Special Note Regarding Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
This document includes references to non-GAAP measures as defined in National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. "Free cash flow" is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company considers free cash flow a key measure in demonstrating the Company’s ability to generate cash flow to fund future growth through capital investment, to repay debt and to pay returns to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases pursuant to its free cash flow allocation policy. Free cash flow is defined as adjusted funds flow, less capital and dividends.
Non-GAAP and other financial measures are not defined by IFRS and therefore are referred to as non-GAAP and other financial measures. The non-GAAP and other financial measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and should not be considered an alternative to or more meaningful than the most directly comparable financial measure presented in the Company's financial statements, as applicable, as an indication of the Company's performance.
