Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

References in this document to the “Registrant,” “DMS Inc.,” “DMS,” the “Company,” “we,” “management,” “us” or “our” refers to Digital Media Solutions, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires or indicates.

This Quarterly Report, particularly Part I. Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) and Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors, and the documents we incorporate into this Quarterly Reprt contain certain statements that are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements within the meaning of that term in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are made in reliance upon the protections provided by such acts for forward-looking statements. These forward looking statements are often identified by words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, DMS’s expectations with respect to its future performance and its ability to implement its strategy, and are based on the beliefs and expectations of our management team from the information available at the time such statements are made. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside DMS’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: (1) the COVID-19 pandemic or other public health crises; (2) changes in client demand for our services and our ability to adapt to such changes; (3) the entry of new competitors in the market; (4) the ability to maintain and attract consumers and advertisers in the face of changing economic or competitive conditions; (5) the ability to maintain, grow and protect the data DMS obtains from consumers and advertisers; (6) the performance of DMS’s technology infrastructure; (7) the ability to protect DMS’s intellectual property rights; (8) the ability to successfully source and complete acquisitions and to integrate the operations of companies DMS acquires, including the Crisp Results assets and Aimtell, PushPros and Aramis Interactive; (9) the ability to improve and maintain adequate internal controls over financial and management systems, and remediate the identified material weakness; (10) changes in applicable laws or regulations and the ability to maintain compliance; (11) our substantial levels of indebtedness; (12) volatility in the trading price on the NYSE of our common stock and warrants; (13) fluctuations in value of

our private placement warrants; and (14) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in DMS’s filings with the SEC, including those under “Risk Factors” in DMS’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A and its subsequent filings with the SEC.

There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or which are unknown, and it is not possible to predict or identify all such risks.

DMS cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. DMS cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. DMS does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

DIGITAL MEDIA SOLUTIONS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business

Digital Media Solutions, Inc. (“DMS Inc.”) is a digital performance marketing company offering a diversified lead and software delivery platform that drives high value and high intent leads to its customers. As used in this Quarterly Report, the “Company” refers to DMS Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, (including its wholly-owned subsidiary, CEP V DMS US Blocker Company, a Delaware corporation (“Blocker”)). The Company is headquartered in Clearwater, Florida. The Company primarily operates and derives most of its revenues in the United States.

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

The notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s restated audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 18, 2021 (the “2020 Form 10-K/A”).

As previously disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K/A, we restated the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, as well as each of the impacted quarters within 2020 to make the necessary accounting corrections related to our warrant accounting for the Private Placement warrants. There was no impact to the quarter ended June 30, 2020 as the Private Placement warrants were not issued.

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal and recurring entries considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

Business Combination

As discussed in more detail in our 2020 Form 10-K/A on July 15, 2020, DMSH consummated the Business Combination with Leo pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (“Business Combination”). Pursuant to the Business Combination, DMS Inc. acquired, directly and through its acquisition of the equity of Blocker, approximately 55.5% of the membership interest in DMSH, while Prism Data, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Prism”), CEP V-A DMS AIV Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (“Clairvest Direct Seller”) and related entities (the “Sellers”) retained approximately 44.5% of the membership interest in DMSH (“non-controlling interests”).

For additional information, see Note 2: “Business Combination” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K/A.

Non-controlling Interest

The non-controlling interest represents the membership interest in Digital Media Solutions Holding (“DMSH”) held by holders other than the Company. As of June 30, 2021, the Prism, Clairvest Direct Sellers and SmarterChaos combined ownership percentage in DMSH was 41.9% and as of December 31, 2020 it was 44.8%. The Company has consolidated the financial position and results of operations of DMSH and reflected the proportionate interest held by Prism, Clairvest Direct Seller and the SmarterChaos sellers as a non-controlling interest.

Changes in Accounting Standards and Policies

There have been no changes in the significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in our 2020 Form 10-K/A.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” and thus has elected to adhere to the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. This election allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies.

