We operate in very competitive and rapidly changing environments, and new risks may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management topredict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actualresults to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Forward-looking statements are subject to known andunknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors including, but not limited to, those related to our ability to maintain an adequate rate ofrevenue growth, our business plan and our ability to effectively manage our growth, costs associated with defending intellectual property infringement andother claims, risks and costs related to litigation, our ability to attract and retain end-customers, our ability to further penetrate our existing customer base,our ability to displace existing products in established markets, our ability to timely and effectively scale and adapt our existing technology, our ability toinnovate new products and bring them to market in a timely manner, our ability to expand internationally, the effects of increased competition in ourmarket and our ability to compete effectively, the effects of seasonal trends on our results of operations, our expectations concerning relationships with thirdparties, the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel, our ability to maintain, protect, and enhance our brand and intellectualproperty, and future acquisitions of or investments in complementary companies, products, services or technologies.
These factors, together with those described in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, annual reports on Form 10-K and other filings made with the Securitiesand Exchange Commission (“SEC”), may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially and adversely from those anticipatedor implied by our forward-looking statements.

Cautionary Statements and Disclosures

In addition to the U.S. GAAP financials, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP measures have limitations asanalytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our results under U.S. GAAP. There are a number oflimitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculatenon-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison.
A10 Networks considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the operating performance of thecompany, exclusive of unusual events or factors that do not directly affect what we consider to be our core operating performance, and are used by thecompany's management for that purpose.
With the exception of revenue, all financial measures discussed today are on a non-GAAP basis and have been adjusted to exclude certain charges. Theuse of non-GAAP measures is further discussed in the accompanying press release, which has been furnished to the SEC on Form 8-K and posted on A10Networks’ website. The press release also defines our non-GAAP financial measures.
A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP measures can also be found in the appendix to this document, in the accompanying press release and onthe trended quarterly financial statements posted on the company’s website.
