Non-GAAP Measures of Financial Performance To supplement our financial statements, which are presented on the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the following Adjusted (non-GAAP) measures of financial performance are included in this release: book-to-bill ratios, organic revenue growth, base business revenue growth, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin and adjusted operating margin; adjusted cost of goods sold; adjusted R&D expense; adjusted SG&A expense; adjusted pre-tax income; adjusted income from operations; adjusted net income; adjusted earnings per share-diluted; adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), and adjusted EBITDA margin. The Company provides base revenue and base revenue growth rates, which exclude COVID-related revenue, and the impact of acquisition revenue for current year periods that have no prior year comparables, to facilitate a comparison of its current revenue performance. The Company provides the impact of foreign currency translation, to enable determination of revenue growth rates at constant currency, which exclude the impact of foreign currency translation, in order to facilitate a comparison of its current revenue performance to its past revenue performance. To calculate the impact of foreign currency translation, the Company converts actual net sales from local currency to U.S. dollars using constant foreign currency exchange rates in the current and prior period. The Company’s non-GAAP financial results and/or non-GAAP guidance exclude the impact of: acquisition and integration costs; restructuring charges including the costs of severance and accelerated depreciation among other charges; incremental costs attributed to CEO transition; contingent consideration related to the Company’s acquisitions; intangible amortization costs; non-cash interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount; amortization of debt issuance costs related to Company’s convertible debt; foreign currency impact of certain intercompany loans; and, the related impact on tax of non-GAAP charges. These costs are excluded because management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations, nor do the resulting charges recorded accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are recorded. NOTE:All reconciliations of above GAAP figures (reported or guidance) to adjusted (non-GAAP) figures are detailed in the tables included later in this press release. When analyzing the Company’s operating performance and guidance, investors should not consider non-GAAP measures as a substitute for the comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

FOOTNOTES FOR ALL TABLES ABOVE (amounts in thousands):
(1)Base revenue (Non-GAAP) excludes COVID-related revenue and excludes acquisition-related revenue contribution in current period for which there was no prior year comparable.
(2)Prior year acquisition revenue moved to "Base" for current year vs. prior year comparative purposes.
(3)In July 2023, we began restructuring activities to simplify and streamline our organization and strengthen the overall effectiveness of our operations. The Company continued further restructuring activities during the three months ended June 30, 2024 including severance, employee-related and facility exit costs. Included in cost of goods sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is $1,028 and $3,035 respectively, for benefit received on the sale of inventory that had previously been reserved as part of the Restructuring Plan.
(4)Includes $4,352 of incremental stock compensation expense recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 attributable to the transition of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) to Executive Chair of the Board announced by the Company on June 12, 2024. The incremental stock compensation expense was the result of the modification of the unvested equity awards held by the CEO immediately prior to the modification. This resulted in the revalue of his unvested awards and a change in his remaining requisite service period due to his change in duties upon transitioning to Executive Chair of the Board.
(5)During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 we recorded foreign currency adjustments on certain intercompany loans of ($342) and $3,445 respectively. The impact was recorded to the Other (expenses) income, net line item within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
(6)Includes amortization of milestone payments in accordance with GAAP of $27 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and $55 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
(7)Excludes $19 of accelerated depreciation related to the restructuring plan for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This amount is included in the depreciation line item of this table for that period.
