WILLSCOT CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2018 RESULTS AND REAFFIRMS 2019 OUTLOOK
BALTIMORE (March 14, 2019) - WillScot Corporation (“WillScot” or the "Company") (Nasdaq: WSC) today announced its fourth quarter and full year 2018 financial results and reaffirmed its 2019 outlook. The fourth quarter results mark the first quarter to include a full three months of contribution from ModSpace operations acquired by WillScot in August 2018.
Fourth Quarter 2018 Financial Highlights1,2
•Revenues of $257.4 million, representing a 113.8% (or $137.0 million) year over year increase, driven by growth in core leasing and services revenues of $124.4 million, or 119.8% primarily as a result of the impact of the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions and organic growth. Pro forma revenues3 increased 2.8% to $257.4 million driven by a 17.9% increase in core modular leasing revenues as a result of rate improvements, offset by lower modular delivery and installation, new unit, and rental unit sales volumes.
•Consolidated modular space average monthly rental rate increased to $562 representing a 1.1% increase year over year. Pro forma monthly rental rates4 increased 11.3% year over year, driven primarily by a 12.6% year-over-year increase in our core Modular - US Segment.
•Consolidated modular space units on rent increased 52,423 or 121.6% year over year, driven by recent acquisitions, and average modular space utilization increased 110 basis points (“bps”) year over year to 73.0%. Pro forma utilization4 increased 290 bps year over year in the Modular - US segment and 250 bps on a consolidated basis.
•Consolidated net loss of $10.4 million improved by $115.0 million versus prior year and included $28.7 million of discrete costs expensed in the period related to transaction costs, restructuring costs and integration activities. The $28.7 million of discrete costs included $8.3 million of restructuring costs and $20.4 million of transaction and integration costs.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $73.5 million from our Modular - US and Modular - Other North America segments (the “Modular Segments”), represents a 103.6% (or $37.4 million) year over year increase as compared to the same period in 2017.
2018 Full Year Financial Highlights1,2
•Revenues of $751.4 million, representing a 68.5% (or $305.5 million) year over year increase, driven by growth in core leasing and services revenues of $285.1 million, or 73.5% primarily as a result of the impact of the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions and organic growth. On a pro forma basis, total revenues increased $80.7 million, or 8.2%, to $1,064.0 million driven by a 16.0% increase in core modular leasing revenues.
•Consolidated modular space average monthly rental rate increased to $552 representing a 2.6% increase year over year. Pro forma monthly rental rates4 increased 10.7% year over year, driven primarily by an 11.9% year-over-year increase in our core Modular - US segment
•Consolidated modular space units on rent increased 28,994 or 70.3% year over year, including both organic growth and growth from recent acquisitions, and average modular space utilization increased 130 bps year over year to 71.6%. Pro forma average modular space units on rent4 increased 0.5% year over year in the Modular - US segment, and declined 1.7% in the Modular - Other North America segment. Pro forma utilization4 increased 230 bps year over year in the Modular - US segment and 200 bps on a consolidated basis.
•Consolidated net loss of $53.6 million improved by $96.2 million versus prior year and included $86.1 million of discrete costs expensed in the period related to transaction costs, bridge financing costs, restructuring costs and integration activities, as the Company substantially advanced restructuring and integration efforts related to its acquisitions and recapitalized its balance sheet. The $86.1 million of discrete costs included $15.5 million of restructuring costs, $30.0 million of integration costs, $20.5 million of interest expense representing bridge financing and upfront commitment fees, and $20.1 million of transaction costs.
•Adjusted EBITDA of $215.5 million from our Modular Segments, representing a 73.9% (or $91.6 million) year over year increase as compared to the same period in 2017. This represents the midpoint of management's 2018 outlook, which was increased on October 1, 2019 to incorporate ModSpace's expected results.
•On a pro forma basis, Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 for the Modular Segments totaled $284.5 million, up $31.5 million, or 12.5% organically from $253.0 million in 2017. These pro forma results do not include over $60.0 million of incremental cost savings that management expects to realize from the ModSpace and Acton acquisitions, as well as incremental revenue growth from increased penetration of ‘Ready to Work’ solutions across the combined portfolio. Consolidated pro forma Adjusted EBITDA of $284.5 million was up $46.7 million, or 19.6% over 2017.

1 - WillScot (formerly known as Double Eagle Acquisition Corp.) acquired Williams Scotsman International, Inc. (“WSII”) on November 29, 2017 (the "Business Combination"). The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse acquisition of Double Eagle Acquisition Corp. by WSII. Prior to completing the Business Combination, WSII’s parent company (the "Algeco Group") undertook an internal restructuring in which WSII’s remote accommodations business was removed from WSII. Financial results from WSII’s former remote accommodations business are presented as discontinued operations in the financial statements. As a result of the Business Combination, (i) Williams Scotsman’s consolidated financial results for periods prior to November 29, 2017, reflect the financial results of WSII and its consolidated subsidiaries, as the accounting predecessor to Williams Scotsman, and (ii) for periods from and after this date, Williams Scotsman’s financial results reflect those of Williams Scotsman and its consolidated subsidiaries (including WSII and its subsidiaries) as the successor following the Business Combination.
2 - Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, as well as segment-level results to net loss, have been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. An explanation of these non-GAAP financial measures is included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Please see the non-GAAP reconciliation tables included at the end of this press release.
3 - The pro forma financial information contained in this press release includes the results of WillScot, Acton, and ModSpace for all periods presented. The Acton and ModSpace acquisitions closed December 20, 2017 and August 15, 2018, respectively.
4 - The pro forma performance metrics contained in this press release (including average units on rent, average monthly rental rate, and utilization), include the results of WillScot and all previous acquisitions for all periods presented, including the Acton, ModSpace, and Tyson acquisitions. The Tyson acquisitions closed on January 3, 2018.
5 - Included in Corporate & other are selling, general and administrative expenses related to the Algeco Group's corporate costs incurred prior to or as part of the Business Combination which are not anticipated to be part of the ongoing costs of WillScot.

Integration Update
In August 2018, we acquired ModSpace, the largest privately held provider of office trailers, portable storage units and modular buildings in the US and Canada, for a total purchase price of $1.2 billion.
We have since made significant progress integrating ModSpace's operations into the WillScot organizational structure, branch footprint, shared services, and information technology platform. In particular,
•effective November 1, 2018, our combined sales organization began to write new contracts using WillScot's pricing and information technology platforms and value-added products and services ("VAPS") offering;
•effective November 5, 2018, we consolidated more than 200 locations in the US and Canada historically serving WillScot, Tyson, Acton and ModSpace into approximately 120 locations; and
•effective January 7, 2019, we completed the remaining IT system cut over and began billing all units on rent out of the WillScot platform, and we completed the final runoff of ModSpace accounts receivable and payable in March.
We will continue to consolidate and liquidate real estate positions and relocate fleet acquired in the Acton and ModSpace acquisitions consistent with our integration plan. As of March 14, 2019, 9 owned real estate locations to be exited had been listed for sale (representing $15 million of net book value), 10 locations have been identified to be exited and sold (representing $14 million of net book value), and 43 owned real restate locations (representing $58 million of net book value) will be retained and financing alternatives evaluated.
Management Commentary2,6
Brad Soultz, President and Chief Executive Officer of WillScot commented, "Over a year ago, we committed to doubling the company through both organic growth and acquisitions without overpaying or over-leveraging. I am pleased to report that we have delivered on that commitment. Our fourth quarter results represent the first time that our financial results include the three acquisitions we have completed since returning to the public markets. Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter were up 113.8% and 103.6%, respectively, over the prior year.
Our execution of the Acton and ModSpace commercial, operational, and systems integrations, on budget and earlier than scheduled, have enabled us to begin to realize $70 million of annualized forecasted cost synergies. Synergy realization, coupled with our revenue trajectory exiting 2018 (including our early progress on rate optimization and improving VAPS penetration), provides us with a high degree of confidence in achieving our 2019 Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $345-$365 million. We expect 80% of these cost synergies to be delivered and represented in our annual run rate by the fourth quarter of 2019, with 90% of the associated integration expenses incurred in the first half of this year. These levers, which are all largely in management's control, support an annualized Adjusted EBITDA run rate of $400 million, 35% Adjusted EBITDA margins, and substantial discretionary free cash flow as we exit 2019."
Tim Boswell, Chief Financial Officer commented, "A key strength of our operating platform is the predictability of our lease revenue streams, which results from our 30 month average lease durations. Our fourth quarter results met our high expectations financially and exceeded those expectations operationally, given our progress with the integrations. Our core commercial drivers remain strong with pro forma modular space average rental rates4 in our Modular - US Segment up 12.6% year over year, which is now the fifth quarter in a row with growth exceeding 10% driven by both continued improvement in base rental rates and expansion of our Ready to Work value proposition. Continuation of this commercial trend and the realization of cost synergies are the simple foundation that supports our 2019 Adjusted EBITDA Outlook of $345 to $365 million in 2019."
Fourth Quarter 2018 Results
Total consolidated revenues increased 113.8% to $257.4 million, as compared to $120.4 million in the prior year quarter. Pro forma revenues increased 2.8% to $257.4 million.
•Modular - US segment revenue increased 125.0% to $233.1 million, as compared to $103.6 million in the prior year quarter with core leasing and services revenues up $115.1 million, or 124.7% year over year.
•Modular space average monthly rental rate of $563, representing a 0.5% year over year increase. Organic increases on unit pricing and VAPS pricing and penetration on the WillScot legacy fleet were partially offset by lower rates on units acquired from Acton and Tyson and to a lesser extent, ModSpace, and by lower VAPS pricing and penetration on all acquired fleet. Pro forma monthly rental rates4 increased 12.6% year over year.
•Average modular space units on rent increased 48,642, or a 128.9% year over year increase, primarily resulting from our acquisitions. Pro forma units on rent4 decreased 1.0% year over year, and pro forma utilization4 tightened by 290 basis points year over year, as the Company executed major integration and fleet rebalancing activities across the branch network.
6 - Information reconciling forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures is unavailable to the Company without unreasonable effort and therefore no reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures is provided.
3
•Modular - Other North America segment revenue increased 43.8% to $24.3 million, compared to $16.9 million in the prior year quarter, with modular space average units on rent up 70.0% and average monthly rental rate up 3.6% compared to the prior year quarter.
•On a pro forma basis, Modular - Other North America segment modular space units on rent4 decreased 2.1% as a result of a scheduled oil & gas sector project completion in ModSpace's Western Canada operations prior to the acquisition date, however modular space units on rent have been stable since the first quarter of 2018. Pro forma modular space rental rate4 decreased 1.6% compared to the prior year quarter.
•The Modular Segments delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $73.5 million, up 103.6% compared to $36.1 million in the prior year quarter. And Adjusted EBITDA margins declined 140 bps year over year to 28.6%, as a result of the first full quarterly contribution from ModSpace at an approximately 24% contribution margin, prior to realization of the estimated $60.0 million of annual reoccurring cost synergies.
•Modular - US segment Adjusted EBITDA increased 112.7% to $67.2 million, and Modular - Other North America segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.8 million to $6.3 million from the prior year quarter. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA increased 135.6% to $73.5 million, as compared to $31.2 million in the prior year quarter.
Full Year 2018 Results
Total consolidated revenues increased 68.5% to $751.4 million, as compared to $445.9 million in the prior year. On a Pro forma basis total revenues increased $80.7 million, or 8.2%, to $1,064.0 million
•Modular - US segment revenue increased 72.5% to $677.6 million, as compared to $392.9 million in the prior year with core leasing and services revenues up $262.2 million, or 75.9% year over year.
•Modular space average monthly rental rate of $551, representing a 2.4% year over year increase. Organic increases on unit pricing and VAPS pricing and penetration on the WillScot legacy fleet were partially offset by lower rates on units acquired from Acton and Tyson and to a lesser extent, ModSpace, and by lower VAPS pricing and penetration on all acquired fleet. Pro forma monthly rental rates4 increased 11.9% year over year.
•Average modular space units on rent increased 27,170, or a 75.1% year over year increase, primarily resulting from our acquisitions. Pro forma units on rent4 increased 0.5% year over year.
•Average modular space monthly utilization decreased 20 bps to 73.7%. This decrease was driven by lower utilization on the acquired Acton fleet as compared to the overall average. Pro forma utilization4 increased 230 bps year over year.
•Modular - Other North America segment revenue increased 37.4% to $73.8 million, compared to $53.7 million in the prior year, with modular space average units on rent up 35.8% and average monthly rental rate up 5.1% compared to the prior year.
•On a pro forma basis, Modular - Other North America segment modular space units on rent4 decreased 1.7% as a result of a scheduled oil & gas project completion in ModSpace's Western Canada operations prior to the acquisition date. Modular space units on rent have been stable since the first quarter of 2018, however, and pro forma modular space rental rate4 increased 0.2% compared to the prior year.
•The Modular Segments delivered Adjusted EBITDA of $215.5 million, up 73.9% compared to $123.9 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margins expanded by 100 bps to 28.7%, due to the organic increases in pricing and value-added products revenue, as well as the realization of cost synergies from the Acton acquisition, partly offset by the lower contribution margin from acquired ModSpace revenues in the last four and one half months of 2018.
•Modular - US segment Adjusted EBITDA increased 77.3% to $196.4 million, and Modular - Other North America segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.0 million to $19.1 million from the prior year. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA increased 98.1% to $215.5 million, as compared to $108.8 million in the prior year.
•On a pro forma basis, Adjusted EBITDA in 2018 for the Modular Segments totaled $284.5 million, up $31.5 million, or up 12.5% organically from $253.0 million in 2017. Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA margins for the Modular Segments increased by 100 bps to 26.7%, due to organic increases in pricing and values-added products, as well as the realization of Acton-related cost synergies, but prior to the realization of an estimated $60.0 million of ModSpace-related cost synergies.
•Pro forma Modular - US segment Adjusted EBITDA increased $38.3 million, or 17.1% to $262.5 million from $224.2 million and pro forma Modular - Other North America segment Adjusted EBITDA decreased $6.8 million to $22.0 million from $28.8 million in the prior year.

Capitalization and Liquidity Update
Capital expenditures from continuing operations increased $23.0 million, or 82.4%, to $50.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, from $27.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017. Net capital expenditures also increased $23.1 million, or 124.3%, to $41.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018. For the year ended December 31, 2018, total capital expenditures from continuing operations increased $59.2 million, or 55.7% to $165.5 million from $106.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Net capital expenditures for rental equipment increased $56.0 million to $130.1 million, and total net capital expenditures increased $55.0 million, or 69.0% to $134.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increases for both periods were driven by increased spend for refurbishments to improve utilization, as well as value-added products and services to increase revenue, across the combined fleet following our Acton, Tyson, and ModSpace acquisitions, which in the fourth quarter was more than double the size of the fleet supported by our 2017 capital investments.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, our total long-term debt balance increased by $1,049.7 million to $1,674.5 million primarily to fund cash consideration for the ModSpace acquisition in the third quarter.
As of December 31, 2018, we had $532.6 million of availability under the ABL Facility.
On November 6, 2018, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction with a financial counterparty that effectively converts $400.0 million in aggregate notional amount of its variable-rate debt into fixed-rate debt. The Company pays a fixed rate of 3.06% and receives a variable rate monthly equal to one-month LIBOR rate. The swap transaction, which matures on May 29, 2022 along with our ABL Facility, was consummated to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in our floating-rate ABL Facility.
Warrant Exchange
In December 2018, we completed a tender offer whereby 45,131,827 of our 2015 warrants were exchanged for 8,205,841 new shares of WillScot Class A common stock. Based on the economics of the exchange, we recognized a $2.1 million non-cash deemed dividend in our fourth quarter financial results.
Reaffirmation of 2019 Outlook
Management reaffirmed the Company's outlook for the full year 2019, which we announced previously on January 9, 2019. This guidance is subject to the risks and uncertainties described in the "Forward-Looking Statements" below, and the 2019 guidance includes:
• Total revenue between $1.05 billion and $1.15 billion
• Adjusted EBITDA between $345 million and $365 million6
• Net capital expenditures (after gross rental unit sales) between $130 million and $160 million7
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, pro forma revenue, pro forma Adjusted EBITDA, net capital expenditures, and net rental capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before income tax expense, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization adjusted for non-cash items considered non-core to business operations including net currency losses, change in fair value of contingent considerations, goodwill and other impairment charges, restructuring costs and other non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Net capital expenditures is defined as capital expenditures for purchases and capitalized refurbishments of rental equipment, plus purchases of property, plant and equipment, reduced by proceeds from the sale of rental equipment. Net rental capital expenditures is defined as capital expenditures for purchases and capitalized refurbishments of rental equipment, reduced by proceeds from the sale of rental equipment. Pro forma revenue and pro forma Adjusted EBITDA are defined the same as revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, but include pre-acquisition results from Acton and ModSpace for all periods presented. WillScot believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are useful to investors because they (i) allow investors to compare performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis by removing from operating results the impact of items that do not reflect core operating performance; (ii) are used by our board of directors and management to assess our performance; (iii) may, subject to the limitations described below, enable investors to compare the performance of WillScot to its competitors; and (iv) provide additional tools for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. WillScot believes that pro forma revenue and pro forma Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors because they allow investors to compare performance of the combined company over various reporting periods on a consistent basis WillScot believes that net capital expenditures and net rental capital expenditures provide useful additional information concerning cash flow available to meet future debt service obligations. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of operating performance or liquidity. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial

measures differently, and therefore WillScot’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. For reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures used in this press release (except as explained below), see “Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures" included in this press release.
Information reconciling forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures is unavailable to WillScot without unreasonable effort. We cannot provide reconciliations of forward looking Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP financial measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as the provision for income taxes. Preparation of such reconciliations would require a forward-looking balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flow, prepared in accordance with GAAP, and such forward-looking financial statements are unavailable to WillScot without unreasonable effort. Although we provide a range of Adjusted EBITDA that we believe will be achieved, we cannot accurately predict all the components of the Adjusted EBITDA calculation. WillScot provides Adjusted EBITDA guidance because we believe that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP, provides useful information for the reasons noted above.

The words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “forecasts,” “plans,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “shall” and variations of these words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature.

Although WillScot believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that any such forward-looking statement will materialize. Important factors that may affect actual results or outcomes include, among others, our ability to acquire and integrate new assets and operations (including the acquired ModSpace assets and operations); our ability to achieve planned synergies related to acquisitions; our ability to manage growth and execute our business plan; our estimates of the size of the markets for our products; the rate and degree of market acceptance of our products; the success of other competing modular space and portable storage solutions that exist or may become available; rising costs adversely affecting our profitability; potential litigation involving our Company; general economic and market conditions impacting demand for our products and services; implementation of tax reform; our ability to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls; and such other risks and uncertainties described in the periodic reports we file with the SEC from time to time (including our Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2017), which are available through the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov and on our website. Any forward-looking statement speaks only at the date which it is made, and WillScot disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following presents definitions and reconciliations to the nearest comparable GAAP measure of certain WillScot and its operating segments’ non-GAAP financial measures used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization. Our adjusted EBITDA reflects the following further adjustments to EBITDA to exclude certain non-cash items and the effect of what we consider transactions or events not related to our core business operations:
•Currency (gains) losses, net: on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies other than the subsidiaries’ functional currency. Substantially all such currency gains (losses) are unrealized and attributable to financings due to and from affiliated companies.
•Goodwill and other impairment charges related to non-cash costs associated with impairment charges to goodwill, other intangibles, rental fleet and property, plant and equipment.
•Restructuring costs associated with restructuring plans designed to streamline operations and reduce costs including employee and lease termination costs.
•Transaction costs including legal and professional fees and other transaction specific related costs.
•Costs to integrate acquired companies, including outside professional fees, fleet relocation expenses, employee training costs, and other costs.
•Non-cash charges for stock compensation plans.
•Other expense includes consulting expenses related to certain one-time projects, financing costs not classified as interest expense, and gains and losses on disposals of property, plant, and equipment.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider the measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), cash flow from operations or other methods of analyzing WillScot’s results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for our working capital needs;
•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness;
•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect historical cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact on earnings or changes resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our future operations;
•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
•other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
14
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to reinvest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to meet our obligations. The following tables provide an unaudited reconciliation of Net loss to Adjusted EBITDA:

Net CAPEX and Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX
We define net capital expenditures ("Net CAPEX") as purchases of rental equipment and refurbishments and purchases of property, plant and equipment (collectively "total capital expenditures"), less proceeds from sale of rental equipment. Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less the gross profit on sale of rental units, less Net Capital Expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our measurement of Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Our management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA less Net CAPEX provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it assists in analyzing the performance of our business.
