Use of Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
This press release and the related conference call described above contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP operating income and margin and adjusted EBITDA. The Company defines non-GAAP net income as GAAP net income before the net-of-tax impact of stock-based compensation, expenses associated with the Company’s 2005 recapitalization, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related costs and restructuring charges. Non-GAAP operating income and margin are defined as GAAP operating income before the pre-tax impact of stock-based compensation, expenses associated with the Company’s 2005 recapitalization, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related costs and restructuring charges. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income before interest expenses (net of interest income), provision for income taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, expenses associated with the Company’s 2005 recapitalization, acquisition-related costs and restructuring charges.
The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to its investors and lenders because these measures allow for more accurate comparisons of operating results from period-to-period, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and provide greater insight into the prospects for the Company’s ongoing business operations. Moreover, the Company also believes it is appropriate to exclude costs associated with restructuring charges because these charges are excluded from management’s assessment of the Company’s operating performance and are not related to the Company’s ongoing business operations. In addition, the Company excludes the items from EBITDA described above in its calculations to determine compliance with its debt covenants and to assess its ability to borrow additional funds to finance or expand its operations.
The Company believes that by reporting these measures, it provides insight and consistency in its financial reporting and presents a basis for comparison of its business operations between current, past and future periods. In addition, the measures provide a basis for the Company to compare its financial results to those of other comparable publicly traded companies and are used by its management team to plan and forecast its business.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance which are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of our GAAP to non-GAAP net income and adjusted EBITDA, which are set forth below.
