Notes:
(1) We have historically incurred sales tax expense in jurisdictions where we expected to remit sales tax payments but were not yet collecting from customers. During the second half of 2021, we began collecting sales tax from customers in the
required jurisdictions. The sales tax liability presented herein represents the tax liability for sales tax prior to the date we began collecting sales tax from customers reduced by abatements received, inclusive of any penalties and interest
assessed by the jurisdictions. The remaining historic sales tax liability payments were made during the year ended December 31, 2022.
(2) This consists of legal, accounting, tax and other professional fees; personnel-related costs, which consist of retention bonuses; and integration costs. Transaction costs recognized in 2023 were primarily related to a secondary offering of
our Class A common stock and our acquisitions and strategic investments. Transaction costs recognized in 2022 were primarily related to our acquisitions and strategic investments, the refinancing of the June 2017 First Lien Loan with the
February 2022 First Lien Loan and our exchange offering of shares of our Class A common stock for properly tendered public warrants.
(3)
We incur equity-based compensation expenses for profits interests issued prior to the merger transaction with Horizon Acquisition Corporation (the "Merger Transaction") and equity granted pursuant to the 2021 Incentive Award Plan,
which we do not consider to be indicative of our core operating performance.
(4) Losses incurred resulted from the extinguishment of the June 2017 First Lien Loan in February 2022.
(5) This relates to external legal costs, settlement costs and insurance recoveries, which were unrelated to our core business operations.View entire presentation
