Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effects on the Statement of Operations of, among others, all forms of stock-based compensation, non-cash acquired intangibles amortization and impairment charges, and restructuring charges, and their related effects on the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP income (loss) per share.
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to manage the company's business, including setting operating budgets and executive compensation plans. These non-GAAP measures are also used to (i) supplement the financial results and forecasts reported to the company's board of directors, (ii) evaluate the company's operating performance, (iii) compare the company's performance to internal forecasts, and (iv) manage the company's business and benchmarking performance internally. The non-GAAP measures have been made available to stockholders consistently in the past to provide transparency on how management manages the company's operating performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP operating measures are useful to investors, when used as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating the company's ongoing operational performance.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the company should not be considered in isolation or a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
