Adjusted EBITDA as defined above is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It is not intended to be regarded as an alternative to other financial operating performance measures or to the statement of cash flows as a measure of liquidity. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation uses adjusted EBITDA in order to assess the performance of its investment in Quebecor Media. The Corporation’s management and Board of Directors use this measure in evaluating its consolidated results as well as the results of the Corporation’s operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of impairment and depreciation/amortization of tangible and intangible assets and is unaffected by the capital structure or investment activities of the Corporation and its business segments. Adjusted EBITDA is also relevant because it is a significant component of the Corporation’s annual incentive compensation programs. A limitation of this measure, however, is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in the Corporation’s segments. The Corporation also uses other measures that do reflect such costs, such as cash flows from segment operations and free cash flows from continuing operating activities of the Quebecor Media subsidiary. The Corporation’s definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The table below provides a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income as disclosed in Quebecor’s consolidated financial statements. RECONCILIATION OF THE ADJUSTED EBITDA TO THE NET INCOME FINANCIAL YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018, 2017 AND 2016 (in millions of Canadian dollars, except per share data) 2018 2017 2016 Adjusted EBITDA $ 1,732.1 $ 1, 617. 2 $ 1,555.6 Depreciation and amortization (720.2 ) ( 707.9 ) ( 651.1 ) Financial expenses (323.5 ) ( 307.4 ) ( 327.0 ) Loss on valuation and translation of financial instruments (61.3 ) (199.8 ) (70.3 ) Restructuring of operations, litigation and other items (29.8 ) ( 17.2 ) (28.0 ) Gain on sale of spectrum licences – 330.9 – Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets – (43.8) (40.9 ) Loss on debt refinancing – (15.6) (7.3 ) Income taxes (161.9 ) (145.9 ) (134.8 ) Income from discontinued operations 3.8 18.2 0.9 Net income $ 439.2 $ 528.7 $ 297.1 ADJUSTED INCOME FROM CONTINUING OPERATING ACTIVITIES The Corporation defines adjusted income from continuing operating activities, as reconciled to net income attributable to shareholders under IFRS, as net income attributable to shareholders before loss on valuation and translation of financial instruments, restructuring of operations, litigation and other items, gain on sale of spectrum licences, impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, loss on debt refinancing, net of income tax related to adjustments and of net income attributable to non controlling interest related to adjustments, and before income from discontinued operations attributable to shareholders. Adjusted income from continuing operating activities, as defined above, is not a measure of results that is consistent with IFRS. It should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation uses adjusted income from continuing operating activities to analyze trends in the performance of its businesses. The above listed items are excluded from the calculation of this measure because they impair the comparability of financial results. Adjusted income from continuing operating activities is more representative for forecasting income. The Corporation’s definition of adjusted income from continuing operating activities may not be identical to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. 7 MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS In 2018, Quebecor opened a new chapter in its history by INNOVATING TO BETTER buying out the interest in Quebecor Media held by the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec.
