4 Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Safe Harbor Non-GAAP Financial Measures Certain financial measures presented herein, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Conversion Ratio and Net Debt were derived based on methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have included these measures because we believe they are indicative of our operating performance, are used by investors and analysts to evaluate us and can facilitate comparisons across periods. As presented by us, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Conversion Ratio and Net Debt should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, see the appendix slides.

Forward-looking statements are those statements that are based upon management’s current plans and expectations as opposed to historical and current facts. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation reflect management’s current assumptions based upon information currently available to management and based upon that which management believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot be certain that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements.
