All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Annual Report, including statements regarding the Company's future financial condition, results of operations, business operations and business prospects, are forward-looking statements. Words such as anticipate, estimate, expect, project, intend, plan, predict, believe and similar words, expressions and variations of these words and expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other important factors that could significantly impact results or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

About Non-GAAP Measures The following slides include non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share as supplemental information relating to Kewaunee’s operating results. Adjusted net earnings represent GAAP net earnings adjusted for net pension settlement expenses and the impact of a valuation allowance release. This financial information is not in accordance with, or an alternative fact for, GAAP-compliant financial information and may be different from the operating or non- GAAP financial information used by other companies. The Company believes that this presentation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share provides useful information to investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA is calculated as net earnings (loss), less interest expense and interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA less the impact of the one-time costs incurred for the pension termination enacted during FY24. We believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA allow management and investors to compare our performance to other companies on a consistent basis without regard to depreciation and amortization or the costs incurred related to our one- time pension termination transaction executed during fiscal year 2024, which can vary significantly between companies depending upon many factors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not calculations based upon generally accepted accounting principles, and the method for calculating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA can vary among companies. The amounts included in the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA calculations, however, are derived from amounts included in the historical consolidated statements of operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net earnings (loss) or operating earnings (loss) as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
