Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and restructuring or rent costs (EBITDAR) is a non-GAAP metric that can be used to evaluate a company's financial Performance.
Depending on the company and the goal of the user, the indicator can include either restructuring costs or rent costs, but usually not both. The EBITDAR indicator expands on EBITDA by adding an additional excluded item to give a better indication of the company's financial performance.
EBITDAR, when evaluating the impact of rent expense is often used by retail businesses and airlines. Typically, in such an analysis the rent expense will be capitalized and added to the net debt of the company in order to better understand the leverage levels in the company's capital structure.
