In addition to continuous improvement to the Company's proprietary underwriting such as the Prophet Machine Learning Model launched in 2022, receivables originated in 2022 performed better than expected resulting in a benefit being recognized during 1Q23. The Company's pursuit of topline growth in 2023 is anticipated to cause an increase in the Provision for Credit Losses. The Company plans to proactively manage this marginal uptick by evolving its Prophet Model.

The positive QoQ and YoY performance was driven by revenue and cost initiatives launched in 2022, most notably the launch of Sezzle Premium and improved consumer underwriting (e.g., Prophet Model). These favorable economics position the Company well, as it pursues growth opportunities in 2023. Transaction Related Costs is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to the sum of Transaction Expense, Provision for Credit Losses, Net Interest Expense, and write-off of non-recurring unamortized debt issuance costs.

As the Company pursues growth opportunities and implements its next round of initiatives in 2023, non- transaction related operating expenses are expected to increase modestly. ¹Non-Transaction Related Operating Expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to Total Operating Expenses less Reimbursement of Merger-Related Costs, Transaction Expense and Provision for Credit Losses.

At the end of the quarter, the Company had US$84.8 million in Notes Receivables (net) and US$65.3 million in Merchant Accounts Payable, of which US$51.3 million was attributable to the Merchant Interest Program.

Definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and summaries of the reasons why management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to the company and investors are as follows: Total income less transaction related costs is defined as GAAP total income less transaction related costs. Transaction related costs is the sum of GAAP transaction expense, provision for credit losses, and net interest expense less non-recurring charges as detailed in the reconciliation table of total income less transaction related costs to GAAP total income. We believe that total income less transaction related costs is a useful financial measure to both management and investors for evaluating the economic value of orders processed on the Sezzle Platform; Adjusted EBTDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss), adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring charges including depreciation, amortization, equity and incentive-based compensation, and merger-related costs as detailed in the reconciliation table of adjusted EBTDA to GAAP net income (loss) below. We believe that this financial measure is a useful measure for period-to-period comparison of our business by removing the effect of certain non-cash and non-recurring charges that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income (loss), adjusted for certain non-cash and non-recurring charges including depreciation, amortization, equity and incentive-based compensation, and merger-related costs, as well as net interest expense as detailed in the reconciliation table of GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA. We believe that this financial measure is a useful measure for period-to-period comparison of our business by removing the effect of certain non-cash and non-recurring charges, as well as funding costs, that may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business. Additionally, we have included these non-GAAP measures because they are key measures used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, guide future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of resources. Therefore, we believe these measures provide useful information to investors and other users of this press release to understand and evaluate our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, should be considered supplemental in nature, and are not meant as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These limitations include the following: esn Total income less transaction related costs is not intended to be measures of operating profit or cash flow profitability as they exclude key operating expenses such as personnel, general and administrative, and third- party technology and data, which have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses. Adjusted EBTDA and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain recurring, non-cash charges such as depreciation, amortization, and equity and incentive-based compensation, which have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, recurring GAAP expenses. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain significant cash inflows and outflows, such as merger-related costs (which are comprised of legal fees in connection with our terminated proposed merger with Zip Co Limited) and reimbursements for such merger-related costs, which have a significant impact on our working capital and cash. Adjusted EBITDA excludes net interest expense, which has a significant impact on our GAAP net income, working capital, and cash. Long-lived assets being depreciated or amortized may need to be replaced in the future, and these non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect the capital expenditures needed for such replacements, or for any new capital expenditures or commitments. These non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect income taxes that may represent a reduction in cash available to us. Non-GAAP measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate the non-GAAP financial measures differently or not at all, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP, and these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered alongside other financial performance measures, including net income (loss) and other financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. We encourage you to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
