We have included these measures because we believe they are indicative of our operating performance, are used by investors and analysts to evaluate us and can facilitate comparisons across periods. As presented by us, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, Conversion Ratio and Net Debt should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, and Net Debt to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, see the appendix slides.
