Reporting adjustments to GAAP numbers (i.e. the end result being a non-GAAP number) in a Press Release or the equivalent is very different than merely reporting non-GAAP numbers, which I assume is not the case.

All the trading is done on the earnings release and non-gaap numbers, the statements themselves are whatever. As long as you aren't a dying business trying to fudge the non-GAAP and give it greater prominence, worst case you get a comment.
