Mandalay Digital Group, Inc. Craig - Hallum Alpha Select Conference September 18, 2014

Safe Harbor Statements. Statements in this presentation concerning future results from operations, financial position, economic conditions, product releases and any other statement that may be construed as a prediction of future performance or events, including without limitation statements regarding future profitability and expected 2015 and 2016 revenues , 2015 margins, carrier (including Tier 1 carrier) relationships and order volume, future operating expenses and product deployment and ramp up are “forward - looking statements” (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 related to these forward looking statements. These factors include the inherent challenges in converting discussions with carriers into contractual relationships and deploying our key products within large enterprises such as major carriers in a timely manner, product acceptance of new products in a competitive marketplace, the potential for unforeseen or underestimated cash requirements or liabilities, the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations on our reported GAAP financial statements, the Company’s ability as a smaller company to manage international operations, its ability given the Company’s limited resources to identify and consummate acquisitions, varying and often unpredictable levels of orders, the challenges inherent in technology development necessary to maintain the Company’s competitive advantage such as adherence to release schedules and the costs and time required for finalization and gaining market acceptance of new products, changes in economic conditions and market demand, rapid and complex changes occurring in the mobile marketplace, pricing and other activities by competitors, and other risks including those described from time to time in Mandalay Digital Group's filings on Forms 10 - K and 10 - Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), press releases and other communications. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward - looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Use of Non - GAAP Financial Measures. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, foreign exchange gains (losses), financing and related expenses, debt discount and debt settlement expense, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt, acquisition and integration costs, income taxes, asset impairment charges, depreciation and amortization, stock - based compensation expense, change in fair value of derivatives, and accruals for discretionary bonuses. Since Adjusted EBITDA is a non - GAAP measure that does not have a standardized meaning, it may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Readers are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as an indicator of performance, which is the most comparable measure under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management as an internal measure of profitability. We have included Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that this measure is used by certain investors to assess our financial performance before non - cash charges and certain costs that we do not believe are reflective of our underlying business. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to U.S. GAAP net income is expected to be included in the press release announcing the results of our fiscal quarters (including the current quarter) and full financial year, however such reconciliation to future net income is not currently available without unreasonable effort. The information that is unavailable is primarily related to tax credits or tax expense and expenses related to stock - based compensation; it is probable that when such amounts are available they will result in a GAAP net loss for our third fiscal quarter notwithstanding our expected Adjusted EBITDA results.
