HIGH ROLLER TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Explanatory Notes on Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures We believe “Adjusted EBITDA,” a “non-GAAP financial measure,” as such term is defined under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), is useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation is provided within this Free Writing Prospectus for each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business. We reconcile our non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA to our net income (loss), adjusted to exclude interest expense, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, share-based compensation, foreign exchange loss (gain), depreciation and amortization, impairment, and certain charges or gains resulting from non-recurring or irregular events, if any. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, as well as the 3 months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we did not have any such non-recurring events. 4
