We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our\nbusiness operations.\n\nThe non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are\nsupplemental measures of our performance and our liquidity that we believe\nhelp investors understand our financial condition and operating results and\nassess our future prospects. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP\nfinancial measures, in addition to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial\nmeasures, are important supplemental measures that exclude non-cash or other\nitems that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating\nresults and the overall health of our company. We believe that these non-GAAP\nfinancial measures provide investors greater transparency to the information\nused by management for its operational decision-making and allow investors to\nsee our results \"through the eyes of management.\" We further believe that\nproviding this information assists our investors in understanding our\noperating performance and the methodology used by management to evaluate and\nmeasure such performance. When read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results,\nthese non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in\nour underlying businesses and can be used by management as one basis for\nfinancial, operational, and planning decisions. Finally, these measures are\noften used by analysts and other interested parties to evaluate companies in\nour industry.\n\nWe define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net,\nincome tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, further adjusted\nfor certain non-cash items that we may record each period, as well as\nnon-recurring items such as transaction costs and other deal related expenses,\nacquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, share-based\ncompensation expense, when applicable. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as\nAdjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and\nAdjusted EBITDA margin are important metrics for management and investors as\nthey remove the impact of items that we do not believe are indicative of our\ncore operating results or the overall health of our company and allows for\nconsistent comparison of our operating results over time and relative to our\npeers.\n\nWe define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating\nactivities less capital expenditures. We believe this measure allows\nmanagement and investors to evaluate the capacity of our operations to\ngenerate cash that is available to service debt and make strategic investments\nand acquisitions.\n\nManagement recognizes that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations,\nincluding that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be\nused under different circumstances or for different purposes, thereby\naffecting their comparability from company to company. To compensate for these\nand the other limitations discussed below, management does not consider these\nmeasures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial\nmeasures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The reconciliations to their\nmost directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures follow. Readers should\nreview the reconciliations below and should not rely on any single financial\nmeasure to evaluate our business. Unless otherwise noted, tables are presented\nin U.S. dollars in thousands. Certain columns and rows within tables may not\nadd due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented in this report\nare calculated from the underlying numbers in thousands.\n\nFORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS\n\nThis release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the\nPrivate Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws\nthat are subject to risks and uncertainties.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our\nbusiness operations.\n\nThe non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release are\nsupplemental measures of our performance and our liquidity that we believe\nhelp investors understand our financial condition and operating results and\nassess our future prospects. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP\nfinancial measures, in addition to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial\nmeasures, are important supplemental measures that exclude non-cash or other\nitems that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to our core operating\nresults and the overall health of our company. We believe that these non-GAAP\nfinancial measures provide investors greater transparency to the information\nused by management for its operational decision-making and allow investors to\nsee our results \"through the eyes of management.\" We further believe that\nproviding this information assists our investors in understanding our\noperating performance and the methodology used by management to evaluate and\nmeasure such performance. When read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results,\nthese non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in\nour underlying businesses and can be used by management as one basis for\nfinancial, operational, and planning decisions. Finally, these measures are\noften used by analysts and other interested parties to evaluate companies in\nour industry.\n\nWe define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net,\nincome tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, further adjusted\nfor certain non-cash items that we may record each period, as well as\nnon-recurring items such as transaction costs and other deal related expenses,\nacquisition and integration costs, restructuring costs, share-based\ncompensation expense, when applicable. We define Adjusted EBITDA margin as\nAdjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and\nAdjusted EBITDA margin are important metrics for management and investors as\nthey remove the impact of items that we do not believe are indicative of our\ncore operating results or the overall health of our company and allows for\nconsistent comparison of our operating results over time and relative to our\npeers.\n\nWe define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating\nactivities less capital expenditures. We believe this measure allows\nmanagement and investors to evaluate the capacity of our operations to\ngenerate cash that is available to service debt and make strategic investments\nand acquisitions.\n\nManagement recognizes that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations,\nincluding that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be\nused under different circumstances or for different purposes, thereby\naffecting their comparability from company to company. To compensate for these\nand the other limitations discussed below, management does not consider these\nmeasures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial\nmeasures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The reconciliations to their\nmost directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures follow. Readers should\nreview the reconciliations below and should not rely on any single financial\nmeasure to evaluate our business. Unless otherwise noted, tables are presented\nin U.S. dollars in thousands. Certain columns and rows within tables may not\nadd due to the use of rounded numbers. Percentages presented in this report\nare calculated from the underlying numbers in thousands.\n\nFORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS\n\nThis release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the\nPrivate Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws\nthat are subject to risks and uncertainties.
