Agilent Announces Solutions Innovation Research Award to Dr. Jiangbin Ye

Agilent Announces Solutions Innovation Research Award to Dr. Jiangbin Ye

Stanford Medicine researcher recognized for his influential work in cell biology and cancer research

SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced today that Dr. Jiangbin Ye has received an Agilent Solutions Innovation Research Award (SIRA). The award supports drug discovery and development, research exploration, enhancement, and acceleration. Dr. Ye is an Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology, within the Division of Radiation and Cancer Biology, at Stanford Medicine, one of seven schools that make up Stanford University.

A characteristic of cancer is that malignant cells modulate metabolic pathways to promote cancer progression. Dr. Ye’s research focuses on this particular aspect of cancer metabolism, specifically the connection between the Warburg effect, epigenetic remodeling, and cancer dedifferentiation. The Ye Lab’s investigations into the causes and consequences of the abnormal metabolic phenotypes of cancer cells in response to microenvironmental stresses, such as hypoxia and nutrient deprivation, will aid the prospect that therapeutic approaches might be developed to target these metabolic pathways to improve cancer treatment.

“I am deeply honored to receive the prestigious SIRA from Agilent, a leader in cutting-edge scientific research and technology,” said Dr. Ye. “This award will greatly support our lab’s mission to explore the intricate connections between the Warburg effect, epigenetic remodeling, and cell dedifferentiation in cancer cells.”

“With the advanced capabilities of Agilent’s cell analysis platforms, including the Seahorse XF Pro, BioTek Cytation 5, and Q-TOF LC/MS, we can strike the complex core of tumorigenesis and unravel the mysteries of cancer progression. Our collaboration with Agilent will undoubtedly accelerate the development of innovative metabolic therapy, ultimately improving cancer treatment and save patients’ lives,” added Dr. Ye.

“Agilent is committed to assisting academic researchers in accelerating their area of proficiency, so we are thrilled to present this award to Dr. Ye,” said Nahid Chalyavi, associate vice president of University Relations and External Research at Agilent. “We look forward to following his work as he incorporates some of the most innovative and impactful technologies in his cell biology and cancer research investigations.”

SIRA is a new Agilent University Relations initiative designed to stimulate the most innovative and impactful use of multiple Agilent products to help solve pressing scientific problems. The 2023 award will support advancements in drug discovery and cancer research, enabled using Agilent cell analysis platforms, including the new award-winning Seahorse XF Pro Analyzer optimized for drug discovery research and pharma-oriented workflows, BioTek Cytation 5 Cell Imaging Multimode Reader, and mass spectrometry instruments and workflows that can be used synergistically to improve the understanding of cell biology and cancer.

Arrow Electronics Reports First-Quarter 2023 Results

Arrow Electronics Reports First-Quarter 2023 Results

— First-Quarter Earnings Per Share of $4.60; Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share of $4.60 —

— Revenue and EPS Exceeding Midpoint of Guidance —

CENTENNIAL, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) today reported first-quarter 2023 sales of $8.74 billion, a decrease of 4 percent year over year, and a decrease of 2 percent year over year on a constant currency basis1. First-quarter net income was $274 million, or $4.60 per share on a diluted basis, compared with net income of $365 million, or $5.31 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP net income1 was $274 million, or $4.60 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2023, compared with non-GAAP net income of $373 million, or $5.43 per share on a diluted basis, in the first quarter of 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, changes in foreign currencies reduced sales by $203 million, and reduced earnings per share on a diluted basis by $0.13, compared to the first quarter of 2022.

“The company delivered solid first-quarter results with revenue and earnings per share beating the midpoint of our guidance,” said Sean Kerins, Arrow’s president and chief executive officer. “Our dedicated team performed well in a challenging environment for both our suppliers and customers.”

