(1) Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures ATG is providing the non-GAAP historical and forward-looking financial measures presented below as the company believes that these figures are helpful in allowing individuals to better assess the ongoing nature of ATG's core operations. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is a numerical numerical expressed in numbers, i.e. Arabic numerals of 0 to 9 inclusive. numerical nomenclature a numerical code is used to indicate the words, or other alphabetical signals, intended. measure of a company's historical or future financial performance that excludes amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in the GAAP statement of operations See Income statement. . Net income (non-GAAP) and net income per share (non-GAAP), as we present them in the financial data below included in this press release, have been normalized to exclude the net effects of restructuring restructuring - The transformation from one representation form to another at the same relative abstraction level, while preserving the subject system's external behaviour (functionality and semantics). actions and the amortization of intangible assets Intangible Asset An asset that is not physical in nature. Notes: Examples are things like copyrights, patents, intellectual property, and goodwill. These are the opposite of tangible assets. and non-cash compensation charges. Management believes that these normalized non-GAAP financial measures excluding restructuring and amortization better reflect its operating performance as these non-GAAP figures exclude the effects of non-recurring or non-cash expenses Noun 1. non-cash expense - an expense (such as depreciation) that is not paid for in cash disbursal, disbursement, expense - amounts paid for goods and services that may be currently tax deductible (as opposed to capital expenditures) . Management believes that these charges are not necessarily representative of underlying trends in the company's performance and their exclusion provides individuals with additional information to compare the company's results over multiple periods. Also, the company's financial results have not historically reflected the impact of non-cash compensation charges required by the adoption of SFAS 123R effective in 2006, and management believes it may be helpful to investors to present a measure of its financial results that is prepared on a basis that is comparable to its reported results for prior periods. The company uses the normalized non-GAAP financial measures internally to focus management on period-to-period changes in the company's core business. Therefore, the company believes that this information is meaningful in addition to the information contained in the GAAP presentation of financial information. The presentation of this additional non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the table below presents the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and reconciles the normalized non-GAAP financial metrics metrics Managed care A popular term for standards by which the quality of a product, service, or outcome of a particular form of Pt management is evaluated.
