NON-GAAP Financial Measures: EBITDA
As used herein, EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and the change in fair value of warrant liabilities. We believe that EBITDA should exclude the change in fair value of warrant liabilities because it represents a non-cash charge that is not related to the Company's operations. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure is not required by or defined under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), nor is the presentation of this financial measure intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including the net income or net loss of the Company. Management recognizes that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the items associated with the Company's net income or net loss as determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for or measure of the Company's profitability or net earnings. EBITDA is presented because we believe it is useful to investors as a measure of comparative operating performance and liquidity, as it is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from depreciation and amortization and due to non-cash charges for changes in fair value of warrant liabilities.
