Comments on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

From time to time, M. Dias Branco discloses so-called non-GAAP financial measures, primarily EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA means net income before net financial expenses, income and social contribution taxes, depreciation, amortization, and non-operating result. Adjusted EBITDA means EBITDA adjusted with the adding of: (i) taxes which do not represent effective cash disbursements in paying such levies; and (ii) non-recurring items of the income of statement. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not Brazilian or the U.S. GAAP measurement, do not represent cash flows for the periods presented, and should not be considered alternatives to net income as indicators of M. Dias Branco’s operating performance or as alternatives to cash flows as indicators of liquidity. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not have standardized meanings and M. Dias Branco’s definition of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as used by other companies.

Although the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not provide, according to the Brazilian Accounting Principles (BR GAAP) or the U.S. Accounting Principles (US GAAP), measures of the operational cash flows, M. Dias Branco management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to measure its operating performance. Additionally, the Company management believes that disclosure of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA can provide useful information to investors, financial analysts, and the public in their review of the Company’s operating performance and its comparison to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry and other industries.
