**Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.**

On February 16, 2023, DoorDash posted supplemental investor materials on the investor relations section of its website (ir.doordash.com). DoorDash announces material information to the public about DoorDash, its products and services, and other matters through a variety of means, including filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, public conference calls, webcasts, the investor relations section of its website (ir.doordash.com), its blog (blog.doordash.com) and its Twitter account (@DoorDash) in order to achieve broad, non-exclusionary distribution of information to the public and for complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD.

The information in Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

**Item 8.01 Other Events.**

On February 16, 2023, DoorDash announced the authorization of a share repurchase program for the repurchase of shares of its Class A common stock, in an aggregate amount of up to $750 million. This program is in addition to the prior repurchase program for the repurchase of $400 million shares of Class A common stock, which was completed in the third

------

quarter of fiscal 2022. The goal of the program is to offset a portion of the dilution associated with restricted stock units issued to employees as part of the Company's overall compensation program. The Company's board of directors expects to assess any future repurchase programs based on its balance sheet, expected free cash flow, and alternative investment opportunities at the time. Any future authorization will be approved and executed consistent with the the Company's capital allocation strategy.

Repurchases may be made from time to time through open market repurchases or through privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other relevant factors. Open market repurchases may be structured to occur in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act. DoorDash may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its Class A common stock, and it may be suspended at any time at the Company's discretion. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased may depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities.

## Exhibit 99.1

![image161a.jpg](image161a.jpg)

**Exhibit 99.1**

February 16, 2023

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

DoorDash's mission is to grow and empower local economies. In 2022, we were proud to generate over $38 billion in sales for local merchants and over $13 billion in earnings for Dashers, while growing Marketplace GOV by 27% year-over-year (Y/Y) to $53.4 billion. In Q4, we grew Marketplace GOV by 29% Y/Y to $14.4 billion. Monthly Active Users (MAUs)<sup>1</sup> in December increased to over 32 million from over 25 million a year ago, with Y/Y growth in both DoorDash and Wolt MAUs. DashPass and Wolt+ members at year-end increased to over 15 million<sup>2</sup> from over 10 million a year ago.

2022 was unique and challenging in many ways. But, similar to past years, consumers showed they love convenient access to their favorite local merchants, Dashers showed they value and appreciate the accessibility and flexibility that dashing provides, and local merchants showed they are eager for services that help them build and grow omni-channel businesses. The seamless combination of physical and digital services in local commerce is far from complete, which means our work is far from done. We must remain builders, innovators, and risk-takers if we are to achieve the goals we have for our business and the communities we serve.

**A Brief Review of Q4 and 2022**

In Q4 and 2022, we generated strong growth in Marketplace GOV, grew our user base with an increased penetration of DashPass members, made significant improvements to the quality of the consumer experience, expanded the scale of our non-restaurant categories, and improved margin trends in many of our categories and countries.

In Q4, total Marketplace GOV increased by 29% Y/Y to $14.4 billion, which was above the high end of the outlook range we provided. Q4 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests was $642 million, which was negatively impacted by a $312 million impairment to an investment in non-marketable equity securities and restructuring charges of $84 million. Q4 Adjusted EBITDA was $117 million, which was within the outlook range we provided.

Excluding the impact of Wolt for comparison purposes, Q4 DoorDash Marketplace GOV increased 20% Y/Y to $13.4 billion. In euros, Q4 Wolt Marketplace GOV increased 50% Y/Y to €1.0 billion. Based on third-party data, we believe we gained category share in the U.S. and in many of our international markets in Q4, with U.S. share gains in the restaurant, convenience, and grocery categories.

For the full year 2022, we grew total Marketplace GOV by 27% Y/Y to $53.4 billion. On a pro forma basis, including the results from Wolt for all of 2021 and 2022, 2022 Marketplace GOV grew by 23% Y/Y. 2022 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests was $1.4 billion, which compared to 2021 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests of $468 million. 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $361 million, an increase from $289 million in 2021.

