Announces First Quarter 2023 Financial Results
addition to the Company's results of operations determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
which are presented and discussed above, management also utilizes Adjusted EBITDA and Core Results, unaudited financial measures that
are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's financial results and performance and to plan and forecast
future periods. Adjusted EBITDA and Core Results are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures within the meaning of Regulation
G promulgated by the SEC. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of
the Company's operations that, when viewed with GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of the Company's results
of operations and the factors and trends affecting its business. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Core Results provide meaningful
supplemental information regarding the Company's performance because (i) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key
metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making; (ii) they exclude the impact of non-cash or, when specified,
non-recurring items that are not directly attributable to the Company's core operating performance and that may obscure trends
in the Company's core operating performance; and (iii) they are used by institutional investors and the analyst community to help
analyze the Company's results. However, Adjusted EBITDA, Core Results, and any other non-GAAP financial measures should be considered
as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Further,
non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company and the way they are calculated may differ from the non-GAAP financial measures or the
calculations of the same non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, including the Company's competitors.
Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding the effects of stock-based compensation and expenses, interest, taxes,
depreciation, amortization, investment income (loss), net, loss on extinguishment of debt, and, if any and when specified, other non-recurring
income or expense items. Management believes that the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income
(loss). Adjusted EBITDA has limitations and should not be considered as an alternative to gross profit or net loss as a measure of operating
performance or to net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing, or financing activities as a measure of ability to meet cash needs.
following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to the most comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss), for the
three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

Core Results, including core gross margin, core net income (loss), core operating income (loss), core basic and diluted income (loss)
per share, and core operating margin, exclude all amortization and impairment charges of intangible assets, excluding software development
costs, net gains and losses on investments and equity securities, including equity method gains and losses and equity valued at fair
value through profit and loss ("FVPL"), preferred stock dividends, and gains/losses on forgiveness of debt. In other periods,
Core Results may also exclude fair value adjustments of financial assets in the form of options to acquire a company carried at FVPL,
obligations related to product recalls, certain acquisition-related items, restructuring charges/releases and associated items, related
legal items, gains/losses on early extinguishment of debt or debt modifications, impairments of property, plant and equipment and software,
as well as income and expense items that management deems exceptional and that are or are expected to accumulate within the year to be
over a $100,000 threshold.
