Fuller, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. The non-GAAP measures reflect the operating segment change. Management has included the non-GAAP information to assist investors in understanding the operating performance of the Company and its operating segments as well as the comparability of results. The non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to the reported results determined in accordance with GAAP, and the non-GAAP measures may not be consistent with the methodologies used by other companies. The non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to the nearest applicable GAAP measures in the tables below. There was no change to the Company’s non-GAAP measures on a consolidated basis for adjusted net income attributable to H.B. Fuller or adjusted EBITDA as a result of the operating segment change.
