NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding the company's results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the company also discusses, in its earnings press release and earnings presentation materials, the following Non-GAAP information which management believes provides useful information to investors. Divested Printing Systems Division Management presents certain financial results excluding revenue related to the companys Printing Systems Division (PSD) business. In June 2007, the company divested 51 percent of its shares in a wholly-owned subsidiary, InfoPrint Solutions, that was based on PSD. Given this divestiture, management believes that presenting certain financial information without PSD revenue is more representative of the Systems and Technology segments revenue performance and provides additional insight into, and clarifies the basis for, historical and/or future performance, which may be more useful for investors. -S8- |
NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS Constant Currency Management refers to growth rates at constant currency or adjusting for currency so that the business results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of the company's business performance. Generally, when the dollar either strengthens or weakens against other currencies, the growth at constant currency rates or adjusting for currency will be higher or lower than growth reported at actual exchange rates. Cash Flow Management includes a presentation of both cash flow from operations and free cash flow that exclude the effect of Global Financing Receivables. For a financing business, increasing receivables is the basis for growth. Receivables are viewed as an investment and an income-producing asset. Therefore, management presents financing receivables as an investing activity. Managements view is that this presentation gives the investor the best perspective of cash available for new investment or for distribution to shareholders. -S9- |
NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS Interest Expense Management presents certain financial results excluding the effects of a higher level of interest expense as a result of the companys Accelerated Share Repurchase executed in the second quarter of 2007. Given its unique nature, management believes that presenting certain financial information without this higher level of interest expense is more representative of the company's operational performance and provides additional insight into, and clarifies the basis for, historical and/or future performance, which may be more useful for investors. -S10- |
