Management uses EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to measure Lincolnway's financial performance and to internally manage its business. Management believes that EBITDA provides useful information to investors as a measure of comparison with peer and other companies. EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or cash flow as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA calculations may vary from company to company. Accordingly, our computation of EBITDA may not be comparable with a similarly-titled measure of another company.  The following sets forth the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA for the periods indicated:
