Use of Non - GAAP Financial Measures Immersion reports all financial information required in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ) , but it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results may be difficult to understand if limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures . Immersion discloses this non - GAAP information , such as Non - GAAP net income ( loss ) and Non - GAAP net income ( loss ) per diluted share because it is useful in understanding the company's performance as it excludes certain non - cash expenses like stock - based compensation expense and other special charges , such as deferred tax assets valuation allowance , depreciation and restructuring costs , that many investors feel may obscure the company's true operating performance . Likewise , management uses these non - GAAP financial measures to manage and assess the profitability of its business . Non - GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to , and not as an alternative for , the Company's reported results under GAAP . The non - GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP . Such non - GAAP financial measures are reconciled to their closest GAAP financial measures in tables contained in this press release . The Company has not reconciled the non - GAAP financial measures guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward - looking basis due to the uncertainty and the potential variability of many of the costs and expenses that may be incurred in the future . Accordingly , reconciliations of the Company's forward - looking non - GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable effort .
