“Gushan’s fourth consecutive quarter of revenue growth was driven by continued expansion of our recycled copper products business, which is demonstrating significant growth both organically and through strategic acquisitions,” said Jianqiu Yu, Chairman and Principal Executive Officer of Gushan, “During the third quarter we acquired a controlling interest in recycled copper producer Hunan Yin Lian Xiangbei Copper Company Limited and in December 2011 we acquired control of Guangzhou Taiyue Communications Company Limited, a manufacturer of copper cables for use in the telecommunications and personal computing industries. In our biodiesel business, raw material shortages negatively impacted production despite a continued rebound in diesel prices and some moderation in raw material cost inflation. We are carefully monitoring market conditions as we evaluate resuming production at idled plants.”
Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2011
Revenues
The Company’s revenues amounted to RMB475.3 million (US$74.5 million) for the third quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 1,044.7% from RMB41.5 million for the third quarter of 2010 and an increase of 45.3% from RMB327.1 million for the second quarter of 2011.
The increase in revenues on a year-to-year basis was mainly due to the revenue contribution of the recycled copper products business. During the third quarter of 2011, the revenues from our recycled copper products business amounted to RMB472.5 million (US$74.2 million), comprising revenue from our two consolidated subsidiaries, Mianyang Jin Xin Copper Company Limited (“Jin Xin”) and Hunan Yinlian Xiangbei Copper Company Limited (“Xiangbei”), of RMB421.7 million (US$66.1 million) and RMB63.8 million (US$10.0 million) (including RMB12.0 million (US$1.9 million) of revenues attributable to intracompany sales), respectively. As a result of the Company’s initial acquisition of a 67% beneficial ownership interest in Jin Xin, in November 2010, the Company began consolidating Jin Xin’s operating results into its operating results. In January 2011, the Company acquired an additional 8% beneficial ownership interest in Jin Xin, increasing its beneficial ownership in Jin Xin to 75%. Furthermore, as a result of the Company’s acquisition of a 75% beneficial ownership interest in Xiangbei in August 2011, the Company began consolidating Xiangbei’s operating results into its operating results. The increase in revenues on a sequential quarterly basis was mainly due to the increase in revenues from Jin Xin and the consolidation of Xiangbei’s revenues starting in August 2011.
The Company’s revenue from its biodiesel business totaled RMB1.8 million (US$0.3 million) for the third quarter of 2011, representing a decrease of 95.8% from RMB41.5 million for the third quarter of 2010 and a decrease of 92.1% from RMB22.3 million for the second quarter of 2011. The decrease in revenue from the biodiesel business on both a year-to-year and sequential quarterly basis was mainly due to a decrease in the sales volume of both biodiesel and biodiesel by-products. The declines in biodiesel revenues and sales volume were attributable to continued suspension of production at most of the Company’s biodiesel plants due to unfavorable market conditions and temporary shortage of raw materials due to local governments cracking down on certain alleged practices of vendors of used cooking oil that forced some of our suppliers to suspend operations.
The sales volume of biodiesel amounted to 203 tons for the third quarter of 2011, representing a decrease of 97.6% from 8,363 tons for the third quarter of 2010 and a decrease of 94.0% from 3,361 tons for the second quarter of 2011. The average selling price of biodiesel was RMB6,771 (US$1,061.6) per ton for the third quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 44.9% from RMB4,672 per ton for the third quarter of 2010 and an increase of 10.0% from RMB6,156 per ton for the second quarter of 2011.
The sales volume of biodiesel by-products amounted to 115 tons for the third quarter of 2011, representing a decrease of 90.9% from 1,260 tons for the third quarter of 2010, and a decrease of 80.2% from 580 tons for the second quarter of 2011. The average selling price of biodiesel by-products was RMB3,365 (US$527.6) per ton for the third quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 73.1% from RMB1,944 per ton for the third quarter of 2010 and an increase of 24.6% from RMB2,700 per ton for the second quarter of 2011.
