Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes, the income tax effect of stock-based compensation expense, and a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Gigamon considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the Company's operating performance, excluding unusual events or factors that do not directly affect what we consider to be our core operating performance, and the company’s management uses them for that purpose. In addition, investors often use similar measures to evaluate the operating performance of a company. The Company presents Non-GAAP financial measures for supplemental informational purposes only to provide additional information in understanding the company’s operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Please see the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures attached to this release.
During the conference call to discuss these financial results, Gigamon expects to give guidance for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 on a non-GAAP basis. Gigamon does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections with respect to the stock-based compensation and related payroll taxes, income tax effect of stock-





based compensation expense and valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, which the Company excludes from these non-GAAP measures. In particular, stock-based compensation and related taxes are impacted by future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of Gigamon’s common stock, all of which is difficult to predict and subject to constant change. The actual amounts of these excluded items will have a significant impact on Gigamon’s GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share and GAAP tax provision. Accordingly, reconciliations of Gigamon’s forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort.
Legal Notice Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Forward-looking statements in this press release include, but are not limited to, our belief that our security-enabling, network visibility platform is an essential component of modern IT infrastructure. Our expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include our ability to continue to deliver and improve our products and successfully develop new products; customer acceptance and purchase of our existing products and new products; our ability to retain existing customers and generate new customers; the market for network traffic visibility solutions not continuing to develop; competition from other products and services; and general market, political, economic and business conditions.  The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 26, 2015 and our most recently available Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
