Use of Non-GAAP Measures In addition to the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") ﬁnancials, this presentation includes certain non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures, including non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and adjusted free cash ﬂow. This presentation also includes certain non-GAAP metrics, including annual recurring revenue, average revenue per account, net dollar retention rates, revenue growth rates and related presentation thereof with adjustments for constant currency. We use these non-GAAP 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 ﬁnancial performance. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors consistency and comparability with our past ﬁnancial performance and facilitate period-to-period comparisons of our operating results. We believe these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as they generally eliminate the effects of certain items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Investors, however, are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures as an analytical tool. The presentation of these non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, ﬁnancial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures we use may be different from non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. We compensate for these limitations by providing speciﬁc information regarding the GAAP items excluded from these non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures. Please see the appendix for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP ﬁnancial measures used in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP ﬁnancial measures.© 2026 F© 2025 Fr reshworks Inc.
