(1)EBITDA is defined as income before interest expense and amortization of debt discount costs, interest income, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before share-based compensation, investment gain/loss, litigation costs, acquisition-related costs, change in fair value of puttable warrants issued with debt, change in fair value of puttable common stock, gain on sale of business, and unrealized gain/loss on derivative assets. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered as, alternatives to net income as determined in accordance with GAAP. We have presented EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance. In addition, we use adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance for preparation of our forecasts. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
