Non-GAAP Measure Description Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance and enterprise value. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) attributable to The Marcus Corporation before investment income or loss, interest expense, other expense, gain or loss on disposition of property, equipment and other assets, equity earnings or losses from unconsolidated joint ventures, net earnings or losses attributable to noncontrolling interests, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. The following table sets forth our reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (in millions):
