Note on Non-GAAP Financial Measures As used in this presentation the term "reported" refers to measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The term "adjusted" refers to non-GAAP operating performance measures that exclude special items such as restructuring and integration charges, amortization expense, gains and losses on investments, and excess tax benefits ("ETB") associated with stock-based compensation. The company has provided discussion of projected operating margin, which is adjusted operating income as a percentage of net revenues, and a compound annual growth rate projection beyond 2025 of 7%-9% for adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), which are non-GAAP measures. The company is unable to present a reconciliation of adjusted operating income as a percentage of net revenues to operating income as a percentage of net revenues and adjusted diluted EPS to reported diluted EPS, the most comparable GAAP measure due to the inherent uncertainty and variability in the nature and amount of special items referenced above, and the amount of these items could be significant in any of the associated periods. The company has provided a compound annual growth rate projection beyond 2025 of 7%-9% for adjusted diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), which is a non-GAAP measure. The company is unable to present a reconciliation of adjusted diluted EPS to reported diluted EPS, the most comparable GAAP measure due to the inherent uncertainty and variability in the nature and amount of special items referenced above, and the amount of these items could be significant in any of the associated periods. Non-GAAP adjusted measures are presented because management believes those measures are useful adjuncts to GAAP results. Non-GAAP adjusted measures should not be considered as an alternative to the corresponding measures determined under GAAP. Management may use these non-GAAP measures to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, to analyze the underlying trends in our business, to establish operational budgets and forecasts and for incentive compensation purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors and analysts to evaluate our performance period over period and relative to competitors, as well as to analyze the underlying trends in our business and to assess our performance. 31 Investor Day 2025 Quest Diagnostics
