non-bonus payroll cost in analyzing, reporting and forecasting the company’s workers’ compensation costs. three months ended june 30, six months ended june 30, - - - - - - ebitda represents net income

accordance with gaap. insperity includes non-bonus payroll, ebitda, adjusted ebitda, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted net income per share of common stock in this press release because the company believes they are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency related to the costs incurred under the company’s workers’ compensation program and the company’s operating performance during the periods presented. investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the non-gaap financial measures used in this press release to their most directly comparable gaap
