Reconciliation of GAAP-Basis Operating Results
to Non-GAAP Operating Results
(Unaudited and in thousands, except per share
amounts)
Adjusted Operating Income and Earnings Per
Share
In the accompanying press release, the Company
makes reference to its second quarter fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 adjusted operating income and earnings per share. In regard to fiscal
2023, this reconciliation excludes the non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from the gains on the sale and leaseback transactions
and expenses related to the proxy contest and settlement in connection with the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders and
the related tax impacts. In regard to fiscal 2024, this reconciliation excludes the non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from
the gains on the sale and leaseback transactions, expenses related to the Company’s CEO transition, expenses associated with a
strategic transformation initiative, a corporate restructuring charge, and an employee benefits policy change and the related tax impacts.
The Company believes excluding these items from its financial results provides investors with an enhanced understanding of the Company's
financial results and enhances comparability across periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for operating income or earnings per share information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of GAAP-Basis Operating Results

(Unaudited and in thousands)
EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA
In the accompanying press release, the Company
makes reference to its second quarter fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines EBITDA as net income
excluding depreciation and amortization, non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from the gains on sale and leaseback transactions,
interest expense and tax expense. In regard to fiscal 2023, the Company further adjusts EBITDA to exclude expenses related to the proxy
contest and settlement in connection with the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders and the related tax impacts. In regard
to fiscal 2024, the Company further adjusts EBITDA to exclude expenses related to the Company’s CEO transition, expenses associated
with a strategic transformation initiative, a corporate restructuring charge, and an employee benefits policy change and the related
tax impacts. The Company believes that presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provides investors with an enhanced understanding of
the Company's operating performance and debt leverage metrics and enhances comparability with the Company’s historical results,
and that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure, when combined with the primary presentation of net income, is beneficial
to an investor’s complete understanding of the Company’s operating performance. This information is not intended to be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with GAAP.
