This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates.

In addition to the GAAP financials, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. Other companies, including companies in the Company's industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. The Company urges you to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures set forth in the Appendix, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
