The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to Modern Systems’ GAAP results and is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Modern System’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance by excluding certain charges and gains that may not be indicative of Modern Systems’ core business operating results. Modern Systems believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Modern Systems’ performance. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparisons to Modern Systems’ historical performance. Modern Systems includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. Non-GAAP measures are reconciled to comparable GAAP measures in the table entitled “Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP.”
