業務展望
對於2024年第四季度,ttm估計收入將在6.10億至6.50萬萬美元之間,而非通用會計溢利將在每股0.44至0.50美元的稀釋股份範圍內。
就該公司的前景展望而言,我們無法合理預測或毫無困難地預測可能影響按照GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標的某些事項。我們預期的每股按稀釋計算的淨收入主要不包括重組行動的未來影響、減值費用、異常收益和損失以及稅收調整。這些補充項目變動很大,很難預測,因為受到管理層無法控制的各種因素的影響,可能對我們未來期間按照GAAP計算和呈現的每股按稀釋計算的淨收入產生實質影響。因此,未提供每股按稀釋計算的淨收入與按照GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標的調和,因為公司無法在不合理的努力下提供此調和。出於同樣的原因,TTm無法處理資訊的可能重要性。 非核心概念(non-GAAP) 每股按稀釋計算的預期淨收入不包括主要有未來重組行動、減值費用、異常收益和損失以及稅收調整的影響。這些調和項目變動很大且難以預測,因為受到各種管理層無法控制的因素影響,可能對我們未來期間按照GAAP計算和呈現的每股按稀釋的淨收入產生顯著影響。因此,由於公司無法在不合理的努力下提供這種調和,未提供將每股按稀釋的淨收入調和為按照GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標。 非核心概念(non-GAAP) 就該公司的前景展望而言,我們無法合理預測或毫無困難地預測可能影響按照GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標的某些事項。我們預期的每股按稀釋計算的淨收入主要不包括重組行動的未來影響、減值費用、異常收益和損失以及稅收調整。這些補充項目變動很大,很難預測,因為受到管理層無法控制的各種因素的影響,可能對我們未來期間按照GAAP計算和呈現的每股按稀釋計算的淨收入產生實質影響。因此,未提供每股按稀釋計算的淨收入與按照GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標的調和,因為公司無法在不合理的努力下提供此調和。出於同樣的原因,TTm無法處理資訊的可能重要性。 非核心概念(non-GAAP) 未提供每股按稀釋計算的淨收入與根據GAAP計算和呈現的可比指標的調和,因為公司無法在毫無困難的情況下提供這種調和。出於相同原因,ttm無法解釋這些信息的潛在重要性。

1 | This information provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, and adjusted EBITDA to the financial information in our consolidated condensed statements of operations. |
2 | Non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin measures exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, unrealized (gain) loss on commodity hedge, purchase accounting related inventory markup, and other charges. |
3 | Non-GAAP operating income and operating margin measures exclude amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of property, unrealized (gain) loss on commodity hedge, purchase accounting related inventory markup, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges. |
4 | This information provides non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes that both measures — which add back amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense on debt (before consideration of capitalized interest), gain on sale of property, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on sale of subsidiary, unrealized (gain) loss on commodity hedge, purchase accounting related inventory markup, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges as well as the associated tax impact of these charges and discrete tax items — provide additional useful information to investors regarding the Company’s ongoing financial condition and results of operations. |
5 | Income tax adjustments reflect the difference between income taxes based on a non-GAAP tax rate and a forecasted annual GAAP tax rate. |
6 | Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before income taxes, interest expense, amortization of intangibles, depreciation, stock-based compensation expense, gain on sale of property, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on sale of subsidiary, unrealized (gain) loss on commodity hedge, purchase accounting related inventory markup, restructuring, acquisition-related costs, and other charges. We present adjusted EBITDA to enhance the understanding of our operating results, and it is a key measure we use to evaluate our operations. In addition, we provide our adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find adjusted EBITDA to be a useful measure for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. However, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity or as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. |
