Significant Investment in Growth


 
©2023 Carvana, LLC Confidential Document 6 Q1 2023: Getting Back on Trend3 Continued focus on more profitable transactions, operational efficiencies, and cost reductions drove improvements in Q1 2023 financial results.


 
©2023 Carvana, LLC Confidential Document Our top management objective is to drive our business to positive free cash flow. This objective can be broken down into three steps. Our focus is now shifting to #2. 1. Drive the business to positive Adjusted EBITDA: Expected Q2 2023 2. Drive the business to significant positive unit economics, including eventually positive free cash flow. Positive Adjusted EBITDA is a milestone, but it is not our goal. 3. Once steps one and two are complete, return to growth. We believe the investments we have already made lay the groundwork for not only significant growth in the future, but significantly more profitable growth than we have delivered in the past. 7 2023 & Beyond: A stronger, more efficient Carvana 3

We have not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted GAAP measures to forecasted Non-GAAP measures within this communication because we are unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate one-time or restructuring expenses. These items could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP financial metrics. Quarter-to-date, we have completed multiple loan sales which we expect to positively impact our results in the quarter. As a result, we are providing an updated outlook below:


 
©2023 Carvana, LLC Confidential Document 9 Non-GAAP Financial Measures As appropriate, we supplement our results of operations determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with and discuss forward looking guidance with certain non-GAAP financial measurements that are used by management, and which we believe are useful to investors, as supplemental operational measurements to evaluate our financial performance. These measurements should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported GAAP results because they may include or exclude certain items as compared to similar GAAP-based measurements, and such measurements may not be comparable to similarly-titled measurements reported by other companies. Rather, these measurements should be considered as an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that provide a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements included in publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely solely on any one, single financial measurement or communication. We refer to the following non-GAAP measures in this presentation: Adjusted EBITDA; Total gross profit per retail unit, non-GAAP; and SG&A, non-GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss plus income tax expense, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, depreciation and amortization in cost of sales and SG&A, share-based compensation including the CEO Milestone Gift in cost of sales and SG&A, and restructuring costs, minus revenue related to our Root warrants. Gross profit, non-GAAP is defined as GAAP gross profit plus depreciation and amortization in cost of sales and share-based compensation including the CEO Milestone Gift in cost of sales, minus revenue related to our Root warrants. Total gross profit per retail unit, non-GAAP is Gross profit, non-GAAP divided by retail vehicle unit sales. SG&A, non-GAAP is defined as GAAP SG&A minus depreciation and amortization in SG&A, share based compensation including the CEO Milestone Gift in SG&A, and restructuring costs. We believe that these metrics are useful measures to us and to our investors because they exclude certain financial, capital structure, and non-cash items that we do not believe directly reflect our core operations and may not be indicative of our recurring operations, in part because they may vary widely across time and within our industry independent of the performance of our core operations. We believe that excluding these items enables us to more effectively evaluate our performance period-over-period and relative to our competitors.
