statements. All statements other than statements of historical
facts contained in this press release, including statements
regarding our future results of operations and financial position,
business strategy and plans, and our objectives for future
operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,”

“intend,” “may,” “might,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “possible,”
“potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and
similar expressions that convey uncertainty of future events or
outcomes are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but
the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not
forward-looking.
The forward-looking statements contained in this
press release are based on our current expectations and beliefs
concerning future developments and their potential effects on us.
Future developments affecting us may not be those that we have
anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of
risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and
other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to
be materially different from those expressed or implied by these
forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include,
but are not limited to, those factors described under the heading
“Risk Factors” in our filings with the Securities and Exchange

8-K and other filings that we make with the SEC from time to time.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or
should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may
vary in material respects from those projected in these
forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or
revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required
under applicable securities laws. These risks and others described
under “Risk Factors” in our SEC filings may not be exhaustive.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on
circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We caution
you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and that our actual results of operations, financial
condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which
we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by
the forward-looking statements contained in this press release. In
addition, even if our results or operations, financial condition
and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate
are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in
this press release, those results or developments may not be
indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and
Reconciliation
Our non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted
gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") (our
"non-GAAP financial measures"). Our non-GAAP financial measures
should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or
superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
They are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP
and should not be considered as alternatives to revenue or net
loss, as applicable, or any other performance measures derived in
accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly
titled measures of other businesses. Our non-GAAP financial
measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our
operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations
include: (i) non-cash compensation is and will remain a key element
of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although
we exclude it as an expense when evaluating its ongoing operating
performance for a particular period, (ii) our non-GAAP financial
measures do not reflect the impact of certain charges resulting
from matters we consider not to be indicative of ongoing
operations, and (iii) other companies in our industry may calculate
our non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting
their usefulness as comparative measures.
We compensate for these limitations to our
non-GAAP financial measures by relying primarily on our GAAP
results and using our non-GAAP financial measures only for
supplemental purposes. Our non-GAAP financial measures include
adjustments for items that may not occur in future periods.
However, we believe these adjustments are appropriate because the
amounts recognized can vary significantly from period to period, do
not directly relate to the ongoing operations of our business and
complicate comparisons of our internal operating results and
operating results of other peer companies over time. Each of the
normal recurring adjustments and other adjustments described in
this paragraph help management with a measure of our operating
performance over time by removing items that are not related to
day-to-day operations or are non-cash expenses.
