Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In our press release and schedules, we report certain financial
measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with,
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“GAAP”). We discuss management’s reasons for reporting
these non-GAAP measures below, and the press release schedules that
follow reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to each
non-GAAP measure that we reference. Although management evaluates
and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described
below, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures have
limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for revenue, total costs and expenses, income from
operations, operating margin, income before income taxes, net
income, earnings per share or any other comparable financial
measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, we may calculate and/or
present these non-GAAP financial measures differently than measures
with the same or similar names that other companies report, and as
a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to
those reported by others.
Management uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial
performance because those non-GAAP measures allow for
period-over-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operations
before the impact of certain items described below. Management
believes this information is useful to investors to compare the
Company’s results of operations period-over-period. These measures
are Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted
Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income
Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Net Income, Earnings Before Interest,
Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA and
Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS). We define Adjusted
Revenue, Adjusted Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted Income from
Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income Before
Income Taxes, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS to
exclude (1) amortization and depreciation expense related to
intangible assets and software assets associated with the Company’s
acquisition of Torrens University and associated assets in
Australia and New Zealand, (2) integration expenses associated with
the Company’s merger with Capella Education Company and the
Company’s acquisition of Torrens University and associated assets
in Australia and New Zealand, (3) severance costs, asset impairment
charges, gains on sale of real estate and early termination of
leased facilities, and other costs associated with the Company’s
restructuring activities, (4) income/loss recognized from the
Company’s investments in partnership interests and other
investments, and (5) discrete tax adjustments utilizing adjusted
effective income tax rates of 30.0% and 29.5% for the three months
ended September 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively. To illustrate
currency impacts to operating results, Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted
Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted
Operating Margin, Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Net
Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended
September 30, 2024 are also presented on a constant currency basis
utilizing an exchange rate of 0.65 Australian Dollars to U.S.
Dollars, which was the average exchange rate for the same period in
2023. We define EBITDA as net income before other income, the
provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and from
this amount in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA we also exclude
stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense associated
with deferred implementation costs incurred in cloud computing
arrangements, and the amounts in (2) and (3) above. These non-GAAP
measures are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP
measures in the sections that follow. Non-GAAP measures should not
be viewed as substitutes for GAAP measures.
