Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA guidance are useful performance metrics for management and investors because they are indicative of the ongoing operations of the Company. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain non-cash and non-operating items to facilitate comparisons and provide a meaningful measurement that is focused on the performance of the ongoing operations of the Company.
