Non-GAAP Information Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information: The Company believes that non-GAAP performance measures, which management uses in evaluating the Company's business, may provide users of the Company's financial information with additional meaningful bases for comparing the Company's current results and results in a prior period, as these measures reflect factors that are unique to one period relative to the comparable period. However, the non-GAAP performance measures should be viewed in addition to, not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Gross Profit plus manufacturing integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus acquisition expense related to the fair market write up of inventories, plus one time items so defined (Note 1) The Company defines Adjusted S,G&A as S,G&A less manufacturing integration expenses included in selling, general and administrative, less direct acquisition expenses, less one time items so defined. (Note 2) The Company defines Adjusted Operating Income as Operating Income plus manufacturing integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus acquisition expense related to the fair market write up of inventories, plus facility consolidation and severance expenses, plus acquisition related expenses, plus impairment of assets, plus impairment of goodwill, plus one time items so defined. (Note 3) The company defines Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations as net income plus loss from discontinued operations net of tax, plus manufacturing integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus facility consolidation and severance expenses, plus acquisition related expenses, plus impairment of assets, plus impairment of goodwill, plus one time items so defined , all tax effected. (Note 4) The Company defines Adjusted EBIT as net income plus taxes and plus interest. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as Adjusted EBIT plus depreciation and amortization, plus manufacturing in integration expenses of new or expanded operations, plus facility consolidation and severance expenses, plus acquisition related expenses, plus impairment of assets, plus impairment of goodwill, plus one time items so defined. (Note 5) The company defines Free Cash Flow as Net Income plus interest plus depreciation plus non-cash impairment of assets and goodwill minus the net change in working capital minus the tax shield on interest minus capital expenditures. The change in net working capital is the change in current assets less current liabilities between periods. (Note 6) The company defines Non-GAAP Earnings per Share (EPS) as the adjusted operating income less Interest and other expense, tax adjusted at a 35% rate, and divided by the number of fully diluted shares. (Note 7) The Company defines Net Sales as Adjusted as net sales less the last week of sales in a 53 week fiscal year. (Note 8) The Company defines Non-GAAP earnings per Share (EPS) for the Jobs Cut and Tax Act of 2017 as Net Income less discontinued operations minus the effect of the tax act and divided by the number of fully diluted shares.
