(1) The Company's non-GAAP net income per share is calculated using the cash tax rate of 22%, 22%, and (7%) for the three month periods ended September 30, 2012, June 30, 2012, and September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company's non-GAAP net income per share is calculated using the cash tax rate of 19% and 2% for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The estimated cash tax rate is the estimated tax payable on the Company's projected tax returns as a percentage of estimated annual non-GAAP pre-tax net income. The Company uses an estimated cash tax rate to adjust for the historical variation in the effective book tax rate associated with the reversal of valuation allowances, the utilization of research and development tax credits, and the utilization of loss carryforwards which currently have an overall effect of reducing taxes payable. The Company believes that the cash tax rate provides a more transparent view of its operating results. The Company's effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the three month periods ended September 30, 2012, June 30, 2012, and September 30, 2011 was approximately 74%, 31% and 28%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate used for the purposes of calculating GAAP net income for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was approximately 49% and 34%, respectively. |
