| (1) | As a result of accounting guidance adopted in Q1 2017, we retrospectively adjusted our consolidated statements of cash flows to reclassify excess tax benefits from financing activities to operating activities. The amount of the adjustment was $305 million for TTM Q1 2016, $323 million for TTM Q2 2016, $401 million for TTM Q3 2016, and $829 million for TTM Q4 2016. | |||
| (2) | Free cash flow is cash flow from operations reduced by “Purchases of property and equipment, including internal-use software and website development, net,” which is included in cash flow from investing activities. | |||
| (3) | Free cash flow less lease principal repayments is free cash flow reduced by “Principal repayments of capital lease obligations,” and “Principal repayments of finance lease obligations,” which are included in cash flow from financing activities. | |||
| (4) | Free cash flow less finance lease principal repayments and assets acquired under capital leases is free cash flow reduced by “Principal repayments of finance lease obligations,” which is included in cash flow from financing activities, and property and equipment acquired under capital leases. In this measure, property and equipment acquired under capital leases is reflected as if these assets had been purchased with cash, which is not the case as these assets have been leased. | |||
| (5) | Average Total Assets minus Current Liabilities (excluding current portion of Long-Term Debt and current portion of capital lease obligations and finance lease obligations) over five quarter ends. | |||
