Adj. EBITDA is operating income + D&A + impairment, restructuring, deal costs and stock compensation, less any large gain on a sale, last twelve months, from the target's filings. Calculated by Castle, so it can differ from a bank's adjusted figure.

Prepared with Castle from public SEC EDGAR filings. Figures are extracted automatically; verify against the source documents. Not investment advice.
