Appendix Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Net Earnings, as reported Income Tax Expense Interest Expense Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization EBITDA Stock-based Compensation Adjusted EBITDA Fiscal Year ended March 31, 2026 TTM June 30, 2026 In millions $424 118 46 165 753 21 $774 $403 113 48 165 729 21 $750 We present Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA to provide additional measures of operating performance and allow for more consistent comparison of operating performance from period to period. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that provides supplemental information regarding the operating performance of our business without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact from non-routine items (Non-routine Items) and stock-based compensation, in each case if applicable during the relevant fiscal quarter or fiscal year. Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as alternative bases for comparing the operating performance of Eagle from period to period and for purposes of its budgeting and planning processes. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. The table beside shows the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles them to net earnings in accordance with GAAP for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, and the trailing twelve-month period ended June 30, 2026. Reconciliation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Cash and cash equivalents 298 234 Net Debt $1,483 $1,544 Total debt, excluding debt issuance costs Trailing Twelve Months Adjusted EBITDA Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA As of March 31, 2026 As of June 30, 2026 In millions $1,781 $774 1.9x $1,778 $750 2.1x GAAP does not define "Net Debt" and it should not be considered as an alternative to debt as defined by GAAP. We define Net Debt as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents to indicate the amount of total debt that would remain if the Company applied the cash and cash equivalents held by it to the payment of outstanding debt. The Company also uses "Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA," which it defines as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA, as an alternative metric to assist it in understanding its leverage position. We present this metric for the convenience of the investment community and rating agencies who use such metrics in their analysis, and for investors who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions.
