About our Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjustments

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of net income and earnings per diluted share that are GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per diluted share adjusted to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring costs, expenses, and gains.

We believe that the presentation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share provides important supplemental information regarding non-cash expenses, significant recurring and non-recurring items that we believe are important to understanding our financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share are among the primary indicators used by management as a basis for planning and forecasting future periods and by management and our board of directors to determine whether our operating performance has met specified targets and thresholds. Management uses non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share when evaluating operating performance because it believes that the exclusion of the items described below, for which the amounts and/or timing may vary significantly depending upon the Company's activities and other factors, facilitates comparability of the Company's operating performance from period to period. We have chosen to provide this information to investors so they can analyze our operating results in the same way that management does and use this information in their assessment of our business and the valuation of our Company.

Use and Economic Substance of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We compute non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share by adjusting GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per diluted share to remove the impact of recurring amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and stock-based compensation expense, as well as restructuring related and non-recurring charges and gains and the tax effect of these adjustments. Such non-recurring charges and gains include acquisition-related transaction costs and costs to integrate such acquisitions into our business.

  • Recurring charges and gains, including:

-- Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. Intangible assets acquired to date are being amortized on a straight-line basis.

-- Other acquisition-related expenses, which are included within Restructuring and other.

-- Stock-based compensation expense recognized in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), Topic 718, Stock Compensation.

  • Non-recurring charges and gains consists of:

-- Restructuring related charges.

* We have incurred Restructuring and other charges as we reduced the number and size of our facilities and the size of our workforce.

* Expenses incurred to integrate businesses acquired during the periods reported.

-- Acquisition-related transaction costs associated with businesses acquired during the periods reported and anticipated transactions.

  • Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.

-- After excluding the items described above, we apply the principles of ASC 740, Income Taxes, to estimate the non-GAAP income tax provision in each jurisdiction in which we operate. The expected annual non-GAAP income tax rate assumes that the U.S. federal research and development tax credit will be retroactively re-enacted in 2012.

-- We have excluded the recognition of interest expense accrued on prior year tax reserves of $0.1 million from our non-GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 to facilitate comparability of our operating performance from period to period.

Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Information to Investors

These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP and may be materially different from other non-GAAP measures, including similarly titled non-GAAP measures, used by other companies. The presentation of this additional information should not be considered in isolation from, as a substitute for, or superior to, net income or earnings per diluted share prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. We expect to continue to incur expenses of a nature similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from our non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent, or non-recurring.
