  • Yellow Pages Limited Reports Strong Second Quarter 2022 Results, Announces Plan for $100 million Share Buyback and $24 million Pension Plan Voluntary Contribution, and Declares a Cash Dividend(1) | YP Corporate Live

    Press Releases Back to News Back to News Montreal (Quebec), August 5, 2022 — Yellow Pages Limited (TSX: Y) (the “Company”), a leading Canadian digital media and marketing company, released its operating and financial results today for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022 and made several announcements relating to its use of cash. “Today we report another significant step in our steady march toward revenue stability, while maintaining superior profitability, and we announce a plan to distribute cash of $100 million to our shareholders and $24 million into our defined benefit pension plan,” said David A. Eckert, President and CEO of Yellow Pages Limited. Eckert commented on the key developments: Approaching revenue stability. “For the seventh consecutive quarter since COVID-19 hit, and the twelfth of the last fourteen quarters overall, we report a favorable ‘bending of the revenue curve’ in Q2, with a better rate of change in revenue than reported for the previous quarter.” Continued favorable trends in bookings. “As we have said frequently, we continue to see increasingly favorable trends in our bookings, which are the leading indicator of our future reported revenue.” Strong quarterly earnings. “Our Adjusted EBITDA2 for the quarter was 34.2% of revenue, even higher than last year’s second quarter, despite our continued, productive investments in revenue initiatives and evolving product mix.” Ever-growing cash balance. “Our steadily strong cash generation has grown cash on hand to approximately $135 million as of the end of July.” Pension plan funding on track. “Consistent with our previously announced deficit-reduction plan, in the second quarter of 2022 alone we made $1 million of voluntary incremental payments toward our Defined Benefit Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit.” Quarterly dividend declared. “Our Board has declared a dividend of $0.15 per common share, to be paid on September 15, 2022 to shareholders of record as of August 25, 2022.” Completed common stock NCIB. “Under our current NCIB program, commenced August 10, 2021, the Company purchased 423,099 common shares for cash of $6.1 million during Q2, 2022. This completed our NCIB program, which resulted in the Company purchasing a cumulative total of 1,122,511 common shares for cash of $16.0 million.” Cash to Shareholders and to Pension Plan. “Our Board has approved the use of discretionary cash of $100 million to buy back the Company’s shares and also advance $24 million of planned voluntary contributions to the Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) by the end of the year, as part of a plan of arrangement.” (1) The dividend will be designated as an eligible dividend pursuant to subsection 89(14) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any applicable provincial legislation pertaining to eligible dividends. (2) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s interim condensed consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Refer to the section on Non-GAAP financial measures on page 5 of this document for more details. Second Quarter of 2022 Results Total revenues decreased 6.7% year-over-year and amounted to $69.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, an improvement from the decrease of 7.8% reported last quarter. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX totalled $22.6 million and the EBITDA less CAPEX margin was 32.4%. Net earnings increased to $12.7 million, or to $0.49 per diluted share. Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2022 Total revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022 decreased by 6.7% to $69.6 million, as compared to $74.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease in revenues is mainly due to the decline of our higher margin digital media and print products and to a lesser extent to our lower margin digital services products, thereby creating pressure on our gross profit margins. The decline rates for total revenues, digital revenues and print revenues all improved significantly year-over-year. Total revenue decline of 6.7% this quarter compares to a decline of 15.5% reported for the same period last year. Digital revenue decline of 5.2% this quarter compares to a decline of 13.6% reported for the same period last year. Print revenue decline of 11.2% this quarter compares to a decline of 20.8% reported for the same period last year. These improvements were due to better spend per customer as well as increased renewal rates. The improved customer spend per customer is due in part to increased pricing. Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased by $0.7 million or 2.7% to $23.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to $24.4 million for the same period last year. The Adjusted EBITDA margin1 increased by 1.4% to 34.2% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 32.8% for the same period last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is the result of revenue pressures, partially offset by price increases, the efficiencies from optimization in cost of sales, reductions in other operating costs including reductions in our workforce and associated employee expenses, the decrease in bad debt expense and the impact of the Company’s share-price on cash settled stock-based compensation expense. Revenue pressures, coupled with increased headcount in our salesforce partially offset by continued optimization, will continue to cause some pressure on margin in upcoming quarters. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX1 decreased by $0.5 million or 2.3% to $22.6 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, compared to $23.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease is driven by the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA. The adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin has increased to 32.4% for the second quarter of 2022 from 31.0% for the same period last year. (1) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s interim condensed consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Refer to the section on Non-GAAP financial measures on page 5 of this document for more details. Net earnings increased to $12.7 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022 compared to net earnings of $6.0 million, for the same period last year. While the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, was impacted by the loss on the early repayment of debt of $7.8 million, the increase in net earnings for the same period in 2022 is further explained by lower Adjusted EBITDA1 and the increase in restructuring and other charges, being more than offset by the decrease in financial charges due to lower debt as well as the decrease in depreciation and amortization. Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $3.7 million to $24.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. The decrease is mainly due to income taxes paid of $1.4 million, increased funding of post-employment benefit plans of $0.4 million, lower Adjusted EBITDA of $0.7 million, and by a decrease of $5.9 million from the change in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by lower financial charges paid of $4.3 million and lower restructuring and other charges paid of $0.7 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities is mainly due to the timing in the collection of trade receivables and the timing of payment of trade payables as well as the impact of the share price on cash settled share-based compensation. As at June 30, 2022, the Company had $129.3 million of cash. Plan of Arrangement The Board has approved a distribution to shareholders of approximately $100 million by way of a share repurchase from all shareholders pursuant to a statutory arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The arrangement will be effected pursuant to a plan of arrangement which provides that the Company will repurchase from shareholders pro rata an aggregate of 7,949,125 common shares at a purchase price of $12.58 per share, which represents the volume weighted average price for the five consecutive trading days ending the trading day immediately prior to August 5, 2022. Under the plan of arrangement, the Company will also advance the previously announced voluntary incremental cash contributions to the Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit by an amount of $24 million during the year ending December 31, 2022, bringing 2022 cash payments to the Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit to $30 million by the end of the year. The incremental voluntary cash infusion of $24 million during the year ended December 31, 2022 represents advancing the voluntary $6 million contributions intended in years 2027, 2028, 2029 and 2030 that were part of the Deficit Reduction Plan we announced in May of 2021 to increase the probability that the Pension Plan will be fully funded by 2030. The probability of achieving a wind-up ratio of 100% by 2030 is dependent upon certain uncontrollable factors, including, among others, market returns and discount rates. The Board will continue to review the Deficit Reduction Plan annually. The arrangement is subject to the approval of at least 66 2/3% of the votes cast by the holders of shares at a special meeting of shareholders that will be called to approve the arrangement. Shareholders holding in excess of 78% of the outstanding shares have agreed with the Company to vote in favor of the arrangement. The arrangement is also subject to the receipt of the approval of the Supreme Court of British Columbia. (1) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s interim condensed consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Refer to the section on Non-GAAP financial measures on page 5 of this document for more details.

Contacts: Investors Franco Sciannamblo Senior Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer investors@yp.ca Media Treena Cooper Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel communications@yp.ca Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin In order to provide a better understanding of the results, the Company uses the terms Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s interim condensed consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA to revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not performance measures defined under IFRS and are not considered an alternative to income from operations or net earnings in the context of measuring Yellow Pages performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and are therefore not likely to be comparable to similar measures used by other publicly traded companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be used as exclusive measures of cash flow since they do not account for the impact of working capital changes, income taxes, interest payments, pension funding, capital expenditures, business acquisitions, debt principal reductions and other sources and uses of cash, which are disclosed on page 13 of our August 4, 2022 MD&A. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to evaluate the performance of its business as it reflects its ongoing profitability. Management believes that certain investors and analysts use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to measure a company’s ability to service debt and to meet other payment obligations or as common measurement to value companies in the media and marketing solutions industry as well as to evaluate the performance of a business. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin The Company also uses Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX, which is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, less CAPEX which we define as additions to intangible assets and additions to property and equipment as reported in the Investing Activities section of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin is defined as the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX to revenues. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly traded companies. We use Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin to evaluate the performance of our business as it reflects cash generated from business activities. We believe that certain investors and analysts use Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin to evaluate the performance of businesses in our industry. The most comparable IFRS financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA less Capex is Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined above as Adjusted EBITDA) as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s interim condensed consolidated statements of income. Refer to page 9 of the August 4, 2022 MD&A for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX.

