The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the MSCI USA ESG Leaders Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation
S-K
included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2022. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting July 23, 2020, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the MSCI USA ESG Leaders Index, respectively. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.
 
(5)
We determined Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEO and
Non-PEO
NEOs in 2022. Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-GAAP
measure that adds back
non-recurring
expenses. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, represents net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain other items, including stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs and fair value-related changes, as set forth in greater detail in our quarterly and annual earnings releases furnished to the SEC as exhibits to Current Reports on Form 8-K
