Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial measures, such as constant currency growth rate, constant currency growth rate excluding CoV-2 assay sales, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures under applicable Commission rules and regulations. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow eliminate impacts of certain non-cash, unusual or other items that that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The Company’s definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. The Company generally uses these non-GAAP financial measures to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company’s historical operating results, comparison to competitors’ operating results and determination of management incentive compensation. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables accompanying this release. For example, such reconciling items include the impact of unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses, gains or losses that are unusual or nonrecurring in nature, as well as discrete taxable events. We cannot estimate or project these items and they may have a substantial and unpredictable impact on our results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Some columns and rows within tables may not add due to rounding. Percentages have been calculated using actual, non-rounded figures.

(a)		Represents expense related to awards granted under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan
(b)		Represents restructuring and severance costs related to several discrete initiatives intended to strengthen operational performance and to support building our commercial capabilities.
(c)		Represents an award from an arbitration proceeding related to one of our collaboration agreements of $8.5 million, partially offset by related legal fees of $1.1 million.
(d)		Represents acquiree-related transaction costs related to the acquisition agreement with Quidel.
(e)		Represents noncash unrealized gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of transactions denominated in foreign currencies primarily related to intercompany loans. Beginning in fiscal 2021, we initiated programs to mitigate the impact of foreign currencies related to intercompany loans in our results. We recorded net noncash unrealized losses of approximately $4.9 million and unrealized gains of approximately $33.0 million for the fiscal quarter and year ended January 2, 2022, respectively. We intend for these programs to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to intercompany loans in current and future periods. Therefore, effective January 4, 2021, we no longer exclude noncash unrealized gains and losses from Adjusted EBITDA.