Global components first-quarter sales of $6.86 billion reflected a decrease of 5 percent year over year, and a decrease of 3 percent year over year on a constant currency basis. Asia-Pacific components first-quarter sales decreased 19 percent year over year. Americas components first-quarter sales decreased 5 percent year over year. Europe components first-quarter sales increased 17 percent year over year, and increased 23 percent year over year on a constant currency basis. Global components first-quarter operating income was $418 million, and first-quarter non-GAAP operating income was $424 million.

“We are pleased with the overall performance of the global components business given the current market conditions, led by strength in the EMEA region. We were encouraged by the momentum of our design engagement in several of our markets,” said Mr. Kerins.

Global enterprise computing solutions (ECS) first-quarter sales of $1.88 billion were flat year over year and reflected an increase of 3 percent year over year on a constant currency basis. Europe enterprise computing solutions first-quarter sales increased 7 percent year over year and increased 13 percent year over year on a constant currency basis. Americas enterprise computing solutions first-quarter sales decreased 5 percent year over year. Global enterprise computing solutions first-quarter operating income was $81 million, and first-quarter non-GAAP operating income was $82 million.

“Our ECS business continues to perform in line with the overall market for enterprise IT, with better momentum in Europe, and a softer backdrop in the Americas. Additionally, we’re pleased to see signs of an improving supply environment,” said Mr. Kerins.

“Enhancing shareholder value remains a top priority,” said Raj Agrawal, senior vice president and chief financial officer. “Our strong financial returns and the effective management of our balance sheet have enabled us to return cash to shareholders by repurchasing $300 million of shares during the first quarter. Returning cash to shareholders through our stock repurchase plan remains one of our priorities. As of the end of the first quarter, our remaining repurchase authorization stands at approximately $1 billion.”

1 A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures is presented in the reconciliation tables included herein.

SECOND-QUARTER 2023 OUTLOOK

  • Consolidated sales of $8.42 billion to $9.02 billion, with global components sales of $6.64 billion to $7.04 billion, and global enterprise computing solutions sales of $1.78 billion to $1.98 billion

  • Net income per share on a diluted basis of $4.10 to $4.30, and non-GAAP net income per share on a diluted basis of $4.25 to $4.45

  • Average tax rate of approximately 23.5 percent compared to the long-term range of 23 to 25 percent

  • Average diluted shares outstanding of 57.95 million

  • Interest expense of approximately $90 million

  • Changes in foreign currencies expected to increase year-over-year growth in sales by $12 million, not expected to have a significant impact on earnings per share on a diluted basis compared to the second quarter of 2022

  • Changes in foreign currencies expected to increase quarter-over-quarter growth in sales by $54 million and earnings per share on a diluted basis by $0.04 compared to the first quarter of 2023

  • On a constant currency basis, our second-quarter sales guidance implies a sequential growth rate range of down 4 percent to up 2 percent for global components and down 6 percent to up 4 percent for global enterprise computing solutions, when compared to the first quarter of 2023

Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking” statements, as the term is defined under the federal securities laws, including but not limited to statements regarding: Arrow’s future financial performance, including its outlook on financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 such as sales, net income per diluted share, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, average tax rate, average diluted shares outstanding, interest expense, average USD-to-Euro exchange rate, impact to sales due to changes in foreign currencies, intangible amortization expense per diluted share, restructuring & integration charges per diluted share, and expectation regarding market demand. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or facts to differ materially from such statements for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: unfavorable economic conditions; disruptions or inefficiencies in the supply chain, including any potential adverse effects of the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic; political instability; impacts of military conflict, including the conflict in Ukraine; industry conditions; changes in product supply, pricing and customer demand; competition; other vagaries in the global components and the global ECS markets; deteriorating economic conditions, including economic recession, inflation, tax rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or the availability of capital; the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events; changes in relationships with key suppliers; increased profit margin pressure; changes in legal and regulatory matters; non-compliance with certain regulations, such as export, antitrust, and anti-corruption laws; foreign tax and other loss contingencies; and the company’s ability to generate cash flow. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause the company’s future results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in other filings the company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. The company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any of the forward-looking statements.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the company also provides certain non-GAAP financial information. The company provides non-GAAP sales, operating income, income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, consolidated net income, noncontrolling interests, net income attributable to shareholders, effective tax rate and net income per share on a diluted basis, which are non-GAAP measures adjusted for the impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as “changes in foreign currencies” or “on a constant currency basis”) by re-translating prior-period results at current period foreign exchange rates, identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other charges, and net gains and losses on investments. Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company’s operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management, especially when comparing results with previous periods. Management typically monitors the business as adjusted for these items, in addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting purposes, for short- and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate the company’s financial performance. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adtran brings energy-efficient multigigabit broadband to homes and businesses with next-gen ONTs