6

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance ASC 842, Lease Accounting, regarding the accounting for leases, and has since issued subsequent updates to the initial guidance. The amended guidance requires the recognition of assets and liabilities for operating leases. The standard was initially effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. However, in November 2019, the FASB issued amended guidance, which defers for Emerging Growth Companies (“EGC”) the effective date to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition. We plan to adopt the standard using the optional transition method whereby we would apply the new lease requirements through a cumulative-effect adjustment on the effective date of adoption. We plan to elect the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance of the new standards, which allows us to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, allows us to carry forward the historical lease classification and permits us to exclude from our assessment initial direct costs for any existing leases. We will also make an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of twelve months or less from our transition adjustment. We are currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated balance sheets, recognizing assets and related lease liabilities, which may or may not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on accounting for credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables, and has since issued subsequent updates to the initial guidance. The amended guidance requires the application of a current expected credit loss model, which measures credit losses based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance requires adoption using a modified retrospective approach and is effective for EGC fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

The Company’s operating segments are determined based on the financial information reviewed by its chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), and the basis upon which management makes resource allocation decisions and assesses the performance of the Company’s segments. The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based on financial measures such as net revenue, cost of revenue, and gross profit. Given the nature of the digital marketing solutions business, the amount of assets does not provide meaningful insight into the operating performance of the Company. As a result, the amount of the Company’s assets is not subject to segment allocation and total assets is not included within the disclosure of the Company’s segment financial information.

NOTE 6. ACQUISITIONS

Crisp Results

On April 1, 2021, the Company completed a transaction to purchase the assets of Crisp Marketing, LLC (“Crisp Results”). Crisp Results is a digital performance advertising company that connects consumers with brands within the insurance sector, with primary focus on the Medicare insurance industry. Crisp Results is known for providing predictable, reliable, flexible and scalable customer acquisition solutions, supporting large brands with a process that combines data, design, technology and innovation.

The Company paid consideration of $40.0 million upon closing of the transaction, consisting of $20.0 million cash and Class A Common Stock valued at $20.0 million. The transaction also includes up to $10.0 million in contingent consideration to be

11

earned over the 12 months following the acquisition, subject to the achievements of certain milestones, and $5.0 million of deferred payment, to be paid 18-months after the acquisition date.

As of April 1, 2021, the acquisition date, the present value of the contingent consideration earnout was recorded at $4.8 million, and the deferred consideration was $4.6 million. As of June 30, 2021, the contingent consideration earnout increased

$0.6 million during the current quarter to a total of $5.4 million, and the deferred consideration did not materially change. The contingent consideration and deferred payment can be paid in cash or DMS Class A Common Stock at the election of the Company.

In conjunction with this acquisition, we incurred approximately $0.7 million of legal and other acquisition-related expenses, which were recorded as Acquisition costs in the unaudited condensed consolidated operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Additionally, we incurred $0.2 million of equity issuance costs, offsetting the 1.6 million share issuance in the equity for Crisp Results.

The Company primarily used an Income Approach, specifically a Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) analysis, which represents Level 3 fair value measurements, to assess the components of its purchase price allocation. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, whereby the excess of the fair value of the business over the fair value of identifiable net assets was allocated to goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the Company’s results of operations since the acquisition date of April 1, 2021. Under Accounting Standards Codification 805 (“ASC 805”), an acquirer must recognize any assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, measured at fair value as of that date. Assets meeting the identification criteria included tangible assets, such as real and personal property, and intangible assets. Identified intangible assets included the brand and customer relationships of the acquired business. The fair value of the brand was determined by applying an Income Approach, specifically the Relief from Royalty Method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was determined by applying an Income Approach, specifically the Multi Period Excess Earnings Method.

The goodwill related to this transaction reflects the workforce and synergies expected from combining the operations of Crisp Results and is included in the Marketplace reportable segment. Intangible assets primarily consist of brand and customer relationships with an estimated useful life of, one to seven years for brand and five to six years for customer relationships. Accounting remains open for working capital adjustments and final fair value calculations due to the timing and complexity of the acquisition transaction.

Aimtell, PushPros and Aramis

The Company acquired on February 1, 2021, Aimtell, Inc. (“Aimtell”), PushPros, Inc. (“PushPros”) and Aramis Interactive (“Aramis”). Aimtell and PushPros are leading providers of technology-enabled digital performance advertising solutions connecting consumers and advertisers within the home, auto, health and life insurance verticals. Aramis is a network of owned-and-operated websites that leverages the Aimtell and PushPros technologies and relationships.

