1 For the period ended May 31, 2014, represents acceleration of equity awards and other costs associated with the retirement of our former Chairman and CEO, a nonrecurring charge associated with our retained interest in Brazil, an adjustment to the costs associated with the debt refinancing we completed in February 2014, non-cash losses from the retirement of fixed assets and charges related to employee termination benefits. For the prior period, represents one-time charges primarily related to employee termination benefits and certain contract settlement and related costs.

2Represents adjustments to cost of service to exclude acquisition intangible amortization expense from net income and the related income tax benefit.

We supplemented our reporting of income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting income and the related earnings per share for the three months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding amounts related to the processing system intrusion, acquisition intangible amortization, acceleration of equity awards and other costs associated with the retirement of our former Chairman and CEO, a nonrecurring charge associated with our retained interest in Brazil, non-cash losses from the retirement of fixed assets, employee termination benefits and an adjustment to the costs associated with the debt refinancing. We exclude these charges in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of income and earnings per share on a cash earnings basis reflect management's judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

1 Represents insurance proceeds associated with processing system intrusion charges incurred in FY 2012.
 
2 For the year ended May 31, 2014, represents acceleration of equity awards and other costs associated with the retirement of our former Chairman and CEO, a credit related to the sale of an interest in our Brazil business and a subsequent charge associated with our retained interest, cost associated with the debt refinancing we completed in February 2014, non-cash losses from the retirement of fixed assets, charges related to employee termination benefits and HSBC's share of dividends declared. For the prior year, represents HSBC's share of GPAP dividends declared, one-time charges primarily related to employee termination benefits and certain contract settlement and related costs.

3 Represents adjustments to cost of service to exclude acquisition intangible amortization expense from net income and the related income tax benefit.

We supplemented our reporting of income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting income and the related earnings per share for the years ended May 31, 2014 and 2013 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding amounts related to the processing system intrusion, acquisition intangible amortization, acceleration of equity awards and other costs associated with the retirement of our former Chairman and CEO, a nonrecurring charge associated with our retained interest in Brazil, non-cash losses from the retirement of fixed assets, employee termination benefits and resolution of a contract related contingency and an adjustment to the costs associated with the debt refinancing. In the twelve months ended May 2013, we also adjusted the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to include HSBC's share of GPAP net income. We exclude these charges in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of income and earnings per share on a cash earnings basis reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
1 Fiscal 2015 reflects $0.72 of acquisition-related intangibles amortization and $0.04 of one-time charges.