Adtran brings energy-efficient multigigabit broadband to homes and businesses with next-gen ONTs

News summary:

  • Demand for high-capacity Ethernet connectivity is soaring, driven by remote work, gamers and cloud-based applications

  • Versatile, high-performance SDX 630 Series XGS-PON ONTs offer service providers a green and cost-effective route to 10G service delivery

  • Newest addition to Adtran’s SD-Access ecosystem ready to support evolving Wi-Fi technology

HUNTSVILLE, Ala.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Adtran today launched its SDX 630 Series, a new generation of 10G symmetric XGS-PON optical network terminals (ONTs) designed to address the demands of residential and business customers in the multigigabit era. The flexible, open technology provides a cost-effective path to high-bandwidth services while enabling service providers to support existing FTTH subscribers. With speeds up to 10Gbit/s, the SDX 630 Series meets all connectivity needs, from streaming high-quality videos on multiple devices to running data-intensive cloud applications. The low-power devices are easy to deploy and feature zero-touch service provisioning capabilities. Coupled with Adtran service delivery gateways (SDGs), they meet the demand of current and future Wi-Fi standards and enable seamless integration with Adtran’s intelligent Mosaic One management system for enhanced control and monitoring.

“In today’s digital age, households and enterprises require high-capacity broadband with unparalleled quality to stay connected and productive. That’s why we’ve engineered our new generation of XGS-PON ONTs to simultaneously meet all the needs of remote work, gamers and cloud-based applications. Our SDX 630 Series enables service providers to succeed in the multigigabit era by harnessing the benefits of high-speed fiber optic transmission and the flexibility offered by our full portfolio of customer premises equipment,” said Robert Conger, SVP of technology and strategy at Adtran. “Our ONTs are specifically designed to remain at the premises for the long term, meeting the requirements of ever-advancing Wi-Fi residential gateways for years to come. Maintenance-free and with a compact, modern design, they discretely blend into a range of environments.”

The SDX 630 Series of ONTs addresses today’s key challenges around delivering cost-efficient, converged residential and business services. Part of the Adtran ecosystem of open-API access products, they enable easy integration into existing network infrastructure and SDN-based management systems. Simple zero-touch provisioning allows for end user installations without the need for truck rolls, reducing complexity and opex. What’s more, they feature advanced operational monitoring features, such as Y.1731, continuity check and ONT-generated multigigabit speed tests. With 10GbE and 2.5GbE LAN interfaces, integrated voice ports, as well as outdoor ONT variants, service providers can offer any flavor of multigigabit service. Also available is an XGS-PON SFP+ ONT that offers a complete ONT in a small form factor pluggable package.

“Meeting today’s soaring bandwidth demands takes more than just great technology. It takes a company that’s committed to building environmentally responsible solutions. Our SDX 630 Series is a distillation of everything we’ve learned over the past decade. It features recyclable enclosures, cloud-hosted documentation and optimized packaging, all designed to put sustainability first,” commented Eric Presworsky, GM of residential solutions at Adtran. “We’ve worked closely with service providers to address some of their key concerns when it comes to building networks in a cost-effective and sustainable way. For example, just take a look at the low-power capabilities of our SDX 630 Series. It’s compliant with Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and European Union COC v8. We’re confident that it’s going to help service providers in a big way.”

