Non-GAAP MeasuresIn this presentation, management provides the following non-GAAP performance measures:Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”);Free Cash Flow less Product Development Spending;Adjusted Revenue;Adjusted Operating Income and margin;Adjusted Contribution to Profit (“Adjusted CTP”) and margin;Adjusted EBITDA;Organic revenue; andResults on a constant currency (“CC”) basis.Management believes non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude the impact of restructuring charges and credits and other items, provide supplementary information to support analyzing operating results and earnings and are commonly used by shareholders to measure our performance. Free Cash Flow less Product Development Spending helps assess our ability over the long term to create value for our shareholders. Results on a constant currency basis removes distortion from the effects of foreign currency movements to provide better comparability of our business trends from period to period. We measure our performance before the impact of foreign currency (or at “constant currency” “CC”), which means that we apply the same foreign currency exchange rates for the current and equivalent prior period.
