The historical financial results of the PX business for periods prior to

consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations.
Accordingly, this financial outlook for 2018 is for continuing

A conference call with
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release
contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net
income, non-GAAP operating income, adjusted EBITDA from continuing
operations, and adjusted EBITDA, which are used by management in
analyzing the Company’s financial results and ongoing operational
performance.
In order to better assess the Company’s financial results, management
believes that net income before interest, income taxes, share-based
compensation, depreciation and amortization, and changes in fair value
of cost method investments (“adjusted EBITDA”) is a useful measure for
evaluating the operating performance of the Company because adjusted
EBITDA reflects net income adjusted for certain non-cash and
non-operating items. Effective
In recent years, the Company has acquired businesses whose net tangible assets include deferred revenue. In accordance with GAAP reporting requirements, following the completion of any such acquisition, the Company may record a write-down of deferred revenue to fair value as defined by GAAP. If the Company is required to record a write-down of deferred revenue, it may result in lower recognized revenue, operating income, and net income in subsequent periods.
In connection therewith, this release presents below non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income, which in each case reflects the corresponding GAAP figures adjusted to exclude the impact of the deferred revenue write-down associated with fair value accounting for acquired businesses as referenced above. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures assists investors in understanding the Company’s performance between periods, excluding the impact of this deferred revenue write-down, and provides a useful measure of the ongoing performance of the Company. Both on a quarterly and year-to-date basis, the revenue for any acquired business is deferred and typically recognized over a one-to-two year period following the completion of an acquisition, so our GAAP revenues for this one-to-two year period will not reflect the full amount of revenues that would have been reported if the acquired deferred revenue had not been written down to fair value.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of our GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures, which are set forth below in this release.