The Company suspended production at its old plant in San Tai County in Sichuan in August 2010 in preparation for the relocation of the production lines to its new plant in Qin Dong Bei Industrial Park. The new plant has been conducting a trial run since early June 2011. The decrease in sales volume of both biodiesel and biodiesel by-products on a year-to-year basis as well as a sequential quarterly basis was primarily due to the suspension of production at Beijing Gushan and Hebei Gushan as a result of the Company’s strategy to avoid negative operating cash flows caused by the increasingly high raw material input costs.
The year-to-year and sequential quarterly increase in the average selling price of biodiesel was mainly attributable to improved conditions in the refined oil market in China following the decline in the market price of diesel in China, which began in the fourth quarter of 2008 and continued through to the third quarter of 2009, resulting from a decrease in global oil prices and weaker industrial production in China amid the global financial crisis. The average selling price of biodiesel began to increase gradually from the fourth quarter of 2009 to 2011.

The Company’s revenue from its recycled copper products business totaled RMB473.5 million (US$74.2 million) for the third quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 55.3% from RMB304.8 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase in revenue on a sequential quarterly basis was mainly due to an increase in Jin Xin’s revenue by 38.3% from RMB304.8 million for the second quarter of 2011 to RMB421.7 million (US$66.1 million), reflecting mainly an increase in sales volume of recycled copper products by 36.4% from 4,958 tons for the second quarter of 2011 to 6,761 tons for the third quarter of 2011, and the contribution from Xiangbei’s sales of RMB51.8 million (US$8.1 million), representing a sales volume of 874 tons, since the date of acquisition on August 1, 2011. The average selling price of recycled copper products decreased by 1.9% from RMB60,638 per ton for the second quarter of 2011 to RMB59,473 (US$9,324.7) per ton for the third quarter of 2011.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the third quarter of 2011 totaled RMB471.4 million (US$73.9 million), representing an increase of 620.9% from RMB65.4 million for the third quarter of 2010 and an increase of 46.7% from RMB321.3 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase on a year-to-year basis was mainly due to cost of revenues of RMB464.4 million (US$72.8 million) from the Company’s recycled copper products business. The increase on a sequential quarterly basis was mainly due to the increase in sales volume of recycled copper products.
The cost of revenues of the Company’s biodiesel business totaled RMB7.0 million (US$1.1 million) for the third quarter of 2011, representing a decrease of 89.3% from RMB65.4 million for the third quarter of 2010 and a decrease of 73.5% from RMB26.4 million for the second quarter of 2011. Excluding the provision for consumption tax, cost of revenues of the Company’s biodiesel business for the third quarter of 2011 decreased by 88.9% from the third quarter of 2010.
Cost of revenues of the Company’s biodiesel business included a provision for consumption tax of RMB2.4 million during the third quarter of 2010. The provision was subsequently reversed in the fourth quarter of 2010. The reversal of the provision for consumption tax was made as a result of the issuance of Caishui [2010] No. 118,Notice Regarding the Exemption from Consumption Tax on Pure Biodiesel Made from Waste Animal Fats or Vegetable Oils (“Caishui 118”) by the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation of the PRC (“SAT”) which clarified that, subject to fulfillment of certain conditions, pure biodiesel made from waste animal fat or vegetable oil is exempt from consumption tax in China.
The decrease in cost of revenues of the Company’s biodiesel products on both a year-to-year and sequential quarterly basis was primarily attributable to a decrease in the Company’s sales volume of both biodiesel and biodiesel by-products. This was partially offset by an increase in the overall average unit cost of used cooking oil, which increased by 25.7% from RMB4,008 per ton for the third quarter of 2010 and by 5.6% from RMB4,770 per ton for the second quarter of 2011 to RMB5,039 (US$790.0) per ton in the third quarter of 2011. The increases in the cost of used cooking oil were caused by an increase in the Company’s suppliers’ costs, which are primarily affected by general cost inflation, particularly in labor and transportation in China, as well as a general increase in prices charged by their upstream suppliers.
