Income from operations before stock based compensation expense is a
financial measure we use to evaluate the underlying results and
operating performance of our business. The difference between income
from operations (the most comparable GAAP measure) and income from
operations before stock based compensation expense (the non GAAP
measure) reflects the impact of adopting SFAS 123(R) on the current
period results. We believe income from operations before stock based
compensation expense is a useful measure that allows investors to draw
comparisons between operating results reported prior to adoption of
SFAS 123(R) and the current period which may mask underlying trends
and make it difficult to give investors perspective on underlying
business results.
