# LETTER TO
SHAREHOLDERS

We were able to deliver solid results in 2016 despite a challenging global economic environment. Improving trends in the markets we serve give us confidence about 2017 and beyond. »

## Our Businesses
Performed Well

Our businesses faced challenging market conditions that characterized the global economy in 2016. Despite those challenges, our businesses posted solid results and are well positioned entering 2017. Our outlook for the year ahead is positive.

We realized early on in 2016 that it would be a challenging year. Our businesses responded quickly, aligning their cost structures to reflect market conditions. Importantly, we did not alter our long-term strategies. We focused on acquisitions and Operational Excellence initiatives, while maintaining our investments in research and development and market and global expansion.

Our sales in 2016 were $3.8 billion, down from $4.0 billion in 2015. We had operating income of $841 million and an operating margin of 21.9%. Net income totaled $538 million, or $2.30 per diluted share.

## 2017 Outlook

As we enter 2017, we are seeing improvements in many of our markets, especially oil, gas and metals, which have been affected by the global economy. Our fourth-quarter sales reflected sequentially higher sales and record operating cash flow of $247 million, up 24% from the prior-year fourth quarter.

We are optimistic about a return to sales and earnings growth in 2017. Market conditions have improved, and our businesses remain well positioned as leaders in their niche markets. We continue to drive operational improvements, while investing in important growth areas. We are confident in our ability to deploy our capital on strategic acquisitions.

## Strategic Vision and Goal

We are committed to our goal of doubling AMETEK’s earnings per share over the next five years. With our strong business portfolio, proven operational capabilities and excellent cash flow, we can achieve that goal.

Guiding our efforts is a commitment to our Four Growth Strategies. Those strategies work in concert to leverage the strength of our businesses and are scalable in creating additional value for our shareholders.
We have expanded our Operational Excellence toolkit and enhanced the front-end tools to spur sales growth. We are devoting sufficient resources to acquisitions, which we see as key drivers in creating shareholder value and expanding our businesses into attractive adjacent growth markets.

We are expanding our global sales channels, service infrastructure and manufacturing footprint. We will maintain our investment in new product development, tapping into Design for Six Sigma and Value Analysis/Value Engineering to maximize the return on our investment and speed the innovation process.

## Operational Excellence

Operational Excellence is our cornerstone. It drives our operational and asset management initiatives and is key to our competitive and financial success. It helps us implement cost reductions and maintain a strong operating margin, despite economic and competitive pressures.

Operational Excellence is pivotal to achieving superior working capital and asset management results. Those are areas where we rank among the best of our peer

DAVID A. ZAPICO
Chief Executive Officer

group. We see opportunities to further reduce our working capital requirements and improve the cash flow that funds our growth.

Operational Excellence is essential to expanding low-cost manufacturing. Sales from those low-cost manufacturing facilities topped $440 million in 2016. Operational Excellence also plays a key role in achieving synergies from newly acquired businesses and delivering consistent quality and value to our customers.

AMETEK was proactive in 2016 in driving operational improvements as our teams generated $130 million in Operational Excellence savings. We will continue to drive our Operational Excellence programs, while expanding them in the front end of our businesses as we move through 2017.

## Strategic Acquisitions

AMETEK is an active acquirer. We have deployed about $730 million since the beginning of 2016 and acquired six businesses with annual revenues of nearly $300 million.

In 2016, we acquired:

» Brookfield, a global leader in viscosity measurement for research and development in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, paint, chemicals, cosmetics and petroleum industries

» ESP/SurgeX, a leader in products used to protect against, analyze and diagnose power-related issues and to control power to mission-critical equipment

» Nu Instruments, a leader in magnetic sector mass spectrometry with a product line that complements our high-end elemental analysis businesses

» HS Foils, a provider of radiation detector components and technology that complements AMETEK’s other materials analysis businesses

» Laserage, a leading provider of laser fabrication services to the medical device industry

Early in 2017, we completed the acquisition of Rauland-Borg, one of our largest acquisitions. It represents an important new growth platform that greatly expands our presence in the medical industry.

