Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only as supplemental to, and not as superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of Skyline and Champion’s financial performance. Non-GAAP measures should be read only in conjunction with consolidated financials prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these financial measures are useful financial metrics to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. These financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or as measures of liquidity. Pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G, Skyline has provided reconciliations within these slides, as necessary, of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
