Non-GAAP Financial Measures We have presented supplemental non-GAAP financial measures as part of this earnings release. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Core net income and core earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items, specifically amortization of intangible assets, impairment losses on equity investments, equity-based compensation, acquisition and integration-related expenses (including acquisition-related earn-outs), restructuring related costs, non-cash pension expenses, non-core charges associated with our convertible notes and other non-core or non-recurring gains or losses that arise from time to time. Non-core charges associated with our convertible notes consist of non-cash interest expense. Acquisition and integration-related expenses include legal and professional fees and other direct transaction costs associated with our business and asset acquisitions, costs associated with integrating acquired businesses, including costs for transitional employees or services, integration related professional services costs and other incremental charges we incur as a direct result of our acquisition and integration efforts. Periodically, such as in periods that include significant foreign currency volatility, we present certain metrics on a 'constant currency' basis, to show the impact of period to period results normalized for the impact of foreign currency rate changes. We calculate constant currency information by translating prior period financial results using current period foreign exchange rates. We believe that these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for an evaluation of the company with a focus on the performance of its core operations, including more meaningful comparisons of financial results to historical periods and to the financial results of less acquisitive peer and competitor companies. Our executive management team uses these same non-GAAP financial measures internally to assess the ongoing performance of the company. Additionally, the same non-GAAP information is used for planning purposes, including the preparation of operating budgets and in communications with our board of directors with respect to our core financial performance. Since this information is not a GAAP measurement of financial performance, there are material limitations to its usefulness on a stand-alone basis, including the lack of comparability of this presentation to the GAAP financial results of other companies. In computing diluted core earnings per share, we exclude the effect of shares issuable under our convertible notes to the extent that any such dilution would be offset by our note hedges; the note hedges would be considered an anti-dilutive security under GAAP. A reconciliation of our GAAP results to our non-GAAP results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended March 31, March 31, 2015 2014 2015 2014 --------------------------------------------- (in thousands) (in thousands) GAAP net loss $ (7,830) $ (4,310) $ (13,060) $ (17,623) Amortization of intangible assets 8,002 4,784 22,186 18,663 Equity-based compensation 7,134 6,225 19,563 16,792 Acquisition and 846 1,062 2,553 4,635 integration-related expenses Restructuring expenses 1,074 1,015 1,346 1,060 Non-cash pension expense 21 87 42 238 Non-cash interest expense 3,061 2,871 9,038 8,479 Other non-core expense 145 -- 145 -- Other income tax expense -- 978 -- -- --------------------------------------------- Core net income $ 12,453 $ 12,712 $ 41,813 $ 32,244 ============================================= GAAP diluted shares 38,121 38,687 38,062 37,889 Impact of note hedges -- (866) -- (440) --------------------------------------------- Core diluted shares 38,121 37,821 38,062 37,449 ============================================= The table below is a comparative summary of our total revenues and our subscription and transaction revenues shown with a constant currency growth rate: Three Months Ended % Increase March 31, Constant 2015 2014 GAAP Rates (1) ---------------------------------------- (in thousands) Total Revenues $ 81,951 $ 78,252 5% 9% Subscription and Transaction Revenues 42,926 35,095 22% 25% (1)Constant currency information compares results between periods assuming exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period.
