(1)The primary measure of segment operating performance is Adjusted EBIT, which is defined as net income before interest, taxes and select other items impacting operating results. These other items impacting operating results are items that management has concluded are (1) non-cash items included within net income, (2) items the Company does not believe are indicative of ongoing operating performance or (3) non-recurring, unusual or infrequent items that have not occurred within the last two years or we believe are not reasonably likely to recur within the next two years. Adjusted EBIT is a key metric that is used by management to evaluate business performance in comparison to budgets, forecasts and prior year financial results, providing a measure that management believes reflects the Company’s core operating performance, which represents Adjusted EBIT adjusted for the select items referred to above.
(2)
Does not represent Adjusted EBIT referenced elsewhere by the Company as there are additional adjustments that are not allocated to the segments.
(a)Represents expenses and associated changes to estimates related to the prepayment, restructuring, and refinancing of our indebtedness, which are not considered indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(b)Represents expenses and associated changes to estimates related to employee termination benefits and other employee-related costs. Employee termination benefits are primarily associated with Axalta Way initiatives. These amounts are not considered indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(c)
Represents costs for legal, tax and other advisory fees pertaining to our review of strategic alternatives that was concluded in March 2020, as well as retention awards for certain employees that were earned over a period of 18-24 months, which ended during September 2021. These amounts are not considered indicative of our ongoing performance.
(d)Represents acquisition and divestiture-related expenses and non-cash fair value inventory adjustments associated with our business combinations, all of which are not considered indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(e)Represents impairment (benefits) charges, which are not considered indicative of our ongoing performance. The current year benefit primarily reflects a recovered gain on a previously impaired asset.
(f)Represents certain defined benefit pension costs associated with special events, including pension curtailments, settlements and special termination benefits, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(g)Represents incremental depreciation expense resulting from truncated useful lives of the assets impacted by our manufacturing footprint assessments, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(h)Represents indemnity income associated with acquisitions, which we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(i)Represents expenses, changes in estimates and insurance recoveries for probable liabilities related to an operational matter in the Mobility Coatings segment discussed further in Note 6, which is not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
(j)Represents non-recurring income related to a law change with respect to certain Brazilian indirect taxes which was recorded within other (income) expense, net.
(k)Represents non-recurring income related to the sale of a previously closed manufacturing facility.
