The investor presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under Regulation G of the rules and regulations of the SEC. These non-GAAP financial measures contained in the presentation include a presentation of Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders (“Adjusted Net Income”) and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted Net Income equals net income attributable to common shareholders (“Net Income”) less after-tax effect of 2011 gain on purchase price settlement and certain tax adjustments. All adjustments are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Adjusted EBITDA equals Net Income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity compensation expense and above mentioned adjustment to arrive at Adjusted Net Income. See the last pages of the investor presentation which includes a reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes providing these non-GAAP financial measurements to investors are useful information for comparing the Company’s period-to-period results.
