We note your prolific use of non-GAAP measures in your discussion of your results of operations with little to no discussion of your GAAP measures of profitability, such as Net Income. We also note that elsewhere in your document you discuss the impact of events on EBITDA, such as the customer product transition in your surface protection business, without disclosing the actual and expected impact on Net Income. In future filings beginning with your next quarterly report, please revise to also include discussions of the most directly comparable GAAP measures with equal or greater prominence.