The Company paid consideration of $20.0 million at the closing transaction, consisting of $5.0 million in cash and approximately 1.29 million shares of Class A Common Stock valued at $15.0 million, subject to a lock-up agreement, contingent consideration with a fair value of $4.9 million and working capital of $0.3 million. Total payouts for contingent consideration over the three years following the closing of the transaction is $15.0 million, subject to the acquired companies reaching certain milestones. The contingent consideration can be paid in cash or DMS Class A Common Stock at the election of the Company.

As of February 1, 2021, the acquisition date, the present value of the contingent consideration earnout was recorded at $4.9 million. The contingent consideration did not materially change during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The contingent consideration can be paid in cash or DMS Class A Common Stock at the election of the Company.

In conjunction with this acquisition, we incurred approximately $0.5 million of legal and other acquisition-related expenses, which were recorded as Acquisition costs in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Company primarily used an Income Approach, specifically a Discounted Cash Flow (“DCF”) analysis, which represents Level 3 fair value measurements, to assess the components of its purchase price allocation. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, whereby the excess of the fair value of the business over the fair value of identifiable net assets was allocated to goodwill. The results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the Company’s results of operations since the acquisition date of February 1, 2021. Under Accounting Standards Codification 805 (ASC 805), an acquirer must recognize any assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, measured at fair value as of that date. Assets meeting the identification criteria included tangible assets, such as real and personal property, and intangible assets.

12

of the brand and technology was determined by applying an Income Approach, specifically the Relief from Royalty Method. The fair value of the acquired customer relationships was determined by applying an Income Approach, specifically the Multi Period Excess Earnings Method.

The goodwill related to this transaction reflects the workforce and synergies expected from combining the operations of Aimtell/Aramis/PushPros and is included in the Brand Direct reportable segment. Intangible assets primarily consist of technology, brand and customer relationships with an estimated useful life of seven years for technology, one to seven years for brand, and five to six years for customer relationships. Accounting remains open for working capital adjustments and final fair value calculations due to the timing and complexity of the acquisition transaction.

SmarterChaos and She is Media

Pro Forma Information

The following unaudited pro forma financial information represents the consolidated financial information as if the acquisitions had been included in our consolidated results beginning on the first day of the fiscal year prior to their respective acquisition dates. The pro forma results do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisitions; the costs to combine the companies’ operations; or the costs necessary to achieve these costs savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements. The pro forma results do not necessarily reflect the actual results of operations of the combined companies under our ownership and operation.

A proforma schedule for SmarterChaos is not included below because the Company was acquired on July 16, 2020 and net revenue and net income from operations related to this acquisition prior to July 16, 2020 was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. Net revenue and net income from operations are presented in the above table subsequent to the acquisition date.

NOTE 7. RESTRUCTURING COSTS

Restructuring costs include expenses associated with the Company’s effort to continually improve operational efficiency and reposition its assets to remain competitive on a national basis. Termination of office lease and other related costs include lease and termination of fixed assets, employee training, relocation and facility costs. These costs are recorded in General and administrative expenses, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into negotiations with landlords to terminate lease agreements, for twelve different properties for approximately 62,113 square feet of office space located in Canada and the United States. As of June 30, 2021, a reserve of approximately $3.0 million was recorded; and $1.2 million is accrued for within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $1.8 million is accrued for within Other non-current liabilities, on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a valuation cost reduction to the restructuring lease liability of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, which primarily consisted of two additional locations added to the reserve representing 7,975 sq. feet.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures.

