14Central Pacific Financial Corp. Non-GAAP Disclosure To supplement our consolidated financial information, the Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others, which excludes transactions that are not meaningful in comparison to our past operating performance or not reflective of ongoing financial results. The Company believes that these measures offer a supplemental measure for period-to-period comparisons and can be used to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies. The following reconciling adjustments from GAAP or reported financial measures to non-GAAP adjusted financial measures are limited to: (i) a pre-tax loss on sales of investment securities of $9.9 million related to an investment portfolio repositioning in the fourth quarter of 2024, and (ii) $3.1 million in pre-tax expenses related to our evaluation and assessment of a strategic opportunity in the third quarter of 2024. Management does not consider these transactions to be representative of the Company's core operating performance. The income tax effect was calculated assuming a 23% effective tax rate.
