Adjusted vs. Reported Financial Results
The financial results in this presentation are presented on an "Adjusted" basis, and differ to some extent from the "Reported" financials contained in
the formal financial statements of the Company.
ADAMA's approach on the use of adjustments:
Adjusted results:
Exclude items that are of a one-time or non-cash/non-operational nature that do not impact the ongoing performance of the business
Reflect the way the Company's management and the Board of Directors view the performance of the Company internally
The Company believes that excluding the effects of these items from its operating results allows management and investors to
