These changes included the following:

Restatement. The financial results disclosed in this earnings release reflect the announced restatement of the Company's financial results for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, as well as the Company's interim condensed consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal quarters during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. A full description of the restatement, which pertains to (i) the manner in which the Company accounts for cash receipts from the sale of patient service equipment in its consolidated statement of cash flows and (ii) a workers compensation adjustment, is included in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed today with the SEC. The restatement resulted in no change to the Company's total cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and also did not impact the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
2012 Fourth Quarter Highlights
Net revenues in the three months ended December 31, 2012 were $624.4 million, compared to $603.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $21.0 million or 3.5%. Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2012 increased primarily due to increased volume in the home infusion therapy segment, partially offset by decreased volume in the home respiratory therapy and home medical equipment segment.
Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies1 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $73.9 million.
Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $52.4 million. The Company's net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2012 reflects the following non-cash impairment charge based on the results of our impairment testing as of December 31, 2012 and the tax impact associated with the impairment charge:
(i) Trade name impairment of $70.0 million, all of which relates to the home respiratory therapy/home medical equipment reporting unit; and
(ii) Tax benefit of $27.6 million relating to the intangible assets impairment.
All of these items resulted in a $42.4 million increase in our net loss in the three months ended December 31, 2012.

Net revenues in the year ended December 31, 2012 were $2.44 billion, compared to $2.30 billion in the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $134.8 million or 5.9%. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased primarily due to increased volume in the home infusion therapy segment and the home respiratory therapy and home medical equipment segment, as well as the acquisition of Praxair assets in March 2011.
Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies1 for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $269.4 million.
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $260.4 million. The Company's net loss for 2012 reflects the following non-cash impairment charge based on the results of our impairment testing as of December 31, 2012 ($280.0 million charge in Q3 2012 and $70.0 million charge in Q4 2012) and the tax impact associated with the impairment charge:
(i) Trade name impairment of $350.0 million, $270.0 million of which relates to the home respiratory therapy/home medical equipment reporting unit and $80.0 million is allocated to the home infusion therapy reporting unit; and
(ii) Tax benefit of $131.6 million relating to the intangible assets impairment.
All of these items resulted in a $218.4 million increase in our net loss in the year ended December 31, 2012.

Definition of Terms and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes several metrics which are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies and Free Cash Flow. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies and Free Cash Flow are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, these measures are not intended to be measures of Free Cash Flow available for management's discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments and debt service requirements. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We believe that such measures provide useful information about our financial condition and covenant compliance under the indenture governing our Series A-1 Notes and Series A-2 Notes and in our ABL Facility to investors and we compensate for the limitations of using non-GAAP financial measures by presenting them together with GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone.
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash items, costs incurred related to initiatives, other adjustment items and projected cost savings and synergies permitted in calculating covenant compliance under the indenture governing our Series A-1 Notes and Series A-2 Notes and the credit agreement governing our ABL Facility.
Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies is defined as Adjusted EBITDA less the projected cost savings and synergies that we expect to realize in connection with cost savings, restructuring and other similar initiatives.
Free Cash Flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less purchases of patient service equipment and property, equipment and improvements, net of proceeds from the sale of patient service equipment and other, exclusive of effects of acquisitions.
The following tables provide reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA before projected cost savings and synergies and Free Cash Flow for the periods presented to the respective most closely comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
