(1) We present adjusted EBITDA (which we define as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation and impairment of acquisition-related intangibles) and free cash flow because we believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors the ability to better assess and understand our operating performance. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. In addition, we believe that investors, analysts and rating agencies will consider these measures useful in measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations. In addition, we use free cash flow to establish operational goals and for measuring performance for compensation purposes. However, these measures are not recognized measures under GAAP, and when analyzing our financial results, investors should use these measures in addition, and not as an alternative, to net income or cash provided by operating activities, each as defined under GAAP. Since other companies may calculate these measures differently, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