**Our Marketplaces: The Consumer Experience**

In 2022, we remained maniacally focused on improving the consumer experience we provide. Our goal is to make our service at least a tiny bit better and more efficient every day, and then compound those gains over time, as we believe this improves the long-term growth and margin potential of our business. From December 2021 to December 2022, on the DoorDash marketplace, we lowered our average delivery time by 10%, reduced extreme lateness, increased our site reliability, added selection in all of our categories, and reduced average transaction fees<sup>3</sup> per order by over 8%. Each of these had a tangible impact on the consumer experience, which we believe contributed to our growth and share gains through the year.

While we are pleased with our progress, our consumer experience is still nowhere near where we would like it to be. We now operate DoorDash and Wolt marketplaces in 27 countries around the world with a combined population of over 750 million people, the majority of whom likely shop in the categories we participate in fairly frequently. We believe a service with ubiquitous selection, near-perfect quality, tremendous affordability, and great service would be able to win consumers' choice in many of their shopping occasions. In Q4, our marketplaces drove less than one order per capita per month in every country we operate in. We have a lot of room to improve.

<sup>3</sup> Transaction fees include applicable delivery, service, small order, and legislative fees, but excludes subscription fees.

------

As we make improvements to the consumer experience, it often drives higher operating efficiency as well as increased order volume. As planned, we generated positive variable profit<sup>4</sup> in our third-party convenience category in the U.S. in Q4. In 2023, we believe margins will improve in our U.S. restaurant marketplace and in many of our investment areas. We expect this combination to contribute to 2023 Adjusted EBITDA increasing on both a dollar basis and as a percentage of Marketplace GOV.

**Maximizing Long-Term Free Cash Flow Per Share**

Our primary financial goal is to maximize long-term Free Cash Flow per share. This does not mean we intend to march Free Cash Flow steadily higher each year. The local commerce market is large and we are constantly looking for new services to launch and new businesses to build. In some years, we will likely invest larger amounts or spend more on longer-term projects, which could constrain short-term Free Cash Flow. In other years, we may see significant margin improvement in existing businesses or invest more in short-term opportunities that drive a faster return, which could benefit short-term Free Cash Flow. Regardless, our goal is to apply a consistent philosophy and rigor to our investments in an effort to steadily build scale in our business. We believe this is the best way to increase our long-term Free Cash Flow potential and maximize the impact we have on the local communities we are part of.

When thinking about investing in our business, we have a wide range of options, each of which has a different impact on our volume and margins, a different time horizon for that impact, and different levels of efficiency based on circumstances, time, and scale. Our goal in day-to-day execution and long-term planning is to balance our investments across these opportunities in order to maximize absolute dollar returns over time, not margin percentages. We do this because we believe driving higher Free Cash Flow in absolute terms is the best way to build a large and durable business.

If we targeted a margin percentage, we believe it would constrain our opportunity set, particularly as it relates to longer-term investments or initiatives like DashPass. Managing to a long-term margin percentage would also suggest we know precisely how efficient each area of investment will be many years into the future. Unfortunately, we have not figured that out yet.

We are not perfectly efficient with our spending, nor do we expect to be. We have to test and make mistakes in order to learn. Our goal is to steadily improve our efficiency over time. If we do this successfully, it should free up more capital, which we can then choose to invest in short or long-term growth initiatives, or drive higher margins.

*Detail on Recent Free Cash Flow Conversion* 

In 2022, we generated $361 million of Adjusted EBITDA, $367 million of net cash provided by operating activities, and $21 million of Free Cash Flow. In comparison, in 2021, we generated $289 million of Adjusted EBITDA, $692 million of net cash provided by operating activities, and $455 million of Free Cash Flow. In 2022, we drove significant growth in cash generation from our U.S. restaurant marketplace and chose to invest much of the incremental cash into long-term growth initiatives. This negatively impacted our 2022 Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow, but we believe will contribute to higher Free Cash Flow over time.