Rauland is a recognized leader in health care workflow solutions. It has premier product and brand name recognition in the industry. Its call systems serve 70 percent of the leading hospitals in the United States.
We believe Rauland has excellent growth potential, especially as health care shifts to value-based and patient-outcome improvement initiatives. We also see opportunities to grow Rauland through new product development, acquisition and global expansion.

Looking ahead, our acquisition pipeline is strong. We have a disciplined acquisition process that has proven highly successful. We have the financial resources and management capabilities to acquire additional businesses with approximately $1.5 billion available to fund our growth.

## Global & Market Expansion

AMETEK is well established in global markets with more than half of our annual sales to customers outside the United States. We are committed to expanding our presence in attractive, higher-growth regions and market segments.

We will continue to invest in our sales and service infrastructure globally to properly position our businesses. Our goal is to increase our international sales percentage to 60% of total sales, reflecting the growth potential of our businesses

internationally and the increasingly global customer base for our products.

## New Products

AMETEK has earned a reputation for technical leadership and product innovation. Our businesses have done a great job developing new products for our core markets. We are finding innovative ways to expand our technology into adjacent markets and applications.

We are committed to maintaining a sizable investment in research, development and engineering, having invested $201 million or roughly 5% of our sales in 2016 and nearly $1 billion over the past five years.

Among the ways we gauge the success of our new product development strategy is through our vitality index, which measures the amount of sales generated from products launched in the past three years. By that measure, sales from new products accounted for $930 million, or 24% of our 2016 sales.

Among the products introduced last year were advanced automation and motion control systems; high-end analyzers, imagers, and test and measurement devices; high-reliability power instruments and systems; and precision manufacturing tools and devices.

## Strong Core Values

Embedded within our Four Growth Strategies is a disciplined approach to managing our businesses. At the heart of that approach is a set of underlying core values. The first among these is a commitment to the highest standards of business behavior.

RONALD J. OSCHER
Chief Administrative Officer

We require all colleagues to adhere to a written Code of Ethics. Our Chief Executive Officer and senior managers are required to adhere to an additional Financial Code of Ethics. We maintain additional controls to ensure the integrity and compliance of our businesses and financial systems.

AMETEK is committed to a culture that values diversity and fosters a work environment that allows our colleagues to develop meaningful careers. Our senior managers are challenged to recruit, train and develop colleagues with diverse backgrounds and experience. When we established the Helmut N. Friedlaender Leadership Award in 2006, we set achievement of goals toward that objective among its criteria.

We are committed to operating our facilities in an environmentally responsible manner. Many of our products help support sustainability initiatives, including the production of renewable fuels and solar energy, the reduction of potentially harmful emissions and greenhouse gases, and improvement in material, process and energy efficiency.

We are sensitive to the needs of our local communities and support programs that help them meet their health, education and social needs.

Our goal is to provide our customers with world-class products and services, while achieving consistent and superior returns on their investment for our shareholders.

## Management Transition

In 2016, we continued a planned succession among our senior leadership that has been underway for several years.

In May, David Zapico was elected as Chief Executive Officer from his position as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. Frank Hermance transitioned to the role of Executive Chairman of the Board, following 17 years as Chief Executive Officer, including 15 years as Chairman.

Robert Mandos, who served AMETEK for 35 years, retired as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. He was succeeded by William Burke, a 30-year AMETEK veteran who had been Senior Vice President, Comptroller and Treasurer.

Ronald Oscher was named Chief Administrative Officer and was succeeded as President, Electronic Instruments, by Tony Ciampitti, a 20-year AMETEK veteran, who had been Vice President and General Manager of our Power Systems and Instruments Division.

With those and other management changes, we now have in place the most talented and experienced management team in our Company’s history.

