He further noted, “We are diligently implementing our focused strategic plan and customer centric philosophy which enables our management team to navigate the challenging business environment. Our objective is to deliver attractive risk adjusted rates of return on the capital we employ. We expect an enhanced level of capital expenditures in the coming years to support our efforts in foodservice, information technology, expansion of our territory, and the addition of retail health food stores.”

In addition, we have expanded our produce offerings and have made a meaningful investment in reimaging our brand and social media in this market,” said Clifford Ginn, President of AMCON’s Retail Health Food Segment. “We will continue to invest in new stores, store remodeling, and marketing as we seek to address the competitive challenges we face in the industry.”
“We are very focused on increasing our shareholders’ equity per share, maintaining high levels of balance sheet liquidity and generating free cash flow.

GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial measure of adjusted book value per share included in this press release (“adjusted book value per share”) has been determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measurement reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s business that, when viewed together with its financial results computed in accordance with GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors affecting historical financial performance of the Company. This measure is important to investors interested in determining the amount of book value per share if all potentially dilutive shares were exercised or vested and outstanding. This non-GAAP financial measurement is not intended to be a substitute for the comparable GAAP measurements and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The Company has defined the non-GAAP financial measure of adjusted book value per share as follows:
September 2016
Number of common shares outstanding at September 30, 2016 677,057 Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2016 $ 65,750,598 Book value per share at September 30, 2016 $ 97.11September 2016
