Exhibit 99.1 |
 Cautionary Note About Forward-Looking Statements
-
2
-
This
presentation
includes
"forward-looking
statements”
within
the
meaning
of
Section
27A
of
the
Securities
Act
of
1933,
as
amended,
and
Section
21E
of
the
Securities
Exchange
Act
of
1934,
as
amended,
which
involve
uncertainties and risks. Forward-looking statements include statements
concerning our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future
revenues, future results and performance, expectations, plans or intentions relating
to acquisitions and other matters, business trends and other information that is
not historical, including statements regarding estimates of our future
financial results. When used in this presentation, words such as “estimates,”
“expects,”
“anticipates,”
“projects,”
“plans,”
“intends,”
“believes,”
“forecasts”
and variations of such words or similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All
forward-looking statements, including, without limitation,
estimates
of
our
future
financial
results,
are
based
upon
our
expectations
at
the
time
we
make
them
and
various assumptions. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in
good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However,
there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs and
estimates will be achieved, and the Company’s actual results may differ from
our expectations, beliefs and estimates. The Company has experienced
fluctuating revenues, operating income and cash flow in prior periods and
expects that this will occur from time to time in the future. Other factors that
could cause such differences include declines in demand for, or changes in,
the mix of services and products that we offer, the mix of the geographic
locations where our clients are located or where services are performed, adverse
financial, real estate or other market and general economic conditions,
which could impact each of our segments differently, the pace and timing of
the consummation and integration of past and future acquisitions, the Company's ability to realize cost savings
and efficiencies, competitive and general economic conditions, retention of staff
and clients and other risks described under
the
heading
“Item
1A.
Risk
Factors”
in
the
Company’s
most
recent
Form
10-K
and
in
the
Company's
other
filings
with
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission,
including
the
risks
set
forth
under
“Risks
Related
to
Our
Business
Segments”
and
“Risks
Related
to
Our
Operations”.
We
are
under
no
duty
to
update
any
of
the
forward-
looking statements to conform such statements to actual results or events and do
not intend to do so. |

(1) We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income
before income tax provision, other income
(expense), depreciation, amortization of intangible
assets and special charges. Amounts presented in
the Adjusted EBITDA column for each segment
reflect the segments' respective Adjusted
Segment EBITDA. We define Adjusted Segment
EBITDA as the segments' share of consolidated
operating income before depreciation,
amortization of intangible assets and special
charges. Although Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
Segment EBITDA are not measures of financial
condition or performance determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"), we believe that these
measures can be a useful operating performance
measure for evaluating our results of operations
as compared from period to period and as
compared to our competitors. We use Adjusted
EBITDA and Adjusted Segment EBITDA to
evaluate and compare the operating performance
of our segments.
