EBITDA Reconciliation
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Graham believes that when used in conjunction
with GAAP measures, EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure, assists in the understanding of Graham’s operating performance.
* Data from FY1993 though FY2005 excludes discontinued operations and is unaudited; 1997 was a three-month
transition year and is excluded from this comparison; 1996 reflects a 12-month period.

VITAL PROCESSING COMPONENTS CONDENSERS AND EJECTORS
An ejector system lowers the
pressure in the distillation column to
allow crude oil to boil at a lower
temperature. This allows for more
efficient and cost-effective
separation of crude oil into valuable
products, such as diesel, gas oils,
kerosene, and other fuels.
A condenser supports
a steam turbine and
enables the conversion
of maximum energy in
high pressure steam into
power.
