Operating margin is calculated as operating income derived in accordance with GAAP divided by GAAP Net Sales. Before charges/gains operating margin is operating income derived in accordance with GAAP excluding restructuring and other charges, asset impaiment charges and a change in inventory costing method divided by GAAP net sales. Before charges/gains operating margin is a measure not derived in accordance with GAAP. Management uses this measure to evaluate the returns generated by FBHS and its business segments. Management believes this measure provides investors with helpful supplemental information regarding the underlying performance of the Company from period to period. This measure may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies.

The Company is targeting diluted EPS before charges/gains from continuing operations to be in the range of $3.83 to $4.03 per share. For the full year, on a GAAP basis, the Company is targeting diluted EPS from continuing operations to be in the range of $3.71 to $3.91 per share and including the full year impact of previously announced restructuring actions. Reconciliation of non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to GAAP diluted EPS guidance cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts on a forward- looking basis due to the high variability and low visibility with respect to gains and losses associated with our defined benefit plans and restructuring and other charges, which are excluded from the diluted EPS before charges/gains. In addition, the Company's GAAP EPS range assumes the Company incurs no gains or losses associated with its defined benefit plans during 2020.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, diluted EPS before charges/gains is net income from continuing operations, net of tax less noncontrolling interests calculated on a diluted per-share basis excluding $24.0 million ($18.1 million after tax or $0.13 per diluted share) of restructuring and other charges, intangible asset impairment charges of $41.5 million ($31.4 million after tax or $0.22 per diluted share), the impact from actuarial losses associated with our defined benefit plans of $34.1 million ($25.8 million after tax or $0.18 per diluted share) and a net tax charge of $1.3 million ($0.01 per diluted share).
