JMHO, but I think that even sophisticated investors sometimes don't read the quarterly reports. Of course that's stretching the term "sophisticated" a bit.

Granted, the non GAAP earnings is a known value to investors, but by being non GAAP the weight of the earnings toward valuation of the stock is lessened. Once those same earnings are GAAP, the p/e and projected p/e's are affected and the full weight of the earnings is given recognition in evaluating the investment potential of the stock.
