This release contains Adjusted EBITDA, a financial measure presented on a non-GAAP basis.
Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding Solstice Advanced Materials' ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. This measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, the most comparable GAAP measure. Refer to the Appendix attached to this release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Appendix
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
The following information provides the definition and reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure presented in this press release to which this reconciliation is attached to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
Management believes that, when considered together with reported amounts, this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding Solstice Advanced Materials' ongoing operations and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. This measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, the most comparable GAAP measure. Other companies may calculate this non-GAAP measure differently, limiting the usefulness of this measure for comparative purposes.
Management does not consider this non-GAAP measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of this non-GAAP financial measure is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the combined financial statements. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining this non-GAAP financial measure. Investors are urged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate Solstice Advanced Materials' business.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income excluding income taxes, depreciation, amortization, interest and other financial charges, other expense, stock compensation expense, pension and other postretirement income (expense), transaction-related costs, repositioning charges, asset retirement obligation accretion, and certain other items that are otherwise of an unusual or non-recurring nature (including but not limited to impairment charges, litigation and insurance settlements, and gains and losses on disposal of assets). We believe this measure is useful to investors as it provides greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making, as well as understanding ongoing operating trends.
