Adjusted Operating Cash Flow (non-GAAP) is calculated as Operating Income (Loss) before Amortization of Intangible Assets and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets plus Depreciation Expense and Pension Expense. |
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(Unaudited)
In addition to the results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
- the ability to make meaningful period-to-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing results;
- the ability to identify trends in the Company’s underlying business; and
- a better understanding of how management plans and measures the Company’s underlying business.
Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Net income, excluding certain items, should not be considered substitutes or alternatives to computations calculated in accordance with and required by GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis.
