Management uses adjusted EBITDA as one of the principal measures to evaluate and monitor the ongoing financial performance of Waste Connections\u2019 operations. Waste Connections defines adjusted EBITDA as net income, plus income tax provision, plus interest expense, less interest income, plus depreciation and amortization expense, plus closure and post-closure accretion expense, plus or minus any loss or gain on impairments and other operating items, plus other expense, less other income. Waste Connections further adjusts this calculation to exclude the effects of other items management believes impact the ability to assess the operating performance of its business. This measure is not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \nThree months ended

by investors as a liquidity measure in the solid waste industry. Waste Connections calculates adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, plus or minus change in book overdraft, plus proceeds from disposal of assets, less capital expenditures for property and equipment. Waste Connections further adjusts this calculation to exclude the effects of items management believes impact the ability to evaluate the liquidity of its business operations. This measure is not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP liquidity or financial measures. This measure is not meant to represent residual cash available for strategic acquisitions, stock repurchases, dividends or other discretionary expenditures since it does not adjust for mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures. Other companies may calculate adjusted free cash flow differently.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \nThree months ended

are provided supplementally because they are widely used by investors as valuation measures in the solid waste industry. Management uses adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share as one of the principal measures to evaluate and monitor the ongoing financial performance of Waste Connections\u2019 operations. Waste Connections provides adjusted net income to exclude the effects of items management believes impact the comparability of operating results between periods. Adjusted net income has limitations due to the fact that it excludes items that have an impact on the Company\u2019s financial condition and results of operations. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share are not a substitute for, and should be used in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \nThree months ended