Private Placement Warrants

As disclosed in the 2020 Form 10-K/A, during the first quarter of 2021, we reevaluated the accounting treatment of the Company’s Warrants issued in connection with the Business Combination. As a result of our reevaluation, we restated the Private Placement Warrants and recorded these warrants at fair value as a liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2020. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is considered a Level 3 valuation and is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. Changes in fair value of the Private Placement Warrants are presented under Change in the fair value of warrant liabilities on the Income Statement.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has approximately 4.0 million Private Placement Warrants outstanding. The significant assumptions were as follows:

	June 30, 2021
Private Placement Warrants Fair Value Per Share	$	3.66
Private Placement Warrant valuation inputs:
Stock price	$	9.68
Strike price	$	11.50
Remaining contractual term in years	4.04
Estimated volatility of Class A Common Stock	55.0		%
Dividend yield	0.0		%
Risk free interest rate	0.67		%

Contingent consideration payable related to acquisitions

17

The fair value of the contingent consideration payable for the Aimtell/PushPros/Aramis and Crisp Results acquisitions (described in Note 6 Acquisitions) were determined using a Monte Carlo fair value analysis based on estimated performance and the probability of achieving certain targets. As certain inputs are not observable in the market, the contingent consideration is classified as a Level 3 instrument. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration are presented under Acquisition costs on the unaudited condensed statement of operations. The range of outcomes for the fair value of the contingent consideration did not materially change for Aimtell/PushPros/Aramis from prior period.

NOTE 9. EMPLOYEE AND DIRECTOR INCENTIVE PLANS

2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan

On July 15, 2020, Leo’s shareholders approved the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan allows for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards (including restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and other stock-based awards. Directors, officers and employees, as well as others performing independent consulting or advisory services for the Company or its affiliates, will be eligible for grants under the 2020 Plan. The aggregate number of shares reserved under the 2020 Plan is approximately 11.6 million. The 2020 Plan terminates on June 24, 2030. For additional information see Note 12 “Employee and Director Incentive Plans” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2020 Form 10-K/A.

The fair value of non-vested shares is determined based on the closing trading price of the Company’s shares on the grant date and are amortized over the award’s service period. At June 30, 2021, total non-vested stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock was $7.0 million, which will be recognized over a weighted-average remaining period of 2.04 years. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of shares granted during the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, was $7.14 per share.

Restricted Shares

The following table presents the restricted share activity for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands, except price per share):

Restricted Stock Units	Number of Restricted Stock	Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2021	1,197	$	7.31

Exercised	(83)	$	7.31
Forfeited/Canceled	(101)	$	11.73
Outstanding at June 30, 2021	1,069	$	7.14

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has one shared-based compensation plan that allows for granting of restricted share units and stock options. The compensation cost that has been recorded against Consolidated Statement of Operations, “Salaries and related costs” was approximately $1.4 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The total intrinsic value of units exercised during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, was $0.6 million.

The following table presents the stock option activity for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands, except price per share):

NOTE 10. INCOME TAXES

As a result of the Business Combination, the Company consists of DMS Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Blocker, which owns 58.1% of equity interests in DMSH. DMSH is treated as a partnership for purposes of U.S. federal and certain state and local income tax. As a U.S. partnership, generally DMSH will not be subject to corporate income taxes (except with respect to UE, as described below). Instead, each of the ultimate partners (including DMS Inc.) are taxed on their proportionate share of DMSH taxable income.

While the Company consolidates DMSH for financial reporting purposes, the Company will only be taxed on its allocable share of future earnings (i.e. those earnings not attributed to the non-controlling interests, which continue to be taxed on their own allocable share of future earnings of DMSH). The Company’s income tax expense is attributable to the allocable share of earnings from DMSH, a portion of activities of DMSH that are subject to Canadian income tax, and the activities of UE, a wholly-owned U.S. corporate subsidiary of DMSH, which is subject to U.S. federal and state and local income taxes. The income tax burden on the earnings allocated to the non-controlling interests is not reported by the Company in its condensed consolidated financial statements under GAAP. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rate is expected to differ materially from the statutory rate.

The Company’s tax provision or benefit from income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and makes a year-to-date adjustment to the provision. The Company recorded income tax expense of $1.0 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The blended effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were 17.27% and 19.53%, which varies from our statutory U.S. tax rate due to taxable income or loss that is allocated to the non-controlling interest. The Company recorded $0.2 million and $0.3 million income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

