The words "anticipate", "believe", "continue", "could", "estimate", "expect", "intends", "may", "might", "plan", "possible", "potential", "predict", "project", "should", "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward looking statements are based Global Blue's current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on Global Blue. There can be no assurance that the future developments affecting Global Blue will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond Global Blue's control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Except as required by law, Global Blue is not undertaking any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Financial Information.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures. This presentation includes certain financial measures not prepared in accordance with IFRS, which constitute "non-IFRS financial measures" as defined by the
rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-IFRS financial measures include: Adjusted Operating Expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Depreciation & Amortization, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted Profit Before Tax, Adjusted Income Tax Expense, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income (Group Share), Net Financial Debt, Net Leverage Ratio.
Global Blue has included these non-IFRS financial measures because it believes they provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating the financial performance and prospects of Global Blue. These non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. In addition, these non-IFRS financial measures may differ from non-IFRS financial measures with comparable names used by other companies. Note however, that to the extent forward-looking non-IFRS financial measures are provided herein, they are not reconciled to comparable historic IFRS measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation.
