Page 26: Neenah IR Presentation March 2015

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow as presented in these slides, are supplemental measures of our performance, and Net Debt, as presented in these slides, is a supplemental measure of our financial position. In each case, these measures are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (‘‘GAAP’’). EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not measurements of our financial performance or financial position under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net sales, net income (loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDA consists of operating income plus depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense. We also exclude acquisition-related costs, gain (loss) on sale of fixed assets, SERP settlement charge and costs related to early retirement of debt, as these amounts are not considered as part of usual business operations. Our management considers EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow to be measurements of performance which provide useful information to both management and investors. Because EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow are not calculated identically by all companies, our measurements of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. All amounts in USD unless otherwise noted.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, as presented herein, are non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC regulations. As required by those regulations, a reconciliation of these measures to what management believes are the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included as an appendix to this presentation.
