Our full year 2026 guidance reflects our carve-out financial results for the first six months of the year and consolidated financial results for the second six months.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, as the Company is unable to estimate certain items that impact Net income, and other reconciling metrics are outside the Company’s control and/or cannot be estimated without unreasonable effort. The amounts and timing of these items are uncertain and could be material to the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Earnings Webcast

Mobility Global will host a live conference call at 8:00 a.m. EDT on Friday, August 7, 2026 to discuss its second quarter 2026 financial results. The conference call will be webcast to the public via a link on the Investor Relations website at https://ir.mobilityglobal.com.

Additional Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures

It should be noted that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow are financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as alternatives to Net income attributable to Mobility Global or other comparable measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures are presented here to provide additional useful measurements to review the Company’s operations, provide transparency to investors and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker uses these measures to assess the ongoing performance of the Company and its segments, as well as for business and enterprise planning purposes.

A description of other non-GAAP financial measures that Mobility Global uses to evaluate its operations and financial performance, and reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP, can be found in Exhibit 5 of this press release, which is also available on Mobility Global’s website at https://ir.mobilityglobal.com.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains “forward-looking statements,” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which express management’s current views concerning future events, trends, contingencies or results, as well as our full-year 2026 guidance, appear at various places in this press release and use words like “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “strategy,” “target” and similar terms, and future or conditional tense verbs like “could,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “will” and “would.” For example, management may use forward-looking statements when addressing topics such as: the outcome of contingencies; future actions by regulators; changes in the business strategies and methods of generating revenue of the Company; and the development and performance of the Company’s services and products; the expected impact of acquisitions and dispositions; the Company’s effective tax rates; the Company’s cost structure, dividend policy, cash flows or liquidity.

Forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. Several factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements. The Company and its subsidiaries operate in a dynamic business environment in which new risks emerge frequently. Accordingly, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which it is made, except as required by applicable law. Further information about the Company’s businesses, including information about factors that could materially affect its results of operations and financial condition, is contained in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including the section titled “Risk Factors” of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on August 7, 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Definitions

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free cash flow

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as our GAAP net income adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, net, (2) provisions for income taxes, (3) depreciation and amortization, (4) stock-based compensation, (5) transaction costs related to the stand-up of the Spin Business in connection with the Separation, and (6) employee severance charges and other costs that are not representative of the underlying economics of the periods presented. Net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a non-GAAP measure and refers to Adjusted EBITDA divided by GAAP revenue. Further, Mobility Global presents these non-GAAP measures on a segment basis, which are subject to the same adjustments as Adjusted EBITDA. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and reflects our cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
