¹The guidance is only effective as of October 15, 2025 and should not be considered updated or affirmed unless and until we publicly announce updated or affirmed guidance. We undertake no obligation to update our guidance. This guidance reflects our current expectations and assumptions and our actual results and timing may vary materially based on various factors that include, but are not limited to, those discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 as well as other risks and uncertainties set forth from time to time in the reports we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  

²Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes operating and non-operating special charges, unrealized (gains) losses on investments, net, and income tax benefit on adjustments, net. We are not providing a target for or a reconciliation to diluted earnings per share, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because we are unable to predict the excluded items noted above contained in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts, and therefore we also are not able to determine the probable significance of such items
