1 The Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures "EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" in assessing its results because the Company believes that these measures are relevant and useful supplemental information for our investors. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, provides a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company than could be obtained absent these disclosures. The Company's use of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is not meant to be, and should not be, considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, any GAAP financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Adjusted EBITDA Margin (see Slide 11) represents Adjusted EBITDA / Revenue.
