Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes references to non-GAAP financial
measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and
adjusted net income per diluted share (the “Company’s Non-GAAP
Financial Measures”). These non-GAAP financial measures are not
based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles
and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to,
financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may be
different from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures used by
other companies. In addition, the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial
Measures should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial
statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The reconciliations of
the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the corresponding GAAP
measures should be carefully evaluated.
The Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures are non-GAAP measures
of the Company’s operating performance and should not be considered
as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial
performance or any other performance measure derived in accordance
with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an inference that the
Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or
nonrecurring items. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before
interest expense, net, income tax provision, depreciation and
amortization expense, (gain) loss on sale of assets, net,
stock-based compensation expense and related taxes, acquisition
expenses, non-cash rent expense, loss on extinguishment of debt,
and other nonrecurring charges. Adjusted net income is defined as
net income before (gain) loss on sale of assets, net, stock-based
compensation expense, acquisition expenses, non-cash rent expense,
loss on extinguishment of debt, other nonrecurring charges, income
tax impact of stock award exercises and the tax impact of
adjustments to net income. Adjusted net income per share is defined
as basic net income per share before (gain) loss on sale of assets,
net, stock-based compensation expense and related taxes,
acquisition expenses, non-cash rent expense, loss on extinguishment
of debt, other nonrecurring charges, income tax impact of stock
award exercises and the tax impact of adjustments to basic net
income per share. Adjusted net income per diluted share is defined
as diluted net income per share before (gain) loss on sale of
assets, net, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition
expenses, non-cash rent expense, loss on extinguishment of debt,
other nonrecurring charges, income tax impact of stock award
exercises and the tax impact of adjustments to basic net income per
share.
Management believes the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures
assist investors and analysts in comparing the Company’s operating
performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by
excluding items that management does not believe are indicative of
the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Investors are
encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons the
Company considers them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In
evaluating the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures, investors
should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses
that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in the
Company’s presentation of the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial
Measures. There can be no assurance that the Company will not
modify the presentation of the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial
Measures in future periods, and any such modification may be
material.
Management believes that the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial
Measures are helpful in highlighting trends in the Company’s core
operating performance compared to other measures, which can differ
significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding
capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which the Company
operates, and capital investments. Management also uses adjusted
EBITDA in connection with establishing discretionary annual
incentive compensation; to supplement U.S. GAAP measures of
performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s
business strategies; to make budgeting decisions, and because the
Company’s credit facilities use measures similar to adjusted EBITDA
to measure the Company’s compliance with certain covenants.
The Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as
analytical tools, and investors should not consider these measures
in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company’s
results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations
include, for example, adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: the
Company’s cash expenditure or future requirements for capital
expenditures or contractual commitments; the Company’s cash
requirements for the Company’s working capital needs; the interest
expense and the cash requirements necessary to service interest or
principal payments on the Company’s debt, cash requirements for
replacement of assets that are being depreciated and amortized, and
the impact of certain cash charges or cash receipts resulting from
matters management does not find indicative of the Company’s
ongoing operations.
The Company is not providing a reconciliation of the fiscal 2024
outlook for adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted net
income per diluted share because we are unable to predict with
reasonable certainty the reconciling items that may affect the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable
efforts. The amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations,
including acquisition expenses, other expenses, and the other
adjustments reflected, are uncertain, depend on various factors,
and could significantly impact, either individually or in the
aggregate, the GAAP measures.

affect our business, financial condition and results of operations

regulations related to credit card and debit card payments we
accept; an overall decline in the health of the economy and other
factors impacting consumer spending, such as natural disasters and

business, results of operations and financial condition; inflation,
supply chain disruption and other increased operating costs could

substantial control over us; our stock price may be volatile or may
decline regardless of our operating performance, resulting in
substantial losses for investors purchasing shares of our common
stock; and the other important factors discussed under the caption
“Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as such factors may be updated