The cost of revenues of the Company’s recycled copper products business totaled RMB464.4 million (US$72.8 million) for the third quarter of 2011, representing an increase of 57.5% from RMB294.9 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase was mainly due to an increase in sales volume by 54.0% from 4,958 tons for the second quarter of 2011 to 7,635 tons for the third quarter of 2011. The unit cost of raw materials increased by 0.3% from RMB56,191 per ton for the second quarter of 2011 to RMB56,023 (US$8,783.8) per ton for the third quarter of 2011.
Gross profit (loss)
The Company’s gross profit for the third quarter of 2011 totaled RMB3.8 million (US$0.6 million), compared to a gross loss of RMB23.9 million for the third quarter of 2010 and a gross profit of RMB5.8 million for the second quarter of 2011. The Company’s gross profit for the third quarter of 2011 was composed of a gross profit of RMB9.1 million (US$1.4 million) from its recycled copper products business, representing a gross profit margin of 1.9%, partially offset by a gross loss of RMB5.2 million (US$0.8 million) from its biodiesel business, representing a gross loss margin of 298.7%.
The Company’s gross loss for the third quarter of 2010 was derived from its biodiesel business, with a gross loss margin of 57.5%. Excluding the provision for the consumption tax, the gross loss margin of the Company’s biodiesel business would have been 51.7% for the third quarter of 2010. The Company’s gross profit for the second quarter of 2011 consisted of a gross loss of RMB4.1 million from its biodiesel business, representing a gross loss margin of 18.6%, and a gross profit of RMB9.9 million from its recycled copper products business, representing a gross profit margin of 3.3%.
The deterioration in the gross margin of the Company’s biodiesel business on both a year-to-year and sequential quarterly basis was mainly due to a provision for inventory write-downs of RMB4.5 million (US$0.7 million) because higher fixed costs of manufacturing were used to calculate the quarter-end inventory balances as a result of a low utilization rate during the third quarter of 2011.

Table of Contents
The decrease in gross profit margin of the Company’s recycled copper products business on a sequential quarterly basis was mainly caused by a narrowing spread between the average selling price of recycled copper products and the average unit cost of raw materials. The average unit costs of raw materials increased by 0.3%, while the average selling price of its recycled copper products decreased by 1.9%. Furthermore, the Company also made a provision for inventory write-downs of RMB10.2 million (US$1.6 million) for its recycled copper products business for the third quarter of 2011 as a result of the decrease in the average selling price in October 2011.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses totaled RMB0.1 million (less than US$0.1 million) in the third quarter of 2011, as compared to RMB1.0 million for the third quarter of 2010 and RMB0.1 million for the second quarter of 2011. The decrease on a year-to-year basis was mainly due to a decrease in depreciation expenses as a result of a lower cost base for certain of the Company’s property, plant and equipment after these assets were impaired in 2010.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2011 totaled RMB17.7 million (US$2.8 million), as compared to RMB17.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 and RMB17.7 million for the second quarter of 2011.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses for the third quarter of 2011 amounted to RMB9.8 million (US$1.5 million), compared to RMB22.7 million for the third quarter of 2010 and RMB8.9 million for the second quarter of 2011. Other operating expenses mainly consisted of depreciation of buildings and machinery and other amortization and salary paid to factory workers during the periods in which certain plants suspended their production.
The decrease on a year-to-year basis was mainly due to a decrease in depreciation expenses as a result of a lower cost base for certain of the Company’s property, plant and equipment after these assets were impaired in 2010.
As previously announced in 2009 and 2010, the Company suspended or deferred biodiesel production in certain plants due to the consumption tax issue, traffic controls pursuant to government directives and the relocation of a production facility in 2009 and 2010.
