Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated Net income, excluding net interest and other income (expense), income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude (i) net gains and losses related to our warrant liabilities prior to the warrant exchange transaction that closed in July 2024 (the “Warrant Exchange”); (ii) share-based compensation expense; and when applicable, (iii) restructuring, impairment and related charges; (iv) gains, losses and impairments related to divestitures; and (v) certain other unusual items.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we consider it to be an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis, as it removes the impact of items not directly resulting from our core operations.

By providing this non-GAAP financial measure, together with a reconciliation to Net income, which is the most comparable GAAP measure, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business and our results of operations, as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives. However, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to, or a substitute for Net income or other financial statement data presented in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as indicators of financial performance. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry, which could reduce the usefulness of this non-GAAP financial measure when comparing our performance to that of other companies.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is Net income:

2     Principally includes interest income, net investment income related to our investment portfolio, and interest expense, as well as changes in the value of the TRA liability, which totaled $29.2 million and $32.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $1.3 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

3     Income tax expense (benefit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 includes a $38.1 million benefit related to the release of a portion of the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets.

4     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, other unusual items includes certain legal settlement expenses, professional fees associated with the THG Unit Exchange and related secondary offering, and certain material severance expenses. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, other unusual items includes professional fees associated with the Warrant Exchange.

2     Principally includes interest income, net investment income related to our investment portfolio, and interest expense, as well as changes in the value of the TRA liability ($32.3 million of expense incurred through the third quarter of 2025).

3     Income tax expense (benefit) includes $38.1 million benefit related to the release of a portion of the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. 

Adjusted EPS

We define Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“Adjusted EPS”) as consolidated Net income, excluding net gains and losses related to our warrant liabilities prior to the Warrant Exchange, divided by our outstanding and total potentially dilutive securities, which includes (i) the weighted average issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock; (ii) all issued and outstanding non-controlling interest units of THG; (iii) all issued and outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis; and (iv) all unissued share-based compensation awards.

The most directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EPS is basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”), which is calculated as Net income available to Class A Common Stockholders divided by the weighted average number of Class A Common Stock shares outstanding during the period.

We present Adjusted EPS because we consider it to be an important supplemental measure of our operating performance and believe it is used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating the consolidated performance of other companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted EPS, which compares our consolidated Net income with our weighted average number of Class A Common Stock shares outstanding and potentially dilutive shares, provides useful information to investors regarding our performance on a consolidated and diluted basis.

Management uses Adjusted EPS (i) as a measure of the operating performance of our business on a consolidated and diluted basis; (ii) to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of our operational strategies; and (iii) as a preferred predictor of core operating performance, comparisons to prior periods and competitive positioning.

We caution investors that Adjusted EPS is not a recognized measure under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, including Basic EPS, and that Adjusted EPS, as we define it, may be defined or calculated differently by other companies. In addition, Adjusted EPS has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as a measure of profit or loss per share.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is Basic EPS:
