## Exhibit 99.1

**Lightspeed Announces Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results**<br> *Revenue grew 24% YoY to $188.7M (26% growth in constant currency*<sup>1</sup>) *at the higher end of previously-established outlook* ******<br> *Gross Payments Volume grew 75% YoY to $3.9 billion*******<br> *Customer Locations processing more than $500,000/year in GTV grew by 15% YoY*<sup>2</sup>*<br>Adjusted EBITDA loss significantly ahead of previously-established outlook <br>Lightspeed remains committed to profitable growth with Adjusted EBITDA break even or better*<sup>3</sup> *in fiscal 2024*

**Lightspeed reports in US dollars and in accordance with IFRS.**<br> MONTREAL, February 2, 2023, /CNW Telbec/ - Lightspeed Commerce Inc. ("Lightspeed" or the "Company") (TSX: LSPD) (NYSE: LSPD), the one-stop commerce platform for merchants around the world to simplify, scale and create exceptional customer experiences, today announced financial results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.

"We have spent the last two years building the most compelling commerce platform to help complex SMBs improve productivity, reduce costs, automate operations and use data driven insights to scale their business. We continue to be pleased with the growth we are seeing in this targeted customer base," said JP Chauvet, CEO of Lightspeed. "Our deliberate focus on this group can be seen in our results this quarter, with Customer Locations with annual GTV<sup>6</sup> in excess of $500,000 growing 15% and those over $1 million growing by 19% year-over-year<sup>2</sup>."

Lightspeed's market opportunity remains large as complex SMBs require technology solutions to run their business and navigate challenging times brought on by weaker consumer spending. Lightspeed is focused on attracting the right customers and ensuring that operating expenses are optimized to best serve this market and achieve its goal of profitable growth.

"Having successfully integrated multiple acquisitions, Lightspeed was able to deliver an Adjusted EBITDA loss that was better than the previously-established outlook and the lowest in the past nine quarters." said Asha Bakshani, Chief Financial Officer of Lightspeed. "Lightspeed remains committed to our goal of Adjusted EBITDA break even or better in our next fiscal year<sup>3</sup>, and our leaner organizational structure will enable us to be more nimble as we look to capitalize on the sizable long-term opportunity ahead."

**Third Quarter Financial Highlights**<br> (All comparisons are relative to the three-month period ended December 31, 2021 unless otherwise stated):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Total revenue of $188.7 million, an increase of 24%, or 26% in constant currency<sup>1</sup>

---

**Operational Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Total revenue of $188.7 million was up 24% year-over-year due to organic<sup>5</sup> growth driven by higher ARPU, growing GTV, broader payments adoption and an expanded Customer Location count among high GTV customers. On a constant currency basis<sup>1</sup> revenue grew 26%*.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Subscription and transaction-based revenue grew 26% year-over-year to $181.7 million, all of which was organic growth. On a constant currency basis, subscription and transaction-based revenue<sup>1</sup> grew 28%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Subscription revenue increased 9% year-over-year to $74.5 million. Subscription revenue was positively impacted by a growing Customer Location base among high GTV customers and expanding ARPU. On a constant currency basis, subscription revenue<sup>1</sup> grew 13%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Transaction-based revenue of $107.2 million grew by 41% year-over-year. This performance was a result of continued growth in GTV and an increasing portion of that GTV being processed through the Company's payments solutions. GPV<sup>4</sup> increased 75% to $3.9 billion from $2.2 billion in the same period last year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** In the quarter, Lightspeed remained focused on attracting the right customer profile, those with higher GTV and more complex needs - customers for which Lightspeed's industry-leading solutions are ideally suited. As a result, monthly ARPU<sup>4</sup> for Customer Locations grew by 20% to approximately $348 compared to approximately $290 in the same quarter last year. Subscription ARPU increased to $136 from $131 a year earlier. Lightspeed's customer base continued to shift towards higher GTV Customer Locations with the number of Customer Locations with GTV of over $500,000/year<sup>6</sup> increasing by 15% year-over-year<sup>2</sup>, and Customer Locations with over $1 million/year in GTV increasing by 19% year-over-year<sup>2</sup>. Conversely, the number of Customer Locations processing under $200,000/year in GTV shrank on a year-over-year basis<sup>2</sup>. Customer Locations with GTV of over $500,000/year have a substantially lower risk of churn and higher lifetime value for Lightspeed compared to lower GTV/year customers. Total Customer Locations<sup>4</sup> remained at approximately 167,000, flat to the previous quarter.<sup>7</sup>

<sup>4</sup> Key Performance Indicator. See "Key Performance Indicators".

<sup>5</sup> References herein to "organic" growth exclude the impact of any acquisitions that occurred since the end of the prior comparable period so as to provide a consistent basis of comparison. For greater clarity, where an acquisition occurred part way through the prior comparable period, such acquisition's contributions in the current period are included for purposes of calculating organic growth only to the extent of the same months they were included in the prior comparable period.

<sup>6</sup>A Customer Location's GTV per year is calculated by annualizing the GTV for the months in which the Customer Location is actively processing in the last twelve months.

<sup>7</sup> The Customer Location and ARPU numbers in the paragraph exclude approximately 154,000 Customer Locations as at December 31, 2022 attributable to the Ecwid eCommerce standalone product and approximately 156,000 as at December 31, 2021.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Selected customer wins include: CASETiFY, a leading global technology accessory brand that reaches one in seven millennials, which selected Lightspeed Retail with Payments for its first Australian flagship store; Soletrader, the well-known British shoe retailer that operates 28 locations across the UK adopted Lightspeed Retail with Payments; Le Petit Nice, the three Michelin star restaurant in Provence that chose Lightspeed Restaurant with Payments; the Sky-Line Club, a Chicago fine dining institution since 1926 that chose Lightspeed Restaurant with Payments and Analytics; and joining the Lightspeed B2B network will be Santoni, the luxury hand-made Italian shoe brand, and Gerber Childrenswear.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** For the quarter, Lightspeed's customers processed GTV of $22.4 billion, up 10% year-over-year, and processed $23.8 billion, up 17% year-over-year on a constant currency basis. Omni-channel retail GTV grew by 6% whereas hospitality GTV grew by 16%. The Company saw the impact of the weaker consumer spending conditions on its customers, with several retail verticals experiencing declining GTV per location year-over-year. Hospitality GTV was stronger year-over-year, given the impact of COVID-19 resurgences in the three-month period ended December 31, 2021, but also showed signs of weakness from the previous quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** Net loss in the quarter was ($814.8) million versus ($65.5) million in the same quarter last year. As a percentage of revenue, net loss was (431.8)% versus (42.9)% for the same quarter last year. Net loss includes a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of ($748.7) million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> loss in the quarter was ($5.4) million versus ($7.1) million in the same quarter last year. As a percentage of revenue<sup>1</sup>, Adjusted EBITDA loss was (2.9)% versus (4.7)% for the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA loss came in better than Lightspeed's previously-established outlook due to ongoing financial discipline and revenue that came in at the high end of the previously-established outlook range.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** The Company conducts its annual goodwill impairment test every December 31. Given the decline in the valuations of technology companies broadly and Lightspeed's share price, the Company's net assets exceeded its market capitalization as at December 31, 2022 which was an impairment trigger for the Company. The goodwill impairment test resulted in a non-cash impairment charge of ($748.7) million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In the quarter, the Company announced the addition of Kady Srinivasan to its executive leadership team in the role of Chief Marketing Officer. Ms. Srinivasan is a tenured executive with over 15 years of experience leading, building, and scaling marketing efforts at retail, gaming, consumer products, and technology companies. She comes to Lightspeed from Klaviyo where she served as SVP, Global Head of Marketing. Previously, Srinivasan was the Chief Marketing Officer at Owlet Baby Care and held various roles at Dropbox and Electronic Arts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On January 17, 2023, the Company announced a streamlining and reorganization of operations with a 10% workforce reduction, eliminating approximately 300 roles. This resulted in an estimated incremental restructuring cash charge of $12 million to $14 million, primarily consisting of severance payments, employee benefits and related costs. The Company expects to incur these charges primarily in the Company's fourth quarter. The estimated salary and related benefits from the eliminated roles amount to approximately $25 million annually.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Lightspeed Capital revenue increased by 221% during the quarter from a year ago. As of December 31, 2022, $15.8 million of merchant cash advances were outstanding, up 25% from the previous quarter.

**Financial Outlook**<sup>8</sup>

The following outlook supersedes all prior statements made by the Company and is based on current expectations.

