Challenges Ahead

  • The Company’s fourth quarter and 2024 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the Company’s control.
  • If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company’s expectations may change.
  • There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.
  • The Company does not provide guidance for operating loss.
  • The Company does not provide a reconciliation between its forecasted non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income per share and non-GAAP operating margin and these comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain items.
