Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 7, 2014, TETRA Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the third quarter of 2014. The press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information furnished in this Item 2.02 and in Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company provides quarterly and annual financial statements that are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” To help understand the Company's past financial performance and future results, the Company has supplemented the financial results that it provides in accordance with GAAP included in the press release with disclosures concerning consolidated revenues excluding the Company's Maritech segment, consolidated gross profit excluding the Company's Maritech segment, consolidated income before taxes excluding the Company's Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, net income per diluted share excluding the Company's Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, adjusted third quarter 2014 income before taxes for the Company’s Compression Division, earnings guidance excluding the Company’s Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, and net debt, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The methods the Company uses to produce these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methods used by other companies. Consolidated revenues excluding the Company's Maritech segment, consolidated gross profit excluding the Company's Maritech segment, consolidated income before taxes excluding the Company's Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, net income per diluted share excluding the Company's Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, adjusted third quarter 2014 income before taxes for the Company’s Compression Division, earnings guidance excluding the Company’s Maritech segment, transaction costs, and unusual items, and net debt, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and the Company's reference to these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results that are prepared under GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for the financial results that are presented as consistent with GAAP. The Company's management uses this supplemental non-GAAP financial information internally to understand, manage and evaluate the company's business, to make operating decisions and for planning and forecasting purposes. Reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measure of each non-GAAP financial measure is included in the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
