3.We note your revised disclosure in response to prior comment 23. The added disclosure
regarding the range of net income as a percentage of revenues is not on a comparable
basis to your disclosure, which indicates that Adjusted EBITDA is improving. Please
revise to discuss the fluctuations or trends in net income during these periods or discuss
the fluctuations in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues in lieu of your current
disclosures. In addition, your discussion of GAAP net income should precede the
disclosures regarding Adjusted EBITDA. Refer to Question 102.10 of the Non-GAAP
Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations.