Tax Receivable Agreement

In conjunction with the Business Combination, DMS Inc. and Blocker also entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement with the Sellers. Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, DMS Inc. is required to pay the Sellers (i) 85% of the amount of savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that DMS Inc. and Blocker actually realize as a result of (A) certain existing tax attributes of Blocker acquired in the Business Combination, and (B) increases in Blocker’s allocable share of the tax basis of the assets of DMS and certain other tax benefits related to the payment of the cash consideration pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and any redemptions or exchanges of DMS Units for cash or Class A Common Stock after the Business Combination and (ii) 100% of certain refunds of pre-Closing taxes of DMSH and Blocker received during a taxable year beginning within two (2) years after the Closing. All such payments to the Sellers are the obligation of DMS Inc., and not that of DMSH. As a result of this agreement, the Company recorded as of December 31, 2020, a deferred tax asset and income tax receivable of $20.1 million and $199 thousand, respectively, with the offset as a long-term Tax Receivable Agreement liability of $16.2 million and Additional Paid-in Capital of $4.0 million in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2021, the total amount of payments under the TRA was $17.4 million, of which $1.2 million was current and included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

ASU 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes" ("ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This new guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021, and did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 11. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to DMS Inc. by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to DMS Inc., after adjusting net income for the change in fair value of warrant liability multiplied by the percentage of parent’s ownership share and the denominator is adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements.

Prior to the Business Combination, the membership structure of DMSH included units which had profit interests. The Company analyzed the calculation of earnings per unit for periods prior to the Business Combination and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, earnings per share information has not been presented for periods prior to the Business Combination on July 15, 2020. The basic and diluted earnings per share represent only the shares earned during the period of January 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021.

The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2021

Net income per common share:

Diluted	$	0.07	$	(0.06)

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company excluded 14.0 million warrants, 87,000 employee equity awards and 25.9 million DMSH Units convertible into Class A Common Stock, as the effect was anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company excluded 10.0 million warrants, 25.9 million DMSH Units convertible into Class A Common Stock and 1,632,000 employee equity awards as the effect was anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company excluded contingent consideration issued in connection with Aramis, Aimtell and PushPros and Crisp Results acquisitions, which is payable in DMS common stock at the Company’s option, as the necessary conditions to pay such consideration had not been satisfied by the end of the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company excluded deferred consideration issued in connection with Crisp Results acquisition, which is payable in DMS common stock at the Company’s option, as the effect was anti-dilutive.

Recent Business Acquisitions

Crisp Results

On April 1, 2021, the Company completed a transaction to purchase the assets of Crisp Results. Crisp Results is a digital performance advertising company that connects consumers with brands within the insurance sector, with primary focus on the Medicare insurance industry. Crisp Results is known for providing predictable, reliable, flexible and scalable customer acquisition solutions, supporting large brands with a process that combines data, design, technology and innovation.

The transaction also includes up to $10.0 million in contingent consideration to be earned over the 12 months following the closing of the acquisition, subject to the achievement of certain milestones, and a $5.0 million deferred payment. The contingent consideration and deferred payment can be paid in cash or stock at the election of the Company.

In conjunction with this acquisition, we incurred approximately $0.7 million of legal and other acquisition-related expenses, which were recorded as Acquisition Costs in the condensed consolidated operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Additionally, we incurred $0.2 million of equity issuance costs, offsetting the 1.6 million share issuance in the equity for Crisp Results.

Aimtell, PushPros and Aramis

On February 1, 2021, the Company acquired Aimtell, Inc. (“Aimtell”), PushPros, Inc. (“PushPros”) and Aramis Interactive (“Aramis”).

Table of Contents

Our Brand Direct segment experienced an increase in Customer acquisition revenue of $17.8 million or 44%, and $32.4 million or 41% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These increases are due to growth in our affiliate and performance businesses due to further penetration of existing customers and expansion in the markets, offset by lack of sales from our messaging services due to a strategic shift away from this industry.

Customer acquisition revenue for Marketplace increased by $22.5 million or 64%, and $37.6 million or 54% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These increases are primarily due to our penetration of the auto and health insurance verticals.

Managed Services Revenue. Managed services contracts provide continuous service of managing the customer’s media spend for the purpose of generating leads through a third-party supplier of leads, as requested by our customer.

Managed services revenue experienced a decrease of $(2.6) million or (46)%, and $(1.2) million or (14)% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These decreases are primarily driven by lower third-party supplier leads.

