Forward-looking statements represent PagerDuty's management's beliefs and assumptions only as of the date such statements are made. PagerDuty does not undertake, and expressly disclaims any duty, to update any statements made in this presentation to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this presentation or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. This presentation also includes references to non-GAAP operating margin, which we define as GAAP operating margin excluding stock-based compensation expense, employer taxes related to employee stock transactions, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related expenses, and restructur ing costs. The Company believes that these expenses are not necessar ily reflective of operational performance during a period, and that consideration of this measure can assist in the comparison of operational per formance in different periods which may or may not include such expenses. This non-GAAP financial measure is in addition to, and not a substitu te for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of th is non-GAAP financial measure versus its nearest GAAP equivalent. For example, other companies may calculate this non-GAAP financial measure differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of this non- GAAP financial measure as a tool for compar ison. For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, please see the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 17, 2025. The last day of the Company's fiscal year is January 31. The Company's fiscal quarters end on April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31. References to a fiscal year (FY) refer to the fiscal year ended January 31 of such year. For example, fiscal 2026 or FY26 refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026.
