NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Certain financial measures used in this Press Release are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and as such are considered non-GAAP financial measures. We provide these measures to enhance the user's overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance and the Company's prospects for the future. Investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP financial measures may not be defined in the same manner by other companies and, as a result, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Also, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives, or superior, to other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this Press Release are defined below.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted for: (i) interest expense, net; (ii) tax provision (benefit); (iii) gain on event cancellation insurance claims, as applicable; (iv) other (income) expense, net; (v) stock-based compensation expense; (vi) depreciation, amortization, and accretion; (vii) loss on impairment of lease related assets, as applicable; and (viii) acquisition and integration charges and certain other non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by GAAP Revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are important measures of our recurring operations as they exclude items not representative of our core operating results.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS: Represents GAAP net income (loss) and diluted net income (loss) per share adjusted for the impact of certain items directly related to acquisitions and other non-recurring items. These adjustments include (on a per share basis, in the case of Adjusted EPS): (i) the amortization of acquired intangibles*; (ii) acquisition and integration charges and other non-recurring items; (iii) gain on event cancellation insurance claims, as applicable; (iv) loss on impairment of lease related assets, as applicable; (v) the non-cash (gain) loss on de-designated interest rate swaps, as applicable; and (vi) the related tax effect. We believe Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are important measures of our recurring operations as they exclude items that may not be indicative of our core operating results.

* The Company excludes amortization of acquired intangibles because it is generally a fixed non-cash expense that can be significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions and management does not use it to evaluate core operating results. Although the Company excludes the amortization of acquired intangibles from Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of acquisition accounting and contribute to revenue generation.

Free Cash Flow: Represents cash provided by operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP less payments for capital expenditures. We believe Free Cash Flow is an important measure of the recurring cash generated by the Company's core operations that may be available to be used to repay debt obligations, repurchase our stock, invest in future growth through new business development activities, or make acquisitions.

Foreign Currency Neutral (FX Neutral): We provide foreign currency neutral dollar amounts and percentages for our contract values, revenues, certain expenses, and other metrics. These foreign currency neutral dollar amounts and percentages eliminate the effects of exchange rate fluctuations and thus provide a more accurate and meaningful trend in the underlying data being measured. We calculate foreign currency neutral dollar amounts by converting the underlying amounts in local currency for different periods into U.S. dollars by applying the same foreign exchange rates to all periods presented.
