The Company has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures in this
release, such as non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net diluted EPS, non-GAAP

The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of its operations that, when viewed with its GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business.
