34 / Definition of non-gaap measures This presentation contains non-generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) financial measures. Thales regards such non-gaap financial measures as relevant operating and financial performance indicators for the Group, as they allow non-operating and non-recurring items to be excluded. Thales definitions for such measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies or analysts. Organic: at constant scope and exchange rates. Book-to-Bill ratio: ratio of orders received to sales. EBIT: income from operations; plus the share of net income or loss of equity affiliates less: amortisation of intangible assets acquired (PPA). Emerging Markets: All countries in Middle East, Asia, Latin America and Africa Adjusted net income: net income, less the following elements, net of the corresponding tax effects: (i) amortisation of intangible assets acquired, (ii) disposal of assets, change in scope of consolidation and other, (iii) change in fair value of derivative foreign exchange instruments (recorded in "other financial results" in the consolidated accounts), (iv) actuarial gains or losses on long-term benefits (accounted within the "finance costs on pensions and employee benefits" in the consolidated accounts). Adjusted EPS: ratio of adjusted net income (as defined above) to average number of shares outstanding. Free Operating Cash Flow: net cash flow from operating activities, less: capital expenditures, less: deficit payments on pensions in the United Kingdom.