Software Services Revenue. Software services contracts provide the customer with continuous, daily access to the Company’s proprietary software. Software services revenue is considered insignificant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 to our total Net revenue as a whole.

Cost of revenue and gross profit. Cost of revenue primarily includes media and other related costs, such as the cost to acquire user traffic through the purchase of impressions, clicks or actions from publishers or third-party intermediaries, including advertising exchanges, and technology costs that enable media acquisition. These media costs are used primarily to drive user traffic to the Company’s and our customers’ media properties. Cost of revenue also includes indirect costs such as data verification, hosting and fulfillment costs.

The following table presents the gross profit percentage (gross profit as a percentage of total revenue) by segment and the changes from prior period:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		% Change		2021		2020		% Change
Brand Direct	26.0	%	24.2	%	7.4	%	24.9	%	24.3	%	2.5	%
Marketplace	28.9	%	30.3	%	(4.6)	%	27.4	%	31.6	%	(13.3)	%
Other	76.1	%	96.9	%	(21.5)	%	77.8	%	97.2	%	(20.0)	%
Total gross profit percentage	32.1	%	30.3	%	5.9	%	30.4	%	30.7	%	(1.0)	%

Gross profit for Brand Direct increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by substantial diversification in our distribution channels as we continue to scale growth.

Gross profit for Marketplace decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the expansion in the auto and health insurance business at compressed margins.

Gross profit for Other decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the new revenue mix, which has compressed lower profit margins.

Total gross profit increased for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to expansion in the health insurance vertical at higher margins. Total gross profit decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2021, due to the first and second quarter expansion of performance ad network for our affiliate and auto insurance business at compressed margins, partially offset by expansion of health insurance vertical at higher margins.

Salaries and related costs. Total compensation includes salaries, commissions, bonuses, payroll taxes and retirement benefits.

Salaries and related costs increased by $3.8 million or 48% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and increased $5.7 million or 35% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. These increases are primarily driven by stock-based compensation and headcount as a result of an expansion of our workforce in the insurance and health business, as well as an increase in commissions due to the increase in revenue.

General and administrative. General and administrative consist of expenses incurred in our normal course of business relating to office supplies, computer and technology, rent and utilities, insurance, legal and professional fees, state and local taxes and licenses, penalties and settlements and bad debt expense, as well as sales and marketing expenses relating to advertising and promotion. We also include other expenses such as investment banking expenses, fundraising costs and costs related to the advancement of our corporate social responsibility program.

General and administrative expenses increased $5.9 million or 127% for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 expenses increased $7.6 million or 76%. These increases are primarily driven by higher software and computer expenses as well as an overall increase in insurance, legal and professional fees related to compliance, partially offset by a decline in rental expense due to office closures.

Acquisition costs. Acquisition related costs are not considered part of the consideration for acquisitions and are expensed as incurred. This includes accretion of contingent consideration, acquisition incentive compensation and other transaction related costs.

Acquisition costs increased by $0.4 million or greater than 100%, and increased $1.9 million or greater than 100% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These increases are primarily due to the acquisition costs related to contingent consideration based on re-measurement of milestone payments.

Depreciation and amortization. Property, plant and equipment consists of computers and office equipment, furniture and fixtures, leasehold improvements and internally developed software costs. Intangible assets subject to amortization include technology, customer relationships, brand, and non-competition agreements.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.7 million or 62%, and $3.8 million or 44% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These increase are primarily driven by the fixed assets acquired with Crisp Results and Aimtel/Aramis/PushPros (“AAP”) as well as continued investments in internally developed software, which were placed in service.

Interest expense. Interest expense for three and six months ended June 30, 2021 is related primarily to our debt, which carries a variable interest rate based on multiple options at either LIBOR plus 4.25%, or an alternate base rate, plus an agreed upon margin with Truist Bank, the Company’s financial institution since May 25, 2021 (see Note 5 Debt).

Interest expense increased by $0.1 million or 4%, and decreased by $(0.4) million or (6%) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to outstanding debt balance. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was due to a partial decline in interest rates compared to the same period in the prior year.

Income tax expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 the Company’s effective income tax rate was 17.27%. The blended effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 19.53%. These rates vary from our statutory U.S. tax rate due to the tax impact of the taxable income or loss that is allocated to the non-controlling interest.

