Words such as, but not limited to, "look forward to," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "would," "should," "could," and similar expressions or words, identify forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors that are beyond our control, including, without limitation, the risks set forth under Part II Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed May 10, 2023 and our other SEC filings. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. No representations or warranties (expressed or implied) are made about the accuracy of such forward-looking statements. Certain information contained in this presentation relates to or is based on studies, publications, surveys and other data obtained from third-party sources and the Company's own internal estimates and research. While the Company believes these third-party sources to be reliable as of the date of this presentation, it has not independently verified, and makes no representation as to the adequacy, fairness, accuracy, or completeness of, any information obtained from third-party sources. In addition, all of the market data included in this presentation involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and there can be no guarantee as to the accuracy or reliability of such assumptions. Finally, while we believe our own internal research is reliable, such research has not been verified by any independent source. This presentation includes non-GAAP financial measures which have certain limitations and should not be considered in isolation, or as alternatives to or substitutes for, financial measures determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). The non-GAAP measures as defined by us may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. Our presentation of such measures, which may include adjustments to exclude unusual or non-recurring items, should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these or other unusual or non-recurring items. See the "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation" slide for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The software is advanced and amazing at helping digital marketers find site issues and fix them. Senior Content Strategist, Upwork Global Inc. Stephanie Marie Delgado It's literally the number one tool we use. Semrush is our go-to source for establishing the value of keywords. Be it for our blog or for the product taxonomy, Semrush lets us see what the organic search vendor is actually looking for around that product topic idea and a quantifiable result. SEO Director, Thrive Market What I really appreciate about Semrush is how instructive it is. If you don't know how to tackle a technical issue, the Site Audit tool will always have the answer. Search Marketing Specialist, Lush Cosmetics Laure Hessin When we started The Cycleverse, we had big ambitions and grand visions but very little traffic. By focusing all our efforts on SEO and using Semrush, we, in only one year, grew our traffic by 200x and became one of the biggest players in the German market. CMO, The Cycleverse Yannick Van Noy With the help of Semrush we've grown our Organic traffic by 20% despite competing with the toughest players in the industry. SEO Content Executive, Air Europa Davina Alemany Segui Even if it's on the national level and we want to bring it to the local level, Semrush's keyword data is a game-changer. We're not just stabbing keywords on a wall, we have the data to back it up. I'm a firm believer that if you follow the SEO Writing Assistant, it will yield results.