Further information on the SDX 630 Series is available in these slides.

Referral results will be returned to CCC’s IES where the adjuster can easily apply adjustments and finalize an evaluation with the click of a button.

“We are excited to work with CCC and integrate with their best-in-class bill review platform, helping our customers pay what they owe with the most efficient workflow possible,” said Josh Dickerson, COO and Cofounder at TempusDirect. “By working with CCC we can help our mutual customers identify eligible bills, ingest referrals automatically or manually based on customer preference, and provide these valuable services in an integrated solution that will be unmatched in the industry.”

CCC can help carriers identify and flag casualty risks early in the claims process through photo-based AI, segment those claims properly, and then – leveraging its newly upgraded bill review engine – facilitate line-level bill evaluation in ways that are intuitive for the adjuster to ensure reasonableness of charges and treatment patterns. With the Tempus integration, adjusters will be able to seamlessly add collateral source validation, live benchmarking, and direct-to-provider networks and negotiations.

“Combining CCC’s bill review engine and full suite of offerings with integrated access to TempusDirect’s suite of direct-to-provider solutions will create powerful synergy to drive outcome accuracy,” said Kevin Moynihan, Vice President of Product Management at CCC. “This integration also improves the adjuster experience by eliminating the need to access multiple systems to perform these critical evaluation activities. We can’t wait to help more insurers connect with Tempus offerings – both current and future.”

Added Mike Silva, CCC’s Executive Vice President of Customer Success, “CCC is always looking to innovate on behalf of our customers, and that includes serving as a hub for companies whose complementary solutions add unique benefits.

UnitedHealthcare Provides $275,000 to Three North Carolina Nonprofits to Improve Health Outcomes for Children

UnitedHealthcare Provides $275,000 to Three North Carolina Nonprofits to Improve Health Outcomes for Children

Funds will advance stability and provide critical resources for children in kinship and foster care across North Carolina

RALEIGH, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of North Carolina has announced $275,000 in grant funding to three local organizations supporting children in kinship and foster care across the state.

“Caring for the most vulnerable members of our community starts with meeting their most basic needs, and we are dedicated to supporting the children of North Carolina who face elevated challenges each day,” said Anita Bachmann, CEO, UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of North Carolina. “We’re honored to collaborate with these nonprofits in their efforts to keep kids healthy and in caring homes.”

Grant funds will help Methodist Home for Children, Boys & Girls Home of North Carolina, and Foster Family Alliance of North Carolina to expand or introduce new offerings for foster families as well as kinship families, defined as a family friend or relative who has assumed the role of primary caregiver for a child. Grants include:

  • $125,000 to Methodist Home for Children to enhance programs that stabilize placements with families for children with dual diagnoses.

  • $75,000 to Boys & Girls Home of North Carolina to increase preventive and aftercare services for families and support kinship placements.

  • $75,000 to Foster Family Alliance of North Carolina to increase support groups, kinship navigation and resources for kinship families.

“Kinship families deserve to be supported in their child welfare journey, just as foster parents are,” said Gaile Osborne, executive director, Foster Family Alliance. “Collaboration with UnitedHealthcare has allowed our organization to increase capacity across the state to help kinship families navigate physical and mental health services.”

The support from UnitedHealthcare will further each organization’s efforts to foster stability and permanency for children, increase access to care and build healthier communities across North Carolina.

“UnitedHealthcare’s generous grant will provide much needed support to our ongoing efforts to stabilize struggling families in North Carolina,” said Marc Murphy, CEO, Boys & Girls Home. “Children in foster care often come to us having experienced trauma and behind their peers in so many key developmental areas. This collaboration will enable our staff to expand services to improve health outcomes for more children and families in our area.”

