Forward-Looking Statements
The information presented here contains "forward-looking
statements," within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Forward-looking statements, which are based on
management's current expectations, are generally identifiable by
the use of terms such as "may," "will," "expects," "believes,"
"intends," "anticipates" and similar expressions. The potential
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied herein include
weather-related phenomena; market responses to industry
volume pressures; product and raw materials supplies and
pricing; energy supply and pricing; changes in interest and
currency exchange rates; economic crises and security risks in
developing countries; international conflict; and quotas, tariffs
and other governmental actions. Further information on the
factors that could affect Dole's financial results is included in its
SEC filings, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBIT before discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Significant Items, and Comparable Income
(loss) from continuing operations (total and per share) are measures commonly used by financial analysts in evaluating the
performance of companies. EBIT before discontinued operations is calculated from net income by adding interest expense and
income tax expense, and subtracting income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, and gain on disposal of discontinued
operations, net of income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated from EBIT before discontinued operations by: (1) adding depreciation
and amortization; (2) adding the net unrealized loss or subtracting the net unrealized gain on foreign currency and bunker fuel
hedges and the cross currency swap which do not have a more than insignificant financing element present at contract inception; (3)
adding the net loss or subtracting the net gain on the long-term Japanese yen hedges; (4) adding the foreign currency loss or
subtracting the foreign currency gain on the vessel obligations; (5) adding the net unrealized loss or subtracting the net unrealized
gain on foreign denominated instruments; and (6) subtracting the gain on asset sales.  Due to the fact that the long-term Japanese
yen hedges had more than an insignificant financing element at inception, the liability is treated similar to a debt instrument and the
associated cash flows are classified as a financing activity. As a result, both the realized and unrealized gains and losses related to
these hedges are subtracted from or added back to EBIT before discontinued operations when calculating Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA Excluding Significant Items is calculated from Adjusted EBITDA by: (1) adding the refinancing charges and loss on
early retirement of 2014 notes: and (2) subtracting the gain on container arbitration settlement. Comparable Income (loss) from
continuing operations is calculated from income (loss) from continuing operations by:  (1) adding charges for restructuring and long-
term receivables, net of income taxes; (2) adding the net unrealized loss or subtracting the net unrealized gain on foreign currency
and bunker fuel hedges and the cross currency swap, net of income taxes; (3) adding the net loss or subtracting the net gain on the
long-term Japanese yen hedges, net of income taxes; (4) adding the foreign currency loss or subtracting the foreign currency gain on
the vessel obligations, net of income taxes; (5) adding the net unrealized loss or subtracting the net unrealized gain on foreign
denominated instruments, net of income taxes; (6) adding the refinancing charges and loss on early retirement of 2014 notes, net of
income taxes; (7) subtracting the gain on container arbitration settlement, net of income taxes; and (8) subtracting gain on asset
sales, net of income taxes. These items have been adjusted because management excludes these amounts when evaluating the
performance of Dole. Net debt is calculated as total debt less cash. 
EBIT before discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable Income (loss) from continuing operations (total and per
share) are not calculated or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are not a substitute for net income attributable to Dole
Food Company, Inc., net income, income from continuing operations, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure
prescribed by U.S. GAAP. Further, EBIT before discontinued operations, Adjusted EBITDA and Comparable Income (loss) from
continuing operations (total and per share) as used herein are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures of other
companies. However, Dole has included these three measures herein because management believes that they are useful
performance measures for Dole and for securities analysts, investors and others in the evaluation of Dole.
