Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
2.We note your disclosure that your senior secured credit facilities use adjusted
EBITDA to measure your compliance with covenants, such as senior leverage ratio.
Please clarify whether you are using adjusted EBITDA as both a performance and
liquidity measure. If so, please enhance your disclosure to also reconcile adjusted
EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP liquidity measure, cash provided by
operating activities, and separately discuss the limitations of your non-GAAP
measures as both performance and liquidity measures.
In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments,
action or absence of action by the staff.
