Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U,S, GAAP, we use free cash flows and foreign exchange ("FX") neutral measures as non-GAAP measures.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U,S, GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with U,S, GAAP, These non-GAAP financial measures should only be used to evaluate our results of operations in conjunction with the most comparable U,S, GAAP financial measures.
Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U,S, GAAP financial measures can be found in the tables included in this quarterly report.
Non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of our current financial performance, Specifically, we believe that free cash flow provides useful information to both management and investors by excluding payments for the acquisition of property and equipment, of intangible assets and of businesses net of cash acquired, that may not be indicative of our core operating results, In addition, we report free cash flows to investors because we believe that the inclusion of this measure provides consistency in our financial reporting.
Free cash flow represents cash from operating activities less payment and advances for the acquisition of property and equipment net of financial liabilities, intangible assets and acquired businesses net of cash acquired, We consider free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by our operations after the purchases of property and equipment, of intangible assets and of acquired businesses net of cash acquired, A limitation of the utility of free cash flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period.
The following table shows a reconciliation of Operating Cash Flows to Free Cash Flows:
View dataThree-month Periods Ended December 31, (In millions) 2016 2015 Net Cash provided by Operating Activities $ 42.6 $ 110.1 Advance for property and equipment (2.3 ) (5.6 ) Purchase of intangible assets (0.4 ) (0.2 ) Purchase of property and equipment (13.0 ) (20.1 ) Free cash flow 26.9 84.2
(*) The table above may not total due to rounding.
The Company that reconciliation of FX neutral measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure provides investors an overall understanding of our current financial performance and its prospects for the future, Specifically, we believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding the foreign currency exchange rate impact that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook.
The FX neutral measures were calculated by using the average monthly exchange rates for each month during 2015 and applying them to the corresponding months in 2016, so as to calculate what our results would have been had exchange rates remained stable from one year to the next, The table below excludes intercompany allocation FX effects, Finally, these measures do not include any other macroeconomic effect such as local currency inflation effects, the impact on impairment calculations or any price adjustment to compensate local currency inflation or devaluations.
