Challenges Ahead

- Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the relevant forward-looking GAAP measures are not being provided due to insufficient data to accurately estimate variables and adjustments.
- The Company cannot reconcile projected Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income without unreasonable effort.
- Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time.
- Actual results may differ materially from expected results due to important factors disclosed in SEC filings.
