1 Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP measure that excludes from the corresponding GAAP financial measure of diluted earnings per share the effect of adjustments as described under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures". We have not provided a reconciliation of such non-GAAP guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure because we cannot predict and quantify with a reasonable degree of confidence all of the adjustments that may occur during the period.
