An excerpt from Section $10\mathrm{.}2$ of the Management Discussion and Analysis in the $2020$ annual report of BCE Inc. is shown below. The excerpt shows summarized financial information, including calculations of earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization $($EBITDA$),$ and adjusted net earnings$-$both non$-$GAAP earnings measures. The company provides information on these calculations, which is also shown.

$10\mathrm{.}2$ non$-$GAAP financial measures $...$

This section describes the non$-$GAAP financial measures $...$ we use in this MD$\backslash$&A to explain our financial results. It also provides reconciliations of the non$-$GAAP financial measures to the most comparable IFRS financial measures.

In $2020,$ we updated our definitions of adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and free cash flow to exclude the impacts of discontinued operations as they may affect the comparability of our financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in business performance. As a result of this change, prior periods have been restated for comparative purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin

The terms adjusted EBITDA $...$ do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers... We use adjusted EBITDA $...$ to evaluate the performance of our businesses as they reflect their ongoing profitability. We believe that certain investors and analysts use adjusted EBITDA to measure a company's ability to service debt and to meet other payment obligations or as a common measurement to value companies in the telecommunications industry. We believe that certain investors and analysts also use adjusted EBITDA $...$ to evaluate the performance of our businesses. Adjusted EBITDA is also one component in the determination of short$-$term incentive compensation for all management employees.

Adjusted EBITDA $...$ ha$[$s$]$ no directly comparable IFRS financial measure. Alternatively, the following table provides a reconciliation of net earnings to adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS

The terms adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS. Therefore, they are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.

We define adjusted net earnings as net earnings attributable to common shareholders before severance, acquisition and other costs, net mark$-$to$-$market losses $($gains$)$ on derivates used to economically hedge equity settled share$-$based compensation plans, net losses $($gains$)$ on investments, early debt redemption costs, impairment of assets and discontinued operations, net of tax and NCI. We define adjusted EPS as adjusted net earnings per BCE common share.

We use adjusted net earnings and adjusted EPS, and we believe that certain investors and analysts use these measures, among other ones, to assess the performance of our businesses without the effects of severance, acquisition and other costs, net mark$-$to$-$market losses $($gains$)$ on derivative used to economically hedge equity settled share$-$based compensation plans, net losses $($gains$)$ on investments, early debt redemption costs, impairment of assets and discontinued operations, net of tax and NCI. We exclude these items because they affect the comparability of our financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in business performance. Excluding these items does not imply they are nonrecurring.

The most comparable IFRS financial measures are net earnings attributable to common shareholders and EPS. The following table is a reconciliation of net earnings attributable to common shareholders and EPS to adjusted net earnings on a consolidated basis and per BCE common share $($adjusted EPS$),$ respectively.
