We believe the inclusion of the above non-GAAP measure, excluding the effect of share-based payment charge, will be useful to investors because it will enhance the comparability of our results in recent periods to results in periods prior to our adoption of FAS 123(R). We also believe inclusion of this measure will enhance comparability of our results to results of our competitors, particularly those who did not adopt FAS 123(R) during one or more periods included in their public filings, and to the analysts' forecasts because the analysts continue to forecast excluding the effect of share-based payment charge, the non-GAAP measure. In addition, our management uses this measure to evaluate our operating performance and compare our results to our competitors. Management also uses this measure as a metric to measure performance under our executive compensation program.
The Company notes that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Instead, they are based on subjective determinations by management designed to supplement our GAAP financial measures. They are subject to a number of important limitations and should be considered only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Among the limitations on the use of the non-GAAP measure are the following:
-- The exclusion of non-cash share-based payment charges can have a
significant impact on reported GAAP net income and diluted net income
per share.
-- Other companies may utilize non-cash share-based payments to a
significantly greater or lesser degree in relation to overall
compensation than MICROS.
-- Other companies may calculate non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net
income per share differently than MICROS does, limiting the usefulness
of those measures for comparative purposes.