Although the consumption tax issue has been resolved with the issuance of Caishui 118, as a result of increasingly high raw material input costs in 2011, the Company is currently evaluating the profitability of each of its biodiesel plants. The Company will evaluate the appropriateness of continuing, commencing or resuming production of biodiesel at each of its biodiesel plants and will continue, commence or resume production only if the biodiesel plant is able to operate on a positive cash flow basis in order to minimize the financial burden on the Company as a whole. Currently, only the new plant in Qin Dong Bei Industrial Park in Sichuan is operating on a trial run basis.
If these suspensions and deferrals had not occurred, the depreciation of the buildings and machinery and other amortization and salary paid to factory workers of these plants would have been classified as cost of revenues in corresponding periods.
Impairment loss on property, plant and equipment
As previously announced, the Company recognized an impairment loss of RMB951.0 million on certain property, plant and equipment located at Fujian Gushan, Hebei Gushan, Beijing Gushan, Shanghai Gushan, Chongqing Gushan, Hunan Gushan and Biomass, for the third quarter of 2010. The impairment loss represented the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of these assets. The Company has not recognized any such impairment loss since the third quarter of 2010.
Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration Liability
In November 2010, the Company acquired an initial 67% beneficial ownership interest in Jin Xin through a series of transactions in exchange for up to 24 million of its newly issued ordinary shares which are subject to an earn-out arrangement whereby 6 million ordinary shares were delivered to the selling shareholder at the closing of the transactions, while the remaining 18 million ordinary shares were placed into escrow (“Jin Xin Contingent Consideration Shares”) to be released in stages upon the determination of Jin Xin’s net income under U.S. GAAP for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the three years ending December 31, 2012.
In August 2011, the Company acquired a 75% beneficial ownership interest in Xiangbei through a series of transactions in exchange for (i) RMB30,000,000 in cash, (ii) up to 20,000,000 newly issued ordinary shares of the Company, and (iii) up to a 14.17% interest in Engen Investment Limited, a direct, 75%-owned British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) subsidiary of Gushan, subject to adjustment pursuant to an earn-out arrangement. Items (ii) and (iii) above are collectively also referred to as “Xiangbei Contingent Consideration Shares”, and together with the Jin Xin Contingent Consideration Shares, the “Contingent Consideration Shares. The Xiangbei Contingent Consideration Shares are subject to an earn-out arrangement whereby 20,000,000 million ordinary shares of the Company and 14.17% new shares of Engen will be issued in stages upon the determination of Xiangbei’s net income under U.S. GAAP for the years ending December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013.

Table of Contents
Under U.S. GAAP, the Contingent Consideration Shares should be classified as a liability and stated at their fair value at the acquisition date and each reporting date. The subsequent change in the fair value of the Contingent Consideration Shares at each reporting date would be recognized in our statement of operations.
The Company recognized an increase in fair value of RMB2.4 million for the second quarter of 2011 and a decrease in fair value of RMB0.1 million (less than US$0.1 million) for the third quarter of 2011. The increase in the fair value of the Contingent Consideration Shares in the second quarter of 2011 was mainly due to the release of 6 million ordinary shares from escrow to the selling shareholder of Jin Xin, but the increase was partly offset by a decrease caused by a further decrease in the market price of the Company’s ADSs and a further decrease in the estimated probability-weighted number of ordinary shares to be further issued. The decrease in the fair value of the Contingent Consideration Shares in the third quarter of 2011 was mainly due to the change in market price of the Company’s ADSs and discount rates in calculating the fair value of the liabilities.
