Non-GAAP Measures Core Diluted EPS, Core ROAE, Core ROAA, tangible common stockholders’ equity and efficiency ratio are each non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation. These non-GAAP financial measures adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude for net income, intangible assets, net gains/losses for financial assets and liabilities, gains/losses on sale of securities, prepayment penalties on borrowings, gain on sale of buildings and certain non-recurring items, which our management uses when evaluating net income from our business, capital utilization and adequacy. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is set forth in the Appendix to this presentation on pages 32 - 34. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful for both investors and management to understand the effects of certain non-interest items and provide an alternative view of the Company's performance over time and in comparison to the Company's competitors. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's earnings and capital over time and in comparison to its competitors. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for their comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported in our financial statements under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
