Copyright 2019 CPI Card Group Non-GAAP Measures 14 Non-GAAP Financial Information In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures in this presentation, all on a continuing operations basis: Income from Operations excluding litigation settlement gain, Operating margin excluding litigation settlement gain, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. Income from Operations excluding litigation settlement gain is defined as income from operations adjusted for a litigation settlement gain the second quarter of 2019. Operating margin excluding litigation settlement gain is defined as Income from Operations excluding litigation settlement gain as a percentage of total net sales for the period. The Company provides Income from Operations excluding litigation settlement gain and Operating margin excluding litigation settlement gain because the Company believes these measures present a transparent view of our recurring operating performance and allow management to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and identify strategies to improve operating performance. Management also believes these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization all on a continuing operations basis. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, adjusted for litigation and related charges incurred in connection with certain patent and shareholder litigation; a litigation settlement gain in the second quarter of 2019; stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other charges; foreign currency gain or loss; and other items that are unusual in nature, infrequently occurring or not considered part of our core operations, as set forth in the reconciliation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net loss or loss before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, as those items are used to measure operating performance, liquidity or the ability to service debt obligations. The Company believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA present a transparent view of our recurring operating performance and allow management to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons, and identify strategies to improve operating performance. Management also believes these measures are useful to investors in their analysis of our results of operations and provide improved comparability between fiscal periods. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as CPI defines them, may not be comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures used by other entities. We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures adjusted for cash received from a litigation settlement gain in the second quarter of 2019. We use this metric in analyzing our ability to service and repay our debt and to forecast future periods. However, this measure does not represent funds available for investment or other discretionary uses since it does not deduct cash used to service our debt. Further, management and various investors use the ratio of total debt, plus capital lease obligations, plus unreimbursed letters of credit, less cash to last twelve months (LTM) Adjusted EBITDA, or “Net Leverage Ratio,” as a measure of our financial strength and ability to incur incremental indebtedness when making key investment decisions and evaluating us against peers. Net leverage ratio is defined in our First Lien Credit Facility. Available liquidity is considered cash plus available revolver both as of the end of the period. Weighted average effective interest rate is computed as interest expense for the quarter divided by debt of $312.5 million multiplied by four. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures included herein. Additional information relating to certain financial measures, including our Non-GAAP financial measures, is available in our most recent earnings release and on our website at http://investor.cpicardgroup.com
