USE OF GAAP AND
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Our results of operations have undergone significant change due to the impact of litigation accruals, stock-based compensation,
restructuring, transition and separation matters, charges related to the amortization of intangible assets, and certain other income
and expense items that management considers unrelated to the Company’s core operations. To help our readers understand our past
financial performance and our future results, we supplement the financial results that we provide in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with non-GAAP financial measures. The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not
computed according to GAAP and may differ from the methods used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are
supplemental, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should be
read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Our management team uses these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s operating results, as well as when
planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial
measures to the comparable GAAP results, which is attached to our quarterly earnings release and which can be found, along with
other financial information, on the investor relations page of our website at: www.symantec.com/invest.
