Non-GAAP Financial Measure

The Company discloses a certain non-GAAP financial measure to supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis. This non-GAAP measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and may be different from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measure disclosed by the Company is not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA adjusted for stock based-compensation, deferred revenue recognized, manufacturing transition costs and other non-cash expenses) to understand operational cash usage. The Company believes the non-GAAP financial measure provides useful and supplementary information allowing investors greater transparency to one measure used by management. The non-GAAP financial measure is meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure below.
