Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow before restructuring expense is defined as free cash flow excluding nonrecurring expense, net. EBITDAR is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment of goodwill and nonrecurring expenses. Net debt is defined as the sum of short-term and long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash.
Management believes EBITDAR is a meaningful measure of performance as it is commonly utilized by management, investors and financial institutions to analyze operating performance and entity valuation. Free cash flow and free cash flow before restructuring expense are useful in analyzing the company’s ability to service and repay its debt. Net debt to total capital ratio is used by management to analyze the Company's financial structure and its reliance on debt financing for funding its operational requirements. Further, management uses these non-GAAP measures in planning and forecasting for future periods.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDAR should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Free cash flow and free cash flow before restructuring expense should not be considered substitutes for cash provided by operating activities or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. In addition, the calculation of free cash flow does not reflect cash used to service debt or cash received from the divestitures or businesses or sales of other assets and thus does not reflect funds available for investment or other discretionary uses.
