This presentation by Webull Corporation (“ Webull ”) includes “forward - looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litig ation Reform Act of 1995. Among other things, statements other than statements of historical fact, including statements about Webull’s beliefs and expectations, Webull’s business strategy and operational plans, planned products and services, financial and market outlook, and projections, are forward - looking statements. These forward - looking statements can be identified by terminolo gy such as “may,” “could,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “aim,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “likely to,” “potential,” “confident,” “guidance,” and similar terminology, although not all forward - look ing statements contain such terminology. All forward - looking statements are based upon current estimates and forecasts and reflect the reasonable views, assumptions, expectations, and opinions of Webull and its management as of the date of this presentation, and are therefore subject to a number of factors, risks and uncertainties, some of which are not currently known to Webull and its management and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward - looking statements. Some of these factors include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties that are more fully described in filings made, or to be made, by Webull with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward - Looking Statements” in tho se filings. There may be additional risks that Webull and its management presently do not know or that Webull and its management currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ materially from those cont ai ned in the forward - looking statements. In light of these factors, risks and uncertainties, the forward - looking events and circumstances discussed in this presentation may not occur, and any esti mates, assumptions, expectations, forecasts, views or opinions set forth in this press release should be regarded as preliminary and for illustrative purposes only and accordingly, undue reliance should not be pl ace d upon the forward - looking statements. All information provided in this presentation is as of the date hereof, and Webull undertakes no obligation to update any forward - looking statement, except as required under applicable law. This presentation contains certain financial measures that are not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), including adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, and adjusted operating expenses. Adjusted operating profit represents income from continuing operations, before income taxes, exc lud ing share - based compensation expenses, one - time transactions, and other expense (income), net. Adjusted net income represents net income attributable to the Company, excluding share - based compensation expense s, foreign currency transaction gains and losses and one - time transactions. Adjusted operating expenses represent total operating expenses, excluding share - based compensation expenses. Webull believes that adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income, and adjusted operating expenses help identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain ex penses that we include in income from continuing operations, before income taxes, and total operating expenses. Such measures also provide useful information about Webull’s operating results, enhances the overall understanding of Webull’s past performance and future prospects and allows for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by Webull’s management in its financial and operational decision - making. The reconciliation of those measures to the most comparable GAAP m easures is presented in the Appendix at the end of this presentation. These non - GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and you should n ot consider them in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of Webull’s financial results under GAAP. Adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income and adjusted operating expenses presented here may not be com parable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Appendix

 

 

Appendix: Contra Revenue We offer marketing promotions to our platform users that are intended to increase the amount of platform users’ assets on our platform by incentivizing platform users to deposit more cash or transfer securities from other third - party brokerages into thei r Webull brokerage account in return for a promotional payment in cash or free shares. Most of our platform users are not considered customers under ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), an d promotional payments made to these platform users are accounted for as a marketing and branding expense. Conversely, for our platform users who have been determined to be customers under ASC 606, we account for these promotional payments as a reduction in revenue (i.e., “contra revenue”). The following presents how contra revenue impacted our trade related revenues . 13 webullcorp.com/investor - relations/ $ in millions Contra revenue impact on: 2024 Q2 2024 Q3 2024 Q4 2025 Q1 2025 Q2 Option handling fees (0.05)$ (0.03)$ (0.04)$ (0.10)$ (1.46)$ Platform and trading fees (0.68) (0.71) (1.03) (2.70) (3.22) Other revenue - - - - (0.43) Total contra revenue (0.73)$ (0.74)$ (1.07)$ (2.80)$ (5.11)$
