Explanatory Notes:
_______________________________________________________________________________
(1) | Adjusted EBITDA should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as shown in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (determined in accordance with GAAP), as an indicator of the Company's performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is Adjusted EBITDA an indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs or available for distribution to shareholders. Rather, Adjusted EBITDA is an additional measure for the Company to use to analyze how the business is performing. It should be noted that the Company's manner of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the calculations of similarly-titled measures by other companies. See computation of Adjusted EBITDA on page 33. |
