These measures are important to investors interested in changes from period to period in income before taxes, net income and net income per diluted share. For companies, such as Hilltop, business combinations can result in the recording of significant amounts of expenses related to those transactions. You should not view this disclosure as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and this disclosure is not necessarily comparable to that of other companies that use non-GAAP measures.
