13 Appendix: Non-GAAP Financial Measures As used herein, "GAAP" refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This presentation includes certain non-GAAP measures, as defined under SEC rules, which are defined below. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Company has provided this supplemental information to investors, analysts, and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results, and to provide an additional measure of performance which management considers in operating the business. Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”) EBITDA represents the total of net income, interest expense, net, acquisition and integration-related expenses, net, purchase accounting effects, other expense, net, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense, as applicable, for the applicable period(s). EBITDA Margin EBITDA Margin represents EBITDA divided by net sales, for the applicable period(s). Net Debt Leverage The Company's net debt leverage ratio is calculated as net debt (total borrowings and finance lease obligations less cash and cash equivalents) divided by trailing twelve-month EBITDA. The Company is unable to provide forward-looking quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to any GAAP measure because the Company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the relevant periods. These forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures reflect management's current expectation and beliefs regarding the potential benefits of the proposed transaction.
