(4) The Peer Group TSR set forth in this table utilizes the S&P 500 Information Technology Index, which we also utilize in the stock performance graph required by Item 201(e) of Regulation S-K included in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The comparison assumes $100 was invested for the period starting October 31, 2020, through the end of the listed year in the Company and in the S&P 500 Information Technology Index, respectively. Historical stock performance is not intended to forecast nor be indicative of the future stock performance of our common stock.

(5) On September 30, 2024, we completed the sale of our Software Integrity Group. Net Income and Revenue are presented on a continuing operations basis for fiscal 2022, 2023 and 2024, which excludes the results of the Software Integrity Group during those fiscal years. Our financial statements for fiscal 2021 were not revised to reflect the sale of the Software Integrity Group and therefore Net Income and Revenue for fiscal 2021 include the results of the Software Integrity Group.

(6) We determined Revenue, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, to be our Company-Selected Measure as we deem it to be the most important financial performance measure used to link Company performance to Compensation Actually Paid to our PEOs and Non-PEO NEOs in 2024.
