Non-GAAP Financial Measures RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE Neustar reports its results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). In this section, Neustar is also providing certain non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations from the most directly comparable GAAP measure. These non- GAAP financial measures have limitations and may not be comparable with similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These reconciliations should be carefully evaluated. Prior disclosures of non-GAAP figures may not exclude the same items and as such should not be used for comparison purposes. Management believes that these measures enhance investors’ understanding of the company’s financial performance and the comparability of the company’s operating results to prior periods, as well as against the performance of other companies.
