CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (continued from prior slide) (38) the wide variety of extensive and evolving government laws and regulations to which our business is subject, and the potential material adverse effect of any failure to comply with such laws and regulations; (39) the potential impact on our reputation and ability to do business resulting from improper conduct of our employees, agents or business partners; (40) failure to comply with federal, state and foreign laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, or the expansion of current or enactment of new laws or regulations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, and the resulting adverse effect on our business and financial condition; (41) changes in tax laws or regulations and the resulting increase in tax uncertainty and adverse effect on our results of operations and effective tax rate; (42) failure to adequately protect our intellectual property rights; (43) potential violations of third-party proprietary rights by our technology; (44) failure to obtain necessary additional funding; (45) the fact that AE Industrial Partners and its affiliates have significant influence over us, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions; (46) the fact that provisions in our Certificate of Designation with respect to our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may delay or prevent our acquisition by a third party, which could also reduce the market price of our capital stock; (47) the fact that our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock has rights, preferences and privileges that are not held by, and are preferential to, the rights of holders of our other outstanding capital stock; (48) the possibility of sales of a substantial amount of our common stock by our current stockholders; (49) the inability to remain in compliance with the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange; (50) the issuance of additional common stock or other equity securities and the resulting dilution of our shareholders' ownership interests; (51) volatility in the trading price of our common stock; (52) our existing material weaknesses and the identification of material weaknesses of other deficiencies or failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting and (53) other risks and uncertainties described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and those indicated from time to time in other documents filed or to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Redwire. The forward-looking statements contained in this Presentation are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. If underlying assumptions to forward-looking statements prove inaccurate, or if known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. The forward-looking statements contained in this Presentation are made as of the date of this Presentation, and Redwire disclaims any intention or obligation, other than imposed by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Persons reading this Presentation are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION This Presentation contains financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). These financial measures include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin and Free Cash Flow. Non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. We encourage investors and stockholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, impairment expense, transaction expenses, acquisition integration costs, acquisition earnout costs, purchase accounting fair value adjustment related to deferred revenue and inventory, severance costs, capital market and advisory fees, disposal of long-lived assets, litigation-related expenses, equity-based compensation, committed equity facility transaction costs, debt financing costs and extinguishment losses, gains on sale of joint ventures, net of costs incurred, and warrant liability change in fair value adjustment. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as revenues less cost of sales as computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding adjustments resulting from the application of purchase accounting included in cost of sales and Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as Adjusted Gross Profit as a percentage of revenue. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors meaningful insight into results from ongoing operations as the calculation of these measures excludes the impact of certain non-recurring charges. Management believes that by using Adjusted Gross Margin in conjunction with GAAP Gross Margin, investors will get a more complete view of what management considers to be the Company's core operating performance and allow for comparison of this measure when compared to those of prior periods. Free Cash Flow is computed as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. We use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions, including those relating to operating expenses and the allocation of internal resources. We use Free Cash Flow as an indicator of liquidity to evaluate our period-over-period operating cash generation that will be used to service our debt, and can be used to invest in future growth through new business development activities and/or acquisitions, among other uses. Free Cash Flow does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance, and it should not be inferred that the entire amount of Free Cash Flow is available for discretionary expenditures, since we have mandatory debt service requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures that are not deducted from this measure. KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Management uses Key Performance Indicators ("KPIs") to assess the financial performance of the Company, monitor relevant trends and support financial, operational and strategic decision-making. Management frequently monitors and evaluates KPIs against internal targets, core business objectives as well as industry peers and may, on occasion, change the mix or calculation of KPIs to better align with the business, its operating environment, standard industry metrics or other considerations. If the Company changes the method by which it calculates or presents a KPI, prior period disclosures are recast to conform to current presentation.
