Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The financial table shown above uses certain financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and therefore are referred to as Non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding business trends, results of operations, and the Company's overall performance. Our executive management team uses these financial measures to evaluate the performance of the Company in terms of profitability and efficiency, to compare operating results to prior periods, to evaluate changes in the operating results of each segment, and to measure and allocate financial resources to our segments. The Company believes that the use of these Non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in comparing its financial measures with other companies.

Our executive management does not consider such Non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to such measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which items are excluded. In order to compensate for these limitations, Non-GAAP financial measures are presented in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors and potential investors to review the reconciliation of our Non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.

The following is a description of the items excluded from adjusted operating profit, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS for the twelve-month period presented in the table above:

Pension settlement charge - During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a $50.4 million pension settlement charge, of which $47.0 million related to a purchase of a group annuity contract from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (“MetLife”) to settle $139.4 million of its $313.6 million outstanding pension benefit obligation under its U.S. qualified pension plan. MetLife assumed the obligation to pay future pension benefits and provide administrative services beginning November 1, 2015 for approximately 1,750 retirees and surviving beneficiaries who retired before January 1, 2015 and are currently receiving payments from this plan. The purchase was funded directly by plan assets. The remaining portion of the pension settlement charge related to lump-sum payouts made to terminated vested participants of its U.S. qualified pension plan.

Executive retirement and related costs - During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a $10.9 million charge for executive retirement and related costs, including $2.4 million for a long-term incentive plan award for the Company’s previous chief executive officer (“CEO”), $8.0 million for the revaluation of modified outstanding awards to provide for continued vesting for the Company’s previous CEO and Senior Vice President of Human Resources in conjunction with their retirement, and $0.5 million for other costs, including relocation and legal fees.

Discrete tax items - During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a discrete tax charge of $0.8 million resulting from the impact of a change in the enacted tax rate in the United Kingdom on previously-recorded deferred tax asset balances.
