 3  NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES  Within this document, the Company reports certain non-GAAP financial measures, including: (1) adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted net earnings, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted diluted earnings per share (which exclude divestiture & other related costs, operational improvement plan costs, and the results of operations divested or to be divested), (2) adjusted results by segment (which exclude divestiture & other related costs, operational improvement plan costs, and the results of operations divested or to be divested), (3) percentage changes in revenue, operating income, diluted earnings per share, and EBITDA on an adjusted local currency basis (which eliminate the effects that result from translating its international operations into U.S. dollars and exclude divestiture & other related costs, operational improvement plan costs, and the results of operations divested or to be divested), and (4) adjusted EBITDA (which excludes depreciation and amortization expense, non- cash share based compensation expense, the results of the product lines divested or to be divested, the divestiture & other related costs, and operational improvement plan costs). The Company has included each of these non-GAAP measures in order to provide additional information regarding the underlying operating results and comparable period-over-period performance. Such information is supplemental to information presented in accordance with GAAP and is not intended to represent a presentation in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation. Rather, they should be considered together with GAAP measures and the rest of the information included in this presentation and the Company’s SEC filings. Management internally reviews each of these non-GAAP measures to evaluate performance on a comparative period-to-period basis and to gain additional insight into underlying operating and performance trends, and the Company believes the information can be beneficial to investors for the same purposes. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this presentation for reconciliations and additional information.

In particular, we continued to see growth in the savory, sweet and natural ingredients product lines.

The operating income improvement was partially offset by lower volume in Personal Care and higher year-over-year Corporate expenses related to performance-based compensation.  * Local-currency adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted diluted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA are Non-GAAP metrics.