Other Operating Income
Other operating income for the third quarter of 2011 represented a compensation of RMB5.2 million (US$0.8 million) from the supplier of castor beans in Sichuan as a result of the cancellation of the supply contract of castor beans signed with Sichuan Gushan.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) primarily consists of interest income, interest expenses, foreign currency exchange gain (loss), net and other income (expense), net. Interest income for the third quarter of 2011 amounted to RMB12,000 (less than US$0.1 million). Interest expenses for the third quarter of 2011 amounted to RMB2.5 million (US$0.4 million) mainly incurred by Jin Xin in respect of short term loans. Foreign currency exchange loss for the third quarter of 2011 amounted to RMB3,000 (less than US$0.1 million). Other income (expenses), net for the third quarter of 2011 included, among others, income from the Company’s depositary bank, a provision for business tax on intercompany advances among companies in China, VAT refunds, government subsidy income, a loss which resulted from copper futures contracts and compensation from a supplier of castor beans in Sichuan. Starting from the first quarter of 2011, Jin Xin sought to diversify risks associated with the market prices for copper by using standard futures contracts of copper traded on the Shanghai Futures Exchange. From investing in such copper futures contracts, Jin Xin incurred a loss of RMB1.1 million (less than US$0.2 million) in the third quarter of 2011 and a loss of RMB0.4 million in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in other income (expense), net for the third quarter of 2011 was mainly VAT refunds and government subsidy income totaling RMB3.2 million received by Jin Xin and Xiangbei.
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)
Income tax benefit (expense) primarily consisted of corporate income tax (“CIT”), a provision for dividend withholding tax and other overseas withholding tax.
CIT for the third quarter of 2011 amounted to RMB1.1 million (US$0.2 million), as compared to nil for the third quarter of 2010 and RMB1.8 million for the second quarter of 2011.
According to the CIT law, which came into effect from January 1, 2008, and relevant regulations promulgated thereunder, PRC-resident enterprises are levied withholding tax at a rate of 10% on dividends to their non-PRC-resident corporate investors for earnings accumulated beginning on January 1, 2008. Undistributed earnings generated prior to January 1, 2008 are exempt from such withholding tax. Under the Arrangement between the Mainland of China and Hong Kong Special Administration Region for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income (the “Mainland China/HKSAR DTA”) and Guoshuihan [2009] No. 601 on“How to understand and recognize the “Beneficial Owner” in Double Taxation Agreements” (“Circular 601”), a qualified Hong Kong tax resident which is the “beneficial owner” and holds 25% or more of the equity interest in a PRC resident enterprise is entitled to a reduced withholding tax rate of 5%. Pursuant to Circular 601, a beneficial owner under a tax treaty is not purely determined by its place of legal registration but also by other factors which depend on specific facts and circumstances, and significant judgment may be involved.
Although the Company intends to apply for the reduced withholding tax rate of 5% in the future when dividends for earnings accumulated from January 1, 2008 by its PRC operating subsidiaries are wired out of China, the Company made a 10% provision on such undistributed earnings for such withholding tax. If the local SATs approve a reduced withholding tax rate of 5% when such dividends are actually wired out of China, any excess provision will be reversed in subsequent financial statements.
In respect of its biodiesel business, the Company reduced the provision for withholding tax by RMB0.3 million (less than US$0.1 million) for the third quarter of 2011, RMB16.7 million for the third quarter of 2010 and RMB0.3 million for the second quarter of 2011. The decrease was due to the losses incurred in the biodiesel business. In respect of its recycled copper products business, the Company made a provision for withholding tax of RMB0.7 million (US$0.1 million) and RMB0.5 million for the third quarter and the second quarter of 2011, respectively. Other overseas withholding tax amounted to RMB0.3 million (less than US$0.1 million), RMB0.3 million and RMB0.3 million for the third quarter of 2011, the third quarter of 2010 and the second quarter of 2011, respectively.

Of the total current assets, the Company had RMB88.1 million (US$13.8 million) in cash, represented by RMB50.8 million, HK$1.6 million and US$4,000 deposited in licensed commercial banks in China and HK$0.5 million and US$5.5 million deposited in licensed commercial banks in Hong Kong.
