Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition. OnAugust 6, 2020 ,Republic Services, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release containing information about the Company's financial results for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2020 . A copy of this press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. 2020 Financial Guidance Our guidance assumes continued gradual improvement in economic activity through the remainder of the year. Cash provided by operating activities for 2020 is expected to be in a range of$2,145 million and$2,295 million . Adjusted free cash flow for 2020 is expected to be in a range of$1,100 million to$1,175 million . Adjusted free cash flow consists of cash provided by operating activities, less property and equipment received of between$1,075 million to$1,150 million , plus proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of$15 million and is exclusive of cash paid for restructuring activities of$14 million , net of tax, payments for multiemployer pension withdrawal costs of$25 million , net of tax, divestiture related tax payments of$2 million and$26 million related to the Bridgeton insurance recovery, net of tax. We believe that presenting adjusted free cash flow guidance provides useful information regarding our recurring cash provided by operating activities after certain expenditures or recoveries. It also demonstrates our ability to execute our financial strategy and is a key metric we use to determine compensation. The presentation of adjusted free cash flow has material limitations. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent our cash flow available for discretionary expenditures because it excludes certain expenditures that are required or to which we have committed, such as debt service requirements and dividend payments. Our definition of adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
