The use of non-GAAP financial measures:
To supplement its consolidated financial statements
presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") in the
United States, Hurray! uses non-GAAP measures of operating
results and net
income, including in this press release earnings before
interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization, and before stock-based
compensation expense
("adjusted EBITDA"), which are adjusted from
results based on GAAP to exclude
certain expenses. Hurray!'s management believes the use of
these non-GAAP
financial measures provide useful information to both
management and investors
by excluding certain expenses that are not related to the
Company's
operations. These non-GAAP financial measures also
facilitate management's
internal comparisons to Hurray!'s historical performance
and our competitors'
operating results. Hurray! believes these non-GAAP
financial measures are
useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency
with respect to
supplemental information used by management in its
financial and operational
decision making. The presentation of this additional
financial information is
not intended to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the
financial information prepared and presented in accordance
with GAAP. Please
see below financial table for a reconciliation of adjusted
EBITDA.
