Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Non-GAAP operating income, net income and EPS. 3PAR defines non-GAAP operating income and net income as operating loss and net loss plus stock-based compensation expenses. 3PAR defines non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP net loss divided by the weighted average basic and diluted shares outstanding. 3PAR's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding 3PAR's performance by excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expenses. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use under FAS 123R, 3PAR's management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures allows investors to compare these results with those of other companies, as well as providing management with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating 3PAR's operating results (excluding the impact of these non-cash charges) over different periods of time.
There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP operating income, net income and EPS versus operating income (loss), net income (loss) and EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP. First, these non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expenses that are recurring. Stock-based expenses have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in 3PAR's business. Second, stock-based awards are an important part of 3PAR's employees' compensation and impact their performance. Third, the components of the costs that 3PAR excludes in its calculation of non-GAAP net income may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their results of operations. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures and evaluating these non-GAAP financial measures together with their most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accompanying tables have more details on these non-GAAP financial measures, including reconciliations between these financial measures and their most directly comparable GAAP equivalents.
