Non-GAAP Financial Information

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income or loss from continuing operations before depreciation, amortization, interest expense, interest income, sales taxes and regulatory fee expense or benefit, loss on extinguishment of debt, changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments and stock-based compensation, and severance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to replace operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow or other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Rather, Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure used by management to assess the operating performance of the company. Adjusted EBITDA as defined here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in accounting policies. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA as defined here does not have the same meaning as EBITDA as defined in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings prior to this date. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss is shown below.

The information in this release may contain statements that are or may be deemed to be forward-looking statements and involve factors, risks, and uncertainties that may cause actual results in future periods to differ materially from such statements. These factors, risks, and uncertainties include market acceptance and availability of new video communications services; the non-exclusive and terminable-at-will nature of sales agreements; rapid technological change affecting demand for our services; competition from other video communication service providers; and the availability of sufficient financial resources to enable us to expand our operations, as well as other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We make no representation or warranty that the information contained herein is complete and accurate; we have no duty to correct or update any information.
