RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES Page 14 The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. In addition, we consider adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, adjusted funded orders and core business revenue to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operat ing performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives. Adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow, adjusted funded orders and core business revenue, however, are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share or net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these items are provided below. “Adjusted revenue” is defined as revenue adjusted to exclude historical revenue from the Tethered Aerostat Radar System (TARS) program which was retained by our former parent in connection with the Spin-off. “Adjusted operating income” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude income tax expense (benefit), interest income (expense), TARS program operating income (loss), pretax impact of separation costs incurred to become a public company, and tax indemnifications. “Adjusted operating margin” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude income tax expense (benefit), interest income (expense), TARS program operating income (loss), pretax impact of separation costs incurred to become a public company, and tax indemnifications divided by adjusted revenue. “Adjusted net income” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude TARS program operating income (loss), separation costs incurred to become a public company, and net settlement of uncertain tax positions, net of taxes. “Adjusted diluted earnings per share” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude TARS program operating income (loss), separation costs incurred to become a public company, and net settlement of uncertain tax positions, net of taxes, divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. “Free cash flow” is defined as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. “Adjusted funded orders” is defined as funded orders adjusted to exclude the TARS program orders. “Core business revenue” is defined as adjusted revenue less revenue from Afghanistan programs.
