Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company has used non-GAAP pro forma financial measures, excluding adjustments related to purchase accounting and restructuring costs, in analyzing financial results because they provide meaningful information regarding the Company's operational performance and facilitate management's internal comparisons to the Company's historical operating results and comparisons to competitors' operating results. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency. Wherever non-GAAP financial measures have been included in this press release, the Company has reconciled them in the table below to their GAAP counterparts. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
