Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On July 29, 2013, we issued a press release announcing our financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013. A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1

The press release includes certain non-GAAP financial information. The reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial information to GAAP financial measures is included in the press release. Non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to the comparable GAAP financial measures or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. We present the non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they are an important measure of our operating performance and provide more comparability between our historical results by taking into account our capital structure, including (i) changes in our asset base (depreciation and amortization) from acquisitions and from capital expenditures, and (ii) changes in interest expense and amortization of financing costs. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

The information disclosed under this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
