Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures
The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. Management believes that these financial performance measures are the primary drivers for our earnings and net cash from operating activities. Management evaluates its contracts and business performance by focusing on revenue, and operating income. Operating income represents revenue less both cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. Cost of revenue consists of labor, subcontracting costs, materials, and an allocation of indirect costs. SG&A expenses consist of indirect labor costs (including wages and salaries for executives and administrative personnel), bid and proposal expenses and other general and administrative expenses not allocated to cost of revenue. Backlog is the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts.
We manage the nature and amount of costs at the program level, which forms the basis for estimating our total costs and profitability. This is consistent with our approach for managing our business, which begins with management's assessing the bidding opportunity for each contract and then managing contract profitability throughout the performance period.
In addition to the key performance measures discussed above, we consider adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net leverage ratio and adjusted operating cash flow to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives. We provide this information to our investors in our earnings releases, presentations, and other disclosures.
Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net leverage ratio, and adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Definitions and reconciliations of these items are provided below.
-- Adjusted operating income is defined as operating income, adjusted to
exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, significant
charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items that
impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations,
such as M&A, integration, and related costs.
-- Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude
depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, and items that may
include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits, and
unusual and infrequent non-operating items that impact current results
but are not related to our ongoing operations, such as M&A, integration,
and related costs.
-- Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
-- Adjusted net income is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude items
that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or
credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items that impact
current results but are not related to our ongoing operations, such as
M&A, integration and related costs, amortization of acquired intangible
assets, amortization of debt issuance costs, and loss on extinguishment
of debt.
-- Adjusted diluted earnings per share is defined as adjusted net income
divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
-- Cash interest expense, net is defined as interest expense, net adjusted
to exclude amortization of debt issuance costs.
-- Adjusted net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or adjusted
operating cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (or used in)
operating activities adjusted to exclude infrequent non-operating items,
such as M&A payments and related costs.
