ADJUSTED CONSOLIDATED SALES GROWTH

(Unaudited)

(In thousands)

 

 

Management believes that presentation of sales growth, adjusted to eliminate the effects of acquisitions, divestitures, the impact of currency translation, conforming the fiscal reporting period of a subsidiary to that of the Company in fiscal 2007 and the estimated impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2008, provides useful information to investors because it enhances comparability between the current year and prior year reporting periods. Elimination of the currency translation effect provides constant currency comparisons without the distortion of currency rate fluctuations.

Although ARAMARK Corporation continued as the same legal entity after the going-private transaction (the “Transaction”), the consolidated statements of income are presented for two periods: Predecessor and Successor, which relate to the period preceding the Transaction and the period succeeding the Transaction, respectively. The Company refers to the operations of ARAMARK Corporation and subsidiaries for both the Predecessor and Successor periods. We have prepared our supplementary discussion of the results of operations for the three and twelve months ended October 3, 2008 by comparing the three months ended October 3, 2008 to the three months ended September 28, 2007 and the twelve months ended October 3, 2008 to the mathematical combination of the Successor and Predecessor periods in the twelve months ended September 28, 2007. Although this presentation does not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we believe that it provides a meaningful method of comparison because it enables us to compare our consolidated results over equivalent periods of time. The combined operating results have not been prepared as pro forma results under applicable regulations and may not reflect the actual results we would have achieved absent the Transaction and may not be predictive of future results of operations.

ADJUSTED FOOD AND SUPPORT SERVICES—INTERNATIONAL OPERATING INCOME GROWTH

(Unaudited)

(In thousands)

 

 

Management believes that presentation of operating income growth, adjusted to eliminate increased amortization of acquisition-related customer relationship intangible assets resulting from the going-private transaction (the “Transaction”), provides useful information to investors because it enhances comparability between the current year and prior year reporting periods.

Although ARAMARK Corporation continued as the same legal entity after the going-private transaction (the “Transaction”), the consolidated statements of income are presented for two periods: Predecessor and Successor, which relate to the period preceding the Transaction and the period succeeding the Transaction, respectively. The Company refers to the operations of ARAMARK Corporation and subsidiaries for both the Predecessor and Successor periods. We have prepared our supplementary discussion of the results of operations for the three and twelve months ended October 3, 2008 by comparing the three months ended October 3, 2008 to the three months ended September 28, 2007 and the twelve months ended October 3, 2008 to the mathematical combination of the Successor and Predecessor periods in the twelve months ended September 28, 2007. Although this presentation does not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we believe that it provides a meaningful method of comparison because it enables us to compare our consolidated results over equivalent periods of time. The combined operating results have not been prepared as pro forma results under applicable regulations and may not reflect the actual results we would have achieved absent the Transaction and may not be predictive of future results of operations.

Management believes that presentation of corporate expenses, adjusted to eliminate charges related to the going-private transaction (the “Transaction”), stock-based compensation under SFAS 123R and a currency transaction gain in 2007, provides useful information to investors because it enhances comparability between the current year and prior year reporting periods.

Although ARAMARK Corporation continued as the same legal entity after the going-private transaction (the “Transaction”), the consolidated statements of income are presented for two periods: Predecessor and Successor, which relate to the period preceding the Transaction and the period succeeding the Transaction, respectively.

ADJUSTED EBITDA

(Unaudited)

The following is a reconciliation of net income, which is a GAAP measure of our operating results, to Adjusted EBITDA as defined in our debt agreements. The terms and related calculations are defined in the Company’s senior secured credit agreement and indenture. Management believes that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information about the calculation of certain financial covenants in the Company’s senior secured credit agreement and the indenture. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these covenants. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not presentations made in accordance with GAAP, are not measures of financial performance or condition, liquidity or profitability, and should not be considered as an alternative to (1) net income, operating income or any other performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP or (2) operating cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements.
