With respect to Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Non-GAAP Tax Expense, the Company has determined that it is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure with a reasonable degree of confidence in its accuracy without unreasonable effort, as items including restructuring and impacts from discrete tax adjustments and tax law changes are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control.
Capital Expenditures is defined as the sum of two items from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows: Capitalized Internal-Use Software and Purchases of Property and Equipment.

Definition for TiVo One Monthly Active User
Xperi defines a “TiVo One Monthly Active User” as a unique device that has connected to the TiVo video service, which includes the TiVo One advertising platform, at least once within the last 30 days. The TiVo One advertising platform integrates with the device’s operating system on certain “Powered by TiVo” devices, including smart TVs and video-over-broadband products.
Calculation of Average Revenue Per User for TiVo One
Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) for TiVo One is calculated by dividing monetization revenue within Media Platform for the trailing four quarters by the average number of TiVo One Monthly Active Users during that same period. Monetization revenue includes all advertising and data monetization revenue from the TiVo One platform and from other parts of our Media Platform business. This metric helps investors and management measure how effectively the Company monetizes its user base through advertising and data on its platforms.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company’s press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP Operating Income/(Loss), Non-GAAP Net Income/(Loss), Non-GAAP Net Income/(Loss) Per Share, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, and Non-GAAP Tax Expense.
Non-GAAP Operating Income/(Loss) is defined as GAAP Operating Income/(Loss), less the impact of stock-based compensation; amortization of intangible assets; transaction, integration and restructuring costs; severance and retention costs; and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
Non-GAAP Net Income/(Loss) is defined as GAAP Net Income/(Loss) excluding the impact of stock-based compensation; amortization of intangible assets; transaction, integration and restructuring costs; severance and retention costs; and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance; and related tax effects for each adjustment.
Non-GAAP Net Income/(Loss) Per Share is defined as Non-GAAP Income/(Loss) divided by Non-GAAP weighted average shares outstanding - diluted.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP Net Income/(Loss), less the impact of interest expense; provision for income taxes; stock-based compensation; depreciation expense; amortization of intangible assets; amortization of capitalized cloud computing costs; transaction, integration and restructuring costs; severance and retention costs; and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.
Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash from operating activities, less cash investments for capitalized internal-use software and purchases of property and equipment.
Non-GAAP Tax Expense is defined as the GAAP provision for income taxes, adjusted to reflect the net direct and indirect income tax effects of the various non-GAAP pretax adjustments.
Management believes that the non-GAAP measures used in this press release provide investors with important perspectives into the Company’s ongoing business and financial performance and provide a better understanding of our core operating results reflecting our normal business operations. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations in that the non-GAAP financial measures we use may not be directly comparable to those reported by other companies. For example, the terms used in this press release, such as adjusted EBITDA, do not have a standardized meaning. Other companies may use the same or similarly named measures, but exclude different items, which may not provide investors with a comparable view of our performance in relation to other companies. We seek to compensate for the limitation of our non-GAAP presentation by providing a detailed reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the tables attached hereto. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. All financial data is presented on a GAAP basis except where the Company indicates its presentation is on a non-GAAP basis.
Set forth below are reconciliations of the Company’s reported GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
