Note regarding non - GAAP financial measures The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, free cash flow to adjusted EBITDA conversion, free cash flow yield and market cap to free cash flow, which are non - GAAP financial measures, provide additional meaningful information regarding the Company's performance and financial strength. Non - GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, free cash flow to adjusted EBITDA conversion, free cash flow yi eld and market cap to free cash flow included in this presentation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and free cash flow yield to the most directly comparabl e GAAP measures are provided in the tables accompanying this presentation. EBITDA is defined as net earnings attributable to common stockholders plus interest expense (income) — net, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Other adjustments include the elimination of the portion of interest income (expense) — net and the portion of depreciation and amortization that are included in noncontrolling interests, and loan fee amortization that is inc lud ed in both interest and amortization. The Company has presented EBITDA because management uses the measure to track performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of c omp anies in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted with the selected items as summarized in the tables accompanying this presentation. The Company has presented adjusted EBITDA because management uses adjusted EBITDA, and believes it is useful to investors, as a supplemental financial measure in the comparison of year - over - year performance. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, as stated in the consolidated statements of cash flow s, reduced by capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest plus contributions from noncontrolling interests . F ree cash flow to adjusted EBITDA conversion is defined as free cash flow divided by adjusted EBITDA. Free cash flow yield is defined a s f ree cash flow divided by market value of equity (market cap). Market cap to free cash flow (FCF) is defined as market cap divided by free cash flow. The Company has presented free cash flow, free cash flow to adjusted EBITDA conversion, free cash flow yield and market cap to free cash flow because management uses these measures and believes they are useful to investors, as an indicati on of the strength of the Company and its ability to generate cash and to evaluate the Company's cash generation ability relativ e t o its industry competitors. It should not be inferred that the entire free cash flow amount is available for discretionary expendit ure s.
