About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures for
non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP diluted loss
per share, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These non-GAAP measures
exclude the net gain on sale transactions, legal expense,
restructuring and impairment expense, acquisition costs, separation
transaction costs, certain non-GAAP stock compensation, other
non-GAAP costs including severance, as well as certain income tax
adjustments, as applicable. These non-GAAP financial measures are
not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP") and are not based on a comprehensive set of
accounting rules. Management believes non-GAAP financial measures
are useful in providing investors with an understanding of how
specific line items in the consolidated statements of income (loss)
are affected by items that may not be indicative of the operating
results of the Company's core business. To the extent that other
companies use similar methods in calculating and reporting non-GAAP
operating results, the Company believes provision of supplemental
non-GAAP financial information allows for a meaningful comparison
of the Company's performance against the performance of other
companies. The Company further believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures provide useful information regarding its ongoing
operating activities and business trends related to its results of
operations, as well as a meaningful comparison with historical
financial results. The Company's management and board of directors
utilize these non-GAAP financial measures, together with the
Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, in
developing operating budgets and evaluating the Company's
performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to
supplement GAAP financial information, and should not be considered
as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these
non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP
financial measures used by other companies. Refer to the
accompanying tables for a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures.
