United Rentals Financial Performance and Market Exposure
Historical EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA GAAP
Reconciliations ($M)
EBITDA represents the sum of net income (loss), loss on discontinued operations, net of tax, provision (benefit) for income taxes, interest expense, subordinated convertible debentures, net, depreciation of rental equipment, and non-rental depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA plus the adjusting items (determined at the time of the historic reporting) discussed below. These items are excluded from adjusted EBITDA internally when evaluating our operating performance and for strategic planning and forecasting
purposes, and allow investors to make a more meaningful comparison between our core business operating results over different periods of time, as well as with those of other similar companies. The EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margins represent EBITDA or adjusted
EBITDA divided by total revenue. Management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company's results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period growth,
and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our core business without regard to potential distortions. Additionally, management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA help investors gain an understanding of the factors and
trends affecting our ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. The tables below provide 1) a reconciliation between net income and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and 2) a reconciliation between net cash provided by operating
activities and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
