4 Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Safe Harbor Non-GAAP Financial Measures Certain financial measures presented herein, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt were derived based on methodologies other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We have included these measures because we believe they are indicative of our operating performance, are used by investors and analysts to evaluate us and can facilitate comparisons across periods. As presented by us, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, see the appendix slides. Safe Harbor Forward Looking Statements: This presentation contains statements related to Nexeo Solutions, Inc.’s (“Nexeo” or the “Company”) future plans and expectations and, as such, includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are those statements that are based upon management’s current plans and expectations as opposed to historical and current facts. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation reflect management’s current assumptions based upon information currently available to management and based upon that which management believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot be certain that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. The Company’s future results will depend upon various risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties discussed in the Company’s SEC filings, including in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in such SEC filings. The Company does not intend to provide all information enclosed in this presentation on an ongoing basis.
