Non-GAAP Financial Measures
comScore reports all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). comScore believes, however, that evaluating its ongoing operating results will be enhanced if it also discloses certain non-GAAP information because it is useful to understand comScore's performance, as it excludes non-cash and other charges that many investors believe may obscure comScore's on-going operating results.
For example, comScore uses non-GAAP net income, which excludes stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment of intangible assets, impairment of marketable securities, costs from acquisitions, restructurings and other infrequently occurring items, non-cash deferred tax provision and litigation and related settlement costs. comScore reports non-GAAP EPS (diluted), which uses non-GAAP net income in lieu of GAAP net income in calculating earnings per share. Year to date 2015 and 2014 non-GAAP pro forma revenue excludes the estimated effects of revenue generated from the Mobile Operator Analytics Division. Year to date 2015 and 2014 adjusted pro forma EBITDA also excludes the estimated effects of operations related to the mobile operator analytics division products.
The company believes that excluding certain costs from non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, and adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful indication to investors of the expected on-going operating performance of the company. Specifically as it relates to acquisitions and restructurings, the exclusion of these costs reflects the expected benefits realized or to be realized upon the integration of acquired entities into comScore, and the realized benefits of the restructurings. In addition, the company believes that adjusting for the pro forma effect of the expected sale of the company's mobile operator analytics division promotes better comparability of the company's financial statements.
Whenever comScore uses such historical non-GAAP financial measures, it provides a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure included in the financial tables accompanying this release. Although the company provides a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures, due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting certain items that affect net income, such as tax rates and stock price, comScore is unable to provide a complete reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts. However, a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA to GAAP income (loss) before income taxes is set forth in the attachment to this press release.
These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting, differ from GAAP measures with the same captions and may differ from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar captions that are used by other companies. The use of certain non-GAAP financial measures requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding amounts of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. comScore bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that it believes are reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cautionary Statement
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including, without limitation, comScore's expectations as to the development of new products, particularly in cross-media measurement; comScore's expectations as to adoption of new products and services by customers; expectations regarding continued growth of comScore's customer base; expectations as to comScore's strategy, market position, growth in revenue and margin expansion, impact and financial benefits of certain products; expectations regarding the benefits of and performance on relationships, such as those with Spotify, Google and WPP/Kantar; expectations regarding the strategic and financial benefits of certain strategic transactions and acquisitions, such as the pending acquisition of Rentrak Corporation or pending disposition of comScore's Digital Analytix assets; expectations and forecasts of future financial performance, including related growth rates and components thereof and effects of acquisitions; and assumptions related to growth for the fourth quarter and full year of 2015 and beyond. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause comScore's actual results to differ materially, including, but not limited to: comScore's ability to develop new products, particularly in cross-media measurement; comScore's ability to close on its pending acquisition of Rentrak and integrate Rentrak's business with its own; comScore's ability to sell new or additional products and attract new customers; comScore's ability to generate strong revenue and margin growth in future periods; comScore's ability to develop new products; comScore's ability to sell additional subscription-based products to customers; comScore's ability to sell additional products and services to existing customers; and the volatility of quarterly results and expectations.
