Appendix
In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), our
presentation contains the non-GAAP financial measure “Non-GAAP net income”.
Non-GAAP net income is not a measure of performance defined in accordance with GAAP. However, management believes that Non-
GAAP net income is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance because they are commonly used financial analysis tools
for measuring and comparing companies in the Company’s industry in areas of operating performance.
Management believes that the disclosure of Non-GAAP net income offers an additional view of the Company’s operations that, when
coupled with the GAAP results and the reconciliation to GAAP net income, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s
results of operations and the factors and trends affecting the Company’s business.
We define Non-GAAP net income as net income from continuing operations plus (i) stock-based compensation, plus (ii) amortization of
intangible assets, less (iii) an adjustment to the income tax provision for stock-based compensation and amortization of intangibles.
These further adjustments are itemized below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them
appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Non-GAAP net income, you should be aware that in the future we may incur
expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in the presentation. Our presentation of these metrics should not be
construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
Reconciliation of Net Income from Continuing Operations to Non-GAAP Net Income
Description of Adjustment TTM from June 30, 2016
Net Income from continuing operations $1,039,147
Stock based compensation $1,259,318
Amortization of intangibles $937,176
Income tax adjustment to reflect 9% effective rate ($197,684)
Non-GAAP Net Income $3,037,957
