Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company reports non-GAAP results for diluted net income per share, net income, gross margins, operating margins, and free cash flow in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The company’s financial results under GAAP include substantial non-cash charges related to stock compensation expense, incremental interest expense and gain on debt extinguishment, amortization expense related to intangible assets, compensation expense related to contingent consideration, and expense related to acquired research and development. Per share amounts also include the double dilution associated with the accounting treatment of the company’s convertible debt outstanding and the corresponding call option overlay. Management believes that presentation of operating results that excludes these non-cash charges provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Management also believes that this supplemental non-GAAP information is therefore useful to investors in analyzing and assessing the company’s past and future operating performance.

The company encourages investors to carefully consider its results under GAAP, as well as its supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand its business. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP results are presented in the tables of this release.

Use of Forward Looking Statements

This release may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are made based on our expectations as of the date of this release and may differ materially from actual future events or results. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements are (i) our ability to develop and commercialize further our BeadArray™, VeraCode®, and Solexa® technologies and to deploy new sequencing, gene expression, and genotyping products and applications for our technology platforms, (ii) our ability to manufacture robust instrumentation and reagents technology, and (iii) reductions in the funding levels to our primary customers, including as a result of the timing and amount of funding provided by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, together with other factors detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q or in information disclosed in public conference calls, the date and time of which are released beforehand.
