Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In order to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by R1’s management team in financial and operational decision making, the Company supplements its GAAP consolidated financial statements with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss) before net interest income/expense, income tax provision/benefit, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, CoyCo 2, L.P. share-based compensation expense, and certain other items, including business acquisition costs, integration costs, technology transformation, strategic initiatives, the global business services center expansion project in the Philippines and facility-exit charges.
Our board of directors and management team use adjusted EBITDA as (i) one of the primary methods for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations and (ii) a performance evaluation metric in determining achievement of certain executive incentive compensation programs, as well as for incentive compensation programs for employees.
Table 1 presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP operating income guidance. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
