TENNANT COMPANY
On the Call Today
Our remarks this morning and our answers to questions may contain forward-looking
statements regarding the company’s expectations of future performance. Such statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties, and our actual results may differ materially from those
contained in the statements. These risks and uncertainties are described in today’s news
release and the documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We
encourage you to review those documents, particularly our Safe Harbor statement, for a
description of the risks and uncertainties that may affect our results.
Additionally, on this conference call we will discuss non-GAAP measures that include or
exclude special or non-recurring items. For each non-GAAP measure, we also provide the
most directly comparable GAAP measure. There were special non-GAAP items in the third
quarter of 2015. Our 2016 third quarter earnings release includes a reconciliation of these
non-GAAP measures to our GAAP results for the third quarter and EPS for 2015 full year.
