Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements regarding our
future business expectations, which are subject to the safe harbor
provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements are only predictions and may differ
materially from actual results due to a variety of factors including:
our ability to retain or increase users and engagement levels; our
reliance on advertising revenue; our dependency on mobile operating
systems, networks, and standards that we do not control; risks
associated with new product development and their introduction as well
as other new business initiatives; our emphasis on user growth and
engagement and the user experience over short-term financial results;
competition; litigation; privacy and regulatory concerns; risks
associated with acquisitions; security breaches; and our ability to
manage growth
and geographically-dispersed operations. These and other potential risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from the
results predicted are more fully detailed under the caption "Risk
Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 5, 2015, which is available on our Investor Relations website at investor.fb.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Additional information will also be set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December31, 2015. In addition, please note that the date of this press release is January27, 2016,
and any forward-looking statements contained herein are based on
assumptions that we
believe to be reasonable as of this date. We undertake no obligation to
update these statements as a result of new information or future events.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are
prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following
non-GAAP financial measures: revenue excluding foreign exchange effect
and advertising revenue excluding foreign exchange effect; non-GAAP
costs and expenses; non-GAAP income from operations; non-GAAP net
income; non-GAAP diluted shares; non-GAAP diluted earnings per share;
non-GAAP operating margin; non-GAAP effective tax rate; and free cash
flow. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to,
financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated
with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In
particular, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial measures
reflect the exclusion of items, specifically amortization of intangible
assets, share-based compensation expense, and payroll tax related to
share-based compensation expense, and the related income tax effects of
the aforementioned exclusions, that are recurring and will be reflected
in our financial results for the foreseeable future. In addition, these
measures may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other
companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. We
compensate for these limitations by providing specific information
regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial
measures.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with
useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our
business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where
certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow
for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management
in operating our business.
We exclude the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures:
Amortization of intangible assets. We amortize intangible
assets acquired in connection with acquisitions. We exclude these
amortization expenses because we do not believe these expenses are
reflective of ongoing operating results in the period. These amounts
arise from our prior acquisitions and have no direct correlation to the
operation of our business.
Share-based compensation expense. We exclude share-based
compensation expense because we believe that the non-GAAP financial
measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information
regarding operational performance. In particular, because of varying
available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the
variety of award types that companies can use under FASB ASC 718, we
believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude this
expense allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons between our
operating results and those of other companies. Accordingly, we believe
that excluding this expense provides investors and management with
greater visibility to the underlying performance of our business
operations, facilitates comparison of our results with other periods,
and may also facilitate comparison with the results of other companies
in our industry.
Payroll tax expense related to share-based compensation. We
exclude payroll tax expense related to share-based compensation expense
because, without excluding these tax expenses, investors would not see
the full effect that excluding share-based compensation expense had on
our operating results. These expenses are tied to the exercise or
vesting of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at
the time of vesting or exercise, which factors may vary from period to
period independent of the operating performance of our business. Similar
to share-based compensation expense, we believe that excluding this
payroll tax expense provides investors and management with greater
visibility to the underlying performance of our business operations and
facilitates comparison with other periods as well as the results of
other companies.
Income tax effect of amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation and related payroll tax expenses.
We believe excluding the income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments
assists investors and management in understanding the tax provision
related to those adjustments and provides useful supplemental
information regarding the underlying performance of our business
operations.
Foreign exchange effect on revenue. We translated revenue for the three months and year ended December31, 2015 using the prior year's monthly exchange rates for our settlement currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which we believe is a useful metric that facilitates comparison to our historical performance.
Purchases of property and equipment. We subtract purchases of
property and equipment in our calculation of free cash flow because we
believe that this methodology can provide useful supplemental
information to help investors better understand underlying trends in our
business.
For more information on our non-GAAP financial measures and a
reconciliation of such measures to the nearest GAAP measure, please see
the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Results to Nearest GAAP Measures" table
in this press release.

In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU
2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by
requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as
noncurrent on the balance sheet. We early adopted this standard
retrospectively and reclassified $280 million of our current deferred tax assets to noncurrent deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2014. This resulted in net adjustments of $62 million increase and $218 million decrease to our noncurrent deferred tax assets and noncurrent deferred tax liability, respectively, on our December 31, 2014 condensedconsolidated balance sheet.