## Confident Future

Near term, we are cautiously optimistic. Longer term, we are extremely confident about our growth potential. AMETEK has a solid foundation on which to grow. Our Growth Strategies are proven and scalable. We have an excellent set of niche, differentiated businesses. We generate tremendous cash flow and have a strong balance sheet to support our growth initiatives.

AMETEK has a strong, experienced management team and dedicated workforce. We asked a lot from our teams in 2016 and, as usual, they stepped up and delivered. We recognize those efforts, and thank our colleagues for their hard work and dedication.

We greatly appreciate our shareholders' support and confidence. We believe our growth strategies continue to create value for your investment, and we look forward to reporting to you the results of our efforts.

# FINANCIAL REVIEW

## Management’s Discussion and Analysis

This 2016 summary annual report contains abbreviated financial information. The complete text of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the consolidated financial statements and footnotes are presented in AMETEK’s 2016 Form 10-K and in Appendix A to the Company’s Proxy Statement for the 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

## Business Overview

AMETEK’s operations are affected by global, regional and industry economic factors. However, the Company’s strategic geographic and industry diversification, and its mix of products and services, have helped to mitigate the potential adverse impact of any unfavorable developments in any one industry or the economy of any single country on its consolidated operating results. In 2016, the Company was impacted by a weak global economy and the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar. Specifically, the Company experienced lower sales in its process businesses that have exposure to oil and gas markets and in its engineered materials, interconnects and packaging businesses that have exposure to metals markets. Contributions from recent acquisitions, as well as the Company’s Operational Excellence initiatives, had a positive impact on 2016 results. The full-year impact of the 2016 acquisitions and continued focus on and implementation of Operational Excellence initiatives, including the 2016 realignment actions (described further throughout), are expected to have a positive impact on the Company’s 2017 results. In the second half of 2016, the Company noted stabilization in the markets mentioned above compared to 2015; however, the Company still expects the challenging global economic environment to continue to impact its markets and geographies into the first half of 2017.

The table on the opposite page sets forth net sales and operating income for the Company by business segment and on a consolidated basis for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. The discussion that follows should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this summary annual report.

## Review of Operations

AMETEK reported net sales for 2016 of $3,840.1 million, a decrease of $134.2 million or 3.4%, compared with net sales of $3,974.3 million in 2015. The decrease in net sales for 2016 was due to a 7% organic sales decline and an unfavorable 1% effect of foreign currency translation, partially offset by a 4% increase from acquisitions. EIG's net sales were $2,360.3 million in 2016, a decrease of 2.4%, compared with $2,417.2 million in 2015. EIG's net sales decrease was due to a 7% organic sales decline, driven largely by the Company's process businesses that have exposure to oil and gas markets, partially offset by a 5% increase from the 2016 acquisitions of Nu Instruments, Brookfield and ESP/SurgeX and the 2015 acquisition of Surface Vision. EMG's net sales were $1,479.8 million in 2016, a decrease of 5.0%, compared with $1,557.1 million in 2015. EMG's net sales decrease was due to a 6% organic sales decline, driven largely by weakness in the Company's engineered materials, interconnects and packaging businesses, and an unfavorable 1% effect of foreign currency translation, partially offset by a 2% increase from the 2016 acquisition of Laserage and the 2015 acquisition of Global Tubes.

Total international sales for 2016 were $2,010.7 million or 52.4% of net sales, a decrease of $44.0 million or 2.1%, compared with international sales of $2,054.7 million or 51.7% of net sales in 2015. The $44.0 million decrease in international sales was primarily driven by a weak global economy, as well as the foreign currency translation headwind noted above. Both reportable segments of the Company maintain a strong international sales presence in Europe and Asia.

Orders for 2016 were $3,848.8 million, a decrease of $75.9 million or 1.9%, compared with $3,924.7 million in 2015. The decrease in orders for 2016 was due to a 5% organic order decline resulting from a weak global economy noted above, partially offset by a 3% increase from acquisitions. As a result, the Company’s backlog of unfilled orders at December 31, 2016 was $1,156.5 million, an increase of $8.7 million or 0.8%, compared with $1,147.8 million at December 31, 2015.

