EXHIBIT 99.1
Within the following tables, Ashland has disclosed “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” results. Such measurements are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management believes the use of non-GAAP measures on a consolidated and business segment basis assists investors in understanding the ongoing operating performance by presenting comparable financial results between periods. The non-GAAP information provided is used by Ashland management and may not be determined in a manner consistent with the methodologies used by other companies. “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” provide a supplemental presentation of Ashland’s operating performance on a consolidated and business segment basis. The appendix following these tables includes a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.
