Full-Year 2025 Outlook<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThe Company\u2019s key points on 2025 outlook include:\n<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nMid single digit constant currency organic revenue growth\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted EBITDA margin organic improvement to approximately 24%, in line with long term target\n<\/li>\n
- \nCapital expenditures expected to be 7% to 8% of revenue\n<\/li>\n
- \nEffective tax rate estimated to be approximately 26%\n<\/li>\n
- \nContinuing to pursue acquisitions and portfolio refinements\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nThe Company\u2019s 2025 outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the control of the Company. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company\u2019s expectations may change. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the results expressed by this outlook.\n<\/p>\n
\nThe Company does not provide guidance for net income margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA margin, and similarly cannot provide a reconciliation between its forecasted Adjusted EBITDA margin and net income margin without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain components of net income and the respective reconciliations. These forecasted items are not within the Company\u2019s control, may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.\n<\/p>\n

Non-GAAP Measures<\/b><\/p>\n
\nIn addition to financial measures based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (\u201cGAAP\u201d), this press release includes supplemental non-GAAP financial information, including the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income margin, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow margin. Management uses non-GAAP measures in addition to GAAP measures to understand and compare operating results across periods and for forecasting and other purposes. Management believes these non-GAAP measures reflect results in a manner that enables, in some instances, more meaningful analysis of trends and facilitates comparison of results across periods. These non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning presented in U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies due to potential differences between the companies in calculations. The use of these non-GAAP measures has limitations, and they should not be considered as substitutes for measures of financial performance and financial position as prepared in accordance with GAAP. See \u201cNon-GAAP Financial Measures\u201d below for definitions of these non-GAAP measures, and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP measures.\n<\/p>\n

- \nOrganic reflects revenue change in a given period excluding Acquisition \/ Divestiture and FX in that same period, expressed in dollars or as a percentage of revenue in the prior period.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAcquisition \/ Divestiture is calculated as revenue change in a given period related to acquisitions or disposals of businesses using prior period exchange rates, expressed in dollars or as a percentage of revenue in the prior period. Revenues from an acquisition or disposal are measured as Acquisition \/ Divestiture for the initial twelve month period following the acquisition or disposal date. Subsequently, the revenue impact from the acquired or disposed business is measured as Organic.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nFX reflects the impact that foreign currency exchange rates have on revenue in a given period, expressed in dollars or as a percentage of revenue in the prior period. The Company uses constant currency to calculate the FX impact on revenue in a given period by translating current period revenues at prior period exchange rates, expressed as a percentage of revenue in the prior period.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

\n <\/tr>\n<\/table>\n Non-GAAP Financial Measures<\/b><\/p>\n
\nIn addition to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers a variety of financial and operating measures in assessing the performance of its business. The key non-GAAP measures the Company uses are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income margin, Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow margin, which management believes provide useful information to investors. These measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, operating income, diluted earnings per share, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.\n<\/p>\n
\nThe Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income margin and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share to measure the operational strength and performance of its business and believes these measures provide additional information to investors about certain non-cash items and unusual items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Further, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide a meaningful measure of business performance and provide a basis for comparing the Company\u2019s performance to that of other peer companies using similar measures. The Company uses Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow margin as additional liquidity measures and believes these measures provide useful information to investors about the cash generated from the Company\u2019s core operations that may be available to repay debt, make other investments and return cash to stockholders.\n<\/p>\n
\nThere are material limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses which directly affect the Company\u2019s net income, as applicable. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share do not take into account certain significant items, including other (income) expense, net, stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses which directly affect the Company\u2019s net income and diluted earnings per share, as applicable. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow margin adjust for cash items that are ultimately within management\u2019s discretion to direct and therefore may imply that there is less or more cash that is available than the most comparable GAAP measure. Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow margin are not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with net income, operating income, diluted earnings per share and net cash provided by operating activities as calculated in accordance with GAAP.\n<\/p>\n
\nSee additional information below regarding the definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations of each non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure.\n<\/p>\n

- \nThe Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, income tax expense, as well as stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses, as applicable. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors about certain non-cash items and unusual items that are not expected to continue at the same level in the future. Further, the Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of business performance and provides a basis for comparing its performance to that of other peer companies using similar measures. There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account certain significant items, including depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, income tax expense, stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses which directly affect the Company’s net income, as applicable. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

- \nThe Company defines Adjusted Net Income as net income adjusted for other (income) expense, net, stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses, as applicable, each net of tax. The Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income provides additional information to investors about certain non-cash items and unusual items that are expected to continue at the same level in the future. Further, the Company believes Adjusted Net Income provides a meaningful measure of business performance and provides a basis for comparing its performance to that of other peer companies using similar measures. There are material limitations to using Adjusted Net Income. Adjusted Net Income does not take into account certain significant items, including other (income) expense, net, stock-based compensation expense for equity-settled awards, material asset impairment charges and restructuring expenses which directly affect the Company’s net income, as applicable. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering Adjusted Net Income in conjunction with net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAdjusted Net Income margin is calculated as Adjusted Net Income as a percentage of revenue.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nThe Company computed the tax effect of adjustments to net earnings by applying the statutory tax rate in the relevant jurisdictions to the taxable income or expense items that are adjusted in the period presented. If a valuation allowance exists, the rate applied is zero.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

- \nThe Company defines Free Cash Flow as cash from operating activities less cash outlays related to capital expenditures. The Company defines capital expenditures to include purchases of property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. These items are subtracted from cash from operating activities because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities. The Company uses Free Cash Flow as an additional liquidity measure and believes it provides useful information to investors about the cash generated from its core operations that may be available to repay debt, make other investments and return cash to stockholders. There are material limitations to using Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow adjusts for cash items that are ultimately within management\u2019s discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash that is available than the most comparable GAAP measure. Free Cash Flow is not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted. These limitations are best addressed by considering the economic effects of the excluded items independently, and by considering Free Cash Flow in conjunction with net cash provided by operating activities as calculated in accordance with GAAP.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nFree Cash Flow margin is calculated as Free Cash Flow as a percentage of revenue.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