Non-controlling interest. As a result of the Aimtell/PushPros/Aramis and Crisp Results acquisitions, our non-controlling interest owns approximately 41.9% of the ownership interest of DMSH and we allocate the respective portion of net income or loss to the DMSH Units held by the non-controlling interest.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to providing financial measurements based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this Quarterly Report includes additional financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”), including adjusted revenue, adjusted EBITDA, unlevered free cash flow, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures can be found below. As explained further below, we use these financial measures internally to review the performance of our business units without regard to certain accounting treatments and non-recurring items. We believe that presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations. Because of these limitations, management relies primarily on its GAAP results and uses non-GAAP measures only as a supplement.

Adjusted Revenue

Adjusted revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure presented as an alternative method for assessing the Company’s operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of our underlying operations. Management believes this measure provides useful information because, while the majority of our business consists of lead generation contracts which are accounted for on a gross basis, a portion of our agency managed services contracts are accounted for on a net basis. In light of these considerations, management believes that adjusted revenue provides useful information regarding operating performance across our business, without regard to the accounting treatment of individual contracts, and allows management to build forecasts on a consistent basis across the business. Management further uses adjusted revenue to compare the performance of divisions within the Company against each other and to isolate our core operating performance. Moreover, management expects that over time we will transition all of our services to a principal relationship and as our contracts are either amended or new agreements are executed, this measure will help provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between different periods over time as we transition these services and related accounting for these contracts.

Adjusted revenue is defined as revenue as reported under GAAP, without regard to netting of costs applicable to revenues earned under contracts that are deemed to be entered into on an agency basis.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Adjusted Revenue to revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2021									Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
	Reported (GAAP)			Adjustments (1)			Adjusted (Non-GAAP)			Reported (GAAP)			Adjustments (1)			Adjusted (Non-GAAP)
Net revenue	$	105,079		$	4,176		$	109,255		$	201,882		$	6,911		$	208,793

(1) Includes the gross up for certain Managed services contracts that are presented net of costs under GAAP for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA, Unlevered Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Free Cash Flow Conversion

We use the non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and unlevered free cash flow to assess operating performance. Management believes that these measures provide useful information to investors regarding DMS’s operating performance and its capacity to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. DMS believes that these measures are used by many investors, analysts and rating agencies as a measure of performance. By reporting these measures, DMS provides a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that DMS does not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Financial measures that are non-GAAP should not be considered as alternatives to operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance, or cash flows as measures of liquidity. These measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, DMS relies primarily on its GAAP results and uses adjusted EBITDA and unlevered free cash flow only as a supplement.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (1) interest expense, (2) income tax expense, (3) depreciation and amortization, (4) change in fair value of warrant liabilities (5) debt extinguishment (6) stock-based compensation (7) restructuring (8) acquisition costs, (9) other expenses, (10) cost savings expected as a result of a company reorganization, (11) cost synergies expected as a result of full integration of our acquisitions,

28

Table of Contents

and (12) pre-acquisition cost savings resulting from current years’ acquisition and comparable to same period last year.

In addition, we adjust to take into account estimated cost synergies related to our acquisitions. These adjustments are estimated based on cost-savings that are expected to be realized within our acquisitions over time as these acquisitions are fully integrated into DMS. These cost-savings result from the removal of cost and or service redundancies that already exist within DMS, technology synergies as systems are consolidated and centralized, headcount reductions based on redundancies, right-sized cost structure of media and service costs utilizing the most beneficial contracts within DMS and the acquired companies with external media and service providers. We believe that these non-synergized costs tend to overstate our expenses during the periods in which such synergies are still being realized.

Furthermore, in order to review the performance of the combined business over periods that extend prior to our ownership of the acquired businesses, we include the pre-acquisition performance of the businesses acquired. Management believes that doing so helps to understand the combined operating performance and potential of the business as a whole and makes it easier to compare performance of the combined business over different periods.

