NON-IFRS MEASURES This Presentation makes reference to certain financial and other measures commonly used by financial analysts in evaluating the financial performance of companies and by the Company’s management in evaluating its operations, including companies in the gaming industry that are not presented in accordance with international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”). These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures including "Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA Margin", "Adjusted Property EBITDA", "Adjusted Property EBITDA Margin", "EBITDA", "Free Cash Flow", "Free Cash Flow Conversion", and "Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA“ and these measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), earnings per share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or as measures of liquidity. For further details on these non-IFRS measures including relevant definitions and reconciliations, see the “Financial Overview” section of this Presentation. As of September 30, 2019, Starlight Casino Edmonton and Grand Villa Casino Edmonton are considered discontinued operations in Gateway’s consolidated financial statements. These properties are referred to in this presentation as “Non-Core Properties.” Where indicated in this presentation, financial information of Gateway excludes the Non-Core Properties. COMPARABLE COMPANIES Certain information presented herein compares the Company to other issuers and such data sets are considered to be "comparables". The information is a summary of certain relevant operational attributes of certain gaming issuers and has been included to provide interested parties an overview of the performance of what are expected to be comparable issuers. These issuers are in the same industry, provide similar services and operate in similar regulatory environments and each should be considered an appropriate basis for comparison to the Company. The information regarding the comparables was obtained from public sources, has not been verified by LACQ, the Company, or any of their respective affiliates and if such information contains a misrepresentation, interested parties do not have a remedy under securities legislation in any province or territory of Canada. There are risks associated with comparables, including the integrity of the underlying information and the ability to isolate specific variables which may impact one issuer and not another. There are risks associated with making investment decisions based on comparables including whether data presented provides a complete comparison between issuers. Interested parties are cautioned that past performance is not indicative of future performance and the performance of the Company may be materially different from the comparable issuers. Accordingly, an investment decision should not be made in reliance on the comparables.
