Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP financial information and believes it is useful to investors because it provides additional information to facilitate comparisons of historical operating results, identify trends in its underlying operating results, and provide additional insight and transparency into how it evaluates the business. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate its performance. The Company has detailed the non-GAAP adjustments it makes in the non-GAAP definitions below. These adjustments generally fall within the categories of non-cash items. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures presented herein should always be considered alongside, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the related GAAP financial measures. In addition, similarly titled items used by other companies may not be comparable due to variations in how they are calculated and how terms are defined. For further information, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below, including the reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, further adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation, M&A transaction-related costs, and changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance indicator the Company uses in evaluating its operating performance and in making financial, operating, and planning decisions. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors in evaluating Aeries’ operating performance, as such information is used by the Company’s management for internal reporting and planning procedures, including aspects of its consolidated operating budget and capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA has some limitations in that it does not reflect: (i) cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) foreign exchange gains or losses; (iii) changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital; (iv) significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on the Company’s outstanding debt; (v) payments made or future requirements for income taxes; (vi) cash requirements for future replacement or payment of depreciated or amortized assets; (vii) stock-based compensation costs; and (viii) changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the Company is unable to estimate significant non-recurring or unusual items without unreasonable effort. The amounts and timing of these items are uncertain and could be material to the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
