Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements that have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), Vicarious
Surgical provides additional financial metrics that are not
prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The non-GAAP
financial measures included in this press release are Adjusted Net
Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”, and together
with Adjusted Net Loss, “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”). The Company
presents Non-GAAP Financial Measures in order to assist readers of
its consolidated financial statements in understanding the core
operating results that its management uses to evaluate the business
and for financial planning purposes. Vicarious Surgical’s Non-GAAP
financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use
in comparing its financial performance over multiple periods.
Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EPS are key performance measures
that Vicarious Surgical’s management uses to assess its operating
performance. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures facilitate internal
comparisons of Vicarious Surgical’s operating performance on a more
consistent basis. Vicarious Surgical uses these performance
measures for business planning purposes and forecasting. Vicarious
Surgical believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures enhance an
investor’s understanding of Vicarious Surgical’s financial
performance as it is useful in assessing its operating performance
from period-to-period by excluding certain items that Vicarious
Surgical believes are not representative of its core business.
The Non-GAAP Financials Measures may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not
calculate this measure in the same manner. Adjusted Net Loss and
Adjusted EPS are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and
should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to,
measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. When evaluating
Vicarious Surgical’s performance, you should consider the Non-GAAP
Financial Measures alongside other financial performance measures
prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, including net loss.
The Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not replace the presentation
of Vicarious Surgical’s U.S. GAAP financial results and should only
be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, Vicarious
Surgical’s financial results presented in accordance with U.S.
GAAP. In this press release, Vicarious Surgical has provided a
reconciliation of Adjusted Net Loss to net loss, the most directly
comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, and the calculation for
Adjusted EPS.
