RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
TO COMPARABLE GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In the Company’s quarterly results releases, trend schedules, conference calls, slide presentations, and webcasts, it may use or discuss Non-GAAP financial measures, as defined by Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes that the presentation of certain Non-GAAP financial measures in these materials provides information that is useful to investors because it allows for a more direct comparison of the Company’s performance for the period reported with the Company’s performance in prior periods. The Company cautions that Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported GAAP results. Management defines the Non-GAAP financial measures used as follows:
- Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues - contract revenues from businesses that are included for the entire period in both the current and prior year periods, excluding contract revenues from storm restoration services. Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenue change percentage is calculated as the change in Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues from the comparable prior year period divided by the comparable prior year period Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues. Management believes Non-GAAP Organic Contract Revenues is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s revenue performance with prior periods.
- Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA - net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, gain (loss) on sale of fixed assets, stock-based compensation expense, and certain non-recurring items. Management believes Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is a helpful measure for comparing the Company’s operating performance with prior periods as well as with the performance of other companies with different capital structures or tax rates.
Notes
1 Includes stock-based compensation expense of $5.7 million and $2.0 million for the quarters ended January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively, and $17.9 million and $9.9 million for the fiscal years ended January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively.
2 During the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.1 million in connection with the amendment and restatement of its credit agreement maturing in April 2026.
3 Net income for the quarter ended January 29, 2022 included income tax benefits of $4.3 million, or $0.14 per common share diluted, consisting of $4.2 million for credits related to tax filings for prior periods and other tax benefits and $0.1 million related to the vesting and exercise of share-based awards.
Net income for the fiscal years ended January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022 included income tax benefits of $7.6 million, or $0.25 per common share diluted, and $10.0 million, or $0.32 per common share diluted, respectively, related to the vesting and exercise of share-based awards, credits related to tax filings for prior periods, and other incremental tax benefits.
