FORWARD - LOOKING STATEMENTS


 
Since Columbia Sportswear Company is a global company, the comparability of its operating results reported in U.S. dollars is affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations because the underlying currencies in which it transacts change in value over time compared to the U.S. dollar . To supplement financial information reported in accordance with GAAP, the Company discloses constant - currency net sales information, which is a non - GAAP financial measure, to provide a framework to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of changes in the exchange rates used to translate net sales generated in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars . The Company calculates constant - currency net sales by translating net sales in foreign currencies for the current period into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates that were in effect during the comparable period of the prior year . Management believes that this non - GAAP financial measure reflects an additional and useful way of viewing an aspect of our operations that, when viewed in conjunction with our GAAP results, provides a more comprehensive understanding of our business and operations . Free cash flow is a non - GAAP financial measure . Free cash flow is calculated by reducing net cash flow from operating activities by capital expenditures . Management believes free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for shareholders and acquisitions after making the capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long - term value creation . Free cash flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures . Management uses free cash flow as a measure to assess both business performance and overall liquidity . Non - GAAP financial measures, including constant - currency net sales and free cash flow, should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, our financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP . The Company provides a reconciliation of non - GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP in the back of this presentation in the “Appendix” . The non - GAAP financial measures and constant - currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies .
