18 GAAP Reconciliation CMS Energy provides historical financial results on both a reported (GAAP) and adjusted (non - GAAP) basis and provides forward - lo oking guidance on an adjusted basis. During an oral presentation, references to “earnings” are on an adjusted basis. All references to net income ref er to net income available to common stockholders and references to earnings per share are on a diluted basis. Adjustments could include items such as disc ont inued operations, asset sales, impairments, restructuring costs, business optimization initiative, major enterprise resource planning software implementatio ns, changes in accounting principles, voluntary separation program, changes in federal and state tax policy, regulatory items from prior years, unrealized gains or lo sses from mark - to - market adjustments, recognized in net income related to NorthStar Clean Energy's interest expense, or other items. Management views adj usted earnings as a key measure of the company’s present operating financial performance and uses adjusted earnings for external communications with ana lysts and investors. Internally, the company uses adjusted earnings to measure and assess performance. Because the company is not able to estimate th e impact of specific line items, which have the potential to significantly impact, favorably or unfavorably, the company's reported earnings in future per iods, the company is not providing reported earnings guidance nor is it providing a reconciliation for the comparable future period earnings. The adju ste d earnings should be considered supplemental information to assist in understanding our business results, rather than as a substitute for the reported earnin gs. 18
