"Forward-looking statements" generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "project," "will," "expect," "goal," "positioned," or "continue" (or the negative or other derivatives of each of these terms) or similar terminology. The "forward-looking statements" include, without limitation, statements regarding the acquisition’s expected impact on earnings per share and free cash flow per share for fiscal 2015 and the Company’s expectations that the acquisition will be immediately accretive to earnings per share and cash flow, exclusive of transaction, integration and purchase accounting items. These statements are based on management's estimates and assumptions with respect to future events and financial performance and are believed to be reasonable, though are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including the impact of foreign exchange, general economic and business conditions, our ability to successfully integrate the Insight brands into our business, competitive pressures, unexpected costs, liabilities and disruptions resulting from the integration, or adverse changes in the laws or regulations where Insight products are sold. A discussion of other factors that could cause results to vary is included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014 and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Pro Forma Projected Full Fiscal Year 2015 Financial Measures

Pro forma adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is arrived at by taking pro forma net income of $89 million and adding back depreciation and amortization of $31 million, interest expense of $103 million, taxes of $52 million, and $25 million of transaction, integration and other items to arrive at projected non-GAAP pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $300 million. This assumes ownership of both the Insight and Hydralyte acquisitions for the full year. We are presenting this pro forma information as supplemental disclosure because we believe it is a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of the business without the effect of these items.
