 **Fourth Quarter 2022 Product Innovation Highlights:**

We innovate aligned with our guiding principles. VTEX key innovations deployed this quarter:

* Zero friction onboarding and collaboration:
 
 Cencosud, a conglomerate with a diverse product portfolio, has chosen VTEX to manage the operations of its 14 brands. The company has been operating with VTEX since 2016. By using VTEX fast delivery filters they have seen improvement
 in conversion rates, acceleration in sales, and increased customer satisfaction. VTEX's tailored solution is enhancing their categorization, search tools, and promotion and delivery modules to better serve their customers. 
 Carrefour, a French retail company, chose VTEX in 2020 to enhance their performance in Brazil, their second-largest market. With 817 stores in Brazil, Carrefour sought to improve their order management, marketplace, and omnichannel
 services with VTEX's scalability. Recently in 4Q22, Carrefour integrated their physical stores with VTEX's OMS capabilities, including personalized search, click & collect, improved delivery, and integrated POS system, leading to a
 better customer experience and increased efficiency. 
 Motorola used their global contract with VTEX to launch their online store in India. VTEX's localization was crucial for successful implementation due to compliance with local regulations. Easy integration of third parties and the
 helpful VTEX customer success team aided in enabling multiple 3PLs. Motorola has a highly customized homepage with fast checkout and easy navigation, which led to an increase in their conversion rate. 
 Auchan, one of the largest retailers globally with a strong presence in Europe, selected VTEX to revamp its online operations in Romania with new features to improve the customer experience. The new platform, running on VTEX, is more
 user-friendly and offers fresh product delivery, new delivery and pickup locations, and can be accessed from any device. VTEX is also improving Auchan's website loading speed and mobile compatibility. Future plans include additional
 customer features and user generated content. 

------

* Commerce on auto-pilot and co-pilot
 
 A leading global kitchen and laundry appliances company, through its global account, has continued to expand its partnership with VTEX. Our global contract signed by VTEX US branch was a crucial factor in successfully launching their
 high-end home appliance brand operations in Europe. Our customer is now utilizing a composable approach in EMEA, with VTEX's new customized checkout solution, which allows customers to have more flexibility in their checkout page by
 leveraging VTEX's APIs with all store framework components. Their high-end home appliance brand fully adopted the headless approach in the front-end of its new ecommerce website for Ireland. With that, they can now select the tools they
 need to create a tailored user experience and quickly build content-rich shopping experiences without starting from scratch. 
 VTEX has developed a detailed process of testing and identifying vulnerabilities through scans and penetration tests. With this new feature, our customers can learn and run security assessments on their own. 

* The development platform of choice for digital commerce:
 
 A partnership agreement was signed with ClearSale, a company specializing in digital anti-fraud solutions in various segments, for volumes processed in Brazil with the goal of expanding worldwide. ClearSale's plugin provides
 customers with confidence and trust, leading to high approval rates and avoiding false positives. 
 A global partnership with Nuvei has been formed to provide increased flexibility and customization for retailers as VTEX expands into Latin America and new markets in Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe. The partnership is
 already available for VTEX's customers worldwide and retailers and brands will benefit from Nuvei's advanced acceptance rate optimization, seamless onboarding, and a fully customized approach to boost their revenues.

 **Business Outlook**

Consumer purchasing omnichannel trends showed staying power following the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 and the reopening of physical stores that followed. As a consequence, integrating ecommerce to leverage existing physical stores asset base has become a crucial aspect for the business strategy of enterprise brands and retailers. Omnichannel has gone from being a desirable feature to a vital tool for engaging with consumers in a consistent and relevant manner.

Brands and retailers are now integrating physical, desktop, mobile, interactive, social, conversational commerce, and other channels into their omnichannel strategy. The increasing complexity of building a proper omnichannel strategy allows VTEX to position itself as the backbone of commerce, integrating all these channels into one unified ecosystem.

Additionally, the global macroeconomic environment has imposed challenges to retailers and ecommerce players with the increase in interest rates and labor costs impacting consumption and pressuring margins. As we enter 2023, the macroeconomic outlook remains uncertain and we believe VTEX can help brands and retailers navigate and overcome these circumstances.

Despite these challenges, our company has not seen a significant deterioration in our most relevant long-term performance metrics. However, due to the extended sales cycle resulting from the increased implementation time of the VTEX platform and longer ramp-up periods for new customers, we are reflecting that into our projections for this year. We are closely monitoring the current performance of our customers and sales funnel and taking necessary actions to ensure our business's continued growth and success.

In this context, we are currently targeting revenue for the first quarter of 2023 in the US$*41.0* million to US$*41.5* million range, implying a YoY growth of *19*% in USD and *19*% on an FX neutral basis in the middle of the range.

------

For the full year 2023, we expect FX neutral YoY revenue growth of *15*% to *19*%, implying a range of US$*183.0* million to US$*189.0* million, based on February average FX rates.

Despite navigating a volatile environment, both in terms of macro conditions and consumer behavior, we continue to focus on helping our customers digitally transform their commerce operations and outperform the market. We are satisfied with and excited about the expanding market opportunity in front of us and the resilience of our customer base. After expanding the platform significantly during the past few years, we are executing on our strategy of profitable growth. Therefore, we anticipate significant YoY expansion of our non-GAAP operating income margins in the first half of 2023, followed by incremental lighter improvements in the second half of the year.

The business outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond VTEX's control. See the cautionary note regarding ''Forward-Looking Statements'' below. Fluctuations in VTEX's operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment. There can not be an assurance that VTEX will achieve these results.

This announcement contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended. Statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature, including statements about the VTEX strategies and business plans, are forward-looking, and the words "anticipate," "believe," "continues," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "project," "target" and similar expressions and future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," "might," "can," "may," or similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.

VTEX may also make forward-looking statements in its periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers and directors. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on the VTEX's current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, many of which are beyond VTEX's control.

Further information regarding these and other risks is included in VTEX filings with the SEC.

As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statements in this announcement. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented as there is no guarantee that expected events, trends or results will actually occur.
