NYSE American: WLMS Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated through the application of GAAP and is not the required form of disclosure by the U . S . Securities and Exchange Commission . Adjusted EBITDA is the sum of the Company’s income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, net, and income tax (benefit) expense and unusual gains or charges . It also excludes non - cash charges such as depreciation and amortization and stock - based compensation . The Company’s management believes adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management, investors and others to evaluate and compare the performance of its core operations from period to period by removing the impact of the capital structure (interest), tangible and intangible asset base (depreciation and amortization), taxes and certain non - cash expenses and unusual gains or charges (such as stock - based compensation, severance costs, other professional fees, and foreign currency (gain) loss) which are not always commensurate with the reporting period in which such items are included . Williams’ credit facilities also contain ratios based on EBITDA . Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income or income from continuing operations or as a better measure of liquidity than net cash flows from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, and, therefore, should not be used in isolation from, but in conjunction with, the GAAP measures . The use of any non - GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non - GAAP measure used by other companies . Note Regarding Forward - Looking Non - GAAP Financial Measures The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non - GAAP financial measures in future periods . When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non - GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis . ▪ Supplemental Information
