Presentation of Financial Information

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a widely used measure of operating performance in our industry and is a principal basis for valuation of gaming companies.

Adjusted EBITDA includes net income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, write-downs and other charges, net, asset impairment, losses from assets held for sale, interest expense, net, (gain) loss on extinguishment/modification of debt, net, change in fair value of derivative instruments, provision for income tax and other.
