Forward-looking Statements
The information included in this press release includes
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act
of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, as disclosed by Nabors from time to time in its
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of
these factors, Nabors' actual results may differ materially from
those indicated or implied by such forward-looking statements. The
forward-looking statements contained in this press release reflect
management's estimates and beliefs as of the date of this press
release. Nabors does not undertake to update these forward-looking
statements.
Non-GAAP Disclaimer
This press release presents certain "non-GAAP" financial
measures. The components of these non-GAAP measures are
computed by using amounts that are determined in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("GAAP"). Adjusted operating income (loss) represents income
(loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, interest
expense, investment income (loss), and other, net. Adjusted EBITDA
is computed similarly, but also excludes depreciation and
amortization expenses. In addition, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted
operating income (loss) exclude certain cash expenses that the
Company is obligated to make. Net debt is calculated as total debt
minus the sum of cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments.
Adjusted free cash flow represents net cash provided by
operating activities less cash used for capital expenditures, net
of proceeds from sales of assets. Management believes that adjusted
free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for the company
and that it is useful to investors and management as a measure of
the company's ability to generate cash flow, after reinvesting in
the company for future growth, that could be available for paying
down debt or other financing cash flows, such as dividends to
shareholders. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure is
useful information to investors when comparing our cash flows with
the cash flows of other companies.
Each of these non-GAAP measures has limitations and therefore
should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for the amounts
reported in accordance with GAAP. However, management evaluates the
performance of its operating segments and the consolidated Company
based on several criteria, including Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted
operating income (loss), net debt, and adjusted free cash flow,
because it believes that these financial measures accurately
reflect the Company's ongoing profitability and performance.
Securities analysts and investors also use these measures as some
of the metrics on which they analyze the Company's performance.
Other companies in this industry may compute these measures
differently. Reconciliations of consolidated adjusted EBITDA and
adjusted operating income (loss) to income (loss) from continuing
operations before income taxes, net debt to total debt, and
adjusted free cash flow to net cash provided by operations, which
are their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures, are included
in the tables at the end of this press release. We do not provide a
forward-looking reconciliation of our outlook for Segment Adjusted
EBITDA, Segment Gross Margin or Adjusted Free Cash Flow, as the
amount and significance of items required to develop meaningful
comparable GAAP financial measures cannot be estimated at this time
without unreasonable efforts. These special items could be
meaningful.
