(1) | Working capital is current assets minus current liabilities. |
(2) | 12-month backlog is defined as confirmed orders we believe will be recognized as revenue in the next twelve months. |
(3) | We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. We define free cash flow conversion as free cash flow divided by net earnings. |
(4) | We define EBITDA as net earnings before income taxes, interest and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA is a useful supplement to net earnings in understanding our performance and our ability to meet our future debt service costs and capital expenditure requirements. EBITDA does not represent net earnings as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and is not a measure of performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings, net cash provided by operating activities or other measures as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as a measure of our performance or liquidity. Our definition of EBITDA may differ from the definition of EBITDA used by other companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. |
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented as EBITDA before goodwill impairment, restructuring charges, non-cash expense for equity-based awards to our directors, officers and key employees, loss on a business divestiture, premium paid to call our senior subordinated notes, earnings or write downs attributed to equity investments and income recorded for acquisition-related earnout adjustments.
However, Adjusted EBITDA does not represent income or net cash provided by operating activities as defined by GAAP. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities, net earnings or other measures as determined in accordance with GAAP as an indication of our operating performance or as a measure of our liquidity. Moreover, Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs, including debt service, and such measures as presented herein may differ from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Set forth below is our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

Capitalization
The following table sets forth our consolidated cash and cash equivalents and capitalization as of September 27, 2014 (i) on an actual basis and (ii) as adjusted to give effect to the Company’s previously announced proposed offering of $250.0 million of senior notes offered pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Offering”), including application of the net proceeds therefrom.

(1) | On May 22, 2014, the senior bank credit facility final maturity was extended to May 22, 2019. Assuming that the closing of the Offering and the application of the estimated net proceeds therefrom had occurred on September 27, 2014, we would have had $566.2 million of availability under our senior bank credit facility (after deducting approximately $14.3 million of letters of credit outstanding) as of such date. |
As of September 27, 2014, after giving effect to the Offering and the application of the net proceeds therefrom, we would have had total debt of $878.5 million (of which approximately $624.7 million would be secured), we would have had $566.2 million available for borrowing under our senior bank credit facility (after deducting approximately $14.3 million of letters of credit outstanding).
Other Financial Information
In fiscal 2014, 24% of our sales came from our European operations, 6% from our Asian operations, and the balance were generated from the Americas, predominantly the United States. Furthermore, we have maintained our balanced geographic presence as we have grown over the past ten years. In fiscal 2004, for example, our U.S. operations accounted for 57% of our total sales of $939 million, as compared with 60% of our fiscal 2009 sales of $1,849 million, and 59% of our fiscal 2014 sales of $2,648 million. Our remaining sales have come from a number of key international markets, including Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan and China.
On August 13, 2014, we announced that our Board of Directors has amended our previously announced share repurchase program to include an additional 5,000,000 shares. The program, originally authorized on January 24, 2014, included the authorization to repurchase an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of its Class A and Class B common stock at management’s discretion. Under the program, 4,868,274 shares have been purchased as of November 10, 2014 for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $332.5 million. After giving effect to the increase in authority, we will be able to acquire an aggregate of 4,131,726 additional shares of its Class A and Class B common stock at management’s discretion. The transactions will be made in accordance with rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and other rules that govern such purchases.