In 2016, the Company recorded realignment costs totaling $25.6 million (the “2016 realignment costs”). The 2016 realignment costs primarily related to $19.3 million in severance costs for a reduction in workforce and $6.2 million of asset write-downs in response to the impact of a weak global economy on certain of the Company’s businesses, as well as the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar. In 2015, the Company recorded realignment costs totaling $36.6 million (the “2015 realignment costs”). The 2015 realignment costs primarily related to reductions in workforce in response to the impact of a weak global economy on certain of the Company’s businesses, as well as the effects of a continued strong U.S. dollar.

The 2016 and 2015 realignment costs were reported in the consolidated statement of income as follows (in millions):

(1) After elimination of intra- and intersegment sales, which are not significant in amount.

(2) Segment operating income represents net sales less all direct costs and expenses (including certain administrative and other expenses) applicable to each segment, but does not include interest expense.

The 2016 and 2015 realignment costs were reported in segment operating income as follows (in millions):

The annualized cash savings from the 2016 realignment costs is expected to be approximately $35 million, with approximately $35 million expected to be realized in 2017.

Segment operating income for 2016 was $855.6 million, a decrease of $101.9 million or 10.6%, compared with segment operating income of $957.5 million in 2015. Segment operating income, as a percentage of net sales, decreased to 22.3% in 2016, compared with 24.1% in 2015. The decrease in segment operating income and segment operating margins for 2016 resulted primarily from the decrease in net sales noted above and a $29.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, which included a $13.9 million noncash impairment charge related to certain of the Company’s trade names ($9.2 million impacted EIG and $4.7 million impacted EMG). The 2016 impairment charge negatively impacted segment operating margins by approximately 40 basis points. Segment operating income and segment operating margins for 2016 and 2015 include the impact of the realignment costs detailed in the tables above.

Cost of sales for 2016 was $2,575.2 million or 67.1% of net sales, a decrease of $42.8 million or 1.6%, compared with $2,618.0 million or 65.9% of net sales for 2015. The cost of sales decrease was primarily due to the net sales decrease noted above, partially offset by a $29.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, which included a $13.9 million impairment charge noted above. Cost of sales for 2016 and 2015 include the impact of the realignment costs detailed in the tables above.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for 2016 were $463.0 million, an increase of $14.4 million or 3.2%, compared with $448.6 million in 2015. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 12.1% for 2016, compared with 11.3% in 2015. Selling expenses for 2016 were $410.6 million, an increase of $11.1 million or 2.8%, compared with $399.5 million in 2015. The selling expenses increase was due primarily to business acquisitions. Selling expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 10.7% for 2016, compared with 10.1% in 2015.

Corporate administrative expenses for 2016 were $52.4 million, an increase of $3.3 million or 6.7%, compared with $49.1 million in 2015. As a percentage of net sales, corporate administrative expenses were 1.4% for 2016, compared with 1.2% in



2015. For 2016 and 2015, corporate administrative expenses include $1.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of realignment costs noted above.

Consolidated operating income was $801.9 million or 20.9% of net sales for 2016, a decrease of $105.8 million or 11.7%, compared with $907.7 million or 22.8% of net sales in 2015.

Interest expense was $94.3 million for 2016, an increase of $2.5 million or 2.7%, compared with $91.8 million in 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher average borrowings to fund acquisitions and share repurchases.

The effective tax rate for 2016 was 26.1%, compared with 26.7% in 2015. The effective tax rates for 2016 and 2015 reflect the impact of foreign earnings, which are taxed at lower rates. The 2016 effective tax rate reflects tax benefits related to international and state tax planning initiatives and the release of uncertain tax position liabilities relating to certain statute expirations. The 2015 effective tax rate reflects the first quarter of 2015 release of uncertain tax position liabilities related to the conclusion of an advance thin capitalization agreement in the European Union, the second quarter of 2015 effective settlement of the U.S. research and development tax credit from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service examination for 2010 and 2011, and the third quarter of 2015 $7.5 million of tax benefits related to the closure of an international subsidiary.

