1 For the period ended February 28, 2014, represents HSBC's share of GPAP dividends declared and costs associated with the debt refinancing that was completed on February 28, 2014.

2 Represents adjustments to cost of service to exclude acquisition intangible amortization expense from net income and the related income tax benefit.

We supplemented our reporting of income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting income and the related earnings per share for the three months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding amounts related to the processing system intrusion, acquisition intangible amortization, HSBC's share of dividends declared and costs associated with debt refinancing. We exclude these charges in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of income and earnings per share on a cash earnings basis reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

We supplemented our reporting of income and the related earnings per share information determined in accordance with GAAP by reporting income and the related earnings per share for the nine months ended February 28, 2014 and 2013 on a "cash earnings" basis in this earnings release as a measure to help evaluate performance. We calculated income and earnings per share on a cash basis by excluding amounts related to the processing system intrusion, acquisition intangible amortization, one-time charges related to employee termination benefits and resolution of a contract related contingency, a one-time credit related to the sale of an interest in a business, HSBC's share of GPAP dividends declared, and costs associated with debt refinancing. In the nine months ended February 2013, we also adjusted the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to include HSBC's share of GPAP net income. We exclude these charges in order to more clearly focus on the factors we believe are pertinent to the daily management of our operations. Our income and earnings per share reported on a cash earnings basis should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, income and earnings per share determined in accordance with GAAP. Our measures of income and earnings per share on a cash earnings basis reflect management’s judgment of particular items, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
1 Fiscal 2014 reflects $0.48 of acquisition-related intangibles amortization and $0.10 of one-time charges (refer to Schedule 7, footnote 2 for details). Acquisition-related intangibles amortization and non-recurring items accounted for $0.57 in fiscal 2013 and processing intrusion costs were $0.32. Intangible amortization does not include amortization related to the recent March 4, 2014 PayPros acquisition as the allocation of the purchase price has not yet been finalized.
