Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the Company’s results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our performance.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered as indicators of our financial performance in isolation from or as a substitute for our financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with financial information presented on a GAAP basis.