Net income for 2016 was $512.2 million, a decrease of $78.7 million or 13.3%, compared with $590.9 million in 2015. The 2016 realignment costs and the 2016 impairment charge reduced 2016 net income by $17.0 million and $8.6 million, respectively. The 2015 realignment costs reduced 2015 net income by $24.7 million.

Diluted earnings per share for 2016 were $2.19, a decrease of $0.26 or 10.6%, compared with $2.45 per diluted share in 2015. The 2016 realignment costs and the 2016 impairment charge had the effect of reducing 2016 diluted earnings per share by $0.07 and $0.04, respectively. The 2015 realignment costs had the effect of reducing 2015 diluted earnings per share by $0.10.

## Review of Cash Flows and Financial Position

Cash provided by operating activities was a record $756.8 million in 2016, an increase of $84.3 million or 12.5%, compared with $672.5 million in 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the $48.4 million reduction in defined benefit pension plan contributions, driven by a $50.0 million contribution to the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plans in the first quarter of 2015, and lower overall operating working capital levels driven by the Company's continued focus on operating working capital management.

Free cash flow (cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) was $693.6 million in 2016, compared with $603.5 million in 2015. EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $966.0 million in 2016, compared with $1,046.9 million in 2015. Free cash flow and EBITDA are presented because the Company is aware that they are measures used by third parties in evaluating the Company. (See tables on page 26 for a reconciliation of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures to comparable non-GAAP measures).

Cash used for investing activities totaled $452.4 million in 2016, compared with $426.6 million in 2015. In 2016, the Company paid $391.4 million, net of cash acquired, to acquire Laserage in October 2016, HS Foils and Nu Instruments in July 2016 and Brookfield and ESP/SurgeX in January 2016. In 2015, the Company paid $356.5 million, net of cash acquired, to acquire Surface Vision in July 2015 and Global Tubes in May 2015. Additions to property, plant and equipment totaled $63.3 million in 2016, compared with $69.1 million in 2015.

Cash provided by financing activities totaled $57.1 million in 2016, compared with $217.0 million of cash used for financing activities in 2015. At December 31, 2016, total debt, net was $2,341.6 million, compared with $1,938.0 million at December 31, 2015. In 2016, short-term borrowings decreased $315.7 million, compared with an increase of $226.8 million in 2015. In 2016, long-term borrowings increased $772.2 million, compared with an increase of $18.0 million in 2015.

In October 2016, the Company completed a private placement agreement to sell 500 million Euros and 225 million British pounds in senior notes to a group of institutional investors (the "2016 Private Placement"). There were two funding dates under the 2016 Private Placement. The first funding occurred in October 2016 for 500 million Euros ($546.8 million), consisting of 300 million Euros ($328.1 million) in aggregate principal amount of 1.34% senior notes due October 2026 and 200 million Euros ($218.7 million) in aggregate principal amount of 1.53% senior notes due October 2028. The second funding occurred in November 2016 for 225 million British pounds ($274.1 million), consisting of 150 million British pounds ($182.7 million) in aggregate principal amount of 2.59% senior notes due November 2028 and 75 million British pounds ($91.4 million) in aggregate principal amount of 2.70% senior notes due November 2031. The 2016 Private Placement senior notes carry a weighted average interest rate of 1.82% and are subject to certain customary covenants, including financial covenants that, among other things, require the Company to maintain certain debt-to-EBITDA and interest coverage ratios. The proceeds from the first funding of the 2016



Private Placement were used to pay down domestic borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. The proceeds from the second funding of the 2016 Private Placement were used to pay down, at maturity, a 40 million British pound ($48.7 million) 5.99% senior note in November 2016 and provide the Company with additional financial flexibility to support its growth plans, including its acquisition strategy.

In March 2016, the Company along with certain of its foreign subsidiaries amended and restated its credit agreement dated as of September 22, 2011 (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company's existing $700 million revolving credit facility, which was due to expire in December 2018. The Credit Agreement consists of a five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850 million with a final maturity date in March 2021. The revolving credit facility total borrowing capacity excludes an accordion feature that permits the Company to request up to an additional $300 million in revolving credit commitments at any time during the life of the Credit Agreement under certain conditions. Interest rates on outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility are at the applicable benchmark rate plus a negotiated spread or at the U.S. prime rate. The revolving credit facility provides the Company with additional financial flexibility to support its growth plans, including its acquisition strategy. At December 31, 2016, the Company had available borrowing capacity of $1,117.3 million under its revolving credit facility, including the $300 million accordion feature.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, $270 million of 6.20% senior notes will mature and become payable. The debt-to-capital ratio was 41.8% at December 31, 2016, compared with 37.3% at December 31, 2015. The net debt-to-capital ratio (total debt, net less cash and cash equivalents divided by the sum of net debt and stockholders' equity) was 33.3% at December 31, 2016, compared with 32.4% at December 31, 2015. The net debt-to-capital ratio is presented because the Company is aware that this measure is used by third parties in evaluating the Company. (See table on page 26 for a reconciliation of U.S. GAAP measures to comparable non-GAAP measures).

In 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 7,099,000 shares of its common stock for $336.1 million, compared with $435.4 million used for repurchases of approximately 7,978,000 shares in 2015. On November 2, 2016, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase of $400 million in the authorization for the repurchase of the Company's common stock. At December 31, 2016, $375.6 million was available under the Company's Board of Directors authorization for future share repurchases.

Additional financing activities for 2016 include cash dividends paid of $83.3 million, compared with $86.0 million in 2015. Proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options were $17.6 million in 2016, compared with $39.2 million in 2015.

As a result of all of the Company’s cash flow activities in 2016, cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2016 totaled $717.3 million, compared with $381.0 million at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2016, the Company had $481.6 million in cash outside the United States, compared with $357.2 million at December 31, 2015. The Company utilizes this cash to fund its international operations, as well as to acquire international businesses. In July 2016, the Company acquired HS Foils and Nu Instruments for approximately $65 million, utilizing cash outside the United States. The Company is in compliance with all covenants, including financial covenants, for all of its debt agreements. The Company believes it has sufficient cash-generating capabilities from domestic and unrestricted foreign sources, available credit facilities and access to long-term capital funds to enable it to meet its operating needs and contractual obligations in the foreseeable future.

## Subsequent Events

In January 2017, the Company contributed $50.1 million to its defined benefit pension plans, with $40.0 million contributed to U.S. defined benefit pension plans and $10.1 million contributed to foreign defined benefit pension plans.

In February 2017, the Company acquired Rauland-Borg for approximately $340 million in cash using available cash, as well as borrowings under its revolving credit facility, with a potential $30 million contingent payment due upon the achievement of certain milestones.

## Notes to Selected Financial Data

(1) EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is presented because the Company is aware that it is used by rating agencies, securities analysts, investors and other parties in evaluating the Company. It should not be considered, however, as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s overall liquidity as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, EBITDA measures shown for the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table presents the reconciliation of net income reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to EBITDA:

<table><tr><td rowspan="3"></td><td colspan="5">(In millions)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="5">Year Ended December 31,</td></tr><tr><td>2016</td><td>2015</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td><td>2012</td></tr><tr><td>Net income</td><td>$ 512.2</td><td>$ 590.9</td><td>$ 584.5</td><td>$ 517.0</td><td>$ 459.1</td></tr><tr><td>Add (deduct):</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Interest expense</td><td>94.3</td><td>91.8</td><td>79.9</td><td>73.6</td><td>75.5</td></tr><tr><td>Interest income</td><td>(1.1)</td><td>(0.8)</td><td>(0.8)</td><td>(0.8)</td><td>(0..7)</td></tr><tr><td>Income taxes</td><td>180.9</td><td>215.5</td><td>220.4</td><td>207.8</td><td>203.3</td></tr><tr><td>Depreciation</td><td>74.8</td><td>68.7</td><td>63.7</td><td>57.2</td><td>53.7</td></tr><tr><td>Amortization</td><td>104.9</td><td>80.8</td><td>74.9</td><td>61.5</td><td>51.8</td></tr><tr><td>Total adjustments</td><td>453.8</td><td>456.0</td><td>438.1</td><td>399.3</td><td>383.6</td></tr><tr><td>EBITDA</td><td>$ 966.0</td><td>$ 1,046.9</td><td>$ 1,022.6</td><td>$ 916.3</td><td>$ 842.7</td></tr></table>

(2) Free cash flow represents cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is presented because the Company is aware that it is used by rating agencies, securities analysts, investors and other parties in evaluating the Company. (Also see note 1 above). The following table presents the reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities reported in accordance with GAAP to free cash flow:

<table><tr><td rowspan="3"></td><td colspan="5">(In millions)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="5">Year Ended December 31,</td></tr><tr><td>2016</td><td>2015</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td><td>2012</td></tr><tr><td>Cash provided by operating activities</td><td>$ 756.8</td><td>$ 672.5</td><td>$ 726.0</td><td>$ 660.7</td><td>$ 612.5</td></tr><tr><td>Deduct: Capital expenditures</td><td>(63.3)</td><td>(69.1)</td><td>(71.3)</td><td>(63.3)</td><td>(57.4)</td></tr><tr><td>Free cash flow</td><td>$ 693.5</td><td>$ 603.4</td><td>$ 654.7</td><td>$ 597.4</td><td>$ 555.1</td></tr></table>

(3) Net debt represents total debt minus cash and cash equivalents. Net debt is presented because the Company is aware that it is used by rating agencies, securities analysts, investors and other parties in evaluating the Company. (Also see note 1 above). The following table presents the reconciliation of total debt reported in accordance with GAAP to net debt:

<table><tr><td rowspan="3"></td><td colspan="5">(In millions)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="5">December 31,</td></tr><tr><td>2016</td><td>2015</td><td>2014</td><td>2013</td><td>2012</td></tr><tr><td>Total debt, net</td><td>$ 2,341.6</td><td>$ 1,938.0</td><td>$ 1,709.0</td><td>$ 1,411.5</td><td>$ 1,450.2</td></tr><tr><td>Less: Cash and cash equivalents</td><td>(717.3)</td><td>(381.0)</td><td>(377.6)</td><td>(295.2)</td><td>(158.0)</td></tr><tr><td>Net debt</td><td>1,624.3</td><td>1,557.0</td><td>1,331.4</td><td>1,116.3</td><td>1,292.2</td></tr><tr><td>Stockholders&#x27; equity</td><td>3,256.5</td><td>3,254.6</td><td>3,239.6</td><td>3,136.1</td><td>2,535.2</td></tr><tr><td>Capitalization (net debt plus stockholders&#x27; equity)</td><td>$ 4,880.8</td><td>$ 4,811.6</td><td>$ 4,571.0</td><td>$ 4,252.4</td><td>$ 3,827.4</td></tr><tr><td>Net debt as a percentage of capitalization</td><td>33.3%</td><td>32.4%</td><td>29.1%</td><td>26.3%</td><td>33.8%</td></tr></table>



## Notes to Financial Highlights

Adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted operating income margin are presented to provide investors with greater insight and increased transparency, and to allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The following table presents the reconciliation of operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share and operating income margin reported in accordance with GAAP to non-GAAP:
