* About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements,
which are prepared and presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”),
we present Contribution Margin (Loss) and Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Tax Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”),
which are non-GAAP financial measures, as measures of our performance. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended
to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, or superior to, operating loss and or net income (loss) or any other performance
measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities or any other measures of our
cash flows or liquidity.
We use Contribution Margin (Loss) and Adjusted
EBITDA to evaluate the performance of our operating segments. We believe that information about these non-GAAP financial measures assists
investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of our business separate from non-operational factors that affect
operating income (loss) and net income (loss), thus providing insights into both operations and the other factors that affect reported
results. Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP. A limitation of the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a performance
measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain amortizing assets used in generating revenue in our business. Accordingly,
Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss), and other
measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, this measure may vary among other companies; thus, Adjusted
EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Contribution Margin (Loss) is defined as Revenue less Cost of Sales before (a) Cost of Sales share-based compensation expense, (b) depreciation,
and (c) amortization of developed technology. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, other (income) expense, income tax
expense, depreciation and amortization and before (a) non-cash GAAP purchase accounting adjustments for certain deferred revenue and costs,
(b) legal, accounting and other professional fees directly attributable to acquisition activity, (c) employee severance payments and third
party professional fees directly attributable to acquisition or corporate realignment activities, (d) certain non-recurring expenses associated
with legal settlements or reserves for legal settlements in the period that pertain to historical matters that existed at acquired companies
prior to their purchase date and a one-time minimum guarantee to effectively terminate a live events distribution agreement post COVID-19,
and (e) certain stock-based compensation expense. Management does not consider these costs to be indicative of our core operating results.
With respect to projected quarter and full
Fiscal 2027 Adjusted EBITDA, a quantitative reconciliation is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability,
complexity and low visibility with respect to purchase accounting adjustments, acquisition-related charges and legal settlement reserves
excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. We expect that the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant,
impact on our future GAAP financial results.
For more information on these non-GAAP financial
measures, please see the tables entitled “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure to GAAP Measure” included at the end of this release.
