Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In our press release and schedules, we report certain financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We discuss management's reasons for reporting these non-GAAP measures below, and the press release schedules that follow reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to each non-GAAP measure that we reference. Although management evaluates and presents these non-GAAP measures for the reasons described below, please be aware that these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue, total costs and expenses, income from operations, operating margin, income before income taxes, net income, earnings per share or any other comparable financial measure prescribed by GAAP. In addition, we may calculate and/or present these non-GAAP financial measures differently than measures with the same or similar names that other companies report, and as a result, the non-GAAP measures we report may not be comparable to those reported by others.
Management uses certain non-GAAP measures to evaluate financial performance because those non-GAAP measures allow for period-over-period comparisons of the Company’s ongoing operations before the impact of certain items described below. Management believes this information is useful to investors to compare the Company’s results of operations period-over-period. These measures are Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Net Income, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS). We define Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS to exclude (1) a purchase accounting adjustment to record acquired contract liabilities at fair value as a result of the Company’s acquisition of Torrens University and associated assets in Australia and New Zealand, and amortization and depreciation expense related to intangible assets and software assets associated with the Company’s merger with Capella Education Company and the Company’s acquisition of Torrens University and associated assets in Australia and New Zealand, (2) transaction and integration expenses associated with the Company's merger with Capella Education Company and the Company’s acquisition of Torrens University and associated assets in Australia and New Zealand, (3) severance costs and right-of-use lease asset impairment charges associated with the Company’s restructuring, (4) income/loss recognized from the Company’s investments in partnership interests and other investments, and (5) discrete tax adjustments utilizing adjusted effective income tax rates of 29.2% and 30.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively. To illustrate currency impacts to operating results, Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Total Costs and Expenses, Adjusted Income from Operations, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Income Before Income Taxes, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are also presented on a constant currency basis utilizing an exchange rate of 0.7728 Australian Dollars to U.S. Dollars, which was the average exchange rate for the same period in 2021. We define EBITDA as net income before other income, the provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and from this amount in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA we also exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense associated with deferred implementation costs incurred in cloud computing arrangements, a purchase accounting adjustment to record acquired contract liabilities at fair value, and the amounts in (2) and (3) above. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the sections that follow. Non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as substitutes for GAAP measures.

Финансовые показатели, Не относящиеся к ОПБУ
В нашем пресс-релизе и графиках мы сообщаем о некоторых финансовых показателях, которые не требуются или не представлены в соответствии с принципами бухгалтерского учета, общепринятыми в Соединенных Штатах Америки ("GAAP"). Ниже мы обсуждаем причины, по которым руководство сообщило об этих показателях, не относящихся к GAAP, и приводимые ниже графики пресс-релизов согласуют наиболее непосредственно сопоставимые показатели GAAP с каждым показателем, не относящимся к GAAP, на который мы ссылаемся. Хотя руководство оценивает и представляет эти показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, по причинам, описанным ниже, пожалуйста, имейте в виду, что эти показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, имеют ограничения и не должны рассматриваться изолированно или в качестве замены выручки, общих затрат и расходов, дохода от операций, операционной маржи, дохода до налогообложения, чистой прибыли, прибыль на акцию или любой другой сопоставимый финансовый показатель, предписанный GAAP. Кроме того, мы можем рассчитывать и/ или представлять эти финансовые показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, иначе, чем показатели с теми же или похожими названиями, о которых сообщают другие компании, и в результате показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, о которых мы сообщаем, могут быть несопоставимы с показателями, о которых сообщают другие.
Руководство использует определенные показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, для оценки финансовых результатов, поскольку эти показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, позволяют сравнивать текущую деятельность Компании за период до воздействия определенных статей, описанных ниже. Руководство считает, что эта информация полезна инвесторам для сравнения результатов деятельности Компании за отчетный период. Эти показатели включают Скорректированную Выручку, Скорректированные Общие Затраты и Расходы, Скорректированный Доход от Операций, Скорректированную Операционную Маржу, Скорректированную Прибыль до вычета Налогов на прибыль, Скорректированную Чистую Прибыль, Прибыль до вычета Процентов, Налогов, Износа и Амортизации (EBITDA), Скорректированную EBITDA и Скорректированную Разводненную Прибыль на Акцию (EPS). Мы определяем Скорректированную Выручку, Скорректированные Общие Затраты и Расходы, Скорректированный Доход от Операций, Скорректированную Операционную маржу, Скорректированный Доход до вычета налогов на прибыль, Скорректированную Чистую прибыль и Скорректированную Разводненную прибыль на акцию, чтобы исключить (1) корректировку учета покупок для учета приобретенных контрактных обязательств по справедливой стоимости в результате приобретения Компанией Университет Торренса и связанные с ним активы в Австралии и Новой Зеландии, а также расходы на амортизацию и амортизацию, связанные с нематериальными активами и активами программного обеспечения, связанными со слиянием Компании с Capella Education Company и приобретением Компанией Университета Торренса и связанных с ним активов в Австралии и Новой Зеландии, (2) операционные и интеграционные расходы, связанные с Слияние Компании с Capella Education Company и приобретение Компанией Университета Торренса и связанных с ним активов в Австралии и Новой Зеландии, (3) расходы на выходное пособие и расходы на обесценение активов, связанных с правом пользования, связанные с реструктуризацией Компании, (4) доход/убыток, признанный от инвестиций Компании в партнерство проценты и другие инвестиции, и (5) отдельные налоговые корректировки с использованием скорректированных эффективных ставок подоходного налога в размере 29,2% и 30,0% за три месяца, закончившихся 31 марта 2021 и 2022 годов, соответственно. Чтобы проиллюстрировать влияние валютных курсов на операционные результаты, Скорректированная Выручка, Скорректированные Общие затраты и Расходы, Скорректированный Доход от операций, Скорректированная Операционная маржа, Скорректированный Доход до вычета налогов на прибыль, Скорректированная Чистая прибыль и Скорректированная Разводненная прибыль на акцию за три месяца, закончившихся 31 марта 2022 года, также представлены на основе постоянной валюты с использованием обменного курса курс 0,7728 австралийского доллара к доллару США, что было средним обменным курсом за тот же период в 2021 году. Мы определяем EBITDA как чистую прибыль до вычета прочих доходов, резерва по налогу на прибыль, износа и амортизации, и из этой суммы при расчете скорректированной EBITDA мы также исключаем расходы на компенсацию на основе запасов, расходы на амортизацию, связанные с отложенными затратами на внедрение, понесенными в рамках облачных вычислений, корректировка учета покупок для учета приобретенных обязательств по контракту по справедливой стоимости, а также суммы, указанные в пунктах (2) и (3) выше. Эти показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, сверяются с наиболее непосредственно сопоставимыми показателями GAAP в следующих разделах. Показатели, не относящиеся к GAAP, не следует рассматривать в качестве заменителей показателей GAAP.
