Business Outlook
Based on information available as of August 8, 2023, WM Technology is issuing guidance for the third quarter of 2023 as follows:
Revenue is estimated to be $47 million
Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA(1) is estimated to be approximately $4 million.
The guidance provided above is only an estimate of what we believe is realizable as of the date of this release. We are not readily able to provide a reconciliation of projected Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to projected net income (loss) without unreasonable effort. This guidance assumes that no business acquisitions, investments, restructurings, or legal settlements are concluded in the period. Our results are based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable as of this date, but may be materially affected by many factors, as discussed below in βForward-Looking Statements.β Actual results may vary from the guidance and the variations may be material. We undertake no intent or obligation to publicly update or revise any of these projections, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
