95、PS excluding certain itemsThe Company uses diluted EPS excluding(1)certain items affecting comparability of results from period to period and(2)amortization of TFCF and Hulu intangible assets,including purchase accounting step-up adjustments for released content,to facilitate the evaluation of the p

96、erformance of the Companys operations exclusive of these items,and these adjustments reflect how senior management is evaluating segment performance.The Company believes that providing diluted EPS exclusive of certain items impacting comparability is useful to investors,particularly where the impact

97、 of the excluded items is significant in relation to reported earnings and because the measure allows for comparability between periods of the operating performance of the Companys business and allows investors to evaluate the impact of these items separately.12The Company further believes that prov
