We define free cash flow as operating cash flow less capital expenditures. We believe this metric provides a better view of our working capital management than unlevered free cash flow. Therefore, we will guide to free cash flow going forward. You can find a comprehensive explanation of non-GAAP measures at the end of this press release.

We expect basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding to be approximately 136 million in Q1 and 139 million for the full year 2020.
