Quarter 2022 Financial Summary
revenues for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021, decreased 6% to $2.4 million, compared to $2.6 million,
respectively. The consolidated decrease in revenue, is driven by decreases in revenue attributed to our TRxADE Prime and Community Specialty

6% and 10%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2021.

of Non-GAAP Financial Information
addition to our results calculated under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), in this
earnings release, we also present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA which are "non-GAAP financial measures" presented as supplemental
measures of the Company's performance. They are not presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable
to TRxADE HEALTH, Inc. before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based
compensation expense, bad debt recovery, bad debt write-off, gain on disposal of asset, litigation expenses, loss (gain) on inventory
investment and loss (gain) on impairment of goodwill. 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 are also frequently used
by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures
are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial
and operational decision-making and (2) they are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the
health of our business. 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 HEALTH, Inc. does, limiting its usefulness as a comparative
measure. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized in accordance with GAAP, are unaudited, and have limitations as analytical tools,
and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.
The Company's presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by
unusual or nonrecurring items. We compensate for these limitations by providing a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP measures to
the most comparable GAAP measure. We encourage investors and others to review our business, results of operations, and financial information
in their entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view these non-GAAP measures in conjunction with the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures, please see the section titled "Reconciliation
of Net Income (Loss) attributable to TRxADE HEALTH, INC., to Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
