Adjusted EBITDA -Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as Net (loss) income adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; executive chairman long-term performance award; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring and other one-time costs; acquisition related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses; income tax expense; and other income, net, which consists primarily of interest income from our short-term investments and cash deposits, impairment of financial instruments, and realized foreign currency gains and losses. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management and our Board of Directors to evaluate and compare our core operating results, including our operating efficiencies, from period to period. Additionally, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an input into our calculation of our annual employee bonus plans and performance-based restricted stock units. See the section below titled “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for a discussion of the use of non-GAAP measures, a change in presentation, and a reconciliation of Net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA.

Effective in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, we revised our accounting policy for estimating and recognizing network incentives. We now estimate and recognize network incentives based on the cumulative incentive rate we expect to earn over the annual measurement period. We estimate the cumulative incentive rates based on our forecasts for the annual measurement periods, which incorporates both historical experience and our expectations of future events, in addition to other qualitative considerations. The estimated cumulative incentive rates are applied to the volume and/or number of transactions processed during the reporting period to calculate the quarterly network incentives recognized. As a result of this policy revision, the Card Network incentives recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2025 were $6.8 million higher compared to the amount that would have been recognized under the previous policy.

In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R. 1, the “Tax Act”) was signed into law, reinstating certain provisions from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation under Section 168(k) and immediate expensing of U.S.-based research costs under Section 174. We are currently evaluating the impact of these tax law changes on our financial condition and results of operations. Based on our preliminary assessment, we do not expect the Tax Act to have a material impact on our overall tax expense or effective tax rate for the year ending December 31, 2025.