<sup>8</sup> The financial outlook is fully qualified and based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks described under the heading "Forward-Looking Statements" and "Financial Outlook Assumptions" of this press release.

------

Lightspeed expects consumer spending to remain under pressure in the near term and, given that transaction-based revenues are now over half of total revenues, this presents a headwind in the months ahead. Lightspeed will continue to prudently manage the business while macro uncertainty continues and will prioritize profitable growth.

For the full year of fiscal 2023, Lightspeed now expects an Adjusted EBITDA loss<sup>1</sup> of approximately ($37) million, improved from previously-established outlook of approximately ($40) million. The Company now expects annual revenue to come in at the low end of the previously established outlook of $730 - $740 million (or approximately $740 million - $750 million on a constant currency basis<sup>1</sup>).

The Company remains committed to its goal of Adjusted EBITDA break even or better<sup>3</sup> in fiscal 2024.

**Financial Outlook Assumptions**

When calculating the Adjusted EBITDA and revenue at constant currency included in our financial outlook for the fourth quarter and full year ended March 31, 2023, we considered IFRS measures including revenue, direct cost of revenue, and operating expenses. Our financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions, including that the jurisdictions in which Lightspeed has significant operations do not drastically strengthen or re-strengthen strict measures put in place to help slow the transmission of COVID-19 or put in place new or additional measures in response to a resurgence of the virus or the proliferation of a new variant thereof; requests for subscription pauses and churn rates owing to business failures remain in line with planned levels; our ability to grow our Customer Locations in line with our planned levels (particularly in higher GTV cohorts); revenue streams resulting from partner referrals remaining in line with historical rates (particularly in light of the continued expansion of our payments solutions, which compete with the solutions offered by some of these referral partners); customers adopting our payments solutions having an average GTV at or above that of our planned levels; future uptake of our payments solutions remaining in line with past rates and expectations, including that transaction-based revenue growth will be more than twice the rate of subscription revenue growth year-over-year; gross margins reflecting this trend in revenue mix; our ability to price our payments solutions in line with our expectations and to achieve suitable margins; our ability to achieve success in the continued expansion of our

payments solutions; historical seasonal trends return to certain of our key verticals and impact our GTV and transaction-based revenues; continued success in module adoption expansion throughout our customer base; our ability to derive the benefits we expect from the acquisitions we have completed including expected synergies resulting from the prioritization of our flagship Lightspeed Retail and Lightspeed Restaurant offerings; market acceptance and adoption of our flagship offerings; our ability to attract and retain key personnel required to achieve our plans; our expectations regarding the costs, timing and impact of our cost reduction initiatives; our ability to manage customer churn; our ability to manage customer discount and payment deferral requests; and assumptions as to inflation, changes in interest rates, consumer spending, foreign exchange rates and other macroeconomic conditions. Our financial outlook does not give effect to the potential impact of acquisitions that may be announced or closed after the date hereof. Our financial outlook, including the various underlying assumptions, constitutes forward-looking information and should be read in conjunction with the cautionary statement on forward-looking information below. Many factors may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to the risks and uncertainties related to: any pandemic such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the risk of any new or continued resurgence of the COVID-19 virus or any variants or mutations in our core geographies and the resulting impact on SMBs, including heightened levels of churn owing to business failures, requests for subscription pauses and delayed purchase decisions; the Russian invasion of Ukraine and reactions thereto; our inability to attract and retain customers; our inability to increase customer sales; our inability to implement our growth strategy; our inability to continue the acceleration of the global rollout and adoption of our payments solutions; our reliance on a small number of cloud service suppliers and suppliers for parts of the technology in our payments solutions; our ability to maintain sufficient levels of hardware inventory; our inability to improve and enhance the functionality, performance, reliability, design, security and scalability of our platform; our ability to prevent and manage information security breaches or other cyber-security threats; our ability to compete against competitors; strategic relations with third parties; our reliance on integration of third-party payment processing solutions; compatibility of our solutions with third-party applications and systems; changes to technologies on which our platform is reliant; our ability to obtain, maintain and protect our intellectual property; risks relating to international operations, sales and use of our platform in various countries; our liquidity and capital resources; litigation and regulatory compliance; changes in tax laws and their application; our ability to expand our sales, marketing and support capability and capacity; our ability to execute on our cost reduction initiatives; maintaining our customer service levels and reputation; macroeconomic factors affecting small and medium-sized businesses, including inflation, changes in interest rates, consumer spending trends; and exchange rate fluctuations. The purpose of the forward-looking information is to provide the reader with a description of management's expectations regarding our financial performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes.

