Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Adjusted Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share.
This press release and the attached financial tables contain a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined under SEC rules. As required by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure in the schedule included in this press release, other than Adjusted Diluted Loss per Share for Fiscal 2026. The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide more information to assist investors in evaluating current period performance and in assessing future performance. For these reasons, internal management reporting also includes non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not superior to or as a substitute for, the GAAP financial measures presented in this release and the Company's financial statements and other publicly filed reports. Non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of any adjusted financial measures used in this release to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The reconciliation is attached to this release. The table included in the Non-GAAP Reconciliations section reconcile EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings per Share for the periods presented, to their respective most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of Adjusted Diluted Loss Per Share for fiscal 2026 is not available without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility of factors that may impact comparable GAAP measure.
