Management Commentary

"Crexendo delivered exceptionally strong financial results for the third quarter of 2024, reflecting our commitment to providing premier cloud communication software and services and continuing our organic growth trajectory. Consolidated revenue grew 13% year-over-year, driven by a remarkable 25% growth in our software division.Our year-to-date numbers are equally as strong and are well ahead of internal and external expectations as we continue to execute our game plan, and I am excited with the momentum we are seeing. These results underscore the strength of our scalable software platforms and the dedication of our team to meet the rising demand for our cloud communication solutions." Said Jeff Korn, CEO and Chairman.

Korn continued, "As we move forward, we continue reinvesting in Crexendo to drive future growth and efficiency. We've increased our headcount in engineering, service, and support and have made substantial investments into Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), which will provide a significant competitive advantage, especially in Europe, where our growth remains very robust. We are beginning the process of migrating our legacy cloud customers to OCI. Once complete, this transition will yield substantial cost savings and allow us to redeploy resources effectively rather than increasing headcount. Additionally, we are in the process of implementing an advanced accounting system to streamline our financial closings and provide real-time insights, empowering us to make agile, data-driven business decisions."

Korn added, "We recently concluded our most successful User Group Meeting (UGM), where the excitement was palpable. Our second codefest showcased impressive applications, particularly those leveraging AI, which our licensees can develop using our scalable, open APIs. Many of these applications will soon be available to all our licensees through our platform, enhancing our offerings and opening additional revenue-sharing opportunities. This is a very exciting time, with unprecedented interest in our software platform and strong demand for our phone services. I remain highly optimistic about our future growth and anticipate double-digit growth continuing through the fourth quarter and into 2025."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP") net income, EBITDA, 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), the gain/(loss) on the sale of property and equipment, 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 November 6, 2024 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.
