Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this presentation contains statements relating to the Company's future results (including certain projections, pro forma financial information, and business trends) that are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to the "safe harbor" created by those sections. The statements made in this presentation that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that are predictive in nature and depend upon or refer to future events. Such forward-looking statements often contain, or are prefaced by, words such as "will", "may," "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "projects," "predicts," “pro forma”, "estimates," "aims," "believes," "hopes," "potential," "intends," "suggests," "appears," "seeks," or variations of such words or similar words and expressions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, are based on certain assumptions, and are subject to various known risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, and cannot be predicted or quantified and, consequently, as a result of a number of factors, the Company's actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Certain factors that might cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the negative effects of Pandemics including the Coronavirus, uncertainties regarding economic recovery and changed socioeconomic norms, general business conditions or failure to grow the business internally and through acquisition, the demand for the Company’s services, competitive market pressures, the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified personnel for regular full-time placement and contract assignments, the possibility of incurring liability for the Company’s business activities, including the activities of its contract employees and events affecting its contract employees on client premises, litigation and related settlements, the ability to attract and retain qualified management, changes in the law or regulations, force majeure events, acts of war or terrorism, lack of liquidity, inability to repay loans, meet debt covenants, refinance indebtedness or receive forgiveness on “PPP” loans as well as those risks discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, and such other factors as set forth under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements" in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K, its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). More detailed information about the Company and the risk factors that may affect the realization of forward-looking statements is set forth in the Company's filings with the SEC. Investors and security holders are urged to read these documents free of charge on the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov. The Company is under no obligation to (and expressly disclaims any such obligation to) and does not intend to publicly update, revise or alter its forward- looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company discloses certain financial information, including non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, because management uses these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to help evaluate performance period over period, to analyze the underlying operating trends and results in its business, to establish operational goals, to provide additional measures of operating performance, including using the information for internal planning relating to the Company’s ability to meet debt service, make capital expenditures and provide working capital needs. In addition, the Company believes investors already use these non-GAAP measures to monitor the Company’s performance. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as net income or net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) plus non-cash stock option and stock-based compensation expenses, the change in contingent consideration, acquisition, integration and restructuring costs and loss on extinguishment of debt. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is not a term defined by GAAP and, as a result, the Company’s measure of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flow that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, however, should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to net income or net loss and income or loss from operations as reported under GAAP on the Consolidated Statements of Income, cash and cash flows as reported under GAAP in the Consolidated Balance Sheets or in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, and as reflected in the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP included in GEE Group’s Form 10-Qs and Form 10-Ks filed for the respectivefiscal periods with the SEC. Reconciliation of GAAP net income or GAAP net loss to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA are not included herein. Readers are referred to copies of the Company’s earnings releases for the corresponding periods presented, which may be accessed directly from the Company’s website at https://ir.geegroup.com/press-releases and which contain reconciliations of the Company’s GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.
