Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Words such as targeted and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Statements about the companys business, including its strategy, its industry, the companys future profitability, the companys guidance on its sales, EBITDA, growth in the companys various markets and the companys expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects and assumptions are not guarantees of future performance. These statements are based on managements expectations that involve a number of business risks and uncertainties, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, including the factors described in the companys SEC filings that may cause our actual results and performance to be materially different from any future results or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. For a discussion of key risk factors, please see the risk factors disclosed in the companys SEC filings, which are available on the SECs website at www.sec.gov and on the companys website, www.mrcglobal.com. Our filings and other important information are also available on the Investor Relations page of our website at www.mrcglobal.com. Undue reliance should not be placed on the companys forward-looking statements. Although forward-looking statements reflect the companys good faith beliefs, reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the companys actual results, performance or achievements or future events to differ materially from anticipated future results, performance or achievements or future events expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. 1 Non-GAAP Disclaimer In this presentation, the company is providing information on the financial measure EBITDA which is not a measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and should not be considered as an alternative. Net Income is the closest GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP financial measure EBITDA. The financial measure EBITDA should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, analysis of our results reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors a view to measures similar to those used in evaluating our compliance with certain financial covenants under our credit facilities and provides meaningful comparisons between current and prior year period results. This measure is also used as a metric to determine certain components of performance-based compensation. This non-GAAP financial measure is not necessarily indicative of future results of operations that may be obtained by the company.
