Quotes:
- Eric Affeldt, president and chief executive officer: "We delivered another year of record revenues and adjusted EBITDA and are positioned for excellent results again in 2016. The fundamentals of our business remain intact and continue to support our growth and investment strategies, which have driven five consecutive years of solid growth in both revenue and adjusted EBITDA, with our investments in reinventions and acquisitions delivering positive NPV returns in 2015. Our Board and management remain dedicated to a balanced approach of capital allocation aligned with the Company's growth strategy and focused on building long-term shareholder value. This approach is reflected in our plans to continue investing in our business. To that end, our Board has authorized, for the first time, a share repurchase program of up to $50 million of our stock over the next two years."
- Curt McClellan, chief financial officer: "Our strong results not only speak to the stability of our membership model, but also the strength and steadiness of our cash flows. Since 2010, we've grown revenues by 53% and adjusted EBITDA by 56% and, in 2015, we delivered full-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth that was north of 19%, despite a 100-year rain event in Texas. During 2015, we acquired nine new clubs, signed two management contracts, and completed reinventions at 21 clubs, and we saw adoption of our O.N.E. offering increase to 50% and private events revenue reach an all-time record. We are pleased that the strength and stability of our cash flow is allowing us to support our growth strategies as well as the repurchase program and our current dividend of $0.52 a share, which represents an almost 5% dividend yield at today's stock price."

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes, interest and investment income, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus or minus impairments, gain or loss on disposition and acquisition of assets, losses from discontinued operations, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash and other adjustments, equity-based compensation expense and an acquisition adjustment. The acquisition adjustment to revenues and Adjusted EBITDA within each segment represents estimated deferred revenue using current membership life estimates related to initiation payments that would have been recognized in the applicable period but for the application of purchase accounting. Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definition of Consolidated EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement governing the Secured Credit Facilities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
In addition to Adjusted EBITDA, we are providing a Levered Free Cash Flow (FCF) metric as an additional non-GAAP measure. We believe a FCF metric aids investors in their evaluation of the Company's ability to generate cash, and determine the amount of capital available for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to discretionary growth CAPEX (e.g., reinventions or acquisitions), or cash dividends.
This earnings release and accompanying financial tables include supplemental non-GAAP financial measures titled Adjusted EBITDA and Levered Free Cash Flow. Adjusted EBITDA and Levered Free Cash Flow are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, more meaningful than or as a substitute for a measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and are not indicative of net income or loss as determined under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations that should be considered before used as measures to evaluate the Company's financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Levered Free Cash Flow, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to varying methods of calculation.
The financial statement tables that accompany this press release include a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable and most comparable GAAP financial measure. The Company has not reconciled Adjusted EBITDA guidance included in this press release to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort.
Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this press release contains statements relating to future results (including certain projections and business trends) that are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are subject to the "safe harbor" created by those sections.
