(1) In this press release, API has provided a non-GAAP financial measure for (i) gross profit to reflect its financial results without restructuring charges, (ii) gross margin to reflect its financial results without restructuring charges, and (iii) adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), excluding discontinued operations, restructuring charges, acquisition charges and stock-based compensation expenses and certain special income items. Management believes the non-GAAP presentations provide investors an additional analytical tool for understanding the Company's financial performance by excluding the impact of items which may obscure trends in the core operating performance of the business. These are not recognized measures under US GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning, and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Accordingly, investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or loss determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the financial performance of the Company or as a measure of the Company's liquidity and cash flows. We expect our financial statements to continue to be affected by items similar to those excluded in the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from our non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that all such costs are unusual or infrequent.
