Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) and Adjusted Earnings Per Share EBITDA represents net income (loss) for the respective periods excluding depreciation and amortization expense, interest income (expense) and income taxes. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding debt extinguishment; non-operating gains (losses); non-cash impairment charges and write-downs; activist shareholder response costs; executive transition costs and non-cash share-based compensation expense. The Company defines Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) as net income/(loss) excluding non-cash impairment charges and write-downs; debt extinguishment; executive transition costs and activist shareholder response costs. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Sales. The Company has included the term "Adjusted EBITDA" in our EBITDA reconciliation in order to adequately assess the operating performance of our television and Internet businesses and in order to maintain comparability to our analyst's coverage and financial guidance, when given. Management believes that the terms Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) allow investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our business operating results over different periods of time with those of other similar companies. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a metric to evaluate operating performance under the Company's management and executive incentive compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) should not be construed as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss) or to cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed as measures of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. The Company has included a reconciliation of each of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) to net income (loss), their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, in this release.
