Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management
uses
certain
financial
measures
in
this
presentation
that
are
not
calculated
in
accordance
with
GAAP.
Non-GAAP
financial
measures
include
non-GAAP
earnings
per
share,
non-GAAP
net
income,
non-
GAAP
operating
expenses
and
non-GAAP
operating
profit
margin,
which
exclude
amortization
of
intangible
assets,
leasehold
related
charges,
integration
related
expenses
associated
with
acquired
businesses,
one-
time
restructuring
and
acquisition
related
items,
CEO
transition
related
costs,
certain
litigation
charges
and
non-cash
interest
expense
and
or
losses
on
convertible
notes.
Management
also
uses
certain
non-GAAP
measures
which
are
intended
to
exclude
the
impact
of
foreign
exchange
currency
fluctuations.
The
measure
constant
currency
is
the
use
of
an
exchange
rate
that
eliminates
fluctuations
when
calculating
financial
performance
numbers.
The
Company
also
uses
measures
such
as
free
cash
flow,
which
represents
cash
flow
from
operations
less
cash
used
in
the
acquisition
and
disposition
of
capital.
Additionally,
the
Company
uses
an
adjusted
EBITDA
measure
which
represents
earnings
before
interest,
taxes,
depreciation
and
amortization
and
excludes
the
impact
of
stock-based
compensation,
leasehold
related
charges,
integration
related
expenses
associated
with
acquired
businesses,
CEO
transition
related
costs,
certain
litigation
liabilities,
acquisition
related
items
and
other
significant
one-time
items.
Management
calculates
the
non-GAAP
financial
measures
provided
in
this
presentation
excluding
these
costs
and
uses
these
non-GAAP
financial
measures
to
enable
it
to
further
and
more
consistently
analyze
the
period-to-period
financial
performance
of
its
core
business
operations.
Management
believes
that
providing
investors
with
these
non-GAAP
financial
measures
gives
them
additional
information
to
enable
them
to
assess,
in
the
same
way
management
assesses,
the
Company’s
current
and
future
continuing
operations.
These
non-GAAP
financial
measures
are
not
in
accordance
with,
or
an
alternative
for,
GAAP,
and
may
be
different
from
non-GAAP
financial
measures
used
by
other
companies.

reconciliations
of
non-GAAP
financial
measures
to
the
comparable
GAAP
financial
measure,
