Salesforce.com will report GAAP earnings, which include recurring stock based compensation expense, and recurring amortization expense associated with the amortization of purchased intangibles. Guidance for third quarter fiscal year 2007 results, delivered on August 17, 2006, was given on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis, which excluded those items. Current First Call consensus also excludes those items. Beginning with the third quarter fiscal year 2007, the company plans to report earnings and provide outlook on a GAAP basis only. Exceptions to this policy may occur when large, non-recurring items or events arise. In those instances, the company may report non-GAAP earnings that reflect the inclusion or exclusion of those non-recurring items or events.
