Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses non-GAAP core net income, core income before income tax, core pre-tax return on average equity and core diluted EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP core net income and non-GAAP core diluted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that represent our net income (loss) and net income (loss) per diluted share, adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain costs, costs incurred from activities that are not normal recurring operating expenses, and costs associated with acquisitions. To calculate non-GAAP core diluted EPS, we use the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding that is used to calculate net income per diluted share under GAAP. Non-GAAP core income before income tax is core net income before deducting income taxes. Non-GAAP core pre-tax return on average equity is core income before income tax divided by our average shareholders’ equity.

We have included non-GAAP core net income, non-GAAP core income before income tax, non-GAAP core pre-tax return on average equity and non-GAAP core diluted EPS because they are key measures used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. Accordingly, we believe that non-GAAP core net income, non-GAAP core income before income tax, non-GAAP core pre-tax return on average equity and non-GAAP core diluted EPS provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. In addition, they provide useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business, as they remove the effect of certain items that we expect to be nonrecurring.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

For more information on Core Net Income, please refer to the section of this press release below titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliations to GAAP Measures" at the end of this press release.
