Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes Adjusted EBITDA (Loss), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense; income taxes; depreciation and amortization; gain or loss on extinguishment of debt; other expense (income), net; impairments of intangible assets and goodwill; impairments of property, equipment, and software; stock-based compensation expense; mark-to-market gains or losses recognized on changes in the value of contingent consideration arrangements, earnouts, warrants, and derivatives; restructuring costs; acquisition and other transaction costs; and non-cash bonus expense.

You should not consider the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release in isolation, as a substitute to or superior to financial performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release is that they exclude specified income and expenses, some of which may be significant or material, that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. We may also incur future income or expenses similar to those excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release, and the presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release reflect the exercise of management judgment about which income and expense are included or excluded in determining the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release.
