Non-GAAP Financial Measures


We use certain non-GAAP financial measures as additional measures to enhance the understanding of our financial results. This presentation includes the following non-
GAAP financial measures: adjusted net revenues, adjusted variable expenses, adjusted fixed expenses, and adjusted income before income taxes. We believe that these non-
GAAP financial measures are important measures of our financial performance because they exclude certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results and
business outlook and may be useful to investors and analysts in evaluating the operating performance of the business and facilitating a meaningful comparison of our results in
the current period to those in prior and future periods. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most
comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP is included at the end of this presentation.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements


The following information contains certain forward-looking statements that reflect the Company’s current views with respect to certain current and future events and financial
performance. These forward-looking statements are and will be, as the case may be, subject to many risks, uncertainties and factors relating to the Company’s operations and
business environment which may cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from any future results, expressed or implied, in these forward-looking
statements. Any forward-looking statements are based upon information available to the Company on the date of this presentation. The Company does not undertake to
publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any statements expressed or implied therein will not be
realized. Additional information on risk factors that could potentially affect the Company’s financial results may be found in the Company’s filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
