Fred Birner, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated that "We were encouraged by the substantial rebound in Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2014 from the fourth quarter of 2013 and continue to believe the Company is moving in the right direction and making good progress with our previously discussed initiatives and the continued progress of the four de novo offices."

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is not a U.S. generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP") measure of performance or liquidity. However, the Company believes that it may be useful to an investor in evaluating the Company's ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements, and the Company uses Adjusted EBITDA for this purpose. Investors should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income can be made by adding depreciation and amortization expense - Offices, depreciation and amortization expense – Corporate, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, net and income tax expense to net income as in the table below.
