EXPLANATORY NOTE
Wix.com Ltd. (NASDAQ: WIX), (“Wix,” the “Company,” “we” or “our”) a leading global SaaS platform to create, manage and grow an online presence, today shared that the Company’s business operations have not been disrupted and that the Company does not anticipate any impact to operations going forward amidst the evolving conflict in Israel.
All of Wix’s infrastructure and internal networks are cloud-based and located completely outside of Israel.
Less than 5% of the Company’s total workforce are in the military reserves with contingencies in place to take on their responsibilities. Because of the extensive military call-ups that have already occurred, the Company does not expect this number to increase meaningfully. Key systems and IT functions are distributed globally, the customer care team is centralized outside of Israel and sales functions are located primarily in the U.S.
Avishai Abrahami, WIX co-founder and CEO, commented, “While we don’t know how long this war will last, I am grateful that all of our employees are accounted for. The safety and well-being of our team members and their families is our top priority, and we have implemented multiple initiatives to support them as well as fellow Israelis broadly. We’re working towards resuming normal work routines that prioritizes the physical safety and mental well-being of our team during a potentially lengthy war. Amidst all of this, we remain confident in the execution of our strategy and long-term growth plans.”
