Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, most specifically adjusted EBITDA, as a supplement to GAAP financial measures to further evaluate the Company's operating performance period over period, analyze the underlying business trends, assess performance relative to competitors and establish operational objectives.
Management believes it is important to provide investors with the same non-GAAP metrics it uses to evaluate the performance and underlying trends of the Company's business operations to facilitate comparisons to its historical operating results and evaluate the effectiveness of its operating strategies. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates comparisons of the Company's underlying operating performance with other companies in the industry that also supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which is calculated by adding interest income and expense, net; provision for income taxes; and depreciation and amortization to net loss. In calculating non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, the Company further adjusts for the following items:
- Stock-based compensation expense and other equity-related charges – Nevro excludes non-cash costs related to the company's stock-based plans, which include stock options, restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units as these expenses do not require cash settlement from the company. In the period ended December 31, 2023, Nevro also excluded one-time equity-related charges of
associated with the company's acquisition of Vyrsa Technologies.$1.9 million - Amortization of intangibles – The company excludes amortization of intangibles from the acquisition of businesses.
- Change in fair value of contingent consideration – The company excludes the changes in the fair value of its contingent consideration liability.
- Goodwill impairment – The company excludes any goodwill impairment.
- Change in fair market value of warrants – The company excludes the changes in the fair value of its warrant liability.
- Gain on extinguishment of debt – The company excludes gains and losses from extinguishment of early debt repayment.
- Litigation-related expenses – The company excludes legal and professional fees as well as charges and credits associated with certain legal matters, which management considers not related to the underlying operating performance of the business.
- Restructuring charges – The company excludes charges incurred as a direct result of restructuring programs, such as salaries and other compensation-related expenses.
- Supplier contract renegotiation charge - Nevro excludes one-time costs associated with the renegotiation of a supplier contract in 2024.
The non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation from, or as a replacement for, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as it is not prepared in accordance with
Amounts may not add due to rounding.
