Exhibit 99.1
Non-GAAP Reconciliation, page 12
1. We note you present a
non-GAAP financial measure you identify as Adjusted diluted
income per share. We
also note this non-GAAP financial measure includes an
adjustment that
represents the dilution of your convertible notes, which is economically
offset by a call spread
overlay that was put in place upon issuance, since as a result of
your adoption of ASU
2020-06, the convertible notes are now assumed to be converted
into common stock at
the beginning of the reporting period, and interest expense is
excluded, both of which
impact the calculation of GAAP diluted earnings per share. It is
not clear to us why you
believe this adjustment is appropriate since it appears this
adjustment essentially
results in a measure that disregards your required adoption of ASU
2020-06 and the related
requirements. Please more fully explain to us how you determined
this adjustment is
appropriate and specifically address how you considered Question
