Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement NVIDIA's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets presented in accordance with GAAP,
the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial
performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit,
non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP tax expense,
non-GAAP tax rate, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per share.
In order for NVIDIA's investors to be better able to compare its current
results with those of previous periods, the company has shown a
reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. These
reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude
stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, other
acquisition related costs, a non-recurring benefit from a legal settlement,
and the associated tax impact of these items, where applicable. NVIDIA
believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the
user's overall understanding of the company's historical financial
performance. The presentation of the company's non-GAAP financial measures
is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the
company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and our
non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other
companies.
