Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA including environmental indemnification payments, Adjusted EBITDA less CapEx, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Segment Profit, organic sales growth, and other financial measures not compliant with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measures provided herein are adjusted for certain items as presented in the tables above and may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies in our industry, as other companies may define such measures differently. Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends. These metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as replacements for, the most comparable GAAP measure. Refer to the tables above in this release for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA including environmental indemnification payments, Adjusted EBITDA less Cap Ex, Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Segment Profit, and organic sales growth are important indicators of operating performance which more closely measure our operating profit.
A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA including environmental indemnification payments, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA to the closest GAAP financial measures is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the impact and timing on future operating results arising from items excluded from these measures, particularly standalone costs, environmental indemnification reimbursement expense,non-operating (income) expense, stock compensation expense and repositioning charges.
