Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 5, 2020, Republic Services, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release
containing information about the Company's financial results for the three
months ended March 31, 2020. A copy of this press release is furnished as
Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by
reference.
2020 Financial Guidance
The Company is suspending its full-year 2020 detailed financial guidance.
Assuming the economy continues to recover, we expect to generate over $1 billion
of adjusted free cash flow in 2020. We are unable to reconcile our full year
projected adjusted free cash flow to our full year cash provided by operating
activities without unreasonable efforts due to the various uncertainties
surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, including the timing and sequencing of
increases in economic activity in the markets where we operate and the business
resumption costs we may incur.
We believe that presenting adjusted free cash flow guidance provides useful
information regarding our recurring cash provided by operating activities after
certain expenditures. It also demonstrates our ability to execute our financial
strategy and is a key metric we use to determine compensation. The presentation
of adjusted free cash flow has material limitations. Adjusted free cash flow
does not represent our cash flow available for discretionary expenditures
because it excludes certain expenditures that are required or to which we have
committed, such as debt service requirements and dividend payments. Our
definition of adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures presented by other companies.
