RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
TO COMPARABLE GAAP MEASURES
(Unaudited, in millions, except per share amounts)
The following is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by us to describe our financial results determined in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). An explanation of these measures
is also included below under the heading “Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding
the underlying performance of our business operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to,
and not as a substitute for, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that
these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other
measures to illustrate performance in the future. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts
associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Please note that these figures may not sum exactly due to rounding.
Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin and Service Automation Rate
Set forth below is a presentation of our “Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit” and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin,” which represents
Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of total revenue and our “Service Automation Profit” and “Service Automation Rate,”
which represents Service Automation Profit as a percentage of total revenue.

(1) We currently do not anticipate exit costs, including restructuring or gain or loss on investments during fiscal year 2017.
However, if these items occur in fiscal year 2017, we would exclude these items from our Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income and
Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income Margin.
Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or
GAAP. However, management believes that, in order to properly understand our short-term and long-term financial and operational
trends, investors may wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or non-recurring items, when used as a supplement to
financial performance measures in accordance with GAAP. These items result from facts and circumstances that vary in frequency and
impact on continuing operations. Management also uses results of operations before such items to evaluate the operating performance
of athenahealth and compare it against past periods, make operating decisions, and serve as a basis for strategic planning. These
non-GAAP financial measures provide management with additional means to understand and evaluate the operating results and trends in
our ongoing business by eliminating certain non-cash expenses and other items that management believes might otherwise make
comparisons of our ongoing business with prior periods more difficult, obscure trends in ongoing operations, or reduce management’s
ability to make useful forecasts. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional means of evaluating
period-over-period operating performance. In addition, management understands that some investors and financial analysts find this
information helpful in analyzing our financial and operational performance and comparing this performance to our peers and
competitors.
In Q4 2016, management redefined “Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit” as total revenue, less cost of revenue, plus
(1) stock-based compensation expense allocated to cost of revenue, (2) amortization of purchased intangible assets allocated to
cost of revenue, (3) integration and transactions costs allocated to cost of revenue, and (4) exit costs, including restructuring
costs allocated to cost of revenue, and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin” as Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit as a
percentage of total revenue. Management defines “Service Automation Profit,” formerly referred to as Non-GAAP Adjusted
Gross Profit, as total revenue, less cost of revenue, plus (1) stock-based compensation expense allocated to cost of revenue, (2)
amortization of purchased intangible assets allocated to cost of revenue, (3) integration and transaction costs allocated to cost
of revenue, (4) exit costs, including restructuring costs allocated to cost of revenue, (5) amortization and depreciation expense
allocated to cost of revenue, and (6) overhead expense allocated to cost of revenue, and “Service Automation Rate,”
formerly referred to as Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin, as Service Automation Profit as a percentage of total revenue. Management
considers these non-GAAP financial measures and metrics to be important indicators of our operational strength and performance of
our business and a good measure of our historical operating trends. Moreover, management believes that these measures and metrics
enable investors and financial analysts to closely monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing
business operations.
Management defines “Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income” as the sum of GAAP net income (loss) before provision
for (benefit from) income taxes; total other expense; stock-based compensation expense; amortization of capitalized stock-based
compensation related to software development; amortization of purchased intangible assets; integration and transaction costs; exit
costs, including restructuring costs; and gain or loss on investments; and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income
Margin” as Non-GAAP Adjusted Operating Income as a percentage of total revenue. Management defines “Non-GAAP
Adjusted Net Income” as the sum of GAAP net income (loss) before stock-based compensation expense; amortization of
capitalized stock-based compensation related to software development; amortization of purchased intangible assets; integration and
transaction costs; exit costs, including restructuring costs; and gain or loss on investments and any tax impact related to these
preceding items; and an adjustment to the tax provision for the non-GAAP tax rate and “Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income
per Diluted Share” as Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Management
considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important indicators of our operational strength and performance of our business
and a good measure of our historical operating trends. Moreover, management believes that these measures enable investors and
financial analysts to closely monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business
operations.
Management excludes or adjusts each of the items identified below from the applicable non-GAAP financial measure or metric
referenced above for the reasons set forth with respect to that excluded item:
- Stock-based compensation expense and amortization of capitalized stock-based compensation related to software
development — excluded because these are non-cash expenditures that management does not consider part of ongoing operating
results when assessing the performance of our business, and also because the total amount of the expenditure is partially outside
of our control because it is based on factors such as stock price, volatility, and interest rates, which may be unrelated to our
performance during the period in which the expenses are incurred.
- Amortization of purchased intangible assets — purchased intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful
lives and generally cannot be changed or influenced by management after the acquisition. Accordingly, this item is not considered
by management in making operating decisions. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the performance of our
ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred.
- Integration and transaction costs — Integration costs are the severance payments and retention bonuses for certain
employees related to specific transactions. Transaction costs are costs related to strategic transactions. Accordingly,
management believes that such expenses do not have a direct correlation to future business operations, and therefore, these costs
are not considered by management in making operating decisions. Management does not believe such charges accurately reflect the
performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such charges are incurred.
- Exit costs, including restructuring costs — represents costs related to workforce reductions and to terminate
certain lease or other agreements for strategic realignment purposes. Management does not believe such costs accurately reflect
the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such costs are incurred.
- Gain or loss on investments — represents gains or losses on the sales, conversions, or impairments of our
investments, such as marketable securities and More Disruption Please Accelerator investments. Management does not believe such
gains or losses accurately reflect the performance of our ongoing operations for the period in which such gains or losses are
reported.
- Non-GAAP tax rate — We use a non-GAAP tax rate of 40% to normalize the tax impact to our Non-GAAP Adjusted Net
Income per Diluted Share based on the fact that a relatively small change in pre-tax GAAP income (loss) in any one period could
result in a volatile GAAP effective tax rate.
