Exhibit 99.1

EXA INVESTOR PRESENTATION
June 2017

Safe Harbor Statement Today’s presentation includes forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the Safe Harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our financial expectations, demand for our solutions and growth in our markets, are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by our forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2017, as filed with the SEC on March 22, 2017. Forward-looking information in this presentation represents our outlook as of today, and we do not undertake any obligation to update these forward-looking statements. During today’s presentation we may refer to our Adjusted EBITDA. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that has been adjusted for certain non-cash and other items, and that is not computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is our net income (loss). A reconciliation of our historical Adjusted EBITDA to our net income (loss) is included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC. © Exa Corporation—Public 2 2 © Exa Corporation. All rights reserved.

Recurring License Revenue Growth
(constant currency)
Note: Revenue on a constant currency basis is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as GAAP revenue, adjusted to reverse the impact of changes in the average exchange rates of currencies in which our international operations generate revenue and incur.

Margin Leverage, Focused Execution
Note: Please see Appendix for detailed definition and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the comparable GAAP financial measure of net income (loss). We define EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, other income (expense), foreign exchange gain (loss) and provision for income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense.

Note: To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are presented on a GAAP basis, we disclose Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure that excludes certain amounts. This non-GAAP measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The GAAP measure most comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is GAAP net income (loss). A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the corresponding GAAP measure is included above.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, other (income) expense, foreign exchange loss (gain) and provision (benefit) for income taxes. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, excluding non-cash share-based compensation expense.
