Mylan is not providing forward looking guidance for U.S. GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements and other contingencies, including changes to contingent consideration and certain other gains or losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.

Mylan CEO Heather Bresch commented, "Mylan's business continues to deliver solid results and I am pleased once again to provide a strong outlook for growth, especially given the U.S. environment. Our performance is a testament to the strength, diversification and resilience of our unique global platform, and it demonstrates that Mylan truly is built to last. In 2017, we delivered an 8% increase in total revenues year over year, as strong performances by our Europe and Rest of World segments more than offset ongoing volatility across the healthcare industry in the U.S. marketplace. Adjusted EPS fell 7% compared to 2016, as we absorbed a decline in profitability of approximately $500 million associated with the rebasing of EpiPen, while adjusted free cash flows grew more than 20% year over year, to $2.63 billion.

"We're anticipating a strong financial performance in 2018, with revenues of $11.75 billion to $13.25 billion, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 5% at the midpoint, and adjusted EPS in the range of $5.20 to $5.60, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 18% at the midpoint. As important, we look forward to continuing to lead the charge to break down barriers to access to affordable medicine around the world."

President Rajiv Malik said, "2017 clearly demonstrated the strength of our scientific, clinical, regulatory, and intellectual property capabilities and the positive momentum we have built to bring complex products to the market. We realized many opportunities incubated over the last several years, including key product approvals like the first 40 mg/mL strength of glatiramer acetate in the U.S. and Europe, trastuzumab, the first biosimilar to Herceptin® for the U.S. market as well as the first generic version of Allergan's Estrace® Cream. We have also created a diversified commercial platform across geographies and channels with a differentiated and durable product portfolio. This unique platform makes us a partner of choice for our customers around the globe."

"2018 will be a year of execution, including our expectation of significant launches such as generic Advair® in the U.S. and pegfilgrastim, our first biosimilar launch in the U.S., insulin glargine in Europe and hundreds more across the globe. We will continue to execute integration activities to further optimize our cost structure. At the same time, we will be strategically reinvesting in our business, especially in areas such as sales and marketing and lifecycle management of several global key products, all supported by our ONE Mylan approach across geographies and channels."

Mylan CFO Ken Parks added, "In 2017, Mylan once again benefited from our diversified global platform which drove significant cash flow generation. Our adjusted free cash flow increased 23% to $2.63 billion. In 2018, we remain committed to deleveraging, while allowing for financial flexibility as we continue to execute on our business plan, and maintaining our commitment to an investment grade credit rating."

Fourth Quarter 2017 Financial Results

Total revenues were $3.24 billion in the fourth quarter of 2017, compared to $3.27 billion in the prior year period. Third party net sales for the current quarter were $3.19 billion compared to $3.22 billion for the prior year period, a decrease of $31.8 million, or 1%. Below is a summary of third party net sales in each of our segments for the three months ended December 31, 2017:

    --  Third party net sales in the North America segment totaled $1.30
        billion, a decrease of $262.1 million or 17% from the prior year period.
        Third party net sales were negatively impacted in the current quarter
        due to a decline in sales of existing products as a result of lower
        pricing and volume, partially offset by new product introductions. As
        anticipated, our North American generics business experienced higher
        price erosion than in previous quarters, including the impact of the
        loss of market exclusivity of olmesartan and olmesartan HCTZ. Sales of
        the EpiPen® Auto-Injector declined in the current quarter by $131.9
        million as a result of the impact of the launch of the authorized
        generic, higher governmental rebates as a result of Mylan agreeing to
        the terms of a $465 million settlement with the U.S. Department of
        Justice and other government agencies related to the classification of
        the EpiPen® Auto-Injector for purposes of the Medicaid Drug Rebate
        Program (the "Medicaid Drug Rebate Program Settlement") and increased
        competition. The impact of foreign currency translation on current
        period third party net sales was not significant.


    --  Partially offsetting the decrease in North America was third party net
        sales growth in the Europe segment of $143.8 million, or 16% in the
        current quarter. Third party net sales in Europe totaled $1.1 billion in
        the current quarter. The increase was primarily the result of new
        product introductions across the region combined with favorable volume
        and pricing on existing products. The favorable impact of foreign
        currency translation on current period third party net sales was $87.4
        million or 9%.
    --  Third party net sales in the Rest of World segment totaled $815.7
        million in the current quarter, an increase of $86.5 million, or 12%.
        This increase was primarily driven by new products and increased net
        sales from our anti-retroviral ("ARV") franchise and higher sales in
        emerging markets, which were driven primarily by higher volumes. These
        increases were partially offset by lower pricing in the region. The
        favorable impact of foreign currency translation was $25.1 million, or
        3%.

