Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On April 30, 2015, Ellie Mae, Inc. (“Ellie Mae”) announced its financial position and results of operations as of and for its first quarter ended March 31, 2015 in a press release that is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
To supplement Ellie Mae's financial results presented on a U.S. GAAP basis, Ellie Mae's press release contains non-GAAP financial information, including adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. Ellie Mae believes that this non-GAAP presentation makes it easier for investors to compare current and historical periods' operating results and that it assists investors in comparing Ellie Mae's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that it does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is contained in the attached press release.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K furnished pursuant to Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. It may only be incorporated by reference in another filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if such subsequent filing specifically references the information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Report.
