to exclude certain costs, expenses, gains and losses we believe
appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial
performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to
our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both

underlying operational results and trends and our marketplace performance.
In addition, these adjusted non-GAAP results are among the information
management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future
