*When we provide our expectation for adjusted segment operating margin, effective tax rate on non-GAAP income, non-GAAP EPS and adjusted free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of items for exclusion from the GAAP measure. We are unable to address the probable significance of this information, the variability of which may have a significant impact on future GAAP results. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures on page 7 for more information. |
