"EBITDA"
means earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization. "EBITA" means earnings before interest expense,
income taxes and amortization. We present EBITDA / EBITA to
enhance the understanding of our operating results. EBITDA /
EBITA is a key measure we use to evaluate our operations. In
addition, we provide our EBITDA / EBITA because we believe that investors
and securities analysts will find EBITDA / EBITA to be a useful measure
for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating
performance with that of similar companies that have different capital
structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service,
capital expenditures, and working capital
requirements. However, EBITDA / EBITA should not be considered
as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of
liquidity or as an alternative to net income as a measure of
operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of
America.
