2 terms

non-gaap financial

"no less than 50% of the Company's non-GAAP adjusted net income"

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

View in glossary

share repurchases financial

"through dividends and/or share repurchases each year"

Share repurchases occur when a company buys back its own shares from the open market. This process reduces the total number of shares available, which can increase the value of each remaining share and signal confidence in the company's future. For investors, share repurchases can be a sign that the company believes its stock is undervalued and may lead to higher share prices.
