Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 7, 2008, Idearc Inc. (Idearc) issued a press release announcing its
financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2007. A copy of the press
release is furnished as part of this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated
herein by reference.
Non-GAAP Measures
Idearcs press release and financial schedules include financial information prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as
well as non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP financial information includes:
|
|
|
OIBITDA, which is operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization; |
|
|
|
|
OIBITDA margin, which is OIBITDA divided by total operating revenue; |
|
|
|
|
adjusted pro forma consolidated statements of income; |
|
|
|
|
adjusted pro forma OIBITDA; |
|
|
|
|
adjusted pro forma OIBITDA excluding the impact of the change in accounting
principle related to sales commissions; |
|
|
|
|
adjusted pro forma OIBITDA margin; and |
|
|
|
|
adjusted pro forma OIBITDA margin excluding the impact of the change in accounting
principle related to sales commissions. |
OIBITDA is determined by adding depreciation and amortization to operating income. OIBITDA
margin is calculated by dividing OIBITDA by total operating revenue. Management believes that
OIBITDA and OIBITDA margin are useful to investors and other users of our financial information in
evaluating our operating performance. OIBITDA and OIBITDA margin are used internally (i) for
incentive compensation purposes and (ii) to evaluate current operating expense efficiency and
operating profitability on a more variable cost basis by excluding depreciation and amortization
expenses.
The adjusted pro forma consolidated statements of income represent our consolidated statements
of income prepared in accordance with GAAP as modified to (i) eliminate transition costs associated
with our spin-off, (ii) eliminate the costs associated with a one-time stock-based compensation
award granted to most of our employees shortly after the spin-off, and (iii) adjust for special
items in order to present our financial results as if Idearc had been a stand-alone entity at the
beginning of the periods presented and had exited the commercial printing business and entered into
a new printing contract as of January 1, 2006. Descriptions of the eliminations and adjustments
used to prepare our adjusted pro forma consolidated statements of income are provided in the
financial schedules accompanying the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
Management believes the presentations of adjusted pro forma operating performance assist
readers in better understanding our results of operations and trends from period to period,
consistent with managements evaluation of Idearcs consolidated results of operations for a
variety of internal measures including strategic business planning, capital allocation and
incentive compensation. Management believes that the adjusted pro forma consolidated statements of
income are more indicative of future
2
operating results than GAAP results of operations because of the non-operational and/or
non-recurring nature of the items eliminated and the on-going nature of the items included for
purposes of reporting results of operations on an adjusted pro forma basis. As a result of these
factors, management provides this information externally, along with a reconciliation to their
comparable GAAP amounts, so readers have access to the detail and general nature of adjustments
made to GAAP results.
Management believes that adjusted pro forma OIBITDA and adjusted pro forma OIBITDA margin
assist readers in better understanding and evaluating our operating performance for the reasons
described in the immediately preceding paragraph. Management believes that adjusted pro forma
OIBITDA and adjusted pro forma OIBITDA margin excluding the impact of the change in accounting
principle related to sales commissions is useful to investors in understanding the impact of the
accounting change on our current and prior period financial results.
Management provides non-GAAP financial information to enhance the understanding of Idearcs
GAAP consolidated financial statements and readers should consider the information in addition to,
but not instead of, Idearcs financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP
financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies.
