 Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This news release includes non-GAAP financial measures for the Company and its reporting segments, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Cost of Sales and Adjusted Gross Margins.

Please note that the non-GAAP measures described below are not a substitute for, or more meaningful than, net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities, operating income or any other measure prescribed by GAAP, and there are limitations to using non-GAAP measures. Certain items excluded from these non-GAAP measures are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost of capital, tax structure and the historic costs of depreciable assets. Also, other companies in SMG’s industry may define these nonGAAP measures differently than SMG does, and as a result, it may be difficult to use these nonGAAP measures to compare the performance of those companies to SMG’s performance. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered a measure of the income generated by SMG’s business or discretionary cash available to it to invest in the growth of its business. SMG’s management compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on SMG’s GAAP results and using these non-GAAP measures supplementally.

Adjusted EBITDA

SMG defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest expense, (iii) income taxes, and (iv) non cash items such as amortization of debt discounts, stock option expenses and other non-recurring and material items that management believes do not reflect our core operating performance. 

We have not reconciled nonGAAP forward-looking measures to their corresponding GAAP measures because certain items that impact these measures are unavailable or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable efforts.
