Adjusted net income is calculated by taking Ziff Davis&#x2019; consolidated GAAP net income, adding back any non-cash compensation expense, non-recurring one-time charges, depreciation and amortization, and certain other non-GAAP adjustments, all items net of tax.  PSUs granted to our CEO and NEOs require Ziff Davis common stock to remain at or above set stock price targets for at least 20 trading days in any 30 consecutive trading day period before restrictions on the PSUs lapse.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</ecd:TabularListTableTextBlock>
