This measure is similar to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, a commonly used measure of a business' ability to generate cash flow without consideration of its financing structure. EBITDA is widely used by commercial banks, investment bankers, rating agencies and investors in evaluating performance relative to peers and pre-set performance standards. Neither adjusted operating income nor EBITDA are measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and, accordingly, should not be considered as a substitute for net income or cash flows from operating activities prepared in accordance with GAAP.
