Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the federal securities laws that are intended to qualify for the Safe Harbor from liability established by
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. "Forward-looking statements" generally can be identified by the
use of forward-looking terminology such as "project," "will," "expect," "goal," "positioned,"
or "continue" (or the negative or other derivatives of each of these terms) or similar terminology. The "forward-looking
statements" include, without limitation, statements regarding the acquisition's expected impact on earnings per share
and free cash flow per share for fiscal 2015 and the Company's expectations that the acquisition will be immediately accretive
to earnings per share and cash flow, exclusive of transaction, integration and purchase accounting items. These statements are
based on management's estimates and assumptions with respect to future events and financial performance and are believed to be
reasonable, though are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including the impact of foreign exchange, general economic and
business conditions, our ability to successfully integrate the Insight brands into our business, competitive pressures, unexpected
costs, liabilities and disruptions resulting from the integration, or adverse changes in the laws or regulations where Insight
products are sold. A discussion of other factors that could cause results to vary is included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014 and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except
to the extent required by applicable securities laws, we are not under any obligation to (and expressly disclaim any such obligation
to) update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. All statements
contained in this press release are made only as of the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Pro Forma Projected Full Fiscal Year 2015 Financial
Pro forma adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and
is arrived at by taking pro forma net income of $89 million and adding back depreciation and amortization of $31 million, interest
expense of $103 million, taxes of $52 million, and $25 million of transaction, integration and other items to arrive at projected
non-GAAP pro forma adjusted EBITDA of $300 million. This assumes ownership of both the Insight and Hydralyte acquisitions for the
full year. We are presenting this pro forma information as supplemental disclosure because we believe it is a useful tool for investors
to assess the operating performance of the business without the effect of these items.
