Guidance

For Q4 2026, we expect revenue to be in the range of $1,425 million to $1,475 million9, representing 8% - 12% growth year over year, which assumes a modest headwind from foreign exchange based on current spot rates. We expect Q4 2026 Adjusted EBITDA* to be in the range of $538 million to $588 million.9

We intend to provide further details on our outlook during the conference call.

_____________

* We have not provided the forward-looking GAAP equivalent for forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA or a GAAP reconciliation as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP guidance metrics to their corresponding GAAP equivalents is not available without unreasonable effort. However, it is important to note that material changes to reconciling items could have a significant effect on future GAAP results and, as such, we also believe that any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors.
