First Quarter 2026 Results Webinar Atomera will host a live video webinar today to discuss its financial results and recent progress.Date: Tuesday, May 5, 2026 Time: 2:00 p.m. PT ( 5:00 p.m. ET )Webcast: Accessible at https://ir.atomera.com Note about Non­-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to the unaudited results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in this press release, Atomera presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and eliminating the impacts of interest, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Our definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the definitions of similarly-titled measures used by other companies. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is used as part of the Company's internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A table reconciling this measure to the comparable GAAP measure is available in the accompanying financial tables below.
