The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures are presented in the following schedules. The Bank considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results and provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to assess the performance and financial position of the Bank and for presentations of Bank performance to investors. The Bank further believes that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors to assess the performance of the Bank on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, and are not required to be uniformly applied by individual entities. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. The following are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Form 10-Q and a discussion of the reasons for which management uses these non-GAAP measures: Return on Average Tangible Common Equity - this schedule also includes "net earnings applicable to common shareholders, excluding the effects of the adjustment, net of tax" and "average tangible common equity." Return on average tangible common equity is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides useful information to management and others about the Bank's use of shareholders' equity. Management believes the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information about performance because they present measures of those assets that can generate income.
