These financial metrics include revenue, gross margin, operating expenses and operating income determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, we monitor and project cash flow to determine our sources and uses for working capital to fund our operations. We also monitor Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, and design wins. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss adjusted

Adjusted EBITDA. Our management and board of directors use Adjusted EBITDA to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short-term and long-term operating and financing plans. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information for investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and our board of directors. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to, not as superior to, or as a substitute for, net income reported in accordance with GAAP. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated:

*Adjusted net income.*Our management and board of directors use Adjusted net income to assess and evaluate our overall performance and financial trends, inform the annual budgeting process, and guide both short-term and long-term operational and strategic planning.

Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered alongside, but not as a replacement for or superior to, net income as reported in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Adjusted net income for the periods presented:
