Calculation of Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin(1)

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

(1)         Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are calculated as presented in the tables above. We consider Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin to be appropriate measures of our operating performance, along with net income, net income attributable to RMR, operating income and cash flow from operating activities.  RMR believes that Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin provide useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as member’s profit sharing, interest and depreciation expense, and certain non-recurring charges, such as the transaction related costs in connection with the creation of The RMR Group Inc. and the distribution of its shares of Class A Common Stock, Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may facilitate a comparison of current operating performance with the performance of other asset management businesses. Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net income, net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., operating income or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of RMR’s needs. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income, net income attributable to The RMR Group Inc., operating income and cash flow from operating activities as presented in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consolidated statements of cash flows. Also, other asset management businesses may calculate Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin differently than we do.
