Investor Presentation September 2023
Disclaimer IMPORTANT: You must read the following information before continuing to the rest of the presentation, which is being provided to you for informational purposes only. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include projections, estimates and assumptions about various matters such as our future operational performance, including the updated third quarter information presented on slide 12. In addition, words such as “estimate,” “believe,” “forecast,” “predict,” “project,” “intend,” “should” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Our ability to achieve these forward-looking statements is based on certain assumptions, judgments and other factors, both within and outside of our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, risks relating to the uncertainty of projected financial information and forecasts, our level of indebtedness; our dependence on third-party lenders to provide the cash we need to fund our indebtedness and our ability to affordably access third-party financing; the impact of regulations on our business; the effects of competition on our business; our ability to attract and retain customers; global economic, market, financial, political or public health conditions or events; our ability to integrate acquired businesses; our ability to protect our proprietary technology and analytics; disruption of our information technology systems; improper disclosure of customer personal data, as well as other factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The foregoing factors, as well as other existing risk factors and new risk factors that emerge from time to time, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual future results. Furthermore, the Company undertakes no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, we provide certain “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, such measures provide useful information for comparing our performance over various reporting periods as they remove from our operating results the impact of items that we believe do not reflect our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not substitutes for any GAAP financial measure and there are limitations to using them. Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures can make an evaluation of our operating performance more consistent because they remove items that do not reflect our core operations, other companies in our industry may define their own non-GAAP financial measures differently or use different measures. As a result, it may be difficult to use any non-GAAP financial measure to compare the performance of other companies to our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in these slides should not be considered as measures of the income generated by our business or discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Our management compensates for these limitations by reference to GAAP results and using these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures. 2
