NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we also use Non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. We believe the Non-GAAP financial measures are useful in analysis of the Company's financial position, results and targets. In particular, management believes that Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted diluted earnings per share are useful measures in assessing the Company's financial performance by excluding certain items that are not indicative of the Company's core operating performance. Management also believes that Free Cash Flow is a useful measure in assessing the Company's ability to generate cash to maintain operations and repay its debt. Please refer to our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position for three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2026, as well as our press release dated October 30, 2026 for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures to their most comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized meanings and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies in our industry. The presentation of Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for the Company's related financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