Other third party revenues for the current quarter were $49.1 million compared to $46.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of $2.9 million, which was principally due to an increase in royalty income.

Gross profit was $1.29 billion and $1.34 billion for the fourth quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Gross margins were 40% and 41% in the fourth quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Adjusted gross profit was $1.80 billion and adjusted gross margins were 55% for the fourth quarter of 2017 compared to adjusted gross profit of $1.85 billion and adjusted gross margins of 57% in the prior year period. Gross margins and adjusted gross margins were negatively impacted in the current quarter as a result of lower gross profit from the sales of existing products in North America, including the EpiPen® Auto-Injector, partially offset by contributions from new products.

R&D expense for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017 was $202.4 million, compared to $194.6 million for the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the timing of expenditures for certain clinical activities and expenses related to the Company's collaboration with Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Momenta").

SG&A expense for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017 was $659.1 million, compared to $708.5 million for the prior year period. The decrease from the comparable prior year period was primarily due to lower restructuring related costs and the positive impact of integration activities in the current quarter.

Litigation settlements and other contingencies, net for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017 was $12.7 million, compared to $116.1 million for the prior year period. The decrease from the comparable prior year period was primarily a result of the prior year litigation charge for the modafinil antitrust litigation matter.

U.S. GAAP net earnings decreased by $173.2 million to $244.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, compared to net earnings of $417.5 million for the prior year period and U.S. GAAP EPS decreased to $0.46 from $0.78 in the prior year period. The reduction in U.S. GAAP net earnings is principally the result of the recognition of a tax benefit in the prior year of $192.6 million as compared to tax expense in the current period of $82.8 million, which also includes the provisional impact of $128.6 million related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. U.S. GAAP earnings before income taxes increased in the current quarter by approximately $102.2 million as a result of lower operating expenses as discussed above. Adjusted net earnings decreased by $76.9 million to $765.3 million as compared to $842.2 million for the prior year period and Adjusted EPS decreased to $1.43 from $1.57 in the prior year period mainly driven by lower gross profit from net sales in North America partially offset by the impact of integration activities.

EBITDA was $962.2 million for the current quarter and $878.5 million for the comparable prior year period. After adjusting for certain items as further detailed in the reconciliation below, adjusted EBITDA was $1.12 billion for the current quarter and $1.21 billion for the comparable prior year period.

Year Ended December 31, 2017 Financial Results

For the year ended December 31, 2017, Mylan reported total revenues of $11.91 billion, compared to $11.08 billion for the prior year period, representing an increase of $830.8 million, or 8%. Third party net sales for the year ended December 31, 2017 were $11.76 billion, compared to $10.97 billion for the prior year period, representing an increase of $792.9 million, or 7%. Contributing to the overall increase in total revenues were incremental net sales from the acquisitions of Meda AB (publ) ("Meda") and the non-sterile, topicals-focused business (the "Topicals Business") of Renaissance Acquisition Holdings, LLC totaling approximately $1.41 billion. This increase was partially offset by a net decrease in net sales from existing products and lower new product introductions of approximately $764.1 million. Below is a summary of third party net sales in each of our segments for the year ended December 31, 2017:

    --  Third party net sales in the North America segment totaled $4.97
        billion, a decrease of $659.9 million or 12% from the prior year. Net
        sales of existing products decreased principally due to lower pricing
        and, to a lesser extent, lower volume. This was partially offset by
        incremental net sales from the acquisitions of Meda and the Topicals
        Business, totaling approximately $340.0 million. For the year ended
        December 31, 2017, as anticipated, the U.S. generics products
        experienced price erosion in the high-single-digits, which includes the
        impact of loss of exclusivity of armodafinil, olmesartan and olmesartan
        HCTZ during 2017. Sales of the EpiPen® Auto-Injector declined
        approximately $655.4 million from the prior year as a result of the
        impact of the launch of the authorized generic, higher governmental
        rebates as a result of the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program Settlement, and
        increased competition. Excluding the negative impact of the lower sales
        of the EpiPen® Auto-Injector of approximately $655.4 million, overall
        third-party sales in North America were unchanged in 2017 compared with
        2016. The impact of foreign currency translation on current period third
        party net sales was insignificant within North America.


