These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Please refer to the section titled "Forward-Looking Statements" below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
PagerDuty has not reconciled its expectations as to non-GAAP net income per share attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders to GAAP net loss per share attributable to PagerDuty, Inc. common stockholders because certain reconciling items such as stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, acquisition-related expenses, restructuring costs, gains or losses on extinguishment of convertible senior notes, adjustment attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest, and income tax effects and adjustments are out of PagerDuty's control or cannot be reasonably predicted. Accordingly, such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that these reconciling items could have a significant effect on PagerDuty's future GAAP results.
