TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On July 23, 2007, Digi International Inc. (the “Company”) reported its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007. See the Company’s press release dated July 23, 2007, which is furnished as Exhibit 99 and incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Certain information the Company intends to disclose on the conference call scheduled for 5:00 p.m. eastern time on July 23, 2007, includes earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization as a percentage of net sales, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of this measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included below.
Management understands that there are material limitations on the use of non-GAAP measures. The use of EBTDA does not reflect the Company’s cash expenditures, the cash requirements for the replacement of depreciated and amortized assets, or changes in or cash requirements for the Company’s working capital needs. Additionally, measures of EBTDA, including EBTDA as a percentage of net sales, may be calculated differently from company to company, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Management nevertheless believes that the presentation of EBTDA as a percentage of net sales is useful to investors because it provides a reliable and consistent approach to measuring the Company’s performance from year to year and in assessing the Company’s performance against other companies. Management believes that such information helps investors compare operating results and corporate performance exclusive of the impact of the Company’s capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired. Management believes that EBTDA as a percentage of net sales is not only useful for the Company in measuring and monitoring internal performance, but it is also widely used by analysts and investors to assess the Company’s performance. The Company uses EBTDA as a percentage of net sales as a key performance indicator of how the Company is performing compared to prior periods and compared to the Company’s operating plan. Furthermore, the Company’s incentive compensation plans use EBTDA to measure operating performance, which is a factor that the most employees have the ability to influence.
