In its conference calls, the Company may make references to adjusted EBITDA, which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and other non-cash items. The Partnership believes adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure of park-level operating profitability. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of operating performance computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not intended to be a substitute for operating income, net income or cash flow from operating activities as defined under generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, adjusted EBIDTA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
