Adjusted Operating Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures calculated by excluding costs which are non-recurring in nature, including dispositions and merger integration and transaction costs. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes net actuarial gains or losses associated with our pension and postemployment benefit plans. Management believes that these measures provide relevant and useful information to investors and other users of our financial data in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends.
 
Adjusted Operating Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
 
*Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Adjusted Operating Revenues.

Free cash flow includes reimbursements of certain postretirement benefits paid.
 
Free cash flow is defined as cash from operations minus construction and capital expenditures.  Free cash flow after dividends is defined as cash from operations minus construction, capital expenditures and dividends.  Free cash flow dividend payout ratio is defined as the percentage of dividends paid to free cash flow. We believe these metrics provide useful information to our investors because management regularly reviews free cash flow as an important indicator of the cash generated by normal business operations, including capital expenditures, and makes decisions based on it. Management also views free cash flow as a measure of cash available to pay debt and return cash to shareowners.

1 The pro forma financials reflect the combined results of operations of the combined company based on the historical financial statements of AT&T and DIRECTV, after giving effect to the merger and certain adjustments, and are intended to reflect the impact of the DIRECTV acquisition on AT&T. Adjustments to derive Pro Forma Net Income are consistent with the adjustments described in the "Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements" included in the Form 8-K/A dated July 24, 2015. Calculations include the historical results for AT&T for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the results from DIRECTV for the period from January 1, 2015 through July 24, 2015, the date of its acquisition by AT&T.
 
2 Adjustments include Operations and Support expenses for domestic wireless integration costs.
 
3 Adjustments include DIRECTV merger and integration items and Operations and Support expenses for international wireless integration costs. Approximately $182 of DIRECTV merger costs were included in Pro Forma Net Income.
 
4 Adjustment includes pre-tax charge related to the remeasurement of the net monetary assets at the SIMADI rate and the associated impairment of the fixed assets of DIRECTV's Venezuelan subsidiary.
 
5 Adjustment to eliminate AT&T's merger costs in the pro forma net income as those costs are included in the line "DIRECTV/Mexico merger integration items" above.
 
Net-Debt-to-EBITDA ratios are non-GAAP financial measures frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies. Management believes these measures provide relevant and useful information to investors and other users of our financial data.  Net debt is calculated by subtracting cash and cash equivalents from the sum of debt maturing within one year and long-term debt. The Net-Debt-to-EBITDA ratio is calculated by dividing the Net Debt by annualized EBITDA. Annualized EBITDA is calculated by annualizing the year-to-date EBITDA.
 
Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

1 For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA to be a relevant and useful measurement to our investors as it is part of our internal management reporting and planning processes and it is an important metric that management uses to evaluate operating performance. EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses.

1 For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization. EBITDA service margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by service revenues. EBITDA differs from Segment Operating Income (Loss), as calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in that it excludes depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

1 For AT&T, EBITDA is defined as operating income before depreciation and amortization. EBITDA service margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by service revenues. EBITDA differs from Segment Operating Income (Loss), as calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), in that it excludes depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not give effect to cash used for debt service requirements and thus does not reflect available funds for distributions, reinvestment or other discretionary uses. EBITDA is not presented as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, as presented, may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
