(1) Reconciliation of Earnings and Earnings Per Share Following
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles With Non-GAAP Financial
Measures (Non-GAAP Earnings and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share)
Management believes that presenting non-GAAP earnings and non-GAAP earnings per share is useful to investors in addition to the GAAP measures because the non-GAAP measures help investors understand operating results and make comparisons with prior periods. Management believes that excluding each of the below adjustments in calculating non-GAAP results is helpful to investors in comparing the operations of the core business between periods. In addition to providing investors with a helpful comparison, management believes that: --excluding the amortization of deferred stock compensation is helpful because it is a non-cash item; --excluding 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. is helpful because it is non-cash and the intangible asset is not expected to be replaced when fully amortized (as might a depreciable depreciable Of, relating to, or being a long-term tangible asset that is subject to depreciation. asset); and --excluding the business restructuring charges restructuring charge The expense of reorganizing a company's operations. A restructuring charge is an infrequent expense that generally results from asset writedowns or facility closings. is useful because while the category of expense recurs, including such expenditures may actually distort the comparability of expenses from period to period. Paradyne's management uses non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the Company's net income and operating performance of the core business on a period-over-period basis, and for planning and forecasting future periods. Management does not consider the amortization of deferred stock compensation and intangible assets in its review of the business. Additionally, while management constantly reviews the structure of the business to assure it is properly and efficiently operating, once changes are made, there is no value in comparing 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). costs from period to period. The value is only in reviewing the expected operating results after making a restructuring change. In order to calculate non-GAAP earnings per share, the Company may also need to calculate non-GAAP diluted shares. Whenever the Company has a net loss, both basic and diluted shares will be the same because the effect of increasing the number of shares for dilution Dilution A reduction in earnings per share of common stock that occurs through the issuance of additional shares or the conversion of convertible securities. Notes: Adding to the number of shares outstanding reduces the value of holdings of existing shareholders. would be to decrease the loss per share (which would be anti-dilutive), since the calculation is net loss divided by the number of shares. When transactions are excluded in computing computing - computer non-GAAP earnings, in some cases, the exclusion can result in changing a net loss to net income. When this happens, increasing the share count will reduce earnings per share. Therefore, when the Company excludes transactions from its GAAP net loss resulting in non-GAAP net income, the Company calculates non-GAAP diluted shares by increasing the share count by the dilutive effect Dilutive effect Result of a transaction that decreases earnings per common share (EPS). of stock options.
