Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial results prepared under GAAP, Maxim uses non-GAAP measures which are adjusted from the most directly comparable GAAP results to exclude special expense items related to intangible asset amortization; acquisition related inventory write up to fair value; impairment charges related to manufacturing equipment; severance and restructuring; stock option related litigation; certain payroll taxes, interest and penalties; in-process research and development written off; gain on the sale of land and buildings; gain on sale of equity investment;  reversal of tax reserves related to audit completion and expiration of statute of limitations; the tax provision impacts due to implementation of international restructuring; and gain on sale, net of tax relating to certain businesses divested. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate Maxim's current performance. Many analysts covering Maxim use the non-GAAP measures as well. Given management's use of these non-GAAP measures, Maxim believes these measures are important to investors in understanding Maxim's current and future operating results as seen through the eyes of management. In addition, management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in enabling them to better assess changes in Maxim's core business across different time periods. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or an alternative to GAAP financial data and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
