Discussion of Non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), we provide Non-GAAP measures, including in this release. We utilize several different financial measures, both GAAP and Non-GAAP, to analyze and assess the business’ overall performance, make operating decisions, and forecast and plan for future periods. Our annual financial plan is prepared on both a GAAP and a Non-GAAP basis. We use Non-GAAP measures in the evaluation process to establish management’s compensation because of the importance of these measures in managing the business.

The Non-GAAP measures exclude the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, costs arising in connection with the issuance of our convertible senior notes and the related capped call transactions, gains and losses arising from our venture investments, gains and losses from our capped call transactions, gains and losses arising in connection with the change in the format of PegaWorld, and related income tax effects. We believe these Non-GAAP measures are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our anticipated future results.
These Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures. They should only be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