    --  Third party net sales in the Europe segment totaled $3.96 billion, an
        increase of $1.00 billion or 34% from the prior year. This increase was
        primarily the result of incremental net sales from the acquisition of
        Meda of approximately $833.2 million during the year ended December 31,
        2017. Net sales of existing products increased primarily as a result of
        sales of new products and favorable pricing and volume. The favorable
        impact of foreign currency translation on current period third party net
        sales was $89.7 million, or 3%. Constant currency third party net sales
        increased by approximately $914.8 million, or 31% when compared to the
        prior year.
    --  Third party net sales in the Rest of World segment totaled $2.83
        billion, an increase of $448.3 million or 19% from the prior year. This
        increase was primarily the result of incremental net sales from the
        acquisition of Meda totaling approximately $229.2 million. In addition,
        net sales from existing products increased principally as a result of
        higher volume, particularly from our ARV franchise, and to a lesser
        extent in Australia and emerging markets. Throughout the segment, higher
        volumes and sales of new products more than offset lower pricing. The
        favorable impact of foreign currency translation was $52.2 million, or
        2%. Constant currency third party net sales increased by approximately
        $396.1 million, or 17%.

Other third party revenues for the year ended December 31, 2017 were $147.7 million, compared to $109.8 million for the prior year period, an increase of $37.9 million. The increase in other third party revenues was principally the result of an increase in royalty income from arrangements acquired in the Meda acquisition.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $4.78 billion and gross margins were 40%. For the year ended December 31, 2016, gross profit was $4.70 billion and gross margins were 42%. Gross margins were negatively impacted in the current period by incremental amortization expense as a result of the acquisitions of Meda and the Topicals Business and by lower gross profit from the sales of existing products in North America, including the EpiPen® Auto-Injector, partially offset by the contributions from the acquired businesses. Adjusted gross profit was $6.42 billion and adjusted gross margins were approximately 54% for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to adjusted gross profit of $6.21 billion and adjusted gross margins of approximately 56% for the year ended December 31, 2016. Adjusted gross margins were negatively impacted in the current period as a result of lower gross profit from the sales of existing products in North America, partially offset by the contributions from the acquired businesses.

R&D expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $783.3 million, compared to $826.8 million for the prior year, a decrease of $43.5 million. The decrease was due to lower spending when compared to the prior year as a result of the Company's reprioritization of global programs. Partially offsetting this decrease was the impact from incremental R&D expense related to the acquisitions of Meda and the Topicals Business of approximately $45.4 million in the current year.

SG&A expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $2.58 billion, compared to $2.50 billion for the prior year, an increase of $79.7 million. The increase is due primarily to additional incremental expense related to the acquisitions of Meda and the Topicals Business which increased SG&A by approximately $213.1 million. Restructuring charges recorded in SG&A were $133.6 million and $113.1 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Partially offsetting these increases were acquisition related costs which were $110.8 million lower than the prior year as well as the year over year benefit of integration activities.

Litigation settlements and other contingencies, net decreased from the prior year period primarily due to the prior year charges for the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program Settlement and the modafinil antitrust litigation matter and the recognition in the current year of a net gain in fair value adjustments related to contingent consideration liabilities.

U.S. GAAP net earnings increased by $216.0 million to $696.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $480.0 million for the prior year. U.S. GAAP EPS increased from $0.92 to $1.30 in the current year. Adjusted net earnings decreased to $2.44 billion in the current year from $2.55 billion in the prior year and Adjusted EPS decreased to $4.56 in the current year from $4.89 in the prior year primarily driven by the lower gross profit from the sales of existing products in North America, partially offset by the contributions from the acquired businesses and the impact of integration activities.

EBITDA was $3.30 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017, and $2.21 billion for the prior year period. After adjusting for certain items as further detailed in the reconciliation below, adjusted EBITDA was $3.79 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017 and $3.68 billion for the prior year period.

Cash Flow

U.S. GAAP net cash provided by operating activities was $2.06 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $2.05 billion for the prior year period. Capital expenditures were approximately $275.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to approximately $390.4 million for the prior year period. Adjusted net cash provided by operating activities was $2.88 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $2.52 billion for the prior year, driven by higher litigation and restructuring payments partially offset by lower acquisition related payments. Adjusted free cash flow, defined as adjusted net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, net of proceeds from certain asset sales, was $2.63 billion for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $2.13 billion in the prior year. The increase in 2017 to adjusted free cash flow was driven primarily by the change in adjusted net cash provided by operating activities and lower capital expenditures.

Guidance

Mylan expects 2018 total revenues in the range of $11.75 billion to $13.25 billion, the midpoint of which represents an increase of 5% versus 2017. As discussed in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below, Mylan is not otherwise providing forward looking guidance for U.S. GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $5.20 to $5.60, the midpoint of which represents an increase of 18% versus 2017.

