non-GAAP financial measures, their rationale, and limitations, for a clearer view of operational performance and trends [Overview and Rationale](index=4&type=section&id=Overview%20and%20Rationale) Fortive provides non-GAAP metrics like adjusted net earnings and free cash flow to supplement GAAP, aiding understanding of profitability trends and facilitating comparisons - Non-GAAP financial measures, including **adjusted net earnings**, **adjusted diluted net earnings per share**, **adjusted EBITDA**, **free cash flow**, and **core revenue growth**, aim to provide additional perspectives for investors to understand long-term profitability trends and operational performance[13](index=13&type=chunk)[34](index=34&type=chunk)[35](index=35&type=chunk) - These non-GAAP measures should not be considered substitutes for or superior to GAAP measures, should be read in conjunction with GAAP metrics, and may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies[13](index=13&type=chunk)[35](index=35&type=chunk) [Adjusted Net Earnings, Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin](index=15&type=section&id=Adjusted%20Net%20Earnings,%20Adjusted%20Diluted%20Net%20Earnings%20per%20Share,%20Adjusted%20EBITDA,%20and%20Adjusted%20EBITDA%20Margin) These non-GAAP metrics adjust GAAP net earnings and diluted EPS by excluding non-core items like acquisition amortization, separation expenses, and discrete tax charges, providing a clearer operational performance view - Adjustments include **acquisition-related intangible asset amortization**, **acquisition/divestiture/separation-related items**, **discrete restructuring charges**, **equity investment gains/losses**, **gains/losses on divestitures**, **gains on asset sales**, and **charitable contribution expenses**[37](index=37&type=chunk)[41](index=41&type=chunk)[42](index=42&type=chunk)[43](index=43&type=chunk)[45](index=45&type=chunk)[46](index=46&type=chunk)[48](index=48&type=chunk) - For adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin from continuing operations, **net interest expense**, **depreciation expense**, and **income taxes** are also excluded[37](index=37&type=chunk) - Discrete tax charges from the Ralliant separation are also excluded as they are non-recurring and do not reflect current or future cash tax obligations[49](index=49&type=chunk) [Core Revenue Growth](index=18&type=section&id=Core%20Revenue%20Growth) Core revenue growth is a non-GAAP metric that excludes acquisition/divestiture and currency impacts to measure year-over-year revenue change and identify underlying business trends - Core revenue growth is calculated by excluding the impact of **acquisitions or divestitures** and **foreign currency translation** to identify underlying business growth trends[52](index=52&type=chunk)[53](index=53&type=chunk) - Excluding these items helps assess business trends and facilitate long-term performance comparisons, as they are outside management's control and highly volatile[53](index=53&type=chunk) [Free Cash Flow](index=18&type=section&id=Free%20Cash%20Flow) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP metric, defined as operating cash flow minus capital expenditures, used to assess the company's ability to generate cash and fund operations without external financing - Free cash flow is defined as **net cash provided by GAAP operating activities less capital expenditures**[54](index=54&type=chunk) - This metric helps assess the company's ability to generate cash, fund acquisitions and investments, and repay debt without relying on external financing[55](index=55&type=chunk) - Free cash flow has limitations as a liquidity measure because it excludes certain necessary or committed expenditures, such as debt repayment requirements[55](index=55&type=chunk) [Forward-Looking Statements](index=4&type=section&id=Forward-Looking%20Statements) This section outlines forward-looking statements, highlighting potential risks
