Steven G. Mihaylo, Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are very pleased with the results for both the fourth quarter and for the year. Our goal was to be GAAP positive for the year and we performed as expected. Our GAAP profit of eight cents per basic common share for 2019 compared to a loss of two cents per basic common share in 2018 is certainly very impressive. The results did not happen in a vacuum, it was part of a methodical process. This is our second year in a row of Non-GAAP profitability and sales growth. It shows we have been managing and growing the business on a regular basis. I am very pleased with the results of our core business the Cloud Telecommunications Segment UCaaS services. We had a very substantial UCaaS service revenue increase of 25% in 2019 compared to the year ended December 31, 2018. Our cash position has more than doubled with total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash being $4.3 million at the end of 2019 compared to $1.9 million at the end of 2018. I am also pleased with both the increase in our current ratio to 2.0 to 1 and that our shareholders equity increased by 119% in 2019. I would also like to point out that the fourth quarter results included an accrual of $200,000 for bonuses. All and all a very good year. Even with those excellent results no one is resting on their laurels we fully expect to continue to grow this business and increase sales. I am confident our results will continue to impress."
Mihaylo added, "These results have not changed our attitude toward how we manage cash, we are very prudent. We have started to make necessary investments in the business so we can sustain the growth, but we still watch every penny of shareholder money and spend it carefully and strategically. We believe the market for and need for UCaaS services has never been greater, and we further believe we are in a unique position to capitalize on that market. I am convinced that our services, products and technology are the top in the industry. I know customers who use our Ride the Cloud® UCaaS services will be both impressed and, in most instances, save a substantial amount of money from what they currently spend. We will continue to work to grow shareholder value."
Doug Gaylor, President and Chief Operating Officer, stated, "I share Steve's enthusiasm for our future growth. The team will work every day with Steve to continue this momentum. As part of our future growth plans, we will increase our marketing spend and we have just hired a full time dedicated marketing employee who should start with us soon. We believe this will help us to continue to sustain our positive momentum."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles (Non-GAAP) net income/(loss) and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income/(loss) to be an important indicator of overall business performance because it allows us to evaluate results without the effects of share-based compensation and amortization of intangibles. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income/(loss) before interest income, interest expense, other income and expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for share-based compensation. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors' use of operating performance comparisons from period to period, as well as across companies.
In our March 3, 2020 earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we included Non-GAAP net income/(loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms Non-GAAP net income/(loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net income/(loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income/(loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:
- EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
- they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur;
- they do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
- while share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and
- other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income/(loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for management's analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net income/(loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC, we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
