### ANNEX A
We consider these financial measures valuable for assessing our operating performance, as they exclude the impact of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our current period operating performance. While it is likely that one or more of the excluded items will occur in future periods, the amounts recognized may vary significantly. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to complement, not replace, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Therefore, they should not be viewed as a substitute for results reported in accordance with GAAP.
