Item 2.02. Results of Operation and Financial Condition.
On November 5, 2012, the Registrant issued an earnings release announcing its
financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. A copy
of the earnings release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
This earnings press release includes financial measures that are not in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
We refer to these as non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, the release
refers to adjusted statements of operations and adjusted diluted earnings per
share.
Adjusted statements of operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share
Endo refers to adjusted income (loss) before tax in making operating decisions
because it believes it provides meaningful supplemental information regarding
the Company's operational performance. For instance, Endo believes that this
measure facilitates its internal comparisons to its historical operating results
and comparisons to competitors' results. The Company believes this measure is
useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to supplemental
information used by Endo in its financial and operational decision-making. In
addition, Endo has historically reported similar financial measures to its
investors and believes that the inclusion of comparative numbers provides
consistency in its financial reporting at this time. Further, Endo believes that
adjusted income (loss) before tax may be useful to investors as it is aware that
certain of its significant stockholders utilize adjusted income (loss) before
tax to evaluate its financial performance. Finally, adjusted income (loss)
before income tax is utilized in the calculation of adjusted diluted net income
per share, which is used by the Compensation Committee of Endo's Board of
Directors in assessing the performance and compensation of substantially all of
its employees, including its executive officers.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States and may be different from
non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Endo refers to these
non-GAAP financial measures in making operating decisions because it believes
they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the company's
operational performance. For instance, Endo believes that these non-GAAP
financial measures facilitate its internal comparisons to its historical
operating results and comparisons to competitors' results. The company includes
these non-GAAP financial measures in its earnings announcements because it
believes they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency
related to supplemental information used by Endo in its financial and
operational decision-making. In addition, Endo has historically reported similar
non-GAAP financial measures to its investors and believes that the inclusion of
comparative numbers provides consistency in its financial reporting at this
time. Further, Endo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be
useful to investors as it is aware that certain of its significant stockholders
and lenders utilize these measures to evaluate its financial performance.
Finally, the adjusted statements of operations and adjusted diluted earnings per
share measures are considered by the Compensation Committee of Endo's Board of
Directors in assessing the performance and compensation of substantially all of
its employees, including its executive officers.
Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial
measures used in this earnings announcement to their most directly comparable
GAAP financial measures as provided with the financial statements included in
this press release.