Unlevered free cash flow is defined as adjusted EBITDA, less capital expenditures, and unlevered free cash flow conversion is defined as unlevered free cash flow divided by adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS:

We use the non-GAAP measures adjusted net income and adjusted EPS to assess operating performance. Management believes that these measures provide investors with useful information on period-to-period performance as evaluated by management and comparison with our past financial and operating performance. Management also believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary from company to company for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. We define adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) attributable to Digital Media Solutions, Inc. adjusted for (x) costs associated with the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, debt extinguishment, Business Combinations and acquisition-related costs, equity based compensation and lease restructuring charges and (y) the reallocation of net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests from the assumed acquisition by Digital Media Solutions, Inc. of all units of Digital Media Solutions Holdings, LLC ("DMSH LLC") (other than units held by subsidiaries of Digital Media Solutions, Inc.) for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock of Digital Media Solutions, Inc. on a one-to-one basis. We define adjusted pro forma net income (loss) per share as adjusted pro forma net income (loss) divided by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming the acquisition by Digital Media Solutions, Inc. of all outstanding DMSH LLC units (other than units held by subsidiaries of Digital Media Solutions, Inc.) for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock on a one-to-one-basis.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following table summarizes certain key measures of our liquidity and capital resources (in thousands):

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020		$ Change		% Change
Cash	$	18,829	$	31,397	$	(12,568)	(40)	%
Availability under revolving credit facility	$	50,000	$	15,000	$	35,000	233	%
Total Debt	225,000		203,851		$	21,149	10	%

Our capital sources are focused on investments in our technology solutions, corporate infrastructure and strategic acquisitions to further expand into new business sectors and/or expand sales in existing sectors. We generate sufficient cash flows for working capital and expect to do so for the foreseeable future.

Our principal sources of liquidity on a short-term basis are cash and cash equivalents, and cash flows provided by operations. Our primary use of cash is compensation to our employees and payments for general operating expenses and interest expense.

On May 25, 2021, Digital Media Solutions, LLC (“DMS LLC”), as borrower, and DMSH, each of which is a subsidiary of DMS, entered into a new five-year $275 million senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with a syndicate of lenders (“Lenders”), arranged by Truist Bank and Fifth Third Bank, as joint lead arrangers, and Truist Bank, as administrative agent. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by, and secured by substantially all of the assets of, DMS LLC, DMSH LLC and their material subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, the Lenders provided DMS LLC with senior secured term loans consisting of a senior secured term loan with an aggregate principal amount of $225 million (the “Term Loan”) and a $50 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”). The Company deferred approximately $3.5 million of issuance costs primarily associated with brokerage, legal, arrangement and consulting fees. The premium and the deferred financing costs will be amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the note.

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the six months ended June 30, 2020, our Unlevered Free Cash Flow conversion rate was 87% and 84%, respectively. This increase was due to stock-based compensation, acquisition synergies and debt extinguishment related to management proforma adjustments.

Cash flows from operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $3.7 million provided by in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in comparable cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to continued growth of the business and payments of accrued expenses offset by stock-based compensation and the payout of the earnout compensation related to an acquisition of UE Authority, Co. during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $24.0 million, or 477% to $29.0 million from $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to the recent acquisition of Aimtell/Aramis/PushPros and Crisp Results as well as continued investments in internally developed software.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $12.9 million, reflecting an increase of $6.7 million, or 106%, as compared to $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was mainly due to borrowings incurred in connection with the establishment of our Credit Facility.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency forward contracts. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts. In our ongoing business, we do not enter into transactions involving, or otherwise form relationships with, unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships that are established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

For our disclosures about market risk, please see Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on May 18, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that during the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on May 18, 2021. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our quarterly interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

With the oversight of senior management and our audit committee, we have been taking steps to improve and enhance our internal control over financial reporting, and more recently to remediate the material weaknesses described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on May 18, 2021. These steps include: (i) moving to a new accounting system for the period commencing on January 1, 2021 for more efficient and timely reporting; (ii) hiring additional personnel to oversee and effectively allow for formally documenting accounting policies and ensuring compliance with accounting requirements; (iii) continuing to improve and maintain policies, processes and documentation procedures to improve the overall efficiency and accuracy of our financial reporting; and (iv) establishing an ongoing program of education for our corporate finance and reporting employees, specifically including U.S. GAAP and the application of accounting pronouncements.

Except as disclosed above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
