Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Operating Metrics
To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Wix uses
the following non-GAAP financial measures: bookings, cumulative cohort bookings,, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP
operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, free cash flow, as
adjusted, free cash flow margins, non-GAAP R&D expenses, non-GAAP S&M expenses, non-GAAP G&A expenses, non-GAAP
operating expenses, non-GAAP cost of revenue expense, non-GAAP tax expense (collectively the "Non-GAAP financial
measures"). Measures presented on a constant currency or FX neutral basis have been adjusted to exclude the effect of y/y
changes in foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Bookings is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by adding the
change in deferred revenues for a particular period to revenues for the same period. Bookings include cash receipts for premium
subscriptions purchased by registered users as well, cash we collect for payments and additional products and services, as well
as payments due to us under the terms of contractual agreements for obligations we have fulfilled. Cash receipts for premium
subscriptions are deferred and recognized as revenues over the terms of the subscriptions. Cash receipts for payments and the
majority of the additional products and services (other than Google Workspace) are recognised as revenues upon receipt.
Committed payments are recognised as revenue as we fulfill our obligation under the terms of the contractual agreement. Non-
GAAP gross margin represents gross profit calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-based
compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization, divided by revenue. Non-GAAP operating income (loss)
represents operating income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-based
compensation expense, amortization, acquisition-related expenses and sales tax expense accrual and other G&A expenses
(income). Non-GAAP net income (loss) represents net loss calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of
share-based compensation expense, amortization, sales tax expense accrual and other G&A expenses (income), amortization of
debt discount and debt issuance costs and acquisition-related expenses and non-operating foreign exchange expenses
(income). Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share represents non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by the weighted average
number of shares used in computing GAAP loss per share. Free cash flow represents net cash provided by (used in) operating
activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow, as adjusted, represents free cash flow further adjusted to exclude capital
expenditures associated with our new headquarters. Free cash flow margins represent free cash flow divided by revenue.
Non-GAAP cost of revenue represents cost of revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-
based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization. Non-GAAP R&D expenses represent R&D
expenses calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation expense, acquisition-
related expenses and amortization. Non-GAAP S&M expenses represent S&M expenses calculated in accordance with GAAP as

compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization. Non-GAAP operating expenses represent operating
expenses calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation expense, acquisition-
related expenses and amortization.
The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the
financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures
for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes
that these measures provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial
performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its
financial and operational decision making.
For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliation tables provided below. The
accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP
financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. The Company is unable to provide
reconciliations of free cash flow, free cash flow, as adjusted, cumulative cohort bookings, non-GAAP gross margin, and non-
GAAP tax expense to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable
effort because items that impact those GAAP financial measures are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably
predicted. Such information may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future financial results.
Wix also uses Creative Subscriptions Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR), Business Solutions ARR and Gross Payment Volume
(GPV) as key operating metrics. Creative Subscriptions ARR is calculated as Creative Subscriptions Monthly Recurring Revenue
(MRR) multiplied by 12. Creative Subscriptions MRR is calculated as the total of (i) all active Creative Subscriptions in effect on
the last day of the period, multiplied by the monthly revenue of such Creative Subscriptions, other than domain registrations; (ii)
the average revenue per month from domain registrations; (iii) monthly revenue from partnership agreements. Business
Solutions ARR is calculated as Business Solutions MRR multiplied by 12. Business Solutions MRR is calculated as the total of all
active subscriptions to Ascend, G-Suite, TPAS, FB Ads or Wix apps products in effect on the last day of the period, multiplied by
the monthly revenue of such subscriptions. GPV includes the total value, in US dollars, of transactions facilitated by our platform.
