Operating Metrics
This communication includes certain operating metrics that are defined below.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, net, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, excluding the impact of share-based compensation expense as well as (gain) loss on sale-leaseback transactions, capital transaction costs, legal settlements, asset impairment, severance and other items that are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operations. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, net of construction reimbursements, plus net proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions and land sales. Net debt is defined as long-term debt, net of current portion, plus current maturities of debt, excluding fair value adjustments, unamortized debt discounts and issuance costs, minus cash and cash equivalents. Our leverage ratio is calculated as our net debt divided by our trailing twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA.
There can be no assurance that the Company will not modify the presentation of these operating metrics in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, the Company’s operating metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in the Company’s industry or across different industries.
