Note on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA is defined as “Net income (loss) attributable to EchoStar” excluding “Interest expense, net of amounts capitalized,” “interest income”, “Income tax benefit (provision), net” and “Depreciation and amortization.” EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with US GAAP. This non-GAAP measure is reconciled to income (loss) before income taxes in the table above. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or any other measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Conceptually, EBITDA measures the amount of income generated each period that could be used to service debt, pay taxes and fund capital expenditures. EBITDA is used by our management as a measure of
operating efficiency and overall financial performance for benchmarking against our peers and competitors. Management believes EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information regarding liquidity and the underlying operating performance of our business. Management also believes that EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate the performance of companies in our industry.
The consolidated financial statements of EchoStar for the periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 are attached to this press release. Detailed financial data and other information are available in EchoStar’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
EchoStar will host its earnings conference call on Wednesday, February 24, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The call-in numbers are (877) 815-1625 (toll-free) and (716) 247-5178 (international), Conference ID # 93525715.
