ANYWHERE."#2DISCLAIMER The information, opinions, estimates, projections, forecasts, targets, or prospects contained in this presentation are provided as at the date of this presentation and are subject to change without notice. This presentation contains financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepting accounting principles ("GAAP") that have been extracted without material adjustment from audited GAAP financial statements and/or extracted or derived from unaudited accounting records that have been used to prepare GAAP financial statements. This presentation also contains certain non-GAAP financial measures which have not been and will not be audited. These non-GAAP financial measures are not recognized measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP, but are measures used by the management of Advent Technology Holdings, Inc. ("Advent") to monitor the underlying performance of Advent's business and operations. These non-GAAP measures may not be indicative of Advent's historical operating results nor are such measures meant to be predicative of future results. These measures and ratios may not be comparable to those used by other companies under the same or similar names. As such, undue reliance should not be placed on these non-GAAP financial measures. Advent is not able to provide a reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial guidance to the corresponding GAAP measures without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts necessary for such a reconciliation. Certain financial information contained herein is unaudited and is based on internal records and/or estimates. This presentation contains certain forward-looking information which may not be included in future public filings or investor guidance. The inclusion of financial information or metrics in this presentation should not be construed as a commitment by Advent to provide guidance on such information in the future.
