Business Highlights

·	Product Innovation:

Wix is announcing today the launch of a new product that will turn the Wix App Market into a dynamic data ecosystem. The new Wix Hive enables standalone apps to share data and create powerful new insights and functionalities that website owners can leverage to further manage and grow their businesses online.

During the first quarter, Wix released a steady flow of new features and capabilities to its HTML5 platform including 3D image galleries, animations to text and images, social media tools and enhanced e-commerce capabilities. The company’s rapid product development cycle, which in the first quarter led to the release of 100 new features in 100 days, is supported by an R&D team of over 300 people enabling Wix to stay ahead in a dynamic technological landscape.

Mobile: Wix is announcing today the launch of its new Sonic Mobile technology, which dramatically speeds up the load time of a user’s mobile site. Additionally, during Q1, Wix acquired Appixia, a technology for building native mobile and mobile commerce apps in a completely code-free environment. With these technological advancements, over 2.8 million mobile sites published on its platform to date and approximately 400,000 being added each month, Wix continues to fortify its leadership in the mobile space.

·	Localized Payment Partnerships: Wix signed two partnerships to deepen its penetration in international markets, by enabling users to purchase a premium subscription with local payment methods they are familiar with and can easily access:

A partnership with Yandex.Money, the largest online payment service in Russia

A partnership with MercadoPago, the leading payment processor in Latin America

Distribution Partnership: Following the close of Q1, the company announced its first reseller partnership with a domain registrar, REG.RU.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, Wix uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: collections, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share (collectively the "non-GAAP financial measures"). Collections represents the total cash collected by us from our customers in a given period and is calculated by adding the change in deferred revenues for a particular period to revenues for the same period. Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation and amortization, and further eliminates the effect of share-based compensation expense, withdrawn secondary offering expenses and acquisition related expenses. Free cash flow represents cash flow from operating activities minus capital expenditures. Non-GAAP net loss represents net loss calculated in accordance with GAAP as adjusted for the impact of share-based compensation expense and other non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP net loss per share represents non-GAAP net loss divided by the weighted average number of shares used in computing GAAP loss per share.

The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The company believes that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" table in this press release. This accompanying table has more details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. The company has not reconciled adjusted EBITDA guidance to net profit because it does not provide guidance for net profit. As items that impact net profit are out of the company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, the company is unable to provide such guidance. Accordingly, a reconciliation to net profit is not available without unreasonable effort.
