Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 11, 2006, Adaptec, Inc. announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. A copy of Adaptec’s press release announcing these financial results is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The non-GAAP financial measures provided in the attached press release are provided to enhance the user’s overall understanding of our current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Specifically, we believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses, gains and losses that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. In addition, since we have historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, we believe the inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting. Further, these non-GAAP results are one of the primary indicators management uses for assessing our performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods. The non-GAAP information is presented using consistent methodology from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year. These measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Consistent with our historical practice, the non-GAAP financial measures included in the attached press release have been reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
The information in this report shall not be treated as “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except as expressly stated by specific reference in such filing.