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, children in foster care face increased barriers to health care, and 1 in 3 children enter foster care with a chronic medical condition. Additionally, 60% of children in foster care under 5 years old have developmental health issues, and more than 40% of school-age children face educational challenges.

“At Methodist Home for Children, we believe every child deserves a chance – and that includes the historically underserved population of children dually diagnosed with a developmental disability and mental health disorder,” said Bruce Stanley, CEO and president, Methodist Home for Children. “The generous support of UnitedHealthcare builds our capacity to equip dually diagnosed children to successfully re-integrate to their homes and school communities – and to live their lives as productively and independently as possible.”

UnitedHealthcare serves more than 1.7 million members enrolled in Medicaid, employer-sponsored, individual and Medicare and retirement plans in North Carolina, with a network of 141 hospitals, and over 60,000 physicians and other care providers statewide.

Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. Announces $5 Million Registered Direct Offering

SHARON, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ:MIGI) (“Mawson” or the “Company”), a digital infrastructure provider, today announced a $5 million registered direct offering.

Mawson has entered into a definitive agreement with institutional investors for the issuance and sale of 2,083,336 shares of its common stock (or pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof) at a purchase price of $2.40 per share of common stock (or $2.399 per pre-funded warrant, which represents the per share offering price for the common stock less the $0.001 per share exercise price for each pre-funded warrant) in a registered direct offering. In addition, in a concurrent private placement, the Company will issue to the institutional investors unregistered warrants to purchase up to 2,604,170 shares of its common stock with an exercise price of $3.23 per share and are exercisable six months following issuance for a period of five and one-half years following issuance. The closing of the registered direct offering and the concurrent private placement is expected to occur on or about May 8, 2023, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.

The gross proceeds to Mawson from the offering are expected to be approximately $5 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by Mawson. Mawson intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to continue to build out its digital infrastructure, for potential strategic transactions and also for general corporate purposes, including working capital. The shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants described above are being offered and sold by Mawson pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-264062), including a base prospectus, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on April 1, 2022 and declared effective by the SEC on April 11, 2022. Such shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants may be offered only by means of a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement. A final prospectus supplement and an accompanying base prospectus relating to the registered direct offering will be filed with the SEC. Electronic copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus may be obtained, when available, by visiting the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov or by contacting H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC at 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10022, by e-mail at [email protected] or telephone at (212) 856-5711.

The warrants described above are being issued in a concurrent private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and, along with the shares of common stock underlying such warrants, have not been registered under the Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the warrants and underlying shares of common stock may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws.

The Company also has agreed to amend certain existing warrants to purchase up to 1,666,667 shares of the Company’s common stock that were previously issued in July 2022 and have an exercise price of $6.06 per share, effective upon the closing of the offering, such that the amended warrants will have a reduced exercise price of $3.23 per share, will be exercisable six months following the closing of the offering, and will expire five and one-half years following the closing of the offering.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.

This communication contains forward-looking statements that are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this communication, including statements regarding the proposed Merger, our business strategy, future operations and results thereof, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, current and prospective products, current and prospective collaborations, timing and likelihood of success, plans and objectives of management, expected market growth and future results of current and anticipated products are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “plan”, “potential”, “predict”, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “might”, “will”, “would”, “should”, “can have”, “could”, “continue”, “contemplate”, “target”, “likely” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. For example, all statements we make relating to the proposed Merger and its completion, our estimated and projected costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and financial results or our plans and objectives for future operations, growth initiatives, or strategies are forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements involve unknown risks, and other important factors that may cause actual results performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including:

