RECONCILIATION OF GAAP NET INCOME TO PRO FORMA NET INCOME
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
Pursuant to the requirement of Regulation G, the Company has provided
a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These measures differ from
GAAP in that they exclude the amortization of intangible assets. The
Company has provided these measurements in addition to GAAP financial
results because it believes they provide a consistent basis for
comparison between periods that is not influenced by certain non-cash
expenses and therefore are helpful to understanding the Company's
underlying operational results. These same measures are used by
management when evaluating the continuing operating results of the
Company.
