- Qualys has not reconciled non-GAAP net income per diluted share guidance to GAAP net income per diluted share guidance.
- The actual dollar amount of reconciling items in the first quarter and full year 2023 is likely to have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP net income per diluted share in the first quarter and full year 2023.