In addition to growth investments, our 2022 Free Cash Flow was impacted by three additional factors: 1) a $170 million impact from 2022 ending on a Saturday, which resulted in one extra day of cash held at payment processors, 2) the payment of a $100 million legal settlement in Q2 2022 that was previously reserved for, and 3) $74 million of cash paid for transaction-related costs, primarily associated with our acquisition of Wolt. Collectively, these factors reduced 2022 Free Cash Flow by $344 million. Absent these factors, 2022 Free Cash Flow would have been $365 million, roughly in line with 2022 Adjusted EBITDA.

For 2023, we currently expect Free Cash Flow to increase substantially compared to 2022. However, 2023 Free Cash Flow is likely to be below 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, in part because 2023 ends on a Sunday. This means we expect to have one extra day of cash held at payment processors at the end of 2023 compared to 2022, and two extra days of cash held at payment processors compared to the end of 2021. While the day of the week a period ends on can impact our reported

<sup>4</sup> Variable profit is a metric used internally to evaluate the performance of certain categories prior to allocation of shared use fixed costs. It is defined as revenue minus order management and support costs.

3![image_131a.jpg](image_131a.jpg)

------

Free Cash Flow, it does not impact our normal operations. We believe our normalized working capital<sup>5</sup> cycle (excluding the impact of certain periods ending on a weekend) remains positive. If you're interested, 2024 ends on a Tuesday.

**The Value Of Our Shares**

Managing dilution is the other half of maximizing long-term Free Cash Flow per share. For us, managing dilution does not mean limiting share growth to zero, but rather recognizing the cost of our equity and trying to maximize the value we get from the shares we issue.

In 2022, we issued equity for two primary purposes: 1) to acquire Wolt and 2) to compensate employees for their time, effort, and contributions to our business. These drove our total base of basic shares, stock options, and restricted stock units (RSUs) to approximately 452 million on December 31, 2022, up from 393 million on December 31, 2021.

In connection with the Wolt transaction, we issued approximately 46 million shares of our common stock, stock options, and RSUs.<sup>6</sup> We remain very pleased with our combination with Wolt and continue to believe this was an attractive use of our equity capital.

We believe stock-based compensation is a valuable way to reinforce an ownership mentality throughout our organization and align incentives between employees and shareholders. Stock-based compensation has both an accounting expense and a cost in its dilutive impact to shares outstanding. We consider both of these.

Reported stock-based compensation expense can sometimes provide a good proxy for what it would cost to pay employees in cash. But, it can also deviate from the estimated cash equivalent cost depending on the source of the accounting cost and the accounting method applied. In 2022, we estimate approximately 34% of our stock-based compensation expense related to costs that were either one-time in nature or likely deviate from the cash equivalent cost.<sup>7</sup>

With dilution, a share that is issued and vested has the same cost to shareholders regardless of source or accounting treatment. Further, dilution compounds over time. Since our focus is on maximizing long-term Free Cash Flow per share, we currently think about stock-based compensation more in terms of dilution than accounting expense. However, over a multi-year time horizon, we expect the dilutive impact and accounting expense from stock-based compensation to move in concert, and our goal is to manage this cost regardless of how it is measured.

In 2022, we issued approximately 19 million RSUs net of forfeitures,<sup>8</sup> which was approximately 5% of our total base of shares and potentially dilutive securities exiting 2021. Our 2022 RSU issuance increased substantially due to the significant increase in headcount in 2021 and 2022, and the lower average stock price in 2022 compared to 2021.

Like with all forms of pay, we hope to generate leverage on our stock-based compensation expense over time and reduce the dilutive impact of issuing shares to employees. Currently, because we believe we can significantly increase the value of our business, we believe repurchasing shares is an attractive way to reduce dilution and improve long-term Free Cash Flow per share. In 2022, we repurchased 5.6 million shares of our Class A common stock for $400 million.

In February 2023, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $750 million of our Class A common stock. We currently expect net dilution in 2023 to be around 2%<sup>9</sup>.

<sup>5</sup> Working capital is defined as the sum of changes in assets and liabilities on our consolidated statements of cash flows.

