Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA
We present Group adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP performance measure, to supplement our results presented in accordance with
Group Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to evaluate the Company’s core operating performance on a comparable basis and to make strategic decisions. The Company believes Group Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors for the same reasons as well as in evaluating the Company’s operating performance against competitors, which commonly disclose similar performance measures. However, the Company’s calculation of Group Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled performance measures of other companies. Group Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any US GAAP financial measure.
We do not provide a reconciliation of Group adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net income/(loss) on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. These items are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events. The impact of these items could be significant to our projections.
Preliminary Estimates
This press release includes our preliminary estimate of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2024 for which consolidated financial statements are not available. Our actual cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash results will be subject to the completion of our quarter-end and year-end closing process, which includes review by management and our board of directors, including our audit committee. While carrying out such procedures, we may identify items that require us to make adjustments to the preliminary estimate set forth in this press release. In addition, other developments may arise between the date of this press release and the dates that we announce fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 results, which may cause our actual results to be different than the preliminary estimate set forth in this press release. There can be no assurance that our final results will not differ from this estimate, which are forward-looking and based only on currently available information as of the date hereof. See the section titled “Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information regarding factors that could result in differences between the preliminary estimate set forth above and the actual financial results we will report. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on the preliminary estimate set forth in this press release nor should you view this preliminary estimate as a substitute for our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our independent registered public accounting firm, WithumSmith+Brown, PC, has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures on this preliminary financial data, and accordingly, does not express an opinion or other form of assurance with respect to this preliminary financial data.
