Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation, the conference call and webcast may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including statements regarding our plans, strategies, current expectations,
operations and anticipated results of operations, both business and financial, all of which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements, market trends, or industry results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believe,"
"project," "potential," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "future," "opportunity," "plan," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions. Forward-looking
statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual
future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: (i) the effect of the business combination between Ginkgo Bioworks Holdings, Inc. ("Ginkgo") and Soaring
Eagle Acquisition Corp. ("Soaring Eagle") on Ginkgo's business relationships, performance, and business generally, (ii) risks that the business combination disrupts current plans of Ginkgo and potential difficulties in Ginkgo's
employee retention, (iii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Ginkgo related to its business combination with Soaring Eagle, (iv) volatility in the price of Ginkgo's securities now that it is a public
company due to a variety of factors, including changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which Ginkgo operates, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting
Ginkgo's business, changes in the combined capital structure and expectations associated with increases in the number of shares available for sale, (v) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations
after the completion of the business combination, and ability to identify and realize additional opportunities, (vi) the risk of downturns in demand for products using synthetic biology, (vii) the unpredictability of the duration of
the COVID-19 pandemic and the demand for COVID-19 testing and the commercial viability of our COVID-19 testing business, and (viii) changes to the biosecurity industry, including due to advancements in technology,
emerging competition and evolution in industry demands, standards and regulations. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties
described in the "Risk Factors" section of Ginkgo's quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 15, 2021, and other documents filed by Ginkgo from time to
time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Any
forward-looking statement made by us in this presentation, the conference call during which this presentation is reviewed and any discussions that follow speaks only as of the date on which it is made. You are cautioned not
to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Ginkgo assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or
otherwise. Ginkgo does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.

In this presentation, Ginkgo relies on and refers to certain information and statistics regarding the markets and industries in which Ginkgo competes. Such information and statistics are based on Ginkgo management's
estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources, including reports by market research firms and company filings. While Ginkgo believes such third-party information is reliable, there can be no assurance as to the accuracy
or completeness of the indicated information, and Ginkgo has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by the third-party sources.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain of the financial measures included in this presentation, including Adjusted EBITDA, have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and constitute "non-GAAP financial
measures" as defined by the SEC. Ginkgo has included these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes they provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating Ginkgo's financial performance and prospects.
Due to the nature and/or size of the items being excluded, such items do not reflect future gains, losses, expenses or benefits and are not indicative of our future operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures
are supplemental to, should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from non-GAAP
financial measures with comparable names used by other companies. See the reconciliation below for additional information regarding certain of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this presentation, including a
description of these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation of the historic measures to Ginkgo's most comparable GAAP financial measures.View entire presentation
