Exhibit 99.1
1.We note your presentation of Adjusted operating income that includes an adjustment to
exclude retention plan costs for fiscal year 2023 and for the subsequent quarterly periods
in fiscal year 2024. Please tell us how you determined that the retention plan costs are not
normal operating costs and are consistent with Question 100.01 of the Non-GAAP
Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations. As part of your response, tell us how these
retention costs differ from other compensation paid to your employees, including the
material terms of the payments and whether any additional services are required to be
provided by the employees above and beyond their normal employment.
As previously requested in our letter dated November 4, 2022, please remove the
characterization of your separation costs or any other types of costs as non-recurring
unless such costs have not occurred in multiple periods and are not reasonably likely to
recur within two years. Refer to Rule 100(b) of Regulation G and Question 102.03 of the 2.
