Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures It is important to recognize that in certain instances in this presentation we have adjusted actual financial results, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), for certain items, including special items (which are defined as items not related to the ongoing, underlying business or which in our view distort comparability of results). We have also provided earnings estimates in terms of adjusted earnings, excluding special items and transaction-related expenses. We believe that the resulting adjusted, non-GAAP information provides a picture of results that is comparable among periods since it excludes the impact of items, the size and nature of which can make period to period comparisons difficult and potentially confusing. However, investors should note that non-GAAP measures involve judgments by management. We note that such information is not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP information. A reconciliation of adjusted information to GAAP is included either on the slide where the information appears or in the appendix to this presentation. These slides are only intended to be reviewed in conjunction with the oral presentation to which they relate.
