Adjusted EPS was computed independently for each reconciling item presented; therefore, the sum of Adjusted EPS for each line item may not equal total Adjusted EPS due to rounding.

(2)

 

Adjusted EPS numerator includes $1,723 and $1,716 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $5,164 and $5,157 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to interest expense, net of tax, attributable to the convertible senior notes using the if-converted method.
