Footnotes (A) Stock-based compensation. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of revenue and operating expenses, stock-based compensation consists of expenses for stock options, stock unit awards and purchase rights under our stock purchase plan. We exclude stock-based compensation expense from our non-gaap measures because some investors may view it as not reflective of our core operating performance as it is a non-cash expense. (B) Amortization of internally-developed software. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of revenue and operating expenses, amortization of internally-developed software reflects non-cash expense for software developed or obtained for internal use. We exclude these expenses from our non-gaap measures because we believe they are not indicative of our core operating performance. (C) Amortization of purchased intangibles. Included in our GAAP presentation of gross margin and operating expenses is amortization of purchased intangible assets. We believe amortization of acquisitionrelated intangible assets, such as amortization of costs associated with an acquired company s research and development efforts, trade names and customer relationships, are items arising from pre-acquisition activities and determined at the time of an acquisition. Although these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of purchased intangibles is a static expense and not typically affected by operations during any particular period. (D) Restructuring and other related costs. Included in our GAAP presentation, we incurred expenses related to our restructuring effort to better align our cost structure with current revenue levels. Restructuring and other expenses consist primarily of stock-based compensation related to the accelerated vesting of certain equity awards, employees' severance payments, related employee benefits, related legal fees, asset impairment charges and charges related to leases and other contract termination costs. These are one-time in nature costs that are not indicative of our core operating performance. (E) Amortization of contract acquisition costs - ASC 606 initial adoption. Upon adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ( ASC 606 ) using the modified retrospective approach, we capitalized approximately $3.3 million of previously expensed sales commissions from 2015, 2016 and 2017. Amortization of these amounts are included in our GAAP presentation as sales and marketing expense. We believe this non-cash amortization expense is not related to or indicative of our ongoing operating performance. (F) Impairment loss on investment securities. We liquidated our investment securities during the first half of 2018 to have sufficient cash on hand to repay our $150.0 million convertible notes due August 1, 2018. Based on our decision to sell these investment securities, we determined an other-than-temporary impairment occurred as of March 31, 2018 and recorded an impairment loss, which represented the difference between the investment securities' amortized cost basis and fair value. This charge is not related to or indicative of ongoing operating performance. (G) Gain on sale of cost basis equity investment. In 2013, we made an equity investment in a private company for $4.5 million, which represented less than 5% of the outstanding equity of the company. Based on unfavorable growth trends and declining financial performance of this private company, we determined that the investment was fully impaired and recorded a $2.3 million and $2.2 million impairment charge in the third and fourth quarters of 2016, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2017, we sold the investment for $2.1 million in cash and recorded the proceeds as a gain. This gain is not related to or indicative of our ongoing core operating performance. (H) Non-cash interest expense. Under GAAP, we recognize interest expense at the effective interest rate which includes interest costs related to the amortization of debt issuance costs and debt premiums or discounts. The difference between the effective interest rate and the contractual interest rate is excluded from our assessment of our operating performance because we believe this non-cash expense is not indicative of ongoing operating performance. We believe that the exclusion of the non-cash interest expense provides investors a view of our core operating performance. (I) Income tax effect on non-gaap adjustments as well as the impact of normalizing the effective income tax rate. This adjusts (i) the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of the non-gaap items A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and J on our non-gaap net income; and (ii) the income tax rate to a normalized effective tax rate of 26.5% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018 and 40.0% for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017, respectively. (J) Litigation reserve. The Company records a contingent liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable in accordance with accounting for contingencies. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has accrued a $3.8 million reserve relating to our potential liability for currently pending disputes. These reserves are one-time in nature charges that are not indicative of our core operating performance. 10
