Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP gross margin are useful measures of operating performance because they exclude items that Q2 does not consider indicative of its core performance. In the case of adjusted EBITDA, Q2 adjusts net loss for such things as interest, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, and taxes. In the case of non-GAAP gross margin, Q2 adjusts gross margin for stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired technology. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net loss and GAAP gross margin, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to the closest GAAP measures of these non-GAAP measures is contained in tabular form on the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Q2’s management uses adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP gross margin as measures of operating performance; to prepare Q2’s annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of Q2’s business; to evaluate the effectiveness of Q2’s business strategies; to provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance; to facilitate a comparison of Q2’s results with those of other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results; and in communication with our board of directors concerning Q2’s financial performance.

Forward-looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements about Q2’s Centrix acquisition and integration, sales pipeline and quarterly and annual financial guidance. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based upon Q2’s and Centrix’s historical performance and its current plans, estimates and expectations and are not a representation that such plans, estimates or expectations will be achieved. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described herein include risks related to: (a) the risk that Q2 will face increased competition in its existing markets and as it enters new sections of the market with Tier 1 customers and new products and services; (b) the risk that the market for Q2’s solutions does not grow as anticipated; (c) the risk that Q2’s increased focus on selling to larger Tier 1 customers may result in greater uncertainty and variability in Q2’s business and sales results; (d) the challenges and costs associated with selling, implementing and supporting Q2’s solutions, particularly for larger customers with more complex requirements and longer implementation processes; (e) errors, interruptions or delays in Q2’s service or Web hosting; (f) risks associated with data breaches and breaches of security measures within Q2’s products, systems and infrastructure; (g) technological and regulatory developments; (h) the impact that a slowdown in the economy, financial markets, and credit markets has on Q2’s business sales cycles, prospects and customers’ spending decisions and timing of implementation decisions, particularly in regions where a significant number of Q2’s customers are concentrated; (i) the difficulties and risks associated with developing and selling complex new solutions and enhancements with the technical and regulatory specifications and functionality desired by customers and governmental authorities; (j) the difficulties and costs Q2 may encounter with complex implementations of its solutions and the resulting impact on the timing of its revenue from any delayed implementations; (k) the risk that Q2 will not be able to maintain historical contract terms such as pricing and duration; (l) the risks associated with managing growth and the challenges associated with improving operations and hiring, retaining and motivating employees to support such growth; (m) the risk that modifications or negotiations of contractual arrangements will be necessary during Q2’s implementations of its solutions or the general risks associated with the complexity of Q2’s customer arrangements; (n) the risks associated with integrating acquired companies and successfully selling and maintaining their solutions; and (o) litigation related to intellectual property and other matters and any related claims, negotiations and settlements.
