Represents a non-GAAP financial measure.
For additional information (including reconciliation information),
see the attached schedules to this release.
2.
Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) is the
annualized revenue derived from software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)
arrangements, transaction-based software-revenue, software
maintenance, recurring software-based services, payments revenue
and other recurring revenue sources within the quarter. This
excludes contracts that are not recurring or are one-time in
nature. The Company focuses on ARR because it helps i3 Verticals to
assess the health and trajectory of the business. ARR does not have
a standardized definition and is therefore unlikely to be
comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other
companies. It should be reviewed independently of revenue, and it
is not a forecast. The active contracts at the end of a reporting
period used in calculating ARR may or may not be extended or
renewed by the Company's customers.
3.
Software and related services revenue
includes the sale of licenses, subscriptions, installation and
implementation services, and ongoing support specific to
software.
Greg Daily, Chairman and CEO of i3 Verticals, commented, “We are
pleased to announce excellent results for the second quarter and
the refinancing of our Senior Secured Credit Facility for another
five years. We set another annualized recurring revenue record in
the second quarter, and our revenue from software and related
services accounted for more than 50% of total revenue. Our most
recent acquisition, AccuFund, is off to a great start and we are
excited about our prospects for the second half of the fiscal
year.
“We believe that the terms that were achieved in the new Senior
Secured Credit Facility, against the backdrop of a volatile credit
market, are a testament to our attractive strategic model and
financial strength. In addition to upsizing our revolving line of
credit capacity for future M&A, we added flexibility in our
financial covenants and improved pricing on our interest rates. We
are grateful to all the banks who participated in the facility,
including J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, Fifth Third Bank, Regions Bank,
TD Bank, KeyBank, and Bank of America. We are confident in our
ability to continue to execute our growth strategy.”
Revised 2023 Outlook
The Company's practice is to provide annual guidance, excluding
future acquisitions and transaction-related costs.
The Company is providing the following revised outlook for the
fiscal year ending September 30, 2023:

1.
Assumes an effective pro forma tax rate of
25.0% (non-GAAP).
With respect to the “Revised 2023 Outlook” above, reconciliation
of adjusted EBITDA and pro forma adjusted diluted earnings per
share guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure on a
forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable
efforts. This inability results from the inherent difficulty in
forecasting generally and quantifying certain projected amounts
that are necessary for such reconciliations. In particular,
sufficient information is not available to calculate certain
adjustments required for such reconciliations, including changes in
the fair value of contingent consideration, income tax expense of
i3 Verticals, Inc. and equity-based compensation expense. The
Company expects these adjustments may potentially have a
significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains information prepared in conformity
with GAAP as well as non-GAAP information. It is management’s
intent to provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance
understanding of the Company's consolidated financial information
as prepared in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP information
should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead
of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each
non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure are presented so as not to imply that more
emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The non-GAAP
financial information presented may be determined or calculated
differently by other companies.
Additional information about non-GAAP financial measures,
including, but not limited to, pro forma adjusted net income,
adjusted EBITDA and pro forma adjusted diluted EPS, and a
reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable
GAAP measures is included in the financial schedules of this
release.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company believes that non-GAAP financial measures are
important to enable investors to understand and evaluate its
ongoing operating results. Accordingly, i3 Verticals includes
non-GAAP financial measures when reporting its financial results to
shareholders and potential investors in order to provide them with
an additional tool to evaluate the Company’s ongoing business
operations. i3 Verticals believes that the non-GAAP financial
measures are representative of comparative financial performance
that reflects the economic substance of i3 Verticals’ current and
ongoing business operations.
Although non-GAAP financial measures are often used to measure
the Company's operating results and assess its financial
performance, they are not necessarily comparable to similarly
titled measures of other companies due to potential inconsistencies
in the method of calculation. i3 Verticals believes that its
provision of non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with
important key financial performance indicators that are utilized by
management to assess the Company's operating results, evaluate the
business and make operational decisions on a prospective,
going-forward basis. Hence, management provides disclosure of
non-GAAP financial measures to give shareholