2 This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.
3 We have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure because we do not provide guidance for the various reconciling items. We are unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because we cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted due to the fact that these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliation to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort.
