Quantenna Communications, Inc.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to GAAP reporting, Quantenna provides information regarding income, gross margin and operating expenses on a non-GAAP basis. This non-GAAP information excludes stock-based compensation expense, which the Company’s management believes is not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance. These non-GAAP measures are used by the Company’s management for purposes of evaluating the underlying operating performance of the Company, establishing internal budgets, comparing performance with internal forecasts and goals, strategic planning, benchmarking against other companies, and to provide a more consistent basis of comparison and to enable more meaningful period to period comparisons. These non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as a substitute for, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial data is included in the supplemental financial tables included in this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Financial Commentary contains forward-looking statements based on Quantenna’s current expectations, including statements regarding Quantenna’s financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2016 ended January 1, 2017, expected future business and financial performance, growth opportunities, product technologies and customer relationships. The words "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "plan," "project," "will" and similar phrases as they relate to Quantenna are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the current views and assumptions of Quantenna and are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations.
