Adjusted operating earnings represents operating earnings (loss) excluding impairment charges.

Neiman Marcus, Inc. believes reporting adjusted operating earnings is a more meaningful representation of the Company’s on-going economic performance and therefore uses adjusted reporting internally to evaluate and manage the Company’s operations. Neiman Marcus, Inc. has chosen to provide this information to investors to enable them to perform more meaningful comparisons of operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of on-going operations. Adjusted operating earnings is not a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjusted operating earnings should not be considered as an alternative to operating earnings (loss) or net earnings (loss) as a measure of operating performance or cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted operating earnings should not be considered in isolation to, or as a substitute for, analysis of the Company’s results reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Adjusted operating earnings as presented herein are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We present the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we use these measures to monitor and evaluate the performance of our business and believe the presentation of these measures will enhance investors’ ability to analyze trends in our business, evaluate our performance relative to other companies in our industry and evaluate our ability to service our debt. In addition, we use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as components of the measurement of incentive compensation.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP and this computation may vary from others in the industry. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA contain some, but not all, adjustments that are taken into account in the calculation of the components of various covenants in the agreements and indentures governing the Company’s senior secured Asset-Based Revolving Credit Facility, Senior Secured Term Loan Facility, Senior Notes and Senior Subordinated Notes. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to operating earnings (loss) or net earnings (loss) as measures of operating performance or cash flows as measures of liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation to, or as a substitute for, analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements, for working capital needs; do not reflect our considerable interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on the Company’s debt; exclude tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available; and do not reflect any cash requirements for assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future.
