These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures in the tables above. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus net interest expense (benefit), income tax expense and depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment expense. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides additional information with respect to both the performance of our fundamental business activities and our ability to meet our capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by U.S. GAAP and, as such, should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss). PATTERSON-UTI ENERGY, INC.
