(1) Pro Forma EBITDA reflects net income/loss excluding interest
income/expense, taxes, depreciation, restructuring expenses,
acquisition-related expenses, amortization of intangibles and stock-based
compensation, and cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.
Management uses this measure internally to evaluate the company's
performance. NetRatings provides results, guidance, and associated
reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the investment community, as we
believe it provides consistent and comparable measures to help investors
understand our current and future operating cash flow performance. Interest
income/expense and provision for income taxes are excluded as it is not
related to our operating performance. Restructuring expenses and
acquisition-related expenses are excluded as they are one-time items not
directly related to operations. Depreciation expenses, amortization of
stock-based compensation, and cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle are excluded as they are non-cash charges. NetRatings excludes
amortization of intangibles as it is a non-cash charge not directly related
to operations. Pro Forma EBITDA data is provided as a complement to results
provided in accordance with GAAP, and should be considered in addition to,
and not as a substitute for or superior to, other measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
