Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations

(Unaudited)

The following table presents reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to loss from continuing operations, net of income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. These reconciliations are intended to provide useful information to investors and analysts as they evaluate the Company’s performance. EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as loss from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as EBITDA from continuing operations adjusted for certain other items as described below. We believe that the exclusion of these items from loss from continuing operations enables management and investors to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operations period over period and to identify operating trends that might not be apparent when including the excluded items. However, these measures should not be considered as an alternative to loss from continuing operations or other measures of performance that are derived in accordance with GAAP.

As to certain of the items in the table below: (i) stock-based compensation and expense may vary from period to period due to fair value adjustments from changes in market conditions, forfeiture rates, accelerated vesting and amounts granted; (ii) acquisition costs vary from period to period depending on the level of the Company’s acquisition activity; (iii) gains and losses on the disposal of assets varies from period to period depending on operational wear and tear and the condition of the Company’s long-lived assets; (iv) gains and losses on extinguishment and modification of debt varies from period to period depending on changes in the Company’s financing activities; and (v) gains and losses on financials instruments varies from period to period depending on changes in the share price of the Company’s common stock and certain fair value assumptions; (vi) impairments of goodwill and other intangible assets can vary from period to period depending on changes in market and macroeconomic conditions, the Company’s operational performance, and other factors; (vii) impairments of financed lease assets can vary from period to period depending on changes in the Company’s operations and use of equipment.

Because EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, as defined, exclude some, but not all, items that affect loss from continuing operations, such measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. The most comparable GAAP financial measure, loss from continuing operations, net of income taxes and information reconciling the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, are included below.

Estimated EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations

(Unaudited)

The following table presents reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to loss from continuing operations, net of income taxes for the full year ended December 31, 2022. These reconciliations are intended to provide useful information to investors and analysts as they evaluate the Company’s expected future performance. EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as loss from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is defined as EBITDA from continuing operations adjusted for certain other items as described below. We believe that the exclusion of these items from loss from continuing operations enables management and investors to more effectively evaluate the Company’s operations period over period and to identify operating trends that might not be apparent when including the excluded items. However, these measures should not be considered as an alternative to loss from continuing operations or other measures of performance that are derived in accordance with GAAP.
