Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates on Revenue Revenue from international operations has historically been an important contributor to Akamai s total revenue. Consequently, Akamai s revenue results have been impacted, and management expects they will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, when the local currencies of Akamai s foreign subsidiaries weaken, consolidated results stated in U.S. dollars are negatively impacted. Because exchange rates are an meaningful factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, management believes the presentation of the impact of foreign currency exchanges rates on revenue enhances the understanding of revenue results and evaluation of its performance in comparison to prior periods. The information presented is calculated by translating current period results using the same average foreign currency exchange rates per month from the comparative period. Non-GAAP Tax Rate GAAP tax rate excluding the tax effect of non-gaap adjustments and certain discrete tax items. Operational free cash flow Adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures, excluding stock-based compensation. Revenue, adjusted for ADS divestiture Revenue excluding the impact of Akamai's Advertising Decision Solutions (ADS) divestiture.
