Steven G. Mihaylo, Chief Executive Officer commented, "The results this quarter are very impressive, especially when you consider all of the economic headwinds we have been facing. I am particularly pleased that we have been able to increase total revenue 53% year-over-year to $8.8 million and continue to maintain profitability both on a Non-GAAP and Adjusted EBITDA basis. I am very favorably impressed with the Non-GAAP net income of $512,000 or $0.02 per basic and diluted common share and our Adjusted EBITDA of $626,000 for the quarter. We have also reduced our GAAP net loss during the quarter and I expect these positive trends to continue. While our results were very good, we never lose sight of our obligation to improve the business every day and work on improving shareholder value. We will work tirelessly to control expenses, I am undertaking a review of every discretionary expense we have, and fully expect the team to manage expenses deliberately and to watch every penny we spend."

Mihaylo added "We also continue to work on marketing and sales, I have been very pleased with the quality of partners and master agents we have added recently, and I expect those initiatives to accelerate our sales particularly on the telecom side of the business. I remain very optimistic on our future. We have built the business carefully and methodically and have done so without mortgaging our future with debt that is not sustainable, and in the long run it is what I am convinced will make us successful. I expect our growth to continue both organically and through potential accretive acquisitions we are carefully considering."

Doug Gaylor, President, and Chief Operating Officer stated " I want to join Steve in commending our team for the remarkable job they have done in coming together as a cohesive unit. The shared passion in serving our customer and developing the best products and services will be something that will continue to impress our customers, our employees and most importantly our shareholders. Our Management team is focused on these initiatives to continue to improve the business and grow our top and bottom lines. It is a very exciting time for Crexendo, and we are positioned well to continue executing our plans."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP") net income and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income to be an important indicator of overall business performance because it allows us to evaluate results without the effects of share-based compensation, acquisition related expenses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and amortization of intangibles. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income/(loss) before interest income, interest expense, other income and expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for acquisition related expenses, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and share-based compensation. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors' use of operating performance comparisons from period to period, as well as across companies.

In our August 9, 2022, earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we included Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income/(loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:

• EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
• they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur;
• they do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
• while share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and
• other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for management's analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC, we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
