Guidance and non-GAAP financial measures

Guidance

The company only provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis. We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts necessary for such a reconciliation, in particular because special items, such as restructuring, litigation and other matters, used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events, the company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected EBITDA (non-GAAP). Our guidance speaks only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law. Specialties focused businesses are represented by the Industrial Products and Innovative Ag Solutions segments and the specialties part of the Phosphate Solutions segment. We present EBITDA from the phosphate specialties part of the Phosphate Solutions segment as we believe this information is useful to investors in reflecting the specialty portion of our business

Non-GAAP financial measures

We disclose in this presentation non-IFRS financial measures titled: adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS, segment EBITDA, segment EBITDA margin and free cash flow. Our management uses such non-GAAP measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and presents free cash flow to facilitate a review of our cash flows. We calculate our adjusted operating income by adjusting our operating income to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table "Adjustments to reported operating and net income." Certain of these items may recur. We calculate our adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders by adjusting our adjusted operating income, net income attributable to the company's shareholders to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table "Adjustments to reported operating and net income (Non-GAAP)" in our quarterly earnings release, excluding the total tax impact of such adjustments. We calculate our adjusted EBITDA by adding depreciation and amortization back to adjusted operating income. Adjusted EPS is calculated as adjusted net income divided by weighted-average diluted number of ordinary shares outstanding as provided in the reconciliation table under "Calculation of adjusted EPS." We calculate our segment EBITDA by adding back to our segment profit the depreciation and amortization for each segment. We calculate our segment EBITDA margin by dividing segment EBITDA by revenue. We calculate our free cash flow as our cash flows from operating activities net of our purchase of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets, and adding proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment, and dividends from equity-accounted investees during such period as presented in the reconciliation table under "Calculation of free cash flow." You should not view adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, adjusted EPS or EBITDA as a substitute for operating income or net income attributable to the company's shareholders determined in accordance with IFRS, adjusted EPS as a substitute for EPS, or free cash flow as a substitute for cash flows from operating activities and cash flows used in investing activities, and you should note that our definitions of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, EBITDA and free cash flow may differ from those used by other companies. However, we believe such non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses management believes are not indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, for free cash flow, we adjust our CAPEX to include any proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment because we believe such amounts offset the impact of our purchase of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets. We further adjust free cash flow to add dividends from equity-accounted investees because receipt of such dividends affects our residual cash flow. Free cash flow does not reflect adjustment for additional items that may impact our residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures, such as adjustments for charges relating to acquisitions, servicing debt obligations, changes in our deposit account balances that relate to our investing activities and other non-discretionary expenditures. Our management uses these non-IFRS measures to evaluate the company's business strategies and management's performance. We believe these non-IFRS measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of the financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate our performance. We present a discussion in the period-to-period comparisons of the primary drivers of changes in the company's results of operations. This discussion is based, in part, on management's best estimates of the impact of the main trends in its businesses. We have based the preceding discussion on our financial statements. You should read the preceding discussion together with our financial statements.
