Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

Ditech Networks provides all information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), but it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results and in particular, making comparisons to similar companies, may be enhanced by providing additional measures used by management to assess operating results. Internally, Ditech Networks uses calculations of: (i) non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, which represents gross profit and gross margin excluding the effect of stock-based compensation expense and severance and restructuring costs; (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, which represent operating expenses excluding the effect of stock-based compensation expense and severance and restructuring costs and, in the case of total operating expenses, expense related to amortization of intangible assets; (iii) non-GAAP pre-tax loss and non-GAAP net loss, which represents pre-tax loss and net loss excluding the effect of stock-based compensation expense, severance and restructuring costs and expense related to the amortization of intangible assets; and (iv) non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share, which represents basic and diluted net loss per share excluding the effect of stock-based compensation expense, severance and restructuring costs and expense related to the amortization of intangible assets. The non-GAAP net loss and net loss per share financial measures also exclude the tax effects of the excluded amounts.

 

The non-GAAP financial measures contained in this release are included with the intention of providing investors additional understanding of Ditech Networks’ operational results and trends, but should only be used in conjunction with results reported in accordance with GAAP.

 



 

Ditech Networks believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is warranted for several reasons:

 

1) Such non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional analytical tool for understanding Ditech Networks’ financial performance by excluding the impact of items which may obscure trends in the core operating performance of the business;

 

2) Since Ditech Networks has historically reported non-GAAP results to the investment community, Ditech Networks believes the inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency and enhances investors’ ability to compare Ditech Networks’ performance across financial reporting periods;

 

3) These non-GAAP financial measures are employed by Ditech Networks’ management in its own evaluation of performance and are utilized in financial and operational decision making processes, such as budget planning and forecasting;

 

4) These non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons to the operating results of other companies in Ditech Networks’ industry, which use similar financial measures to supplement their GAAP results, thus enhancing the perspective of investors who wish to utilize such comparisons in their analysis of Ditech Networks’ performance.

 

As stated above, Ditech Networks presents non-GAAP financial measures because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Ditech Networks’ GAAP results. In the future, Ditech Networks expects to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above and expects to continue reporting non-GAAP financial measures excluding such items. Some of the limitations in relying on non-GAAP financial measures are:

 

·

 

Ditech Networks’ stock option and stock purchase plans are important components of incentive compensation arrangements and will be reflected as expenses in Ditech Networks’ GAAP results for the foreseeable future.

 

 

 

·

 

Amortization of intangibles, though not directly affecting Ditech Networks’ current cash position, represents the loss in value as the technology in Ditech Networks’ industry evolves, is advanced or is replaced over time. The expense associated with this loss in value is not included in the non-GAAP net income (loss) presentation and therefore does not reflect the full economic effect of the ongoing cost of maintaining Ditech Networks’ current technological position in the company’s competitive industry which is addressed through the company’s research and development program.

 

 

 

·

 

Restructuring charges reflect a real cost of doing business and reacting to market forces, and by eliminating these charges the non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect these costs of doing business.

 

 

 

·

 

Other companies, including other companies in Ditech Networks’ industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