<sup>6</sup> We issued 35.8 million shares to Wolt shareholders and granted 7.3 million RSUs to Wolt employees to encourage retention. We also converted existing Wolt stock options for continuing employees into 3.1 million shares of DoorDash RSUs and stock options.

<sup>7</sup> In 2022, stock-based compensation expense included $112 million associated with a CEO performance award, $93 million associated with retention and revesting as part of the Wolt transaction, an estimated $88 million associated with the step-up of value for grants issued prior to our IPO, and $11 million in expense associated with our November reduction in force.

<sup>8</sup> Excludes 7.3 million RSUs issued to Wolt employees to encourage retention and 1.4 million RSUs issued to Wolt employees in exchange for pre-existing Wolt unvested options.

<sup>9</sup> Measured against the total base of basic shares outstanding and anti-dilutive securities, which was 452 million on December 31, 2022. The actual net dilution in 2023 will depend on a number of factors including, among other things, the size of the repurchase program that we complete and the price at which shares are repurchased.

**Conclusion**

As we think back on 2022, our team's focus and consistent execution stand out. In welcoming Wolt, driving growth through a challenging environment, progressing in key new initiatives, and making difficult decisions about projects and headcount, we demonstrated a combination of first-principles thinking, purposeful collaboration, and humanity that make DoorDash unique. As we look forward, we must continuously improve our level of execution, while also remaining innovators and risk-takers.

We also want to take a moment to acknowledge our outgoing President and COO Christopher Payne. Christopher has made an indelible mark on DoorDash, shaping our culture, co-creating our systems and processes, and mentoring and coaching our future leaders. After more than three decades of building and running new businesses, including more than seven years here at DoorDash, he is retiring from operating roles and day-to-day management. Effective March 1, 2023, Prabir Adarkar will be stepping into the role of President and COO and Ravi Inukonda, our Vice President of Finance and Strategy, into the CFO role. Prabir and Ravi both joined DoorDash during a pivotal time and, over the years, have proven their capabilities, while helping us secure category leadership in the U.S., launch multiple businesses globally, and grow sales more than 7x while improving our unit economics. I can think of no one in or outside of our industry who is more qualified for these positions than Prabir and Ravi.

The migration toward omni-channel commerce is likely to continue for several decades. For DoorDash to achieve its mission of empowering local economies, we must relentlessly improve our existing services and create entirely new ones. Remaining innovators is the only way we know to help local merchants successfully build and grow their businesses, create more opportunities for Dashers to generate incremental income, and give consumers easier ways to discover and transact with the wonderful merchants in their communities. Our expectations of ourselves are high. We will do our best to exceed them.

We could not be more grateful to our employees and stakeholders for the confidence they place in us, or more humbled by our shareholders who entrust us with their capital. Thank you for making this journey possible.

Sincerely,

Tony Xu, Co-founder, CEO and Board Chair, and Prabir Adarkar, CFO and incoming President and COO

**Financial and Operational Highlights**

Q4 2022 Total Orders increased 27% Y/Y to 467 million from 369 million in Q4 2021. The Y/Y growth in Total Orders was driven by growth in consumers and consumer engagement at DoorDash as well as our acquisition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 Marketplace GOV increased 29% Y/Y to $14.4 billion from $11.2 billion in Q4 2021. The Y/Y growth in Marketplace GOV was driven primarily by organic growth in Total Orders as well as our acquisition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 Revenue increased 40% Y/Y to $1.8 billion from $1.3 billion in Q4 2021. Net Revenue Margin, defined as revenue as a percentage of Marketplace GOV, increased to 12.6% in Q4 2022 from 11.6% in Q4 2021. The Y/Y increase in Net Revenue Margin was driven primarily by a reduction in credits, refunds, discounts, and promotions as a percentage of Marketplace GOV, which was partially offset by an increased mix of orders from international markets, non-restaurant categories, and DashPass members.

Q4 2022 GAAP cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, increased 60% to $1.0 billion from $635 million in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 adjusted cost of revenue increased by 59% Y/Y to $975 million from $614 million in Q4 2021. The increase in adjusted cost of revenue was driven by growth in Total Orders, increased insurance reserves, and costs associated with our first-party distribution business, as well as an increase in headcount.

