    We believe the inclusion of the
     above non-GAAP measure will be
     useful to investors because it will
     enhance the comparability of our
     current period results to prior
     periods' results without comparable
     charges. We also believe inclusion
     of this measure will enhance
     comparability of our results to
     results of our competitors and to
     the analysts' forecasts because the
     analysts typically forecast
     excluding the effect of share-
     based payment charge and above one
     time charges, the non-GAAP
     measure. In addition, our
     management uses this measure to
     evaluate our operating performance
     and compare our results to our
     competitors. Management also uses
     this measure as a metric to measure
     performance under our executive
     compensation program.

    The Company notes that non-GAAP
     financial measures are not based on
     a comprehensive set of accounting
     rules or principles. Instead, they
     are based on subjective
     determinations by management
     designed to supplement our GAAP
     financial measures. They are
     subject to a number of important
     limitations and should be
     considered only in conjunction with
     our consolidated financial
     statements prepared in accordance
     with GAAP. Among the limitations on
     the use of the non-GAAP measure
     are the following:
    - The exclusion of non-GAAP items
     can have a significant impact on
     reported GAAP net income and
     diluted net income per share.
    - Other companies may calculate
     non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP
     net income per share differently
     than MICROS does, limiting the
     usefulness of those measures for
     comparative purposes.
