- Stock-based compensation expenses are expected to be between approximately $76 million and $78 million, for the year ending January 31, 2025, assuming market prices for our common stock approximately consistent with current levels.
- Our non-GAAP guidance does not include the potential impact of any in-process business acquisitions that may close after the date hereof
- We are unable, without unreasonable efforts, to provide a reconciliation for other GAAP measures which are excluded from our non-GAAP outlook, including the impact of future business acquisitions or acquisition expenses, future restructuring expenses, and non-GAAP income tax adjustments due to the level of unpredictability and uncertainty associated with these items.
- For these same reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of these excluded items.