  • Yellow Pages Limited Reports Strong Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial and Operating Results and Declares a Cash Dividend1 | YP Corporate Live

    Press Releases Back to News Back to News Montreal (Quebec), February 15, 2023 — Yellow Pages Limited (TSX: Y) (the “Company”), a leading Canadian digital media and marketing company, released its operating and financial results today for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022. “We are pleased with our fourth quarter and full year results which reflect sustained strong profitability and cash generation and more progress toward revenue stability,” said David A. Eckert, President and CEO of Yellow Pages Limited. Eckert commented on the key developments: Strong quarterly earnings. “Our Adjusted EBITDA2 for the quarter and full year was 32.5% and 36.0% of revenue, respectively, despite our continued, productive investments in revenue initiatives and evolving product mix.” Cash to Shareholders and to Pension Plan. “During the quarter, we completed the previously announced plan of arrangement, distributing $100.0 million to shareholders and $24.0 million of voluntary contributions to our Defined Benefit Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit, in addition to our previously announced $1.0 million of voluntary incremental payments toward our Defined Benefit Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit.” Healthy cash balance. “Even after the disbursements to shareholders and the Pension Plan, our cash balance at the end of January was approximately $50 million.” Quarterly dividend declared. “Our Board has declared a dividend of $0.15 per common share, to be paid on March 15, 2023 to shareholders of record as of February 24, 2023.” Ever closer to revenue stability. “For the ninth consecutive quarter since COVID-19 hit, and the fourteenth of the last sixteen quarters overall, we report a favorable ‘bending of the revenue curve’ in Q4 2022, with a better rate of change in revenue than reported for the previous quarter.” Financial Highlights (In thousands of Canadian dollars, except percentage information and per share information) *Includes voluntary contributions to the Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”) of $24.0 million, made during the fourth quarter of 2022 pursuant to the plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). (1) The dividend will be designated as an eligible dividend pursuant to subsection 89(14) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any applicable provincial legislation pertaining to eligible dividends. (2) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Refer to the section on Non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this document for more details. Fourth Quarter of 2022 Results Total revenues decreased 5.9% year-over-year and amounted to $64.6 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, an improvement from the decrease of 6.5% reported last quarter. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX1 totalled $20.0 million and the EBITDA less CAPEX margin1 was 31.0%. Net income decreased to $29.4 million, or to $1.63 per diluted share. Cash flows from operating activities decreased year-over-year mainly due to the voluntary funding contribution payment of $24.0 million to the Pension Plan pursuant to the Arrangement. Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter of 2022 Total revenues for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022 decreased by 5.9% to $64.6 million, as compared to $68.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease in revenues is due to the decline of our higher margin YP digital media and print products and to a lesser extent to our lower margin digital services products, thereby creating pressure on our gross profit margins. The decline rates for total revenues, digital revenues and print revenues all improved significantly yearover-year. Total revenue decline of 5.9% this quarter compares to a decline of 10.5% reported for the same period last year. Digital revenue decline of 4.3% this quarter compares to a decline of 8.7% reported for the same period last year. Print revenue decline of 11.7% this quarter compares to a decline of 16.5% reported for the same period last year. These improvements were due to better spend per customer in digital, increased renewal rates as well as improvement in customer claims. The improved spend per customer is due in part to increased pricing. Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased to $21.0 million or 32.5% of revenues in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022, relative to $24.4 million or 35.5% of revenues for the same period last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin1 is the result of revenue pressures, ongoing investments in our tele-sales force capacity, the increase in cash-settled stock-based compensation expense due to movements in YP's share price and lower wage subsidies received, partially offset by price increases, efficiencies from optimization in cost of sales and reductions in other operating costs including reductions in our workforce and associated employee expenses and the decrease in bad debt expense. Revenue pressures, coupled with increased headcount in our salesforce partially offset by continued optimization, will continue to cause some pressure on margin in upcoming quarters. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX decreased by $3.1 million to $20.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $23.1 million for the same period last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 is mainly due to lower Adjusted EBITDA partially offset by lower capital expenditures. Net income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 amounted to $29.4 million as compared to net income of $38.7 million for the same period last year. The decrease is mainly attributable to higher recognition of previously unrecognized tax attributes and temporary differences in 2021. Income before taxes increased from $15.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 to $16.7 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, explained principally by lower Adjusted EBITDA being more than offset by decreases in restructuring and other charges, depreciation and amortization and financial charges. Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $29.4 million to $(0.6) million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 from $28.8 million for the same period last year. The decrease is mainly due to increased funding of post-employment benefits plans of $23.5 million, lower Adjusted EBITDA of $3.4 million, and a decrease of $3.0 million from the change in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by income taxes received of $0.1 million, and lower restructuring and other charges paid of $0.6 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities is mainly due to the timing in the collection of trade receivables and the timing of payment of trade payables as well as the impact of the share price on cash settled stock-based compensation. (1) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX, Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other public companies. Refer to the section on Non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this document for more details. Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2022 Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022 decreased by 6.7% to $268.3 million, as compared to $287.