Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis:

Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and Non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Pointer uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement.

We calculate adjusted EBITDA by adding back to net income, financial expenses, taxes, depreciation, a non-recurring expense of $0.5 million, attributable to the Company's efforts to expand various services to Israeli insurance companies, and amortization including the effect of non-cash impairment charge related to the fair market value of Cellocator.

We calculate non-GAAP net income by adding back to net income, non-cash equity based compensation, amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and non-cash tax expenses resulting from timing differences relating to the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and goodwill.

The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of our performance exclusive of non-GAAP charges that are considered by management to be outside of our core operating results.

Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income are provided to investors to complement results provided in accordance with GAAP, as management believes the measure helps illustrate underlying operating trends in the Company's business and uses the measure to establish internal budgets and goals, manage the business and evaluate performance. We believe that these non-GAAP measures help investors to understand our current and future operating cash flow and performance, especially as our three most recent acquisitions have resulted in amortization and non-cash items that have had a material impact on our GAAP profits. Adjusted EBITDA and non GAAP net income should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
