Second Quarter 2024 Business Highlights and Subsequent Events

• Long-Term Refinancing. The Company announced today a comprehensive refinancing of its capital structure with TCW and funds affiliated with Morgan Stanley Investment Management, that is expected to extend its term loan to June 30, 2028, and its preferred equity to December 31, 2028. The extended timing for the term loan beyond August 31, 2025 and the preferred equity beyond September 30, 2026, are both subject to securing a $15 million letter of credit that the Company anticipates finalizing shortly and which would provide additional working capital.

Revised 2024 Financial Outlook

Our fiscal year 2024 guidance, as a result of the impact of working capital and FinTech credit limit constraints caused by delays in completing the refinancing, is adjusted as follows:

• Net revenues of approximately $240 million to $250 million, representing an increase of 10% versus 2023 net revenues, measured at the midpoint.

• Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $25 million to $30 million, representing an increase of 42% versus 2023 Adjusted EBITDA, measured at the midpoint.

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “believe,” “could,” “may,” “expect,” “intend,” “potential,” “plan,” “will” and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements we make regarding the Company’s future growth, performance, business prospects and opportunities, strategies, expectations, future plans and intentions or other future events. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, the Company cautions you that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to, the ability to implement business plans and forecasts, the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company or others and any definitive agreements with respect thereto, the ability of the Company to grow and manage growth profitably, retain management and key employees, and maintain relationships with our distribution network and suppliers, the ability of the Company to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing standards, the expected changes to the Company’s capital structure, and other risks and uncertainties set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and Quarterly Report of Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and in the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC. There may be additional risks that the Company does not presently know of or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

Nothing in this press release should be regarded as a representation by any person that the forward-looking statements set forth herein will be achieved or that any of the contemplated results of such forward-looking statements will be achieved. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Except as required by law, Mondee undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

Operating Metrics
This press release also includes certain operating metrics that the Company believes are useful in providing additional information in assessing the overall performance of Mondee’s business.

Transactions are defined as the number of travel reservations that were processed on Mondee’s platform during the period. A single transaction could include an airline ticket, a hotel or hospitality accommodation, and any number of ancillaries offered on the platform. Gross bookings are defined as the total dollar value, generally inclusive of taxes and fees, of all travel reservations through our platform between a third-party seller or service provider and the traveler, net of cancellations. Take rate is defined as revenues as a percentage of gross bookings. Mondee generates revenue from service fees earned on these transactions and, accordingly its revenue increases or decreases based on the increase or decrease in either or both the number or value of transactions Mondee processes. Revenue will increase as a result of the expansion in Mondee's distribution platform and/or as a result of an increase in service fees from higher value services offered on the platform.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this press release and the accompanying tables include the following non-GAAP measures: adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss, and adjusted net loss per share.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss before 1) interest expense, net; 2) benefit (provision) for income taxes; 3) depreciation and amortization; 4) stock-based compensation expense; and 5) certain other expenses. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss.

Adjusted net loss is defined as net loss before 1) stock-based compensation and related payroll tax expense; 2) amortization of intangibles; 3) income tax benefit (provision); and 4) and certain other expenses. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss.

Adjusted net loss per share is defined as adjusted net loss plus cumulative dividends allocated to preferred stockholders divided by the average number of basic or diluted (whichever is applicable) shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Mondee believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors and other users of this financial information consistency and comparability with its past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations. With respect to adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net loss, Mondee believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s profitability relative to the amount of revenue generated, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and certain other expenses and/or non-cash expenses. Mondee also believes non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry, as these metrics eliminate the effects of stock-based compensation, which may vary for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

Mondee uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with traditional GAAP measures as part of its overall assessment of the Company’s performance, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, and to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies. Mondee’s definition may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore, comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish this or similar metrics. Thus, Mondee’s non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, nor superior to or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