The following table provides a summary of Mylan's 2018 full year guidance ranges.

Conference Call

As previously announced, Mylan N.V. will host a webcast at 5:00 p.m. ET today, to discuss the Company's financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017, along with financial guidance for 2018. The webcast can be accessed live by calling 800.514.4861 or 678.809.2405 for international callers (ID#: 4095484) or at the following address on the Company's website: investor.mylan.com. A replay of the webcast also will be available on the website.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the presentation and discussion of certain financial information that differs from what is reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, including, but not limited to, adjusted EPS, constant currency third party net sales from North America, constant currency third party net sales from Europe, constant currency third party net sales from Rest of World, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margins, adjusted net earnings, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted R&D, adjusted SG&A, adjusted R&D as a % of total revenues, adjusted SG&A as a % of total revenues, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted net cash provided by operating activities and adjusted free cash flow are presented in order to supplement investors' and other readers' understanding and assessment of the financial performance of Mylan N.V. ("Mylan" or the "Company"). Management uses these measures internally for forecasting, budgeting, measuring its operating performance, and incentive-based awards. In addition, primarily due to acquisitions, Mylan believes that an evaluation of its ongoing operations (and comparisons of its current operations with historical and future operations) would be difficult if the disclosure of its financial results were limited to financial measures prepared only in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures are useful supplemental information for our investors and when considered together with our U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting our operations. The financial performance of the Company is measured by senior management, in part, using the adjusted metrics included herein, along with other performance metrics. Management's annual incentive compensation is derived, in part, based on the adjusted EPS metric and the adjusted free cash flow metric. In addition, the Company believes that including EBITDA and supplemental adjustments applied in presenting adjusted EBITDA and Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA (as defined below) pursuant to our Credit Agreements is appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate the Company's ability to comply with financial debt covenants and assess the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness. We also report sales performance using the non-GAAP financial measure of "constant currency" total revenues and third party net sales. This measure provides information on the change in net sales assuming that foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior and current period. The comparisons presented as constant currency rates reflect comparative local currency sales at the prior year's foreign exchange rates. We routinely evaluate our third party net sales performance at constant currency so that sales results can be viewed without the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating a period-to-period comparison of our operational activities, and we believe that this presentation also provides useful information to investors for the same reason. The "Summary of Total Revenues by Segment" table below compares third party net sales on an actual and constant currency basis for each reportable segment for the quarters and years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Also, set forth below, Mylan has provided reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Investors and other readers are encouraged to review the related U.S. GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures set forth below, and investors and other readers should consider non-GAAP measures only as supplements to, not as substitutes for or as superior measures to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

For additional information regarding the components and uses of Non-GAAP financial measures refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-- Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of Mylan's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Mylan is not providing forward looking guidance for U.S. GAAP reported financial measures or a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring expenses, asset impairments, litigation settlements and other contingencies, including changes to contingent consideration and certain other gains or losses. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on U.S. GAAP reported results for the guidance period.

Significant items for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017 include the following:

((a)) The increase in purchase accounting related amortization for the current year is due to the incremental amortization expense associated with the intangible assets related to the Topicals Business and Meda acquisitions. The fourth quarter of 2017 includes intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $61.6 million. The fourth quarter of 2016 includes amortization of the purchase accounting inventory fair value adjustments for Meda and the Topicals Business totaling approximately $121.3 million, and intangible asset impairment charges of approximately $68.3 million.

((b) )The net gain for the current year is the result of a net gain of $64.2 million for contingent consideration fair value adjustments offset by a charge of $51.1 million related to litigation matters.

((c) )The fourth quarter 2017 includes a net gain of $42.2 million for the reduction of long-term obligations as a result of a decline in production levels at certain of the related clean energy facilities.

((d) )Acquisition related costs incurred in 2016 primarily relate to the acquisition of the Topicals Business (June 2016) and costs related to the Meda acquisition (August 2016). These costs primarily related to consulting, professional, and legal costs. Acquisition related costs incurred in 2017 consist primarily of integration activities.

((e) )For the year ended December 31, 2017, approximately $46.0 million is included in cost of sales, $8.4 million is included in R&D and $133.6 million is included in SG&A.

