 %(1) Amortization of internal-use software assets and developed technology assets. In March 2025, the Company recognized additional charges of $3.0 million, due to certain capitalized internal use software is no longer expected to provide future economic benefits as a result of changes in business strategy and evolving technology initiatives.

Total Adjusted Gross Margin (non-GAAP) was 41.3% for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, from 38.6% for the nine months ended March 31, 2024.

other significant infrequent or unusual losses and gains that are not indicative of our core operations such as integration and acquisition expenses and costs as a result of auditor transitions.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors in comparing our financial performance to other companies and from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors and securities analysts to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and interest income, which can vary substantially from company to company depending on their financing and capital structures and the method by which their assets were acquired. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the impact of certain items that may obscure trends in the underlying performance of our business. Additionally, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as a metric in our executive officer and management incentive compensation plans.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, although depreciation expense is a non-cash charge, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new asset acquisitions. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation
