They are also the primary measure of earnings considered by management in operating the business and by Directors in determining dividends taking into account other considerations. Operating cash flow pre interest and tax (OCFPIT) as a measure of cash flow is considered by Directors to be meaningful as it is the cash equivalent of EBITDA and thus provides a measure of the rate at which operating earnings are converted to cash (or ‘cash conversion’).
