This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures such as non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS. We present non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to GAAP measures. In addition, the non-GAAP measures we use, as presented, may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Infinera believes these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of its underlying financial performance and also its prospects for the future and are considered by management for the purpose of making operational decisions. See the Appendix to this presentation for reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures. Forward Looking Statements
