Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), thispress release includes certain financial information of the combined company in this release that are not prescribed by or preparedin accordance with GAAP. We utilize these non-GAAP financial measures as supplements to financial measures determined inaccordance with GAAP when evaluating operating performance and we believe that these measures will be used by certaininvestors to evaluate operating results. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful informationabout performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding certain items, which may be favorable orunfavorable. Despite the importance of these measures to management in goal setting and performance measurement, these are non-GAAPfinancial measures that have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and, therefore, have limits in their usefulness toinvestors. Because of the non-standardized definitions, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA (unlike GAAP net income and its components)may differ from, and may not be comparable to, the calculation of similar measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financialmeasures are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management assesses performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes for, or superior to, financial measurescalculated in accordance with GAAP. We are not providing reconciliations of projected non-GAAP financial measures to GAAPfinancial measures, nor are we providing comparable projected GAAP financial measures for such projected non-GAAP financialmeasures. We are unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable efforts due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting andquantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for assetimpairments, contingent consideration adjustments, legal settlements, gain / loss on extinguishment of debt, adjustments toinventory and other charges reflected in the reconciliation of historic numbers, the amounts of which could be significant.
