RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS
Management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in certain instances to provide additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Excluding the impact of current exchange rate fluctuations may provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying business trends. In addition, within this presentation, including the tables that follow, reference is made to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and free cash flow.
Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by management and frequently used by the financial community which provides insight into an organizations operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, because interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a companys ability to service debt and is one of the measures used for determining the Companys debt covenant compliance. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that are unusual in nature or not comparable from period to period.
In addition, the Spectrum Brands management uses adjusted diluted earnings per share as one means of analyzing the Spectrum Brands current and future financial performance and identifying trends in its financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that adjusted diluted earnings per share is a useful measure for providing further insight into Spectrum Brands operating performance because it eliminates the effects of certain items that are not comparable from one period to the next.
Also, management believes that free cash flow is useful to both management and investors in their analysis of the Spectrum Brands ability to service and repay its debt and meet its working capital requirements. Free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for pretax income (loss), net income (loss), cash provided by (used in) operating activities or other statement of operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. In addition, the calculation of free cash flow does not reflect cash used to service debt and therefore, does not reflect funds available for investment or discretionary uses.
Spectrum Brands provides this information to investors to assist in comparisons of past, present and future operating results and to assist in highlighting the results of on-going operations. While Spectrum Brands management believes that non-GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace the Spectrum Brands GAAP financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

Note: Amounts calculated prior to rounding
(a) | It is the Companys policy to record Income tax expense (benefit), and interest expense on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, such amounts are not reflected in the operating results of the operating segments. |
(b) | Adjustment reflects accelerated restricted stock amortization associated with the Global Realignment restructuring initiatives. Inasmuch as this amount is included within Restructuring and related charges, this adjustment negates the impact of reflecting the add back of amortization. |
