Cvent Q3 2022 Business Update

November 2022

Cautionary Language Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this presentation that are not audited financial results or other historical information are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, and you can often identify these forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking words such as "outlook," "believes," "expects," "potential," "continues," "may," "will," "should," "could," "seeks," "approximately," "predicts," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates," "target," "projects," "forecasts," "shall," "contemplates" or the negative version of those

words or other comparable words. Any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based upon Cvent's historical performance and on its current plans, estimates, expectations, observations and trends in light of information currently available to Cvent and are made only as of the date hereof. The inclusion of forward-looking information should not be regarded as a representation by Cvent that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by Cvent will be achieved. Certain management projections are presented for informational purposes only, and there can be no assurance that the projections will come to fruition. Actual results could be materially worse than those presented in these projections. Any changes in the applicability of key assumptions may have a material effect on such analysis and hence any projections contained herein.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated,

including, but not limited to, those disclosed previously in the sections entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in our most

recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the "Summary Risk Factors" slides at the end of this presentation.

Cvent derives many of its forward-looking statements from its operating budgets and forecasts, which are based on many detailed assumptions. While Cvent believes its assumptions are reasonable, it is impossible for Cvent to anticipate all factors that could affect Cvent's actual results. There is no assurance that any forward-looking statements will materialize. All written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Cvent, or persons acting on Cvent's behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements as well as other cautionary statements that are made from time to time in Cvent's other SEC filings and public communications. Investors should evaluate all forward-looking statements in the context of these risks and uncertainties. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward- looking statement except as required by law, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. We use certain non-GAAP measures for financial, operational and budgetary-making purposes, and to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information regarding past financial performance and future prospects.

However, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures either in isolation or as an alternative for other methods of analyzing the results as reported under GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure can be found at the end of this presentation. We have not reconciled the non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow Margin, Adjusted Sales & Marketing, Adjusted Research & Development and Adjusted General & Administrative forward-looking guidance included in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because certain items are out of Cvent's control or cannot reasonably be predicted, as the items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these forward- looking non-GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort.
