Adjusted EBITA Margin (non- GAAP) is Adjusted EBITA (non-GAAP) divided by Revenues.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITA Margin (non- GAAP), along with the GAAP measures used by management, appropriately reflect how the Company measures the business internally and sets operational goals for each of its businesses. In particular, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITA Margin (non-GAAP) focuses management on the Company's underlying operational results and segment performance. As a result, the Company uses Adjusted EBITA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITA Margin (non-GAAP) to assess the actual financial performance of each segment and to forecast future results as part of its guidance. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITA (non-GAAP) and Adjusted EBITA Margin (non-GAAP) are useful to investors as they provide consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of the Company's profitability and the profitability of our segments as they eliminate the effects of certain cash and non-cash charges, which given their nature and frequency, are outside the ordinary course and relate to unique circumstances. As with Adjusted EBITDA, prior to 2022, in calculating Adjusted EBITA, the Company had excluded expenses associated with acquired IPR&D. However, for the same reasons indicated above, commencing in 2022, the Company no longer excludes acquired IPR&D in its calculation of Adjusted EBITA. Reference is made to the description above for further details on this change. Adjusted Gross Profit/Adjusted Gross Margin Adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) represents gross profit (its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) adjusted for Other revenues, Cost of other revenues, Amortization of intangible assets and fair value adjustments to inventory in connection with business combinations. In accordance with GAAP, Gross profit represents total Revenues less Costs of goods sold (excluding amortization of intangible assets) less Cost of other revenues less Amortization of intangible assets. Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for which is gross margin) represents Adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) divided by Product revenues. Adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) and Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) are measures used by management to understand and evaluate the Company's and each of its segment's pricing strategy, strength of product portfolio, ability to control product costs and the success of its go-to-market strategies. Adjusted gross profit (non-GAAP) and Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) facilitate period-to-period comparisons of the Company's and each of its segment's ability to generate cash flows from sales, as these measures eliminate the effects of amortization of intangible assets and fair value adjustments to inventory in connection with business combinations, which are a non-cash charges.