**Long-Term Financial Outlook**

Our long-term targets reflect the current trend of customer adoption of our payments solutions resulting in an increased proportion of transaction-based revenue relative to higher margin subscription-based revenue. Our long-term targets also reflect a gradual increase in operating leverage, including as a result of increased ARPU and the benefits of increased scale in our primary operating expense lines. Our long-term targets constitute financial outlook and forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The purpose of communicating long-term targets is to provide a description of management's expectations regarding our intended operating model, financial performance and growth prospects at a further stage of business maturity. Such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

A number of assumptions were made by the Company in preparing our long-term targets, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Economic conditions in our core geographies and verticals, including consumer confidence, disposable income, consumer spending and employment, remaining at close to current levels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The COVID-19 pandemic, including any variants, having durably subsided with broad immunity achieved in our core geographies and verticals, including the elimination of social distancing measures and other restrictions generally in such markets.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Customer adoption of our payments solutions in line with past rates and expectations, with new customers having an average GTV at or above planned levels.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Gross margin continuing to decrease as a percentage of revenue as more customers adopt our payments solutions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to price our payment processing solutions in line with our expectations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to achieve success in the continued expansion of our payments solutions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Revenue streams resulting from partner referrals remaining in line with historical rates (particularly in light of the continued expansion of our payments solutions, which compete with the solutions offered by some of these referral partners).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Long-term growth in ARPU of 10% or more per year, including growth in subscription ARPU, in line with past rates and expectations, driven by customer adoption of additional solutions and modules and the introduction of new solutions, modules and functionalities, including our flagship Lightspeed Retail and Lightspeed Restaurant offerings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to price solutions and modules in line with our expectations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to recognize synergies and reinvest those synergies in core areas of the business as we prioritize our flagship Lightspeed Retail and Lightspeed Restaurant offerings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Growth in and composition of Customer Locations in line with our strategy of focusing our attention on higher GTV customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to successfully integrate acquired companies and to derive expected benefits from such acquisitions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to attract, develop and retain key personnel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to execute on our cost reduction initiatives.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The ability to effectively develop and expand our labour force, including our sales, marketing, support and product and technology operations, in each case both domestically and internationally.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to manage customer churn.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to manage requests for subscription pauses, customer discounts and payment deferral requests.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Assumptions as to foreign exchange rates and interest rates, including inflation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to successfully sell our Lightspeed Capital offering to our customers.

Our financial outlook does not give effect to the potential impact of acquisitions that may be announced or closed after the date hereof. Many factors may cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such targets, including risk factors identified in our most recent Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation and under "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Information Form. In particular, our long-term targets are subject to risks and uncertainties related to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The COVID-19 pandemic, including the risk of any new or continued resurgence in our core geographies and the resulting impact on SMBs, including heightened levels of churn owing to business failures, requests for subscription pauses, payment deferrals and delayed purchase decisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Russian invasion of Ukraine and reactions thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Supply chain risk and the impact of shortages in the supply chain on our merchants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other macroeconomic factors affecting SMBs, including inflation, changes in interest rates and consumer spending trends.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to manage the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on our revenues and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to implement our growth strategy and the impact of competition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The substantial investments and expenditures required in the foreseeable future to expand our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our liquidity and capital resources, including our ability to secure debt or equity financing on satisfactory terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to increase scale and operating leverage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to continue the acceleration of the global rollout and adoption of our payments solutions.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our reliance on a small number of cloud service providers and suppliers for parts of the technology in our payments solutions.

**Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios**

The information presented herein includes certain non-IFRS financial measures such as "Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted Income (Loss)", "Adjusted Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities", "Non-IFRS gross profit", "Non-IFRS general and administrative expenses", "Non-IFRS research and development expenses", "Non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses", "Revenue at constant currency", "Subscription revenue at constant currency" and "Subscription and transaction-based revenue at constant currency" and certain non-IFRS ratios such as "Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue", "Adjusted Income (Loss) per Share - Basic and

