Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On May 15, 2006, the Company issued a press release reporting third quarter 2006 financial results. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
The release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report contains the following non-GAAP measure: Net loss applicable to common shareholders adjusted to exclude employee stock-based compensation recorded for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 increased $0.05 per share to $0.15 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, up from $0.10 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. (Refer below to our reconciliation table of GAAP net loss applicable to common shareholders to the adjusted net loss available to common shareholders).
Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measure
Adjusted net loss applicable to common shareholders defined as net loss applicable to common shareholders less employee stock-based compensation recorded for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Three months ended March 31, Nine months ended March 31, 2006 2005 2006 2005 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net loss available to common shareholders, as reported $(8,221,521) $(3,155,629) $(16,990,110) $(10,491,728) Add: Employee stock-based compensation expense (income) recorded 2,057,566 (628,508) 2,998,506 (365,016) ------------ ------------ ------------- ------------- Adjusted net loss available to common shareholders $(6,163,955) $(3,784,137) $(13,991,604) $(10,856,744) ============ ============ ============= ============= Basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock, as reported $ (0.20) $ (0.08) $ (0.42) $ (0.33) Adjusted basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock $ (0.15) $ (0.10) $ (0.34) $ (0.34) Weighted-average shares used in computing basic & diluted net loss per share 40,870,688 37,602,163 40,734,286 31,907,864
Note: Adjusted net loss available to common shareholders, defined as net loss available to common shareholders adjusted for employee stock-based compensation expense (income) required to be recorded in the statement of operations is a non-U.S. GAAP measure used by management in evaluating the performance of the Company's overall business. The Company believes that this performance measure contributes to a more complete understanding by investors of the overall results of the Company. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded employee stock-based compensation in the statement of operations as required by SFAS 123 (R). For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, the Company did not record employee stock-based compensation expense for equity awards issued at-the-money. For the prior period, the Company recorded employee stock-based compensation income relating to the re-measuring of the intrinsic value of stock options due to the repricing of certain employee stock options.
The information set forth in the above Item 2.02 and the attached Exhibit 99.1 is furnished to, but shall not be deemed filed with the Commission for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), or otherwise incorporated by reference into any filing pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as otherwise expressly stated in such a filing.
