Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial results prepared under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures of net income (loss), as the case may be, and earnings per diluted share that are GAAP net income (loss), as the case may be, and GAAP earnings per diluted share adjusted to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring costs, expenses and gains. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is provided below. In addition, an explanation of how management uses non-GAAP financial information to evaluate its business, the substance behind management's decision to use this non-GAAP financial information, the material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial information, the manner in which management compensates for those limitations, and the substantive reasons management believes that this non-GAAP financial information provides useful information to investors is included under "About our Non-GAAP Net Income and Adjustments" after the tables below.

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 (loss), as the case may be, or earnings per diluted share prepared in accordance with GAAP. 

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 and significant recurring and non-recurring items that we believe are important to understanding 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 the exclusion of the items described below, for which the amounts and/or timing may vary significantly depending on 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 expenses and the costs to integrate such acquisitions into our business, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, corporate headquarters relocation expenses, and imputed interest expense and depreciation, net of accrued sublease income, related to the sale of our corporate headquarters facility and related land.

These excluded items are described below:

• Recurring charges and gains, including:

• Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. Intangible assets acquired to date are being amortized on a straight-line basis. Post-acquisition non-competition agreements are amortized over their term.
• Stock-based compensation expense recognized in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-based Compensation.

• Non-recurring charges and gains, including:

• Restructuring and other consists of:
  
  -- Restructuring charges incurred as we consolidate the number and size of our facilities and, as a result, reduce the size of our workforce.
  -- Acquisition-related executive deferred compensation costs, which are dependent on the continuing employment of a former shareholder of an acquired company, are being amortized on a straight-line basis.
  -- Expenses incurred to integrate businesses acquired during the periods reported and anticipated acquisitions.

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

• Changes in fair value of contingent consideration. Our management determined that we should analyze the total return provided by the investment when evaluating operating results of an acquired entity. The total return consists of operating profit generated from the acquired entity compared to the purchase price paid, including the final amounts paid for contingent consideration without considering any post-acquisition adjustments related to changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration. Because our management believes the final purchase price paid for the acquisition reflects the accounting value assigned to both contingent consideration and to the intangible assets, we exclude the GAAP impact of any adjustments to the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration from the operating results of an acquisition in subsequent periods. We believe this approach is useful in understanding the long-term return provided by our acquisitions and that investors benefit from a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of this adjustment.

• Imputed net expenses related to sale of building and land. On November 1, 2012, we sold the 294,000 square foot building located at 303 Velocity Way in Foster City, California, which serves as our corporate headquarters, along with approximately four acres of land and certain other assets related to the property, to Gilead Sciences, Inc. for $179.7 million. We will continue to use the facility for up to one year for which rent is not required to be paid. This constitutes a form of continuing involvement that prevents gain recognition. Until we vacate the building, the proceeds from the sale will be recognized as deferred proceeds from property transaction on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, which is currently $182.0 million, including imputed interest costs. Imputed interest expense and depreciation of $1.0 million, net of accrued sublease income and capitalized interest, has been accrued as of June 30, 2013.

• Expenses incurred during the period related to the upcoming relocation of our corporate headquarters facility.
   
• Pursuant to a settlement executed in April 2012, we received an additional $0.3 million in insurance proceeds, net of legal fees and costs, related to our previously disclosed settlement of the shareholder derivative litigation concerning our historical option granting practices.

• 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.

• To facilitate comparability of our operating performance between 2013 and 2012, we have excluded the following from our non-GAAP net income:
  
  -- Tax charge of $0.3 million resulting from the filing of tax returns by foreign subsidiaries for periods prior to their acquisition by EFI for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
  -- Tax benefit of $3.2 and $0.2 million from the retroactive renewal of both the 2012 U.S. federal research and development tax credit and certain international tax provisions, respectively, on January 2, 2013, for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The tax benefit for these items had been previously recognized in our non-GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2012
  -- Interest expense accrued on prior year tax reserves of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as well as other tax benefits of $0.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

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 as 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.