Q4 2022 GAAP gross profit increased 20% to $762 million from $637 million in Q4 2021. GAAP gross profit as a percentage of Marketplace GOV decreased to 5.3% in Q4 2022 from 5.7% in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 Adjusted Gross Profit increased 23% Y/Y to $843 million from $686 million in Q4 2021. Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of Marketplace GOV decreased to 5.8% in Q4 2022 from 6.1% in Q4 2021 due primarily to our acquisition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 GAAP sales and marketing expenses increased 4% to $429 million from $413 million in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 adjusted sales and marketing expense was $396 million, consistent with $395 million in Q4 2021, driven primarily by a Y/Y decline in advertising costs that was offset by growth in headcount and the addition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 Contribution Profit increased 54% Y/Y to $447 million from $291 million in Q4 2021. Contribution Profit as a percentage of Marketplace GOV increased to 3.1% in Q4 2022 from 2.6% in Q4 2021.

Q4 2022 GAAP research and development expenses increased 88% to $250 million from $133 million in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 adjusted research and development expenses increased 72% Y/Y to $131 million, driven by growth in headcount and the addition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 GAAP general and administrative expenses increased 34% to $300 million from $224 million in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 adjusted general and administrative expenses increased 18% Y/Y to $199 million, driven primarily by growth in headcount and the addition of Wolt.

Q4 2022 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests was $642 million compared to a GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests of $155 million in Q4 2021. Q4 2022 GAAP net loss including redeemable non-controlling interests was negatively impacted by a $312 million impairment to an investment in non-marketable equity securities. Q4 2022 Adjusted EBITDA was $117 million compared to $47 million for Q4 2021.

Operating cash flow in Q4 2022 was $23 million and Free Cash Flow was $(73) million. In 2022, we generated operating cash flow of $367 million and Free Cash Flow of $21 million.

**Q1 and 2023 Outlook**

We currently expect Q1 Marketplace GOV to be in a range of $15.1 billion to $15.5 billion, with Q1 Adjusted EBITDA expected to be in a range of $120 million to $170 million.

We currently expect 2023 Marketplace GOV to be in a range of $60.0 billion to $63.0 billion, with Adjusted EBITDA expected to be in a range of $500 million to $800 million.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Period | Marketplace GOV | Adj. EBITDA |
| Q1 | $15.1 billion - $15.5 billion | $120 million - $170 million |
| 2023 | $60.0 billion - $63.0 billion | $500 million - $800 million |

---

Among other things, our Q1 and 2023 outlook anticipates a consumer spending environment that is broadly consistent with recent months. It also anticipates significant levels of ongoing investment in new categories and international markets. Our forecast assumes key foreign currency rates remain stable at current levels. We caution investors that consumer spending could deteriorate faster or to a greater degree than we anticipate, which could drive results below our expectations. Additionally, our increased international exposure heightens risks associated with operating in foreign markets, including geopolitical and currency risks, and changes in the international operating environment could negatively impact results versus our current outlook.

We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent to our Adjusted EBITDA outlook or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation and income tax. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP guidance metric to its corresponding GAAP equivalent is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results. We have provided historical reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP metrics in tables at the end of this investor letter. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this investor letter, please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

This investor letter contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties.

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

To supplement our financial information presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), we consider certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted sales and marketing expense, adjusted research and development expense, adjusted general and administrative expense, Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted Gross Margin, Contribution Profit (Loss), Contribution Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow. We use these financial measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of our overall assessment of our performance, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and to communicate with our board of directors concerning our business and financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors about our business and financial performance, enhance their overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to metrics used by our management in their financial and operational decision making. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures to assist investors in seeing our business and financial performance through the eyes of management, and because we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing results of operations of our business over multiple periods with other companies in our industry.

