“The first quarter marked a return to profitability for RealD, led by improved global 3D performance,” commented Michael V. Lewis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of RealD.  “3D percentages worldwide remain healthy and the fiscal 2016 3D film slate is among the most compelling in recent years.  As a result, the RealD box office grew to approximately $840 million.  Drivers of this growth included a strong global 3D film slate, improved consumer demand and continued growth in China.  With our global cinema platform established, we are well positioned to deliver strong RealD box office and improved operating leverage.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, we provide Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow as supplemental measures of our performance.  We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus expenses for interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairment and stock-based compensation plus net foreign exchange loss (gain) plus expenses comprising the non-U.S. GAAP categories “restructuring charges, severance costs and reserves” and “non- recurring expenses” as defined in our Credit Agreement.  We define free cash flow as total cash provided (used) by operating activities less cash used in purchases of property and equipment and cash used in purchases of cinema systems and related components.

We present Adjusted EBITDA in reporting our financial results to provide investors with additional tools to evaluate our operating results in a manner that focuses on what our management believes to be our ongoing business operations. We present free cash flow to provide investors a metric for our capacity to generate cash from our operating and investing activities to sustain our operating activities. Management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider any such non-U.S. GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.  Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow are used by management for planning purposes, including: the preparation of internal budgets, forecasts and strategic plans; in analyzing the effectiveness of business strategies; to evaluate potential acquisitions; in making compensation decisions; and in communications with its Board of Directors concerning financial performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.  Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not consider certain cash requirements such as tax and debt service payments.
