Fiscal Year 2016 GAAP Operating Results
Fiscal Year 2017 Guidance
The Company initiated its
fiscal year 2017 guidance. Details are summarized as follows:
Non-GAAP earnings per share guidance
excludes amortization of intangible assets and other costs including integration expenses which we may incur as part of our continuing operations.
respect to the Company s guidance expectations, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP earnings per share guidance to GAAP earnings per share due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting acquisition-related, integration and restructuring
charges and expenses, which are reconciling items between the non-GAAP and GAAP measure. Due to the unknown effect, timing and potential significance of such charges and expenses that impact GAAP earnings per share, the Company is not able to
provide such guidance.
Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Non-GAAP Results
To supplement our financial results and guidance presented on a GAAP basis, we use non-GAAP measures that we believe are helpful in understanding our results.
The non-GAAP measures exclude costs which we generally would not have otherwise incurred in the periods presented as a part of our continuing operations. Our non-GAAP financial results and guidance are not meant to be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses
supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate our business and make operating decisions. These non-GAAP measures are among the factors management uses in planning and forecasting for future
periods. We believe it is useful for investors to understand the effects of these items on our consolidated operating results. Our non-GAAP financial measures include the following adjustments, and as appropriate, the related income tax
effects and changes in income attributable to noncontrolling interests:
We define the non-GAAP measure of free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. We
believe free cash flow is useful for investors as an additional measure of liquidity because it represents cash flows that are available for repayment of debt, repurchases of our common
stock or to fund our strategic initiatives. Management uses free cash flow internally to understand, manage, make operating decisions and evaluate our business. In addition, we use free
cash flow to help plan and forecast future periods.