------

Diluted", "Non-IFRS gross profit as a percentage of revenue", "Non-IFRS general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue", "Non-IFRS research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue", "Non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue", "Revenue growth at constant currency", "Subscription revenue growth at constant currency" and "Subscription and transaction-based revenue growth at constant currency". These measures and ratios are not recognized measures and ratios under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures and ratios presented by other companies. Rather, these measures and ratios are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures and ratios by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures and ratios should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. These non-IFRS measures and ratios are used to provide investors with supplemental measures and ratios of our operating performance and thus may highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures and ratios. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and ratios in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures and ratios in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. During the nine months ended December 31, 2022, the Company introduced the new non-IFRS measures: "Revenue at constant currency", "Subscription revenue at constant currency" and "Subscription and transaction-based revenue at constant currency", and the new non-IFRS ratios: "Revenue growth at constant currency", "Subscription revenue growth at constant currency" and "Subscription and transaction-based revenue growth at constant currency".

**"Adjusted EBITDA"** is defined as net loss excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes, compensation expenses relating to acquisitions completed, foreign exchange gains and losses, transaction-related costs, restructuring, litigation provisions and goodwill impairment. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance, as it helps illustrate underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the income or expenses that are not indicative of the core operating performance of our business.

**"Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue"** is calculated by dividing our Adjusted EBITDA by our total revenue. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue provides a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance, as it helps illustrate underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the income or expenses that are not indicative of the core operating performance of our business.

**"Adjusted Income (Loss)"** is defined as net loss excluding amortization of intangibles, as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes, compensation expenses relating to acquisitions completed, transaction-related costs, restructuring, litigation provisions, deferred income tax recovery and goodwill impairment. We use this measure as we believe excluding amortization of intangibles and certain other non-cash or non-operational expenditures provides a helpful supplementary indicator of our business performance as it allows for more accurate comparability across periods.

**"Adjusted Income (Loss) per Share - Basic and Diluted"** is defined as Adjusted Income (Loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares (basic and diluted). We use Adjusted Income (Loss) per Share - Basic and Diluted to provide a helpful supplemental indicator of the performance and profitability of our business on a per share (basic and diluted) basis.

**"Adjusted Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities"** is defined as cash flows used in operating activities as adjusted for the payment of payroll taxes on share-based compensation, the payment of compensation expenses relating to acquisitions completed, the payment of transaction-related costs, the payment of restructuring costs, the payment of amounts related to litigation provisions net of amounts received as insurance and indemnification proceeds and the payment of amounts related to capitalized internal development costs. We use this measure as we believe excluding certain inflows and outflows

------

provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our business performance in regard to the Company's ability to generate cash flow.

**"Non-IFRS gross profit"** is defined as gross profit as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes. We use this measure as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our business performance in regard to the Company's performance and profitability.

**"Non-IFRS gross profit as a percentage of revenue"** is calculated by dividing our Non-IFRS gross profit by our total revenue. We use this ratio as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our business performance in regard to the Company's performance and profitability.

**"Non-IFRS general and administrative expenses"** is defined as general and administrative expenses as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes, transaction-related costs and litigation provisions. We use this measure as we believe excluding certain charges provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Non-IFRS general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue"** is calculated by dividing our Non-IFRS general and administrative expenses by our total revenue. We use this ratio as we believe excluding certain charges provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Non-IFRS research and development expenses"** is defined as research and development expenses as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes. We use this measure as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Non-IFRS research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue"** is calculated by dividing our Non-IFRS research and development expenses by our total revenue. We use this ratio as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses"** is defined as sales and marketing expenses as adjusted for share-based compensation and related payroll taxes and transaction-related costs. We use this measure as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes and transaction-related costs provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue"** is calculated by dividing our Non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses by our total revenue. We use this ratio as we believe excluding share-based compensation and related payroll taxes and transaction-related costs provides a helpful supplemental indicator to investors on our operating expenditures.

**"Revenue at constant currency"** means revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Current revenue in currencies other than US dollars is converted into US dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the corresponding months in the prior fiscal year rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. We believe this measure provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

**"Revenue growth at constant currency"** means the year-over-year change in revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We believe this ratio provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

------

**"Subscription revenue at constant currency"** means subscription revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Current subscription revenue in currencies other than US dollars is converted into US dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the corresponding months in the prior fiscal year rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. We believe this measure provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable subscription revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

**"Subscription revenue growth at constant currency"** means the year-over-year change in subscription revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We believe this ratio provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable subscription revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

**"Subscription and transaction-based revenue at constant currency"** means subscription and transaction-based revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Current subscription and transaction-based revenue in currencies other than US dollars is converted into US dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the corresponding months in the prior fiscal year rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. We believe this measure provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable subscription and transaction-based revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

**"Subscription and transaction-based revenue growth at constant currency"** means the year-over-year change in subscription and transaction-based revenue at constant currency divided by reported revenue in the prior period. We believe this ratio provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable subscription and transaction-based revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.

