Safe Harbor Clause and Forward-Looking
Statements:
This press release includes forward-looking statements. All statements
other than statements of historical facts contained in this press
release, including statements regarding our future results of operations
and financial position, business strategy and plans, and our objectives
for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words
“anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“expose,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “possible,”
“potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar
expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes are
intended to identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of
these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based
on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments
and their potential effects on us. Future developments affecting us may
not be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements
involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our
control) and other assumptions that may cause actual results or
performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied
by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties
include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the
heading “Risk Factors” in our filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC), including our reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K and
other filings that we make with the SEC from time to time. Should one or
more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material
respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We
undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.
These risks and others described under “Risk Factors” in our SEC filings
may not be exhaustive.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances
that may or may not occur in the future. We caution you that
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and
that our actual results of operations, financial condition and
liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate may
differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking
statements contained in this press release. In addition, even if our
results or operations, financial condition and liquidity, and
developments in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the
forward-looking statements contained in this press release, those
results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments
in subsequent periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation
Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute
for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”).
It is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and
should not be considered as an alternative to revenue or net income
(loss), as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in
accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled
measures of other businesses. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an
analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP.
Some of these limitations include: (i) Non-cash compensation is and will
remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation
package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating its
ongoing operating performance for a particular period, (ii) Adjusted
EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting
from matters we consider not to be indicative of ongoing operations, and
(iii) other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA
differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative
measures.
We compensate for these limitations to Adjusted EBITDA by relying
primarily on its GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only for
supplemental purposes. Adjusted EBITDA includes adjustments for items
that may not occur in future periods. However, we believe these
adjustments are appropriate because the amounts recognized can vary
significantly from period to period, do not directly relate to the
ongoing operations of our business and complicate comparisons of our
internal operating results and operating results of other peer companies
over time. Each of the normal recurring adjustments and other
adjustments described in this paragraph help management with a measure
of our operating performance over time by removing items that are not
related to day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
