 This presentation includes certain measures presented on a basis other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), including Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share. These amounts are not an alternative to GAAP. Management believes that these measures provide investors with transparency by helping to illustrate the underlying financial and business trends relating to the Company's results of operations and financial condition and comparability between current and prior periods. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of such measures to the most directly comparable GAAP term, included as an Appendix to this presentation.
