NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The non-GAAP financial measures in the text of this press release and accompanying non-GAAP supplemental information represent financial measures used by Salary.com's management to evaluate the operating performance of the Company and to conduct its business operations. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed in the press release relate to the Company's net income and operating expenses and exclude amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and restructuring charges. This press release also discusses operating cash flows excluding non-recurring severance costs as well. By excluding these items and by providing information on the Company's bookings in addition to its GAAP revenues, Salary.com can evaluate its operations and can compare its results on a more consistent basis to the results of other companies in the industry. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's financial and operational performance and in assisting investors in comparing the Company's financial performance to those of other companies in the Company's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation from our GAAP results of operations. Pursuant to the requirements of the SEC rules under Regulation G, a detailed reconciliation between the Company's GAAP and non-GAAP financial results is provided in this press release and investors are advised to carefully review and consider this information as well as the GAAP financial results that are disclosed in the Company's SEC filings.
