GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non - GAAP Financial Measures 34 OUR NAME IS OUR MISSION. We recorded a non - routine expense of $ 703 , 000 for the first quarter of 2014 resulting from the correction of our accounting for vested stock options previously granted to members of our advisory boards in our Dothan, Huntsville and Montgomery, Alabama markets, and we recorded a non - routine expense of $ 1 . 8 million for the second quarter of 2014 resulting from a correction of our accounting for vested stock options previously granted to members of our advisory boards in our Mobile, Alabama and Pensacola, Florida markets . This change in accounting treatment is a non - cash item and does not impact our operating activities or cash from operations . The non - GAAP financial measures included in this presentation twelve months ended December 31 , 2014 are “core net income available to common stockholders,” “core diluted earnings per share,” “core return on average assets,” “core return on average equity,” “core return on average common equity,” “core efficiency ratio” and “core non - interest expense to average assets . ” Each of these seven core financial measures excludes the impact of the non - routine expenses attributable to the correction of our accounting for vested stock options . None of the other periods included in this presentation are affected by this correction . “Core net income available to common stockholders” is defined as net income, adjusted by the net effect of the non - routine expense, available to common stockholders . “Core diluted earnings per share” is defined as net income available to common stockholders, adjusted by the net effect of the non - routine expense, divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding . “Core return on average assets” is defined as net income, adjusted by the net effect of the non - routine expense, divided by average total assets . “Core return of average equity” is defined as net income, adjusted by the net effect of the non - routine expense, divided by average equity . “Core return of average common equity” is defined as net income, adjusted by the net effect of the non - routine expense, divided by average common equity . “Core efficiency ratio” is defined as non - interest expense, adjusted by the effect of the non - routine expense, divided by the sum of net interest income plus non - interest income . “Core non - interest expense to average assets” is defined as non - interest expense, adjusted by the effect of the non - routine expense, divided by average assets . We believe these non - GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP ; however, we acknowledge that these non - GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations . As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non - GAAP financial measures that other companies, including those in our industry, use . The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of the non - GAAP financial measures for the twelve months ended December 31 , 2014 . Dollars are in thousands, except share and per share data .
