INFORMATION ABOUT
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
MEASURES
We supplement our financial results with non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP cost of revenue and non-GAAP
operating cost.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these
non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides
meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical
operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of
operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures is helpful to our investors as it is a
measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation and evaluating our
operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP cost of revenue and non-GAAP total operating cost (excluding cost of revenue) as their
respective GAAP measures, adjusted as applicable to exclude: (1) depreciation and amortization; (2) provision for income taxes; (3)
stock-based compensation expense; (4) interest (income) expense; (5) other (income) expense, net; (6) intangible amortization; and
(7) contingent gains and (losses).
These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have limitations as an analytical
tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In
addition, our use of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies
because they may not calculate these non-GAAP financial measures in the same manner, limiting their respective usefulness as
comparative measures. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider these non-GAAP
financial measures alongside other financial measures, including our results stated in accordance with GAAP.
