Confidential CY’ Q1’ Q4’ 3 Non-GAAP Financial Measures Non-GAAP gross margin in this presentation excludes stock-based compensation expense. Non- GAAP net income and net income per share in this presentation exclude stock-based compensation expense and the related tax effect of the applicable items. Management presents non-GAAP financial measures because it considers them to be important supplemental measures of performance. Management uses the non-GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including analysis of the Company's performance against prior periods, the preparation of operating budgets and to determine appropriate levels of operating and capital investments. Management also believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide additional insight for analysts and investors in evaluating the Company's financial and operating performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and are not intended to be an alternative to financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of SEC Regulation G, detailed reconciliations between the Company's GAAP and non-GAAP financial results is provided at the end of the press release that was issued announcing the Company’s operating and financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. In addition, a reconciliation from GAAP to non-GAAP results is contained in the financial summary attached to today’s presentation and is available in the Investor Relations section of our website at www.supermicro.com in the Events and Presentations section. Investors are advised to carefully review and consider this information as well as the GAAP financial results that are disclosed in the Company's SEC filings.
