Any of these factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from our anticipated results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the selected financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), we monitor other non-GAAP financial measures that we use to manage our business, to make planning decisions, to allocate resources and to use as performance measures in our executive compensation plan. These key financial measures provide an additional view of our operational performance over the long term and provide information that we use to maintain and grow our business.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is used to enhance the understanding of certain aspects of our financial performance. It is not meant to be considered in isolation from, superior to, or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Non-GAAP Measure
Definition
How We Use The Measure
Adjusted EBITDA
• Net income, excluding the effects of:
– income tax provision,
– interest expense, bank fees and other,
– depreciation,
– amortization of intangible assets,
– stock based compensation expense,
– amortization of cloud computing
arrangements, and
– transaction and integration costs.
• Provides period-to-period comparisons on a
consistent basis and an understanding as to
how our management evaluates the
effectiveness of our business strategies by
excluding certain non-recurring costs, which
include transaction and integration costs, as
well as certain non-cash charges such as
depreciation and amortization, and stock-
based compensation and certain impairment
charges recognized based on the estimated
fair values. We believe these charges are
either not directly resulting from our core
operations or not indicative of our ongoing
operations.
• Enhances comparisons to prior periods
and, accordingly, facilitates the development
of future projections and earnings growth
prospects.
• Provides a measure, among others, used
in the determination of incentive compensation
for management.
• We also sometimes refer to Adjusted EBITDA
margin, which is the ratio of Adjusted EBITDA

Artificial intelligence and machine learning personalize teachings for individual learners, from beginners to advanced, in languages such as English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Italian, Arabic, Korean, and others. Flexibility and affordability are key, with e-learning accessible via smartphones, computers, tablets, and wearable gadgets like HoloLens, fitness trackers, and smartwatches.

The duration of an online language program is a significant consideration for potential learners, second only to pricing. The time required to learn a language varies among individuals. However, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language learning has been shown to reduce the time compared to traditional methods. For instance, Duolingo utilizes AI-powered chatbots for interactive language learning. These bots personalize the learning experience, saving time, money, and effort for students. AI’s ability to tailor digital language courses to each learner makes online language learning more efficient and effective.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance, including guidance, expectations with respect to the CFO transition described above, and our business, including pipeline and industry trends. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “can have,” “likely,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that we expected, including: (i) the adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, and prospects from various macroeconomic factors, including instability in geopolitical or market conditions; (ii) our failure to innovate or make the right investment decisions; (iii) our ability to provide digital or cross-platform analytics; (iv) our failure to maintain or achieve industry accreditation standards; (v) our dependence on integrations with advertising platforms, demand side providers (“DSPs”) and proprietary platforms that we do not control; (vi) our ability to compete successfully with our current or future competitors in an intensely competitive market, including with respect to the Oracle opportunity; (viii) our dependence on senior management and the impact of the CFO transition described above; and (ix) other factors disclosed in our filings with the SEC. Given these factors, as well as other variables that may affect our operating results, you should not rely on forward-looking statements, assume that past financial performance will be a reliable indicator of future performance, or use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.
We derive many of our forward-looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based on many detailed assumptions. While we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. The forward-looking statements included in this press release are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward- looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law.
