To properly and prudently evaluate our business, we encourage you to review our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the reconciliation to Adjusted EBITDA and Same Day EBITDA from net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, set forth in the following table.
Removed
The statement of operations data for the fiscal years ended 2019 and 2018 and the balance sheet data as of December 27, 2020, December 29, 2019, and December 31, 2018 set forth below were derived from our audited financial statements not included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Added
In addition, the financial covenants in our credit agreement are based on EBITDA as defined in the credit agreement. (2) The 2023 working capital amount includes the movement of the balances from long-term to current liabilities related to the amended credit agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”), which had a maturity date of July 16, 2024.
Added
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the periods indicated as a measure of our performance. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. We define “Same Day EBITDA” as Adjusted EBITDA on a fifty-two week fiscal year basis.
Added
Omitting the additional revenue days in a fifty-three week fiscal year ended provides a financial measure that facilitates comparisons of our results of operations with those of our fifty-two week fiscal year and comparisons of our results with those companies having same number of days.
Added
Adjusted EBITDA and Same Day EBITDA are not measures of liquidity under GAAP or otherwise, and are not alternatives to cash flow from continuing operating activities.
Added
The limitations of Adjusted EBITDA and Same Day EBITDA include: (i) they do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) they do not reflect changes in, or 27 cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (iii) they do not reflect income tax payments we may be required to make; and (iv) they do not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments associated with indebtedness.
Added
(3) We capitalizes direct costs incurred in cloud computing implementation costs from hosting arrangements, which are reported as a Software as a service and are expensed as incurred in selling, general and administrative expenses. 28

Same Day Gross Profit and GAAP gross profit were equal for Fiscal 2023. 34 Liquidity and Capital Resources Our working capital requirements are primarily driven by field talent payments, tax payments, and client partner accounts receivable receipts.
These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the IT division of approximately $11.6 million in revenue and a decrease of 0.2% in average bill rate. Gross Profit: Gross profit represents revenues from workforce solutions less cost of services expenses, which consist of payroll, payroll taxes, payroll-related insurance, field talent costs, and reimbursable costs.
Horn Solutions and the existing professional business declined $4.1 million (2.3%), primarily due to fewer hours billed and lower permanent placement revenue.
