information regarding the Company’s financial and operating results.
Groupon encourages investors to use its investor relations website as a
way of easily finding information about the company. Groupon promptly
makes available on this website, free of charge, the reports that the
company files or furnishes with the SEC, corporate governance
information (including Groupon’s Global Code of Conduct), and select
press releases and social media postings. Groupon uses its investor

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to financial results reported in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP), we have provided
the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release and the
accompanying tables: foreign exchange rate neutral operating results,
adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income attributable to common
stockholders, non-GAAP earnings per share and free cash flow. These
non-GAAP financial measures, which are presented on a continuing
operations basis, are intended to aid investors in better understanding
Groupon's current financial performance and its prospects for the future
as seen through the eyes of management. We believe that these non-GAAP
financial measures facilitate comparisons with our historical results
and with the results of peer companies who present similar measures
(although other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently than
we define them, even when similar terms are used to identify such
measures). However, non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be a
substitute for those reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For
reconciliations of these measures to the most applicable financial
measures under U.S. GAAP, see ''Non-GAAP Reconciliation Schedules'' and
''Supplemental Financial Information and Business Metrics'' included in
the tables accompanying this release.
We exclude the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP
financial measures:
Stock-based compensation. We exclude stock-based compensation
because it is primarily non-cash in nature and we believe that non-GAAP
financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental
information about our operating performance and liquidity.
Acquisition-related expense (benefit), net. Acquisition-related
expense (benefit), net is comprised of the change in the fair value of
contingent consideration arrangements and external transaction costs
related to business combinations, primarily consisting of legal and
advisory fees. The composition of our contingent consideration
arrangements and the impact of those arrangements on our operating
results vary over time based on a number of factors, including the terms
of our business combinations and the timing of those transactions. We
exclude acquisition-related expense (benefit), net because we believe
that non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful
supplemental information about our operating performance and facilitate
comparisons to our historical operating results.
Depreciation and amortization. We exclude depreciation and
amortization expenses because they are non-cash in nature and we believe
that non-GAAP financial measures excluding these items provide
meaningful supplemental information about our operating performance and
liquidity.
Interest and Other Non-Operating Items. Interest and other
non-operating items include: interest income, interest expense, gains
and losses related to minority investments, and foreign currency gains
and losses. We exclude interest and other non-operating items from
certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that
excluding these items provides meaningful supplemental information about
our core operating performance and facilitates comparisons to our
historical operating results.
Items That Are Unusual in Nature or Infrequently Occurring.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, items that we believe
to be unusual in nature or infrequently occurring were (a) charges
related to our restructuring program, (b) the gain on our disposition of
Groupon India, (c) the write-off of a prepaid asset related to a
marketing program that was discontinued because the counterparty ceased
operations and (d) the expense related to a significant increase in the
contingent liability for our securities litigation matter. We exclude
items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring because we
believe that excluding those items provides meaningful supplemental
information about our core operating performance and facilitates
comparisons to our historical results.
Descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release
and the accompanying tables are as follows:
Foreign exchange rate neutral operating results show our current
period operating results as if foreign currency exchange rates had
remained the same as those in effect in the prior-year period. We
present foreign exchange rate neutral information to facilitate
comparisons to our historical operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as
net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding income taxes,
interest and other non-operating items, depreciation and amortization,
stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expense (benefit), net and
other items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring. Our
definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures used by
other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such
measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by our management and
Board of Directors to evaluate operating performance, generate future
operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of
capital. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful
information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our
operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of
Directors.
Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and
non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share adjust our net income
(loss) attributable to common stockholders and earnings (loss) per share
to exclude the impact of:
-
stock-based compensation,
-
amortization of acquired intangible assets,
-
acquisition-related expense (benefit), net,
-
items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring,
-
non-operating foreign currency gains and losses related to
intercompany balances and reclassifications of cumulative translation
adjustments to earnings as a result of business dispositions or
country exits,
-
non-operating gains and losses from minority investments that we have
elected to record at fair value with changes in fair value reported in
earnings,
-
income (loss) from discontinued operations and
-
the income tax effect of those items.
We believe that excluding these items from our measures of non-GAAP net
income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP earnings
(loss) per share provides useful supplemental information for evaluating
our operating performance and facilitates comparisons to our historical
results by eliminating items that are non-cash in nature, relate to
discrete events or are otherwise not indicative of the core operating
performance of our ongoing business.
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that comprises net
cash provided by (used in) operating activities from continuing
operations less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized
software from continuing operations. We use free cash flow to conduct
and evaluate our business because, although it is similar to cash flow
from operations, we believe that it typically represents a more useful
measure of cash flows because purchases of fixed assets, software
developed for internal-use and website development costs are necessary
components of our ongoing operations. Free cash flow is not intended to
represent the total increase or decrease in Groupon's cash balance for
the applicable period.
