Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures |
|||||||||||||||
|
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in |
|||||||||||||||
|
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted, as applicable, to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring and other one-time costs; non-recurring litigation expense; acquisition-related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions, and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses; income tax expense (benefit); and other income (expense), net, which primarily consists of interest income from our short-term investments and cash deposits, and realized foreign currency gains and losses. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management and our board of directors to evaluate and compare our core operating results, including our operating efficiencies, from period to period. Additionally, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an input into our calculation of our annual employee bonus plans and performance-based restricted stock units. |
|||||||||||||||
|
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenue. Adjusted EBITDA Margin based on Gross Profit is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Gross Profit, and Net Income (Loss) Margin based on Gross Profit is calculated as Net Income (Loss) divided by Gross Profit. Adjusted EBITDA growth represents the year-over-year percentage change in Adjusted EBITDA. These measures are used by management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating efficiency. |
|||||||||||||||
|
We define Adjusted operating expenses as total operating expenses adjusted, as applicable, to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring and other one-time costs; non-recurring litigation expense; and acquisition-related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions, and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses. We believe that Adjusted operating expenses is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management and our board of directors to evaluate and compare our core operating results, including our operating efficiencies, from period to period. |
|||||||||||||||
|
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Growth, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin based on Gross Profit, Net Income (Loss) Margin based on Gross Profit, and Adjusted operating expenses should not be considered in isolation, or construed as an alternative to net loss, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of the Company's liquidity. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than |

(1) Restructuring and other one-time costs include the costs related to the CEO transition and one-time retention bonuses provided to other key employees. These bonuses have service requirements and are expensed over the requisite service period. |
|||||||||||||||
|
(2) Acquisition-related expenses, including transaction costs, integration costs, and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses, are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. These expenses are specific to a discrete transaction and do not reflect our ongoing core operations or the recurring expenses required to sustain and operate our business. |
|||||||||||||||
|
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Growth to the comparable GAAP measure for the third quarter and full year of 2026 is not available due to the challenges and impracticability with estimating some of the items as such items cannot be reasonably predicted and could be significant. Because of those challenges, reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort. |
