     Exhibit 99.1 furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K includes both financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures include WebMD’s income before taxes, non-cash and other items and related per share amounts. Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K includes a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the GAAP financial measures. Exhibit 99.3 to this Current Report includes a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP information to forward-looking GAAP financial information, each of which is expected to be discussed on the Analyst and Investor Conference Call referred to in Exhibit 99.1. WebMD believes that the above non-GAAP measures, and changes in those measures, are meaningful indicators of WebMD’s performance and provide additional information that WebMD management finds useful in evaluating such performance and in planning for future periods. Accordingly, WebMD believes that such additional information may be useful to investors. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and not as an alternative for, the GAAP financial measures.
