Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation includes forward-looking statements, as defined by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Management's projections and expectations are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual performance to differ materially from that predicted or implied.
These statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the company does not intend to update or
otherwise revise the forward-looking information to reflect actual results of operations, changes in
financial condition, changes in estimates, expectations or assumptions, changes in general economic or
industry conditions or other circumstances arising and/or existing since the preparation of this
presentation or to reflect the occurrence of any unanticipated events. The forward-looking statements in
this presentation do not include the potential impact of any acquisitions or divestitures that may be
announced and/or completed after the date hereof. Information about the factors that could affect future
performance can be found in our recent SEC filings, available on our website at http://ir.higherone.com/.
This presentation includes certain metrics presented on a non-GAAP basis, including non-GAAP adjusted
EBITDA, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP adjusted net income, non-GAAP adjusted diluted
EPS, and non-GAAP Free Cash Flow. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, which exclude
amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, and certain non-recurring or non-cash impacts to
our results, all net of taxes, provide useful information regarding normalized trends relating to the
company's financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to
their closest comparable GAAP measure are included in the appendix of this presentation.
