These non-GAAP estimates do not include the company's anticipated deferred compensation charges and amortization charges related to purchased intangible assets, estimated losses on the investment in Aarohi, restructuring charges or any additional charges related to unanticipated events. GAAP EPS, which includes these anticipated charges, is expected to be approximately $0.10 lower than the company's non-GAAP EPS for the first quarter, based on an approximate zero percent GAAP tax rate. This outlook assumes no additional acquisitions, asset impairments, restructurings or other unanticipated events, which may or may not be insignificant.
