Appropriate reconciliations between historical GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, as well as between the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in our financial outlook for 2026, are provided in the tables at the end of our press release and slide presentation, with itemized detail concerning the non-GAAP financial measures. We have not included, however, guidance for 2026 for GAAP gross margin or GAAP operating expenses, or a reconciliation of our guidance for 2026 for non-GAAP gross margins or non-GAAP operating expenses to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (i.e., GAAP gross margin or GAAP operating expenses, respectively), as the information needed to provide that GAAP guidance and that reconciliation is not available to us without unreasonable effort or with reasonable certainty from a quantitative perspective. We expect that the foregoing missing information related to our outlook on a GAAP basis for 2026 is likely to result in significant changes relative to our non-GAAP outlook in respect of the subject financial measures.
