Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Contribution
Profit, which we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures, which may not be
comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should
not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before the
impact of interest income or expense (net), income tax provision or benefit, and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation;
transaction-related costs; litigation, settlement and related costs; advocacy and other related legal expenses; gain or loss on remeasurement of warrant liabilities; and other non-recurring and
non-operating costs or income. We define and calculate Adjusted Gross Margin as Adjusted Gross Profit (which we define and calculate as Gross Profit before the impact of amortization of
acquired intangible assets; depreciation and amortization; and stock-based compensa on) divided by net revenue. We define and calculate Adjusted Earnings Per Share as basic and diluted
loss per share attributable to common stockholders before the impact of amortization of acquired intangible assets; stock-based compensation; transaction-related costs; litigation, settlement
and related costs; advocacy and other related legal expenses; gain or loss on remeasurement of warrant liabilities; and other non-recurring and non-operating costs or income. We define and
calculate Contribution Profit as Adjusted Gross Profit less external marketing expense. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Earnings
Per Share to their most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP are provided in the Appendix of this presentation.