  • uncertainties associated with the proposed Merger, including the failure to complete the Merger in a timely manner or at all, restrictions on business conduct and potential lawsuits related to the proposed Merger;
  • the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement;
  • the inability to complete the proposed Merger due to the failure to satisfy conditions precedent, including satisfaction of the Requisite Shareholder Approval;
  • risks related to disruption of management’s attention from our ongoing business operations due to the proposed Merger;
  • the effect of the announcement of the proposed Merger on our relationships with our customers and on our operating results and business generally;
  • the costs of the proposed Merger if the proposed Merger is not consummated;
  • uncertain global economic conditions which have had and could continue to have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations;
  • the global nature of our operations exposes us to numerous risks that could materially adversely affect our consolidated financial condition and results of operations;
  • fluctuations between non-U.S. currencies and the U.S. dollar could materially impact our consolidated financial condition or results of operations;
  • political and economic instability and risk of government actions affecting our business and our customers or suppliers may adversely impact our business, results of operations and cash flows;
  • raw material pricing, availability and allocation by suppliers as well as energy-related costs may negatively impact our results of operations, including our profit margins;
  • if we do not develop new and innovative products or if customers in our markets do not accept them, our results would be negatively affected;
  • cyber risks and the failure to maintain the integrity of our operational or security systems or infrastructure;
  • the introduction of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting may adversely affect our effective rate of tax in future periods;
  • the consolidation of customers may adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition or results of operations;
  • we experience competition in the markets for our products and services and in the geographic areas in which we operate;
  • instability and uncertainty in the credit and financial markets could adversely impact the availability of credit that we and our customers need to operate our business;
  • new and stricter regulations may affect our business and consolidated condition and results of operations; and
  • the other risks described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based on many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements as well as other cautionary statements that are made from time to time in our other SEC filings and public communications. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements in the context of these risks and uncertainties.

We caution you that the important factors referenced above may not contain all of the factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results or developments we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our operations in the way we expect. The forward-looking statements included herein are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.


Non-GAAP Financial Information

We present financial information that conforms to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). We also present financial information that does not conform to U.S. GAAP (“Non-GAAP”), as our management believes it is useful to investors.

The Non-GAAP financial metrics exclude items that we consider to be certain specified items (“Special Items”), such as restructuring charges, transaction and integration costs, certain transaction and other charges related to acquisitions and divestitures, gains and losses related to acquisitions and divestitures, and certain other items. We evaluate unusual or Special Items on an individual basis. Our evaluation of whether to exclude an unusual or Special Item for purposes of determining our Non-GAAP financial measures considers both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the item, including among other things (i) its nature, (ii) whether or not it relates to our ongoing business operations, and (iii) whether or not we expect it to occur as part of our normal business on a regular basis.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. GAAP. We define EBITDA as income (loss) before income tax provisions (benefit), interest expense, and depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA, as EBITDA adjusted for other items to (i) eliminate certain non-operating income or expense items, (ii) eliminate the impact of certain non-cash and other items that are included in net income (loss) that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, and (iii) eliminate certain unusual and non-recurring items impacting results in a particular period.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, net income (loss), income (loss) before income tax provision or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor should they be considered as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our method of calculating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from the methods used by other companies.

Our management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be key indicators of our financial performance. Additionally, we believe EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that investors, analysts and rating agencies consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA useful means of measuring our ability to meet our debt service obligations and evaluating our financial performance, and management uses these measures for one or more of these purposes. Our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA instead of net income has limitations as an analytical tool.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income (as defined below) and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) are Non-GAAP financial measures. We define Adjusted Net Income as net income (loss) adjusted to (i) eliminate certain non-operating income or expense items, (ii) eliminate the impact of certain non-cash and other items that are included in net income that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance, (iii) eliminate certain unusual and non-recurring items impacting results in a particular period, and (iv) reflect the tax effect of items (i) through (iii) and other tax special items. We define Adjusted EPS as our Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by the number of weighted average shares outstanding in the period.

We believe that in addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are useful in evaluating our business, results of operations and financial condition. We believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance and facilitate period to period comparisons of our operations and financial results, as they eliminate the effects of certain variables from period to period for reasons that we do not believe reflect our underlying operating performance or are unusual or infrequent in nature. However, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute or alternative for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS have limitations as analytical tools.
