Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
CommVault has provided in this press release selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. CommVault uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, when used as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating CommVault's ongoing operational performance. CommVault believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing its financial results with other companies in CommVault's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to the investment community.
The non-GAAP financial results discussed above excludes noncash stock- based compensation charges, accretion of preferred stock dividends and accretion of fair value of cumulative redeemable convertible preferred stock upon its conversion to common stock. In addition, the non-GAAP financial results apply an effective tax rate of 25% starting in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 which will result in an estimated effective tax rate of approximately 20% for fiscal 2007.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