We define adjusted cost of revenue as cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, excluding stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, allocated overhead, and inventory write-off related to restructuring. Allocated overhead is determined based on an allocation of shared costs, such as facilities (including rent and utilities) and information technology costs, among all departments based on employee headcount. We define adjusted sales and marketing expense as sales and marketing expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, and allocated overhead. We define adjusted research and development expense as research and development expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, and allocated overhead. We define adjusted general and administrative expense as general and administrative expenses excluding stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, certain legal, tax, and regulatory settlements, reserves, and expenses, transaction-related costs (primarily consists of acquisition, integration, and investment related costs), impairment expenses, and including allocated overhead from cost of revenue, sales and marketing, and research and development.

------

We define Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as gross profit (loss) plus (i) depreciation and amortization expense related to cost of revenue, (ii) stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense included in cost of revenue, (iii) allocated overhead included in cost of revenue, and (iv) inventory write-off related to restructuring. Gross profit (loss) is defined as revenue less (i) cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and (ii) depreciation and amortization related to cost of revenue. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss) as a percentage of revenue for the same period.

We define Contribution Profit (Loss) as our gross profit (loss) less sales and marketing expense plus (i) depreciation and amortization expense related to cost of revenue, (ii) stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense included in cost of revenue and sales and marketing expenses, (iii) allocated overhead included in cost of revenue and sales and marketing expenses, and (iv) inventory write-off related to restructuring. We define gross margin as gross profit (loss) as a percentage of revenue for the same period and we define Contribution Margin as Contribution Profit (Loss) as a percentage of revenue for the same period. Wolt Contribution Profit (Loss) is defined in the same manner, but relates only to Wolt financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA is a measure that we use to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage in our business. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), including redeemable non-controlling interests, adjusted to exclude (i) certain legal, tax, and regulatory settlements, reserves, and expenses, (ii) transaction-related costs (primarily consists of acquisition, integration, and investment related costs), (iii) impairment expenses, (iv) restructuring charges, (v) inventory write-off related to restructuring, (vi) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (vii) interest (income) expense, net, (viii) other (income) expense, net, (ix) stock-based compensation expense and certain payroll tax expense, and (x) depreciation and amortization expense. Wolt Adjusted EBITDA is defined in the same manner, but relates only to Wolt financial results.

We define Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software and website development costs.

We define Total Orders as all orders completed through our marketplaces and platform services businesses over the period of measurement.

We define Marketplace GOV as the total dollar value of orders completed on our marketplaces, including taxes, tips, and any applicable consumer fees, including membership fees related to DashPass and Wolt+. Marketplace orders include orders completed through Pickup and DoorDash for Work. Marketplace GOV does not include the dollar value of orders, taxes and tips, or fees charged to merchants, for orders fulfilled through Drive, Storefront, or Bbot.

Our definitions may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Further, these metrics have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations. Thus, our adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted sales and marketing expense, adjusted research and development expense, adjusted general and administrative expense, Adjusted Gross Profit (Loss), Adjusted Gross Margin, Contribution Profit (Loss), Contribution Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)We exclude certain costs and expenses from our calculation of adjusted general and administrative expense because management believes that these costs and expenses are not indicative of our core operating performance, do not reflect the underlying economics of our business, and are not necessary to operate our business. These excluded costs and expenses consist of (i) certain legal costs primarily related to worker classification matters, (ii) reserves for the collection of sales and indirect taxes that we do not expect to incur on a recurring basis, (iii) costs related to the settlement of an intellectual property matter, (iv) expenses related to supporting various policy matters, including those related to worker classification and price controls, and (v) donations as part of our relief efforts in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. We believe it is appropriate to exclude the foregoing matters from our calculation of adjusted general and administrative expense because (1) the timing and magnitude of such expenses are unpredictable and thus not part of management's budgeting or forecasting process, and (2) with respect to worker classification matters, management currently expects such expenses will not be material to our results of operations over the long term as a result of increasing legislative and regulatory certainty in this area, including as a result of Proposition 22 in California and similar legislation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)Consists of acquisition, integration, and investment related costs, primarily related to the Wolt acquisition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Consists of impairment expense related to an operating lease right-of-use asset associated with our former headquarters.
