Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As a supplement to United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("GAAP"), the Company provides non-GAAP financial measures
such as operating income before provision for income taxes ("EBIT"),
operating net income, operating earnings per share ("EPS"), revenues
excluding foreign currency, adjusted operating income, Earnings Before
Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Operating
EBITDA and free cash flow to illustrate the Company's operational
performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in
accordance with GAAP, are not reported by all of the Company's
competitors and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled
measures of the Company's competitors due to potential differences in
the exact method of calculation. However, each of the amounts included
in the calculation of non-GAAP financial measures are computed in
accordance with GAAP. See below for reconciliations to the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measures.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures (a) to evaluate the
Company's historical and prospective financial performance as well as
its performance relative to its competitors, (b) to set internal sales
targets and associated operating budgets, (c) to allocate resources and
(d) to measure operational profitability. Management uses similar
non-GAAP measures as an important factor in determining variable
compensation for Management and its team members.
Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an
alternative for, GAAP financial measures. The Company's non-GAAP
financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures, and should be read
only in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Operating EBIT, operating net income and operating EPS
Management believes that operating EBIT, defined by the Company as net
income (loss) plus provision (benefit) for income taxes and adjustments,
operating net income, defined by the Company as operating EBIT less
operational income taxes, and operating EPS, defined as operating net
income divided by weighted average common shares outstanding (diluted),
provide investors additional important information to enable them to
assess, in the way Management assesses, the Company's current and future
operations. Adjustments include intangibles amortization, the change in
fair value of the interest-rate swaps, goodwill impairment loss and the
joint venture investment loss, each of which are non-cash charges, and
restructuring, which is a cash charge.
A reconciliation of Net income (loss) to operating EBIT and Operating
net income is presented below:

Management believes that Adjusted operating income, defined by the

additional important information to enable them to assess, in the way
Management assesses, the Company's current and future operations.
Adjustments include intangibles amortization, goodwill impairment loss
and restructuring expense.

(1) These results reflect a reclassification of expense that reduced
Operating income (loss) and Adjusted operating income in North America
Products by $804, $1,218 and $1,686 in 4Q14, FY15 and FY14,
respectively, with a corresponding increase of the same amounts for
Operating income (loss) and Adjusted operating income in North America
Services. This reclassification had no effect on our consolidated
financial results.
EBITDA and Operating EBITDA
Management believes that EBITDA, defined as Net income (loss) plus
provision (benefit) for income taxes, interest, depreciation and
amortization, is a widely-accepted measure of profitability that may be
used to measure the Company's ability to service its debt. Operating
EBITDA, defined as EBITDA plus stock compensation expense, the goodwill
impairment loss and the joint venture investment loss may also be used
to measure the Company's ability to service its debt.
A reconciliation of Net income (loss) to EBITDA and Operating EBITDA is
presented below:

Free cash flow
Management believes that free cash flow, defined by the Company as Net
cash provided by (used for) operating activities less net capital
expenditures, plus Proceeds from stock option exercises, plus or minus
Foreign currency exchange impact on cash, is an important measurement of
liquidity as it represents the total cash available to the Company.
A reconciliation of Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities
to free cash flow is presented below:
