Disclaimer Forward - Looking Statements This presentation includes "forward - looking statements" within the meaning of U . S . federal securities laws . You can identify forward - looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "believe," "estimate," "project," "target," "predict," "intend," "future," "goals," "potential,” "objective," "would" and other similar expressions . Forward - looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond OrthoPediatrics’ control . Important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward - looking statements, including, among others, the risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under "Risk Factors" in OrthoPediatrics’ Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC on March 7 , 2019 . Forward - looking statements speak only as of the date they are made . OrthoPediatrics assumes no obligation to update forward - looking statements to reflect actual results, subsequent events, or circumstances or other changes affecting such statements except to the extent required by applicable securities laws . Use of Non - GAAP Financial Measures This presentation includes the non - GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA, which differs from financial measures calculated in accordance with U . S . generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) . Adjusted EBITDA in this presentation represents net loss, plus interest expense (income), net plus other expense (income), depreciation and amortization, stock - based compensation expense, accelerated vesting of restricted stock upon our IPO, public company costs and initial public offering costs . Adjusted EBITDA is presented because the Company believes it is a useful indicator of its operating performance . Management uses the measure as a measure of the Company’s operating performance and for planning purposes, including financial projections . The Company believes this measure is useful to investors as supplemental information because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in its industry . The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to its management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period . Adjusted EBITDA is a non - GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to, or superior to, net income or loss as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and it should not be construed to imply that the Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or non - recurring items . In addition, the measure is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as debt service requirements, capital expenditures and other cash costs that may recur in the future . Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and other potential cash requirements . In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future the Company may incur expenses that are the same or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation . The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that its future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments . Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on the Company’s GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA on a supplemental basis . The Company’s definition of this measure is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation . 2
