Accolade, Inc. ("Accolade") has initiated strategic steps to drive increased synergies across its business, facilitate a superior healthcare experience for its customers and members, and accelerate the company's path to profitability. Along with these strategic steps, Accolade is providing the following financial guidance:

? revenue between $97 million and $101 million, and Adjusted EBITDA between $(1)

million and $3 million;

? Reiterates revenue guidance for the fiscal year ending February 29, 2024 of

approximately $410 million; and

Expects to provide meaningful improvement to its guidance for Adjusted EBITDA

? for the fiscal year ending February 29, 2024 when it reports earnings on April

27, 2023.

The above-referenced steps include accelerating the integration of recent acquisitions by identifying synergies and implementing strategic reductions in Accolade's workforce. Additionally, the Company has evaluated its office footprint, closed or reduced certain satellite facilities, and has undertaken a strategy of relocating certain non-customer-facing roles to office locations that offer high quality skill sets and lower cost workforces. With these steps, we expect to create operating efficiencies and streamline decision-making to deliver customer support and innovation more quickly. Accolade plans to continue to hire personnel to support its service capacity needs and growth expectations.
