Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and special Items
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure. We believes this measure allows investors to better
understand the financial performance of the company by presenting earnings from our business operations without including the effects of capital structure, tax rates,
depreciation, and amortization. We further adjusted EBITDA to account for the impact of special items which are unusual or infrequent in nature.
