DXC does not provide reconciliations of non-GAAP measures included in its guidance because certain key information necessary for such reconciliations—most notably the impact of significant non-recurring items—is unavailable without unreasonable effort or may not be available at all. As a result, DXC believes any such reconciliation would not be meaningful.
