37 This presentation includes certain non - GAAP financial measures, including pre - provision net revenue, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted), return on average assets, return on average tangible common equity, tangible common equity, tangible assets, the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible book value per share, net interest margin, and efficiency ratio . These non - GAAP financial measures and any other non - GAAP financial measures that are discussed in this presentation should not be considered in isolation, and should be considered as additions to, and not substitutes for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP . There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non - GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents . For example, other companies may calculate non - GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of the Company’s non - GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison . The following is a reconciliation of the non - GAAP financial measures used in (or conveyed orally during) this presentation to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures .
