Attached Selected Supplemental Financial Data tables disclose amounts reflected in our historical financial results and include
the balance sheet and results of operations for a comparable period. Trxade utilizes certain financial measures that are not calculated
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to access its financial performance such as working capital.
This presentation should be viewed as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, the results of operations presented on a GAAP
basis. Stockholders are encouraged to review the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
of Non-GAAP Financial Information
earnings release discusses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These measurements are not recognized in accordance with GAAP and should
not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based compensation expense and gain (loss) in equity investment.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because we believe they provide additional useful information to investors due to the
various noncash items during the period. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider
them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations
are: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual
commitments; EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and EBITDA
and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or
principal payments, on debt or cash income tax payments. Although depreciation and amortization are noncash charges, the assets
being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any
cash requirements for such replacements. Additionally, other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
differently than Trxade Group, Inc. does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. See also "Reconciliation of
Net Income attributable to Trxade Group, Inc., to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and
Adjusted EBITDA", below.
