Non-GAAP net income

Blucora’s Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net income determined in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), excluding the effects of discontinued operations (which includes loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, and loss on sale of discontinued operations, net of taxes), income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, and other loss (income), net (which includes such items as interest expense, interest income, gains or losses on derivative instruments, foreign currency gains or losses, gains or losses from the disposal of assets, adjustments to the fair values of contingent liabilities related to business combinations, gains on resolution of contingencies, and litigation settlements), as detailed above. Blucora’s management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance. Blucora uses this non-GAAP financial measure for internal management and compensation purposes, when publicly providing guidance on possible future results, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Blucora believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a common measure used by investors and analysts to evaluate its performance, that it provides a more complete understanding of the results of operations and trends affecting the Company’s business when viewed together with GAAP results, and that management and investors benefit from referring to this non-GAAP financial measure. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, GAAP net income. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently and, therefore, Blucora’s Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