((f) )R&D expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 includes $31.9 million related to Momenta collaboration expense. The remaining activity for the year relates to upfront expense of $50.2 million related to a joint development and marketing agreement for a respiratory product and also related to several smaller collaboration agreements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This release contains "forward-looking statements." These statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, Mylan's 2018 financial guidance; that Mylan's performance is a testament to the strength, diversification and resilience of our unique global platform, and it demonstrates that Mylan truly is built to last; that Mylan is anticipating a strong financial performance in 2018, with revenues of $11.75 billion to $13.25 billion, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 5% at the midpoint, and adjusted EPS in the range of $5.20 to $5.60, representing year-over-year growth of approximately 18% at the midpoint; that Mylan looks forward to continuing to lead the charge to break down barriers to access to affordable medicine around the world; that 2018 will be a year of execution, including significant launches such as generic Advair in the U.S. and pegfilgrastim, our first biosimilar launch in the U.S., insulin glargine in Europe and hundreds more across the globe; that Mylan will continue to execute on integration activities while leveraging our differentiated platform cost structure; that we will be strategically reinvesting in our business, especially in areas such as sales and marketing and lifecycle management of several global key products, all supported by our ONE Mylan approach across geographies and channels; that in 2018, Mylan remains committed to deleveraging, while allowing for financial flexibility as we continue to execute on our business plan, and maintaining our commitment to an investment grade credit rating. These may often be identified by the use of words such as "will," "may," "could," "should," "would," "project," "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "plan," "estimate," "forecast," "potential," "intend," "continue," "target," and variations of these words or comparable words. Because forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties, actual future results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: the ability to meet expectations regarding the accounting and tax treatments of acquisitions, including Mylan's acquisition of Mylan Inc. and Abbott Laboratories' non-U.S. developed markets specialty and branded generics business; changes in relevant tax and other laws, including but not limited to changes in the U.S. tax code and healthcare and pharmaceutical laws and regulations in the U.S. and abroad; actions and decisions of healthcare and pharmaceutical regulators; the integration of acquired businesses or assets being more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected; operating costs, customer loss, and business disruption (including, without limitation, difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees, customers, clients, or suppliers) being greater than expected following acquisitions; the possibility that Mylan may be unable to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies in connection with acquisitions and the December 2016 announced restructuring programs in certain locations, within the expected time-frames or at all; expected or targeted future financial and operating performance and results; the capacity to bring new products to market, including but not limited to where Mylan uses its business judgment and decides to manufacture, market, and/or sell products, directly or through third parties, notwithstanding the fact that allegations of patent infringement(s) have not been finally resolved by the courts (i.e., an "at-risk launch"); any regulatory, legal, or other impediments to Mylan's ability to bring new products, including but not limited to generic Advair and Glatiramer Acetate Injection 20 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL, to market, including ongoing and unresolved allegations of patent infringement around our launch of Glatiramer Acetate Injection 40 mg/mL; success of clinical trials and Mylan's ability to execute on new product opportunities, including but not limited to generic Advair and Glatiramer Acetate Injection 20 mg/mL and 40 mg/mL; any changes in or difficulties with our inventory of, and the ability of Meridian Medical Technologies, a Pfizer Inc. company, to supply us with, or ability to distribute, the EpiPen® Auto-Injector and EpiPen Jr® Auto-Injector (collectively, "EpiPen® Auto-Injector") to meet anticipated demand; the potential impact of any change in patient access to the EpiPen® Auto-Injector and the introduction of a generic version of the EpiPen® Auto-Injector; the scope, timing, and outcome of any ongoing legal proceedings, including government investigations, and the impact of any such proceedings on financial condition, results of operations, and/or cash flows; the ability to protect intellectual property and preserve intellectual property rights; the effect of any changes in customer and supplier relationships and customer purchasing patterns; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; changes in third-party relationships; the impact of competition; changes in the economic and financial conditions of the businesses of Mylan; the inherent challenges, risks, and costs in identifying, acquiring, and integrating complementary or strategic acquisitions of other companies, products, or assets and in achieving anticipated synergies; uncertainties and matters beyond the control of management; and inherent uncertainties involved in the estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial statements, and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in accordance with U.S. GAAP and related standards or on an adjusted basis.

    Notional debt to Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA Leverage Ratio                    3.8

Long-term average debt-to-adjusted EBITDA leverage target of ~3.0x

The stated forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure, targeted long term average leverage of ~3.0x debt-to-Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA, is based on the ratio of (i) targeted long-term average debt, and (ii) targeted long-term Credit Agreement Adjusted EBITDA. However, the Company has not quantified future amounts to develop the target but has stated its goal to manage long-term average debt and adjusted net earnings and EBITDA over time in order to generally maintain the target. This target does not reflect Company guidance.
