Appendix:Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresThis presentation includes the following financial measures defined as "Non-GAAP financial measures" by the SEC:Adjusted gross profit (formerly "net revenue"), adjusted gross profit margin (formerly "net revenue margin"), EBITDA,Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP fully diluted EPS and Free cash flow. Adjusted gross profit is calculated as revenue lesstransportation costs (excludes internal use software depreciation). Adjusted gross profit margin is calculated as adjustedgross profit (as previously defined) divided by revenue. EBITDA is defined as net income excluding the effects ofdepreciation, amortization, cash and non-cash interest expense and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA(as previously defined) excluding changes in contingent consideration and stock compensation expense. Non-GAAP fullydiluted EPS is defined as fully diluted EPS excluding changes in contingent consideration, amortization, non-cash interestexpense, stock compensation expense and the tax effect of these adjustments. Free cash flow is defined as net cashprovided by operating activities reduced by capital expenditures. A reconciliation of Adjusted gross profit, EBITDA,Adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP fully diluted EPS to the most comparable GAAP measure is included on the next slide. Areconciliation of Free cash flow to the most comparable GAAP measure is included on Slide 8. We believe such measuresprovide useful information to investors because they provide information about the financial performance of the Company'songoing business.Adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP fully diluted EPS and Free cashflow are used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and evaluation of overall operatingperformance. These measures may be different from similar measures used by other companies.
