includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (&#147;<U>GAAP</U>&#148;). Free cash flow for the
first quarter of fiscal 2014 and the first quarter of fiscal 2013, in each case excluding cash flow for capital expenditures, are financial measures that are not defined by GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, net cash

management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in Harris&#146; business and to understand Harris&#146; performance. In addition, Harris may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a
guide in its forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning process and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Please refer to Harris&#146; financial statements and accompanying footnotes for additional
information and for a presentation of results in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. </P>

On October 29, 2013, Harris Corporation
("
Harris
") issued a press release announcing, among other things, its results of operations and financial condition as of and for its first quarter of fiscal 2014 and reiterating its previous guidance range regarding expected
income from continuing operations per diluted share for fiscal 2014 and its previous guidance range regarding expected revenue for fiscal 2014. The full text of the press release and related financial tables is furnished herewith as
Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The press release includes a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including free cash flow for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and
the first quarter of fiscal 2013, in each case excluding cash flow for capital expenditures. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company's historical or future performance that excludes or
includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("
GAAP
"). Free cash flow for the
first quarter of fiscal 2014 and the first quarter of fiscal 2013, in each case excluding cash flow for capital expenditures, are financial measures that are not defined by GAAP and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, net cash
provided by operating activities and other financial measures on a GAAP basis. Harris has included in its press release a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in the press release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measure.
Harris management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures,
provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. Harris
management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze trends in Harris' business and to understand Harris' performance. In addition, Harris may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as a
