Item 12. Results of Operation and Financial Condition.
On July 28, 2004, Mobile Mini, Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2004. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
The information in this Form 8-K and the exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
The press release includes the financial measure “EBITDA” and certain pro forma financial results. The EBITDA and pro forma financial measures may each be deemed a “non-GAAP financial measure” under rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and debt restructuring expense. We use EBITDA as a financial measure in management decision-making because we believe it provides useful supplemental information regarding our financial and liquidity position and facilitates internal comparisons to historical financial position and operating performance of prior periods and external comparisons to competitors’ financial

position and operating performance. In addition, several of the financial covenants under our revolving credit facility are expressed by reference to this financial measure, similarly computed. The pro forma financial results that we report show our operating results absent litigation costs and related expenses that we incurred during the relevant period in connection with specified Florida litigation matters. In its decision-making, management adjusts results to exclude these litigation costs and expenses, particularly when making operational decisions that involve branch operations and expansion opportunities. We include the EBITDA and the pro forma financial measures in the earnings announcement to provide transparency to investors. A reconciliation of net income to EBITDA follows (in thousands):
