, property and equipment investments;

 

    adjusted gross margin, which represents gross margin, as adjusted for inventory step-up due to acquisition;

 

    adjusted gross margin percentage, which represents adjusted gross margin as a percentage of revenues as reported;

 

    adjusted operating expenses, which represents operating expenses, as adjusted for amortization of intangible assets and special charges; and

 

    adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, which represents adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenues as reported.


Tornier believes the non-GAAP financial measures described above and used by Tornier provide additional meaningful information for measuring Tornier’s financial performance and are measures frequently used by Tornier’s management, as well as securities analysts and investors. Tornier uses non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of its performance and believes such measures facilitate operating performance comparisons period to period and company to company by factoring out potential differences caused by charges not related to Tornier’s regular, ongoing business, including non-cash charges, certain large and unpredictable charges, acquisitions and dispositions, legal settlements and tax positions. Tornier’s management uses non-GAAP financial measures to assess the performance of Tornier’s core operations, analyze underlying trends in Tornier’s businesses, establish operational goals and forecasts, and evaluate Tornier’s performance period over period and in relation to the operating results of its competitors. Tornier’s management uses non-GAAP financial measures to help allocate its resources to both ongoing and prospective business initiatives and to help make budgeting and spending decisions, for example, between product development expenses, research and development expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses. Tornier’s management is evaluated on the basis of several of these non-GAAP financial measures when determining achievement of performance incentive compensation goals.

Tornier believes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools since they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with Tornier’s operating results as determined in accordance with GAAP and should only be used to evaluate Tornier’s operating results in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. Accordingly, revenue on a constant currency basis should not be used as a substitute for revenue; EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted net income (loss) per share should not be used as a substitute for net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share; adjusted EBITDA margin should not be used as a substitute for net margin or operating margin; adjusted free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for cash flows from operations; adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross margin percentage should not be used as a substitute for gross margin or gross margin as a percentage of revenue; and adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue should not be used as a substitute for operating expenses or operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP. Neither EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin as a percentage of revenue, adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, should be an indication of whether cash flow will be sufficient to fund Tornier’s cash requirements. Additionally, the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures is not based on any comprehensive or standard set of accounting rules or principles. Accordingly, Tornier’s definitions of revenue on a constant currency basis, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per share, adjusted free cash flow, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin as a percentage of revenue, adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, may differ from the definitions of other companies using the same or similar names limiting, to some extent, the usefulness of such measures for comparison purposes.

All of the non-GAAP financial measures used in Tornier’s press release are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in the press release.
