Disclosure Statements and Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we also consider adjusted gross profit, operating income and net income, which we refer to as "non-GAAP gross profit," "non-GAAP operating income" and "non-GAAP net income." In calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income, management excludes certain items to facilitate its review of the comparability of the company's operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in management's review, related to the company's ongoing operating performance.
Non-GAAP gross profit excludes amortization of purchased technology, stock-based compensation charges and certain other items. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP operating income exclude amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, stock-based compensation charges, acquisition related costs, loss on sale/disposal of assets and technology, restructuring charges, investigation related and other costs, provision for income taxes and certain other items.
Management used a 27 percent non-GAAP effective tax rate to calculate non-GAAP net income in 2008. For 2009, management uses an assumed 24 percent non-GAAP effective tax rate. Management believes the 24 percent effective tax rate is reflective of a long-term normalized tax rate under the global McAfee operating structure.
We present non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income because we consider each to be an important supplemental measure of our performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to make operational and investment decisions, to evaluate the company's performance, to forecast and to determine compensation. Further, management utilizes these performance measures for purposes of comparison with its business plan and individual operating budgets and allocation of resources. In addition, when evaluating potential acquisitions, management excludes the items described above from its consideration of target performance and valuation.
We further believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in providing greater transparency to the information used by management in its operational decision making. We believe that calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income also facilitates a comparison of McAfee's underlying operating performance with that of other companies in our industry, which may from time to time use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. However, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP gross profit, operating income and net income or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. In the future, we expect to continue to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-GAAP adjustments described above and exclusion of these items in the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that all of these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Investors and potential investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools. Some of the limitations in relying on non-GAAP net income are:
Amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, though not directly affecting our current cash position, represents the loss in value as the technology in our industry evolves, is advanced or is replaced over time. The expense associated with this loss in value is not included in the non-GAAP net income presentation and therefore does not reflect the full economic effect of the ongoing cost of maintaining our current technological position in our competitive industry which is addressed through our research and development program.
The company regularly engages in acquisition and integration activities as part of its ongoing business. Therefore, we expect to continue to experience acquisition and retention bonuses, direct acquisition costs and integration costs related to acquisition activity in future periods.
The company's income tax expense will ultimately be based on its GAAP taxable income and actual tax rates in effect, which may differ significantly from the 24 percent rate assumed in our non-GAAP financial measures for 2009 and the 27 percent rate assumed in our non-GAAP financial measures for 2008.
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP net income differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative tool
In addition, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial statements result in the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in the company's financial results for the foreseeable future. The company compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. The company further compensates for the limitations of our use of non-GAAP financial measures by presenting comparable GAAP measures more prominently. The company evaluates the non-GAAP financial measures together with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within this press release with our GAAP gross profit, operating income and net income. For more information, see the consolidated statements of income and the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" contained in this press release.
Forward-Looking Statements:
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward looking statements include statements regarding the preliminary results for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, guidance on expected results for the fourth quarter of 2009, the assumed tax rates for the fourth quarter and full-year 2009 and statements about the demand for security solutions, McAfee's financial positioning, business strategy, business momentum, market position, relationships, opportunities, and the value of McAfee's security solutions. Actual results could vary, perhaps materially, and the expected results may not occur. In particular, actual results are subject to other risks, including that McAfee may not achieve its planned revenue realization rates or sales targets, succeed in its efforts to grow its business or combat effectively the security threats of the future, build upon its technology leadership, leverage its relationships and opportunities to the degree expected, or capture market share, notwithstanding related commitment or related investment. The company may not benefit from its acquisitions, strategic alliances or partnerships as anticipated, customers may not respond as favorably as anticipated to the company's product or technical support offerings, the company's product and service offerings may not continue to interoperate effectively with newly developed operating systems, the company may experience delays in product development or the release of previously announced products, the company may experience delayed or lost sales and revenue as a result of outages in integrated systems on which it is highly dependent, the company may not satisfactorily anticipate or meet its customers' needs or expectations, or the industry shift to security suites may not be adopted to the extent anticipated. Actual results are also subject to a number of other factors, including customer and distributor demand fluctuations, currency fluctuations and macro and other economic conditions both in the United States and internationally including the current credit crisis and adverse global economic conditions. The Company may experience further declines in the fair value of its investment securities or realize losses relating to other than temporary declines in its investment securities given the current credit crisis and adverse global economic conditions. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in McAfee's filings with the SEC (News - Alert) including its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2009. McAfee does not undertake to update any forward looking statements.

* Non-GAAP net income per share is computed independently for each period presented. The sum of GAAP net income per share and non-GAAP adjustments may not equal non-GAAP net income per share due to rounding differences.
This presentation includes non-GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. For a detailed explanation of the adjustments made to comparable GAAP measures, the reasons why management uses these measures, the usefulness of these measures and the material limitations of these measures, see items (A) through (L).
Items (A) through (L) on the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" table are listed to the right of certain categories under "Gross profit," "Operating income," "Net income" and "Net income per share - diluted" and correspond to the categories explained in further detail below under paragraphs (A) through (L).
