Th e forward - looking statements made in this communication are made only as of the date hereof or as of the dates indicated in the forward - looking statements, even if they a re subsequently made available by Shift on its website or otherwise. Non - GAAP Financial Matters This presentation includes certain non - GAAP financial measures, including “GPU, ” “Adjusted GPU, ” “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA ”. These financial measures are not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and may be different from non - GAAP finan cial measures used by other companies. These non - GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends. These non - GAAP measures with comparable names should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with G AAP . This presentation contains forecasted financial measures including Adjusted GPU and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non - GAAP financial measures. The Company did not reconcile these forecasted financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure because certain information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis was unavailable or d epe ndent on the timing of future events outside of the Company's control. For example, the GAAP numbers would require forecasting the impact of warrant impact adjust men ts and change in fair value of financial instruments, both of which could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results. Therefore, the Company was una ble to reconcile, without unreasonable efforts, the forecasted financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measure.

 

 

5 5 Disclaimer (cont’d) Adjusted Gross Profit Management evaluates our business based on an adjusted gross profit calculation that removes the financial impact associated wit h milestones achieved under our Lithia warrant arrangement, which resulted in reductions in gross profit in our consolidated financial statements as applicable to the perio ds presented. This is a non - cash adjustment, and we do not expect any material future non - cash gross profit adjustments related to the Lithia warrant agreement. We examine adjusted gr oss profit in aggregate as well as for each of our revenue streams: ecommerce, other, and wholesale. Adjusted Gross Profit per Unit We define adjusted gross profit per unit (“Adjusted GPU”) as the adjusted gross profit for ecommerce, other and wholesale, ea ch of which divided by the total number of ecommerce units sold in the period. Adjusted GPU is driven by ecommerce vehicle revenue, which generates additional revenue t hro ugh attachment of our financing and protection products, and gross profit generated from wholesale vehicle sales. We present Adjusted GPU from our three revenues st reams, as ecommerce Adjusted GPU, Wholesale Adjusted GPU and Other Adjusted GPU. We believe Adjusted GPU is a key measure of our growth and long - term profitability. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin: We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude stock - based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, net i nterest income or expense, impact of warrant remeasurement, warrant milestone impact, and other cash and non - cash based income or expenses that we do not consider indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in ev aluating our performance for the following reasons: • Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s performance without regard to item s s uch as those we exclude in calculating this measure, which can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the met hod by which assets were acquired. • Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with GAAP financial measures for planning purposes, including the preparat ion of our annual operating budget, as a measure of performance and the effectiveness of our business strategies, and in communications with our board of directors co nce rning our performance. • Adjusted EBITDA provides a measure of consistency and comparability with our past performance that many investors find useful , f acilitates period - to - period comparisons of operations, and also facilitates comparisons with other peer companies, many of which use similar non - GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. Although Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, Adjusted EBI TDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations as reported under GAAP. These lim ita tions include: • Stock - based compensation is a non - cash charge and will remain an element of our long - term incentive compensation package, althou gh we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing operating performance for a particular period. • Depreciation and amortization are non - cash charges, and the assets being depreciated or amortized will • often have to be replaced in the future, but Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for • these replacements. • Change in fair value of financial instruments is a non - cash gain or loss. Liability - classified financial instruments represent p otential future obligations to settle liabilities by issuing the Company’s common stock. Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in the fair value of these obligations. • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in our working capital needs, capital expenditures, or contractual commitments. • Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for income taxes and the cash impact of other income • or expense. • Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. Our Adjusted EBITDA is influenced by fluctuations in our revenue and the timing and amounts of our investments in our operati ons . Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), income (loss) from operations, or any other measure of financial performance calculated and pr esented in accordance with GAAP.
