This press release includes presentations of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ('EBITDA') and adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for the loss on early extinguishment of debt and the one-time impact of accelerating previously unvested stock options. EBITDA is a measure commonly used by the capital markets to value enterprises. Interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization can vary significantly between companies due in part to differences in accounting policies, tax strategies, levels of indebtedness and interest rates. Excluding these items provides insight into the underlying results of operations and facilitates comparisons between Global and other companies. EBITDA is also a useful measure of the company's ability to service debt and is one of the measures used for determining debt covenant compliance. Management believes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA information is useful to investors for these reasons. Both EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. Management believes the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is net income and has provided a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income in this press release.
This news release contains forward-looking statements and statements based on forward-looking information, including statements relating to Global's expected future acquisitions, future revenue growth and future diluted earnings per share. These statements include the words 'expect,' 'believe,' 'should,' variations of such words, 'we are optimistic' and similar expressions which are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are based on numerous assumptions and are subject to uncertainties and risks. Actual results could differ materially. Factors that might cause Global's results to differ materially include risks relating to changes in the overall economy; rising interest rates; Global's debt and debt service obligations; the challenge of integrating acquired businesses; the need for funding acquisitions; Global's ability to close acquisitions in a timely and cost-effective manner; the need for skilled employees; rapid technological change in Global's industry; dependence on suppliers; and high levels of competition. Most of these risks are discussed in more detail under the caption 'Risk Factors' in Global's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2005 .
