Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has disclosed the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: constant currency revenue, non-GAAP net income per share (basic and diluted), non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP weighted average shares used to compute non-GAAP net income per share (basic and diluted).

Our constant currency revenue disclosures estimate the impact of changes in foreign currency rates on the translation of the Company’s current period revenue as compared to the applicable comparable period in the prior year. This impact is derived by taking the current local currency revenue and translating it into U.S. Dollars based upon the foreign currency exchange rates used to translate the local currency revenue for the applicable comparable period in the prior year, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. It does not include any other effect of changes in foreign currency rates on the Company’s results or business.

Non-GAAP net income per share (basic and diluted) and its components, non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP weighted average shares used to compute non-GAAP net income per share (basic and diluted), (1) exclude the effect of allocating net income (loss) between common stock and participating convertible preferred stock under the two-class method to allocate earnings, and (2) reflect the conversion of our outstanding convertible preferred stock upon the closing of our IPO as if such conversion occurred on a one-for-one basis as of the beginning of the applicable period(s).

Full reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is set forth in the tables below.

Our management believes the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this press release are useful to investors in assessing the operating performance of our business and provide meaningful comparisons to prior periods and thus a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. Specifically, we consider the change in constant currency revenue as a useful metric as it provides an alternative framework for assessing how our underlying business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. We consider non-GAAP net income per share (basic and diluted), and its components, as useful metrics as they provide an alternative framework for assessing our profitability as compared to periods prior to our IPO.

The non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to GAAP measures.
