These measures exclude the impact of certain amounts that management and the board do not consider part of core operating results13 - Non-GAAP measures have limitations: they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not reflect a comprehensive accounting system, and may not be completely comparable to other companies' measures15 -
