Appendix 4: Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA The Company uses the ratio of total debt to adjusted EBITDA as one measure of its long-term financial stability. The ratio of debt to adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that represents total debt divided by the trailing 12-month total of income from continuing operations before interest expense, debt settlement charges, restructuring charges, other (income)/expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. The Company uses the ratio to calibrate the magnitude of its debt and its debt capacity against adjusted EBITDA, which is used as an operating performance measure. We believe that investors use a version of this ratio in a similar manner. In addition, financial institutions (including the Company’s lenders) use the ratio in connection with debt agreements to set pricing and covenant limitations. For these reasons, the Company believes that the ratio is a meaningful metric to investors in evaluating the Company’s long-term financial performance and stability. Other companies may use different methods to calculate total debt to EBITDA. The following table summarizes the Company’s ratio of total debt to adjusted EBITDA, and reconciles income from continuing operations to adjusted EBITDA as of and for the trailing twelve month periods ended. : 25 ($ in millions) 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Q1 TTM 2016 Total Debt 217.4$ 157.8$ 92.1$ 50.2$ 44.1$ 0.6$ Income from continuing operations 8.1 15.5 152.5 59.7 65.8 61.8 Add: Interest expense 16.2 21.3 8.9 3.6 2.3 2.1 R s ruc uri g - 1.4 0.7 - 0.4 1.6 D bt ttl ment charges - 3.5 8.7 - - 0.3 Other (income)/expense, net - 0.9 0.1 1.7 1.0 (0.9) Income tax expense 2.0 1.4 (108.6) 23.7 34.1 31.5 Depreciation and amortization 10.5 10.6 11.0 11.5 12.3 12.3 Adjusted EBITDA 36.8$ 54.6$ 73.3$ 100.2$ 115.9$ 108.7$ Total debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio 5.9 2.9 1.3 0.5 0.4 0.0
