Management Commentary

"In the second quarter, we continued to drive strong, organic, topline growth while making great strides in our cost reduction plan as well," said Crexendo Chief Executive Officer Jeff Korn. "I am very pleased with total revenue increasing 43% year-over-year and our Non-GAAP net income of $1.1 million is a strong indication that our plan is working. Our diligent cost management efforts are translating to strong improvements in profitability, including a return to cash flow positivity in the quarter. We also recently finalized the terms of the sale of our property in Tempe, which effectively will remove almost all of our outstanding debt and enables us to build on our already-strong cash position with an additional $2 million added to our balance sheet."

"We have also continued to make great strides in our integration efforts. Over the last few months we completed a reorganization of reporting responsibilities to create cross utilization amongst all divisions, making us a more efficient and collaborative organization. We have also expedited the migration of customers to our best-in-class VIP™ platform, which will substantially reduce costs as we sunset our legacy platform and transition existing team resources to other parts of the business."

"In the second quarter we saw a record number of installs in our Telecommunication Services segment, fueled by significant partner and agent sales contributions. We also had a strong performance internationally, which bodes well for future growth in this key area of focus. Our master dealer channel is continuing to perform nicely as we're seeing strong contributions from our resellers creating more enterprise sales opportunities. Looking ahead, we will continue to judiciously invest in delivering innovative features to drive greater customer satisfaction as well as demand from the largely underpenetrated UCaaS market. I am very excited by our results, and I am confident that our strong performance will continue."

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, amortization of intangibles, and goodwill and long-lived asset impairment. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income/(loss) before interest expense, interest income and other expense/(income), goodwill and long-lived asset impairments, provision/(benefit) 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 10, 2023 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.
