Non-GAAP Measures

The GAAP measures shown in this release exclude various items detailed further below.

magicJack defines non-GAAP net income as GAAP net income excluding: share-based compensation, impairment of intangible asset, transaction related expenses, severance payments, provision for device returns, transition costs related to introduction of a new device, a reversal of unused price protection accrual, the net change to provision for bad debt expense, write-down of inventory component, a legal settlement, gain on investments, increase (decrease) in tax valuation allowance, foreign currency revaluations on tax assets and net uncertain tax positions.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with the financial information included in this press release. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Management believes that the presentation of non-GAAP results, when shown in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures, provides useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends related to the company's results of operations. Further, management believes that these non-GAAP measures improve management's and investors' ability to compare the company's financial performance with other companies in the technology industry. Because these items vary significantly between companies, it is useful to compare results excluding these amounts as identified below.
