Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On September 7, 2017, Barnes & Noble, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a
press release announcing its financial results for the first quarter
ended July 29, 2017 (the “Press Release”). A copy of the Press Release
is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in this Form 8-K and the Exhibit attached hereto
pertaining to the Company’s financial results shall not be deemed
“filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in
any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall
be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), in
the Press Release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, the Company uses the
non-GAAP financial measure of EBITDA (defined by the Company as earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization).
The Company’s management reviews this non-GAAP measure internally to
evaluate the Company’s performance and manage its operations. The
Company believes that the inclusion of EBITDA results provide investors
useful and important information regarding the Company’s operating
results. The non-GAAP measure included in the Press Release attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1 has been reconciled to the comparable GAAP
measure as required under SEC rules regarding the use of non-GAAP
financial measures. The Company urges investors to carefully review the
GAAP financial information included as part of the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and quarterly
earnings releases.
