(III) RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET INCOME TO ADJUSTED NET INCOME, GAAP NET LOSS TO ADJUSTED NET LOSS, EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA
This press release contains four financial measures (Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Loss, EBITDA or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted EBITDA) that are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable
The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety.
