Forward guidance

Due to the continuing level of uncertainty related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the inability to predict the trajectory and sustainability of the demand recovery, the Company is not reinstating full-year 2020 core revenue or Adjusted EBITDA guidance at this time. The Company continues to expect total capital expenditures of approximately $70 million and Free Cash Flow Conversion to be greater than 100% of Adjusted Net Income.
