About Segment Information
Because our business segments reflect the manner in which management reviews our business, they necessarily involve judgments that management believes are reasonable in light of the circumstances under which they are made. These judgments may change over time or may be modified to reflect new facts or circumstances. Segments may also be changed or modified from time to time to reflect technologies and applications that are newly created or that have changed, or other business conditions that evolve, each of which may result in management reassessing specific segments, the elements included therein and the methodologies used to assess segment performance.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"EBITDA" is an acronym for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, as used in this release, removes from EBITDA the effects of amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, other income and expense, and minority interest. "Adjusted EBITDA before unusual items" removes from Adjusted EBITDA the effects of contract amendments that mitigated potential loss positions and restructuring costs.
"Contribution margin," as used in this release, is defined by the company as segment revenues less related direct or indirect allocable costs, including headcount and headcount-related overhead costs, consulting and subcontractor costs, travel, marketing and network infrastructure and bandwidth costs. Contribution margin excludes unallocated corporate support, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, impairment of goodwill, impairment of intangibles, other income, minority interest, restructuring provisions, and unusual items such as contract amendments that mitigated potential loss positions. These exclusions reflect costs not considered directly allocable to individual business segments and result in a definition of contribution margin that does not take into account the substantial cost of doing business.
Management believes that "Adjusted EBITDA before unusual items" and
"contribution margin" are relevant and useful measures, when considered in
conjunction with the comparable GAAP measures, for use by investors in
evaluating the operational performance of the company. They are some of the
principal measures used by OpenTV's management to assess the financial
performance of its business. OpenTV's management believes that both Adjusted
EBITDA before unusual items and contribution margin provide meaningful
information because each measure represents a transparent view of OpenTV's
recurring operating performance and allows management to readily view
operating trends, perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between
segments and identify strategies to improve operating performance. While
OpenTV's management may consider Adjusted EBITDA before unusual items and
contribution margin to be important measures of comparative operating
performance, they should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute
for, profit (loss) from operations, net income (loss), cash flow and other
measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in
While OpenTV believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures contained in this press release complies with the rules and guidance of the SEC, it can give no assurance that it will be able to provide the same or comparable measures in future press releases or announcements. OpenTV may, in the future, present non-GAAP financial measures other than "Adjusted EBITDA before unusual items," "Adjusted EBITDA" and "contribution margin" that it believes may be useful to investors. Any such determinations will be made with the intention of providing the most useful information to investors and will reflect the information used by OpenTV's management in assessing its business, which may change from time to time.
