Please note that Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K at times discusses revenue and profits excluding special items for our Automotive and/or Financial Services sectors and the primary operating segments and business units therein. The most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") are revenue and profits including special items. We believe that revenue and profits excluding special items are useful measures to provide investors, because they exclude those items that we do not necessarily consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities. As a result, revenue and profits excluding special items provide investors with relevant measures of the results generated by our operations.
In addition, Exhibit 99 discusses our key cash metrics, Automotive operating-related cash flow (which we believe best represents the ability of our Automotive operations to generate cash), and Automotive gross cash (including cash and cash equivalents, net marketable securities, and loaned securities). We believe that Automotive operating-related cash flow is useful to investors because it includes elements that we consider to be related to our operating activities (e.g., capital spending), and excludes cash flow elements that we do not consider to be related to the ability of our operations to generate cash (e.g., tax refunds). The most comparable U.S. GAAP measure is Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations on our statement of cash flows. The most comparable U.S. GAAP measure for Automotive gross cash is the sum of the individual line items on our balance sheet for each of the elements within that measure (Cash and cash equivalents, Marketable securities, and Loaned securities).
