Forward-Looking Statements This presentation, and the accompanying oral presentation (collectively, this "presentation"), contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements include, but are not limited to, Bakkt's guidance for 2022 and statements regarding Bakkt's plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect to future operations, products, services and use of proceeds from the business combination, among others. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "will," "likely," "expect," "continue," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "intend," "plan," "projection," "outlook" or words of similar meaning. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of Bakkt's management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and beyond Bakkt's control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in such forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements relate only to events as of the date on which such statements are made and are based on information available to us as of the date of this presentation. Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this presentation to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements: (i) a delay or failure to realize the expected benefits from the business combination; (ii) risks related to disruption of management time from ongoing business operations due to post-closing business combination matters; (iii) the impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; (iv) changes in the markets in which Bakkt competes, including with respect to its competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes; (v) changes in the markets that Bakkt targets; (vi) risk that Bakkt may not be able to execute its growth strategies, including identifying and executing acquisitions; (vii) risks relating to data security; and (viii) risk that Bakkt may not be able to develop and maintain effective internal controls. 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 the definitive proxy statement/prospectus filed by Bakkt (under the name VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings) on September 17, 2021 and other filings that Bakkt may, from time-to-time, make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Basis of Presentation "Predecessor" information represents the results of Bakkt Holdings, LLC prior to the business combination with VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings (VIH), which closed on October 15, 2021. "Successor" information represents the results of Bakkt Holdings, Inc. from the date the business combination closed through the end of the applicable period. "Combined" information represents the combination of Predecessor and Successor for the applicable period. Bakkt has provided the Combined information as management uses such information when evaluating the company's results for periods that straddle the closing of the business combination. Combined information has not been calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). For ease of comparison, unless otherwise indicated, all financial and operational results included in this presentation that include the results of 4Q21 reflect the Combined results for 4Q21. Presentation of net loss for the Successor reflects management's current estimate for income tax benefit (expense), which is subject to change pending finalization of purchase accounting estimates related to the business combination as permitted under Accounting Standards Codification 805 - Business Combinations. In addition to the Combined information, this presentation also includes Adjusted EBITDA, which is a financial measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. For more information regarding Adjusted EBITDA, please see slide 23. bakkt 2