See the financial tables below for a reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial measures and ratios.

**Key Performance Indicators**

We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. These key performance indicators are also used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures and ratios. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner different than similar key performance indicators used by other companies.

**ARPU.** "**Average Revenue Per User**" or "**ARPU**" represents the total subscription revenue and transaction-based revenue of the Company in the period divided by the number of Customer Locations of the Company in the period. We use this measure as we believe it provides a helpful supplemental indicator of our progress in growing the revenue that we derive from our customer base. For greater clarity, the number of Customer Locations of the Company in the period is calculated by taking the average number of Customer Locations throughout the period.

**Customer Locations.** "**Customer Location**" means a billing merchant location for which the term of services have not ended, or with which we are negotiating a renewal contract, and, in the case of NuORDER, a brand with a direct or indirect paid subscription for which the terms of services have not ended or in respect of which we are negotiating a subscription renewal. A single unique customer can have multiple Customer Locations including physical and eCommerce sites and in the case of NuORDER, multiple subscriptions. We use this measure as we believe that our ability to increase the number of

------

Customer Locations with a high GTV per year served by our platform is an indicator of our success in terms of market penetration and growth of our business.

**Gross Payment Volume.** "**Gross Payment Volume**" **or** "**GPV**" means the total dollar value of transactions processed, excluding amounts processed through the NuORDER solution, in the period through our payments solutions in respect of which we act as the principal in the arrangement with the customer, net of refunds, inclusive of shipping and handling, duty and value-added taxes. We use this measure as we believe that growth in our GPV demonstrates the extent to which we have scaled our payments solutions. As the number of Customer Locations using our payments solutions grows, particularly those with a high GTV, we will generate more GPV and see higher transaction-based revenue. We have excluded amounts processed through the NuORDER solution from our GPV because they represent business-to-business volume rather than business-to-consumer volume and we do not currently have a robust payments solution for business-to-business volume.

**Gross Transaction Volume**. "**Gross Transaction Volume**" or "**GTV**" means the total dollar value of transactions processed through our cloud-based software-as-a-service platform, excluding amounts processed through the NuORDER solution, in the period, net of refunds, inclusive of shipping and handling, duty and value-added taxes. We use this measure as we believe GTV is an indicator of the success of our customers and the strength of our platform. GTV does not represent revenue earned by us. We have excluded amounts processed through the NuORDER solution from our GTV because they represent business-to-business volume rather than business-to-consumer volume and we do not currently have a robust payments solution for business-to-business volume.

**Gross Transaction Volume at constant currency**. "**Gross Transaction Volume at constant currency**" or "**GTV at constant currency**" means GTV adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Current GTV for currencies other than US dollars is converted into US dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the corresponding months in the prior fiscal year rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. We use this measure as we believe GTV at constant currency provides a helpful supplemental indicator of the success of our customers and strength of our platform, without the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(7)</sup>In periods where we reported an Adjusted Loss, as a result of the Adjusted Losses incurred, all potentially-dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Loss per Share - Diluted because including them would be anti-dilutive. Adjusted Loss per Share - Diluted is the same as Adjusted Loss per Share - Basic in these periods where we incurred an Adjusted Loss. In the three months ended December 31, 2022, an Adjusted Income was reported. The weighted average number of common shares was not adjusted for the dilutive effect of all potentially dilutive securities for the three months ended December 31, 2022 as Adjusted Income per Share - Basic and Diluted would be the same amount with or without the dilutive effect of all potentially dilutive securities given that the Adjusted Income per Share - Basic was already 0.00.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<sup>(1)</sup>Current revenue in currencies other than US dollars is converted into US dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the corresponding months in the prior fiscal year rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. We believe this measure provides a helpful supplemental indicator on comparable revenue growth by removing the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates year-over-year to aid investors to better understand our performance.
