2016 Full Year Guidance

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes the following financial measures defined as “Non-GAAP financial measures” by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): Net Revenue, Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS. Net revenue is calculated as total revenue less transportation costs.  Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense is defined as selling, general and administrative expense excluding commission expense, changes in contingent consideration payable, acquisition-related transaction costs and stock compensation expense.  Non-GAAP EBITDA and Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin are defined as net income and operating margin, respectively, excluding the effects of changes in contingent consideration payable, depreciation, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, stock compensation expense, cash and noncash interest expense, other expense, Term Loan B commitment fees and income taxes.  Non-GAAP operating income is defined as operating income excluding changes in contingent consideration payable, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, and stock compensation expense.  Non-GAAP net income is defined as net income excluding changes in contingent consideration payable, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, stock compensation expense, noncash interest expense and Term Loan B commitment fees, net of their related tax impact.  Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS is defined as fully diluted EPS excluding changes in contingent consideration payable, amortization, acquisition-related transaction costs, noncash interest expense, stock compensation expense, Term Loan B commitment fees, net of their related tax impact. We believe such measures provide useful information to investors because they provide information about the financial performance of the Company’s ongoing business.

Net Revenue, Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense, Non-GAAP EBITDA, Non-GAAP EBITDA Margin, Non-GAAP Operating Income, Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Fully Diluted EPS are used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and evaluation of overall operating performance. These measures may be different from similar measures used by other companies. The presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in

accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest comparable GAAP financial measure, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included in this release.
