Item 7.01 – Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 3, 2017, the Company held a webcast conference call with analysts and investors, during which management discussed the Company’s consolidated financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 and certain other matters. During the webcast, in response to a question management disclosed a non-GAAP measure of the Company’s diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the first quarter of 2017 that excluded the after-tax impact of a $12.5 million gain recorded as a result of the settlement of the Company’s litigation against Ancestry.com DNA, LLC (“Ancestry”) and its contract manufacturer. While the disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure can help investors better understand the impact of the Ancestry settlement on the Company’s financial performance for the first quarter of 2017, the Company does not consider such a measure to be a substitute for, or superior to, basic or diluted EPS as determined in accordance with GAAP.

The following table reconciles the Company’s GAAP basic and diluted EPS to the non-GAAP basic and diluted EPS for the first quarter of 2017:
