1 Refer to “Statement of Use of Non-GAAP Measures” for non-GAAP definitions and refer to the financial schedules attached to this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The Company's updated full-year guidance reflects higher revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the Demand Response segment as a result of strong operating performance in the first quarter, and lower revenue for the Software segment as a result of the planned divestiture of a utility services business in the second quarter.  Excluding the planned divestiture, the Company's full-year revenue outlook for the Software segment is unchanged.

EnerNOC, Inc.
Statement on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses certain non-GAAP measures, including adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow, that exclude certain amounts. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The GAAP measure most comparable to adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net (loss) income attributable to EnerNOC, Inc. and the GAAP measure most comparable to free cash flow is cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included below.

Management uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Management believes that such measures help indicate underlying trends in the business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results, and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company’s operating performance. For example, management considers adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of the Company’s operational strength and performance of the business and a good measure of the Company’s historical operating trend. In addition, management considers free cash flow to be an indicator of the Company’s operating trend and performance of the business.

The following is an explanation of the non-GAAP measures that management utilizes, including the adjustments that management excluded as part of the non-GAAP measures:

  • Management defines adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income attributable to EnerNOC, Inc., excluding depreciation, amortization, asset impairments, stock-based compensation, direct and incremental expenses related to acquisitions, divestitures, and restructuring activities, gains on early extinguishment of debt, interest expense, income taxes and other income (expense), net.
  • Management defines free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus net cash provided by the sale of assets or disposals of businesses. Management defines capital expenditures as purchases of property and equipment, which includes capitalization of internal-use software development costs.

Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may have limitations as analytical tools. The non-GAAP financial information presented here should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered measures of the Company’s liquidity. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare the Company’s performance to that of other companies.
