NASDAQ: RGLD | Non - GAAP Financial Measures Non - GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) . These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP . Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as measures of operating performance to assist in comparing performance from period to period on a consistent basis ; as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations ; in communications with the board of directors, stockholders, analysts and investors concerning our financial performance ; as useful comparisons to the performance of our competitors ; and as metrics of certain management incentive compensation calculations . We believe that these measures are used by and are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating our operating performance because they provide an additional tool to evaluate our performance without regard to special and non - core items, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets and capital structure . We have provided reconciliations of all non - GAAP measures to their nearest U . S . GAAP measures and have consistently applied the adjustments within our reconciliations in arriving at each non - GAAP measure . We consider these items to be necessary adjustments for purposes of evaluating our ongoing business performance and are often considered non - recurring . Such adjustments are subjective and involve significant management judgment . Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income (loss) plus depreciation, depletion and amortization, non - cash charges, income tax expense, interest and other expense, and any impairment of mining assets, less non - controlling interests in operating loss (income) of consolidated subsidiaries, interest and other income, and any royalty portfolio restructuring gains or losses . Other companies may define and calculate this measure differently . Adjusted EBITDA identifies the cash generated in a given period that will be available to fund the Company's future operations, growth opportunities, shareholder dividends and to service the Company's debt obligations . This information differs from measures of performance determined in accordance with U . S . GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance determined in accordance with U . S . GAAP . See the table below for a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA . Non - GAAP Financial Measures and Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation 14 For The Three Months Ended September 30, (Unaudited, in thousands) 2017 2016 Net income 26,548$ 26,955$ Depreciation, depletion and amortization 39,692 40,102 Non-cash employee stock compensation 2,373 4,144 Interest and other, net 7,600 6,748 Income tax expense 7,544 7,188 Non-controlling interests in operating loss of consolidated subsidiaries 2,083 2,984 Adjusted EBITDA 85,840$ 88,121$
