The number of active
customers represents the total number of individual customers who
have purchased at least once directly from our sites during the
preceding twelve-month period. The change in active customers in a
reported period captures both the inflow of new customers as well
as the outflow of existing customers who have not made a purchase
in the last twelve months. We view the number of active customers
as a key indicator of our growth.
|
(2)
|
LTM net revenue per
active customer represents our total net revenue in the last twelve
months divided by our total number of active customers for the same
preceding twelve-month period. We view LTM net revenue per active
customer as a key indicator of our customers' purchasing patterns,
including their initial and repeat purchase behavior.
|
(3)
|
Orders delivered
represent the total orders delivered in any period, inclusive of
orders that may eventually be returned. As we ship a large volume
of packages through multiple carriers, actual delivery dates may
not always be available, and as such we estimate delivery dates
based on historical data. We recognize net revenue when an order is
delivered, and therefore orders delivered, together with average
order value, is an indicator of the net revenue we expect to
recognize in a given period. We view orders delivered as a key
indicator of our growth.
|
(4)
|
We define average order
value as total net revenue in a given period divided by the orders
delivered in that period. We view average order value as a key
indicator of the mix of products on our sites, the mix of offers
and promotions and the purchasing behavior of our
customers.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP"), this earnings release and the accompanying
tables and the related earnings conference call contain certain
non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted
EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Diluted Earnings or Loss
per Share and Net Revenue Constant Currency Growth. We use these
non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial
results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement
to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational
performance. We have provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measure in this earnings release.
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss before
depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation and
related taxes, interest income or expense, net, other income or
expense, net, provision or benefit for income taxes, net,
non-recurring items and other items not indicative of our ongoing
operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by
dividing Adjusted EBITDA by Net Revenue. We disclose Adjusted
EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and board
of directors to evaluate our operating performance, generate future
operating plans and make strategic decisions regarding the
allocation of capital. In particular, we believe the exclusion of
certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA facilitates
operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis as
these costs may vary independent of business performance. For
instance, we exclude the impact of equity-based compensation and
related taxes as we do not consider this item to be indicative of
our core operating performance. Investors should, however,
understand that equity-based compensation and related taxes will be
a significant recurring expense in our business and an important
part of the compensation provided to our employees. Accordingly, we
believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to
investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating
results in the same manner as our management and board of
directors.
We calculate Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by or used in
operating activities less net cash used to purchase property and
equipment and site and software development costs (collectively,
"Capital Expenditures"). We disclose Free Cash Flow because it is
an important indicator of our business performance as it measures
the amount of cash we generate. Accordingly, we believe that Free
Cash Flow provides useful information to investors and others in
understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same
manner as our management.
We calculate Adjusted Diluted Earnings or Loss per Share as net
income or loss plus equity-based compensation and related taxes,
provision or benefit for income taxes, net, non-recurring items,
other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance,
and, if dilutive, interest expense associated with convertible debt
instruments under the if-converted method divided by the
weighted-average number of shares of common stock used in the
computation of diluted earnings or loss per share. Accordingly, we
believe that these adjustments to our adjusted diluted net income
or loss before calculating per share amounts for all periods
presented provide a more meaningful comparison between our
operating results from period to period.
We calculate Net Revenue Constant Currency Growth by translating
the current period local currency net revenue by the currency
exchange rates used to translate the financial statements in the
comparable prior-year period. We disclose Net Revenue Constant
Currency Growth because it is an important indicator of our
operating results. Accordingly, we believe that Net Revenue
Constant Currency Growth provides useful information to investors
and others in understanding and evaluating trends in our operating
results in the same manner as our management.
We calculate forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures based
on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be
included in forward-looking GAAP financial measures. We
do not attempt to provide a reconciliation of
forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to forward
looking GAAP financial measures because forecasting the timing or
amount of items that have not yet occurred and are out of our
control is inherently uncertain and unavailable without
unreasonable efforts. Further, we believe that such reconciliations
would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be
confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact
on GAAP measures of financial performance.
The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical
tools. We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should consider
such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a
substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with
GAAP. Investors should also note that the non-GAAP financial
measures we use may not be the same non-GAAP financial measures and
may not be calculated in the same manner as that of other
companies, including other companies in our industry.
The following table reflects the reconciliation of net income or
loss to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for each of the
periods indicated:

During the year ended
December 31, 2024, we recorded net charges of
$37 million, inclusive of $34 million associated with