While we currently do not believe a non-GAAP net revenue metric is meaningful, GAAP net revenue has been provided to enable an understanding of the relationships between GAAP net revenue and the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in the table above. As an example, this facilitates non-GAAP expense to revenue analysis. The non-GAAP financial measures are non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share - diluted, which adjust for the following items: stock-based compensation charges, amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, restructuring charges, acquisition related costs, loss on sale/disposal of assets and technology, investigation related and other costs, change in fair value of stock-based liability awards, impairment of marketable securities, income taxes and certain other items. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors, and such measures are used by our management, for the reasons associated with each of the adjusting items as described below:
(A)
Stock-based compensation charges consist of charges relating to stock-based awards issued to employees and outside directors including stock options, restricted stock awards and units, restricted stock units with performance-based vesting and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation charges allows for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to our peer companies, and for a more accurate comparison of our financial results to previous periods. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of stock-based compensation charges on our operating results. The amount in 2008 also includes stock-based compensation charges related to the tender offer.
(B)
Amortization of purchased technology and intangibles are non-cash charges that can be impacted by the timing and magnitude of our acquisitions. The Company considers its operating results without these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes the assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance of other companies in its industry.
(C)
Acquisition related costs include direct costs of the acquisition and expenses related to acquisition integration activities. Examples of costs directly related to an acquisition include transactions fees, due diligence costs, acquisition retention bonuses and severance, fair value adjustments related to contingent consideration, amounts or recoveries subject to escrow provisions, and certain legal costs related to acquired litigation. These expenses vary significantly in size and amount and are disregarded by the Company's management when evaluating and predicting earnings trends because these charges are unique to specific acquisitions, and are therefore excluded by the Company when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(D)
Restructuring charges include excess facility and asset-related restructuring charges and severance costs resulting from reductions of personnel driven by modifications to the Company's business strategy, such as acquisitions or divestitures. These costs may vary in size based on the Company's restructuring plan. In addition, the Company's assumptions are continually evaluated, which may increase or reduce the charges in a specific period. The Company's management excludes these costs when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(E)
Investigation related and other costs are charges related to discrete and unusual events where the Company has incurred significant costs which, in the Company's view, are not incurred in the ordinary course of operations. Recent examples of such charges include legal expenses related to the special committee investigation into the Company's past stock option granting practices which was completed in December 2007. The Company's management excludes these costs when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. Further, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of these charges on its operating results.
(F)
Loss on sale/disposal of assets and technology relate to the sale or disposal of assets of the Company. These losses or gains can vary significantly in size and amount. The Company's management excludes these losses or gains when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these items when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. In addition, in periods where the Company realizes gains or incurs losses on the sale of assets and/or technology, the Company believes it is useful to investors to highlight the specific impact of these amounts on its operating results.
(G)
Legal settlement is a settlement related to a patent legal matter. The Company's management excludes this charge when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting earnings trends, and therefore excludes this amount when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(H)
Acquired intangible asset expensed to research and development is related to purchase of an intangible asset, which, similar to in-process research and development costs, was expensed immediately. The Company's management excludes this cost when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes this cost when presenting non-GAAP financial measures. Further, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of this cost on its operating results.
(I)
Change in fair value of stock-based liability awards constitutes the expense or benefit associated with the change in fair value of stock-based liability awards at the end of the each reporting period. The Company's management excludes these (benefits) costs when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these amounts when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(J)
Impairment of marketable securities constitutes the "other than temporary" decline in the fair value of the Company's available-for-sale securities. The Company's management excludes these losses when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes this loss when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(K)
Provision for income taxes is our GAAP provision that must be added back to GAAP net income to reconcile to non-GAAP income before taxes.
(L)
Non-GAAP provision for income taxes reflects a 24% non-GAAP effective tax rate in 2009 and a 27% non-GAAP effective tax rate in 2008 which is used by the Company's management to calculate non-GAAP net income. Management believes that the 24% and 27% effective tax rate in each respective period is reflective of a long-term normalized tax rate under the global McAfee legal entity and tax structure as of the respective period end.

We believe that providing a forecast of the non-GAAP items set forth above is useful to investors, and such items are used by our management, for the reasons associated with each of the adjusting items as described below.
(1)
Stock-based compensation charges consist of charges relating to stock-based awards issued to employees and outside directors including stock options, restricted stock awards and units, restricted stock units with performance-based vesting and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types, the Company believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation charges allows for more accurate comparisons of our operating results to our peer companies, and for a more accurate comparison of our financial results to previous periods. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of stock-based compensation charges on our operating results.
(2)
Other adjustments include amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, investigation related and other costs, restructuring charges, acquisition related costs, loss/gain on sale/disposal of assets and technology, income taxes and certain other items. We exclude these items because we believe they are not directly related to the operation of our business. A more detailed explanation of the reasons why we exclude these categories from our GAAP net income is contained in paragraphs (B) through (L) above under the table entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
For Q4 FY'09, this guidance reflects an assumed annual GAAP and non-GAAP tax rate of 24%.
