Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial measures, such as organic constant currency growth rates, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted
earnings per diluted share and free cash flow, among others, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Companys
definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. The non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release adjust for
specified items that can be highly variable or difficult to predict. The Company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate managements financial and operational decision-making,
including evaluation of the Companys historical operating results, comparison to competitors operating results and determination of management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial
measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Companys operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and
trends affecting the Companys business. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Companys reported results of operations, management
strongly encourages investors to review the Companys consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this release.
