Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information

To supplement the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including non-GAAP results, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow/(use), net investment/(debt), EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP effective tax rate and constant currency results. The Company calculates constant currency by translating the prior year results at the current year exchange rate. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to evaluate the Company's operating and financial performance and to compare such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of the Company's competitors. Also, the Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making operational and financial decisions and in establishing operational goals. The Company also believes providing these non-GAAP financial measures to investors, as a supplement to GAAP financial measures, helps investors evaluate the Company's operating and financial performance and trends in the Company's business, consistent with how management evaluates such performance and trends. The Company also believes these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in comparing its performance to the performance of other companies, although its non-GAAP financial measures are specific to the Company and the non-GAAP financial measures of other companies may not be calculated in the same manner. The Company provides EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because the Company believes that investors and securities analysts will find EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be useful measures for evaluating the Company's operating performance and comparing the Company's operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating the Company's ability to meet the Company's future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. The Company is also providing EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA in light of the Company's credit agreement and 8.5% senior notes due 2024. For additional information regarding the Company's use of non-GAAP
