Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release contains certain financial information that is not presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including adjusted operating expense and adjusted EBITDA. The non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information to Kestra's financial measures presented in this press release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted operating expense is calculated as operating expenses, as adjusted to exclude share-based compensation expense and non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss), as adjusted to exclude other income/expense (including interest), income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, and non-recurring expenses. Both metrics are presented because management believes they will allow investors to view Kestra's performance in a manner similar to the method used by management to evaluate Kestra's performance for both strategic and annual operating planning. Management believes that in order to properly understand short-term and long-term financial trends, it is helpful for investors to understand the impact of the items excluded from the calculation of adjusted operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA, in addition to considering Kestra's GAAP financial measures. The excluded items vary in frequency and/or impact on our results of operations and management believes that the excluded items are not reflective of our ongoing core business operations and financial condition. Excluding such items allows investors and analysts to compare our operating performance to other companies in our industry and to compare our period-over-period results. The non-GAAP financial measures used by Kestra may not be the same or calculated in the same manner as those used and calculated by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Kestra's financial results prepared and reported in accordance with GAAP. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. A reconciliation of adjusted operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA reported in this press release to the most comparable respective GAAP measure for the respective periods appears in the tables captioned "Reconciliation of GAAP Operating Expenses to Adjusted Operating Expenses" and "Reconciliation of GAAP Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA" later in this release. Within the accompanying financial tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers.
