Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are shown in detail below, along with definitions for those terms. A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), can be found within the tables included in this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
For information regarding the purpose for which management uses the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release and why management believes they provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, please refer to the Company’s latest periodic report.
EBITDA is our net income (loss) before interest income or expense, net, other income or expense, net, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We typically disclose EBITDA on a consolidated and on an operating segment basis in our earnings releases, investor conference calls, and filings with the
Adjusted EBITDA is different from EBITDA because we further adjust EBITDA for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition- and integration-related costs, restructuring and related costs, including certain advisory fees; and settlements and impairments incurred outside our ordinary course of business, including judgments. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues for the period.
Adjusted Net Income represents our net income (loss) adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition- and integration-related costs, including gains or losses on equity investments acquired in prospective targets and related to deal-contingent financial instruments, restructuring costs, settlement and impairment costs incurred outside our ordinary course of business, including judgments and related, non-recurring interest; and amortization of acquired intangible assets and other related costs, and then subtracting an assumed provision for income taxes. In 2026, we are assuming a 26% tax rate to approximate our statutory corporate tax rate, excluding the impact of discrete items, to determine Adjusted Net Income for each quarterly period, year-to-date period and annual period.
Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted Net Income divided by the number of diluted shares outstanding for the period used in the calculation of GAAP earnings per diluted share. For periods with GAAP net losses and Adjusted Net Income, the weighted average outstanding shares used to calculate Adjusted EPS includes potentially dilutive securities that were excluded from the calculation of GAAP earnings per share as the effect was anti-dilutive.
Operating Metrics
Net new bookings is calculated based on the annualized amount of change in the Company's sales bookings resulting from new subscription-based contracts, changes to existing subscription-based contracts, and cancellations of subscription-based contracts for the period reported. Information regarding net new bookings is not comparable to, nor should it be substituted for, an analysis of the Company's revenues over time.
Earnings Conference Call
Management will conduct a conference call to discuss the second quarter 2026 results and the Company’s outlook at

(3) Includes the effect of potential common shares, such as the Company's stock options, restricted stock units, and deferred stock units, to the extent the effect is dilutive. In periods with a net loss available to common stockholders, the anti-dilutive effect of these potential common shares is excluded and earnings per share - diluted is equal to earnings per share - basic. Adjusted weighted average shares have been adjusted for these periods to include the dilutive impact. |

(3) Diluted earnings per share includes the effect of potential common shares, such as the Company's stock options, restricted stock units, and deferred stock units, to the extent the effect is dilutive. In periods with a net loss, the anti-dilutive effect of these potential common shares is excluded and earnings per share - diluted is equal to earnings per share - basic. In periods with GAAP net losses and Adjusted Net Income, the weighted average shares outstanding have been adjusted to include the dilutive impact on Adjusted EPS. |