Recent Events
Acquisition of Taiyue
On December 6, 2011, the Company acquired control of Guangzhou Taiyue Communications Cable Co. Ltd. (“Taiyue”), a PRC-based company in Guangdong province that is engaged in the manufacture and sale of copper cables for use in communication and personal computing industries. Currently, Taiyue has a daily production capacity of approximately 24 tons of communication cables and sells its products mainly to overseas customers and the remaining small portion to customers in various provinces in China.
Business Outlook for Fiscal Year 2011
During the third quarter of 2011,the Company’s average biodiesel selling prices continued to improve over the previous quarter as demand for diesel in China continued its recovery in conjunction with the economic recovery in China and globally. Going forward, the Company expects this trend to continue so long as the global economy and China’s economy continue to improve. During the third quarter of 2011, there were signs that inflationary pressures in China were starting to ease and this trend has continued to date. As a result, the rate of increase in the Company’s raw material input costs during the third quarter of 2011 have fallen and the costs themselves appear to be stabilizing. However, during the third quarter, local governments started to clamp down on collectors of used cooking oil to prevent them from allegedly selling used cooking oil to processors who illegally process and resell the used cooking oil as virgin edible oil for public consumption. This action by the local governments has forced many used cooking oil collectors, including our suppliers, to suspend their operations. Consequently, there was a shortage in supply of raw materials and the Company’s biodiesel production was substantially reduced during the third quarter. Although this shortage in raw materials has continued to date, the Company believes that this situation cannot continue in the long run as used cooking oil would ultimately need to be properly processed. The Company also believes that when this shortage of raw materials ends, the Company will be a beneficiary as the Company’s biodiesel business represents a legitimate channel for the proper processing of used cooking oil. The Company will be closely monitoring the raw materials situation and will evaluate the appropriateness of increasing biodiesel production levels only if its plants are able to operate on a positive cash flow basis.
Meanwhile, the Company’s recycled copper products business continued to contribute positively to the Company’s overall financial performance and this trend is expected to continue. The Company believes that the acquisition of Taiyue will also provide additional positive contribution. The Company continues to explore the possibility of acquiring more businesses in the recycled copper products industry that will complement its existing businesses and strengthen its overall recycled copper products business portfolio.

Safe Harbor Statement
This announcement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “may,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “target,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “potential,” “continue,” and other similar statements. Statements other than statements of historical facts in this announcement are forward-looking statements, including but not limited to, the Company’s expectations regarding the expansion of its production capacities, its future business development, and its beliefs regarding its production output. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based on current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about the Company and the industry. Important risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from expectations include but are not limited to the effect of any applicable government policy, law or regulation, of natural disasters, and of intensifying competition in the biodiesel and alternative energy industries, the availability of suitable raw materials to the Company, and the risks set forth in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including on Form 20-F. The Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law. Although the Company believes that the expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, it cannot assure you that its expectations will turn out to be correct, and investors are cautioned that actual results may differ materially from the anticipated results.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Gushan’s consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Gushan uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net loss excluding share-based compensation, impairment loss and loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, change in fair value of contingent consideration liability (the portion to be borne by the Company), provision for consumption tax and the tax effect thereof (“non-GAAP net loss”), basic and diluted net loss per ADS excluding share-based compensation, impairment loss of property, plant and equipment, change in fair value of contingent consideration liability (the portion to be borne by the Company), provision for consumption tax and the tax effect thereof (“basic and diluted non-GAAP net loss per ADS”). The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the table captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures” set forth at the end of this release.
Gushan believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation, impairment loss and loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, change in fair value of contingent consideration liability (the portion to be borne by the Company), provision for consumption tax and the tax effect thereof that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. Gushan believes that both management and investors benefit from these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. Gushan computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. Gushan believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation of using non-GAAP net loss and basic and diluted non-GAAP net loss per ADS is that these non-GAAP measures exclude share-based compensation, impairment loss and loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, change in fair value of contingent consideration liability (the portion to be borne by the Company), provision for consumption tax and the tax effect thereof, that have been and may continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in its business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP financial measures.
