This schedule reconciles the Company's GAAP operating loss to its Non-GAAP operating income. The Company believes that presentation of this schedule provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the Company's core operating results and facilitates comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The Company uses these Non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. These Non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the Company's GAAP results.
To present results consistently, the reconciliation related to the three months ended March 31, 2021 was modified to include the acquisition related expenses.
The adjustments to GAAP operating loss (a) consist of stock compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring expenses, and acquisition related expenses. The adjustments to GAAP net income include the non-GAAP adjustments to operating income as well as adjustments for (b) non-cash income tax expense.