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease in revenues is mainly due to the decline of our higher margin digital media and print products and to a lesser extent to our lower margin digital services products, thereby creating pressure on our gross profit margins. For the year ended December 31, 2022 Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased by $5.4 million or 5.3% to $96.6 million, compared to $102.0 million for the same period last year. The adjusted EBITDA margin1 increased during the year ended December 31, 2022 to 36.0%, compared to 35.5% for the same period last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2022, is the result of revenue pressures as well as ongoing investments in our tele-sales force capacity, partially offset by price increases, the efficiencies from optimization in cost of sales, reductions in other operating costs including reductions in our workforce and associated employee expenses, the decrease in bad debt expense and the decrease in cash-settled stock-based compensation expense. For the year ended December 31, 2022 Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX1 decreased by $5.4 million or 5.5% to $91.6 million, compared to $96.9 million for the same period last year. The decrease is driven by the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA. The adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin1 increased during the period ended December 31, 2022 to 34.1% compared to 33.7% for the same period last year. Net income increased to $73.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to net income of $70.6 million, for the same period last year due to higher income before income taxes partially offset by higher income taxes due to lower recognition of previously unrecognized tax attributes and temporary differences. The increase in income before income taxes for the year-ended December 31, 2022 of $16.2 million is explained by lower Adjusted EBITDA, being more than offset by the decrease in financial charges due to lower debt and higher cash balances as well as the decrease in depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges. Furthermore, the year-ended December 31, 2021 was impacted by the loss on the early repayment of debt of $7.8 million. Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $55.1 million to $49.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $104.6 million last year. The decrease is mainly due to income taxes paid of $7.8 million, of which $5.5 million related to the full year 2021 and $2.3 million related to instalments for 2022, increased stock-based compensation cash settlements of $1.6 million, increased funding of post-employment benefit plans of $24.6 million mainly pursuant to the Arrangement, lower Adjusted EBITDA of $5.4 million, and by a decrease of $21.4 million from the change in operating assets and liabilities. The change in operating assets and liabilities is mainly due to the timing in the collection of trade receivables and the timing of payment of trade payables as well as the impact of the share price on cash settled share-based compensation. The first quarter of 2022 also benefited from the cancellation of the forward contracts resulting in a decrease in other receivables of $3.1 million. As at December 31, 2022, the Company had $43.9 million of cash. Plan of Arrangement On August 4, 2022, the Board approved a distribution to shareholders of approximately $100.0 million by way of a share repurchase from all shareholders pursuant to a statutory arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) approved the Arrangement at a special meeting of the Shareholders held on September 23, 2022 and the Company subsequently obtained the final order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving the Arrangement on September 27, 2022. On October 4, 2022, the Company repurchased from shareholders pro rata an aggregate of 7,949,125 common shares (including 388,082 shares held in treasury) at a purchase price of $12.58 per share pursuant to the Arrangement for a total of $101.0 million, including $1.0 million of transaction costs. The $101.0 million cash outlay was reduced by $4.9 million for the cancellation of 388,082 of the Corporation’s 1,298,994 shares held in Treasury for a net cash outlay of $96.1 million. Also pursuant to the Arrangement, the Company advanced $24.0 million to the Pension Plan’s wind-up deficit for the year ended December 31, 2022 (1) Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s consolidated statements of income.

These statements are forwardlooking as they are based on our current expectations, as at February 14, 2023, about our business and the markets we operate in, and on various estimates and assumptions. Our actual results could materially differ from our expectations if known or unknown risks affect our business, or if our estimates or assumptions turn out to be inaccurate. As a result, there is no assurance that any forward-looking statements will materialize. Risks that could cause our results to differ materially from our current expectations are discussed in section 5 of our February 14, 2023 Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

Contacts: Investors Franco Sciannamblo Senior Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer investors@yp.ca Media Treena Cooper Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel communications@yp.ca Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin In order to provide a better understanding of the results, the Company uses the terms Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA is equal to Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined herein as Adjusted EBITDA), as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s consolidated statements of income. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA to revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not performance measures defined under IFRS and are not considered an alternative to income from operations or net income in the context of measuring Yellow Pages performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and are therefore not likely to be comparable to similar measures used by other publicly traded companies. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be used as exclusive measures of cash flow since they do not account for the impact of working capital changes, income taxes, interest payments, pension funding, capital expenditures, debt principal reductions and other sources and uses of cash, which are disclosed on page 19 of our February 14, 2023 MD&A. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to evaluate the performance of its business as it reflects its ongoing profitability. Management believes that certain investors and analysts use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to measure a company’s ability to service debt and to meet other payment obligations or as common measurement to value companies in the media and marketing solutions industry as well as to evaluate the performance of a business. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin The Company also uses Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX, which is defined as Adjusted EBITDA, as defined above, less CAPEX which we define as additions to intangible assets and additions to property and equipment as reported in the Investing Activities section of the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin is defined as the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX to revenues. Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin are non-GAAP financial measures and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly traded companies. We use Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin to evaluate the performance of our business as it reflects cash generated from business activities. We believe that certain investors and analysts use Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX margin to evaluate the performance of businesses in our industry. The most comparable IFRS financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA less Capex is Income from operations before depreciation and amortization and restructuring and other charges (defined above as Adjusted EBITDA) as shown in Yellow Pages Limited’s consolidated statements of income. Refer to pages 8 and 14 of the February 14, 2023 MD&A for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX.
