Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
The investor presentation included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report may be presented at meetings with investors, analysts, and others, in whole or in part and possibly with modifications, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
The investor presentation includes financial information not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as required by Regulation G, is available within Exhibit 99.1 and on our website at www.ctscorp.com. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide investors additional ways to view our operations which we believe provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent these disclosures. We believe the non-GAAP financial measures also provide investors a useful tool to assess shareholder value.
By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K and furnishing the information contained herein, the Company makes no admission as to the materiality of any information in this report that is required to be disclosed solely by reason of Regulation FD.
The information contained in the investor presentation is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings and other public announcements that the Company may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time. The Company undertakes no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise the information contained in this report, although it may do so from time to time as its management believes is warranted. Any such updating may be made through the filing of other reports or documents with the SEC, through press releases or through other public disclosure.
The information presented in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, unless the Company specifically states that the information is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or specifically incorporates it by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
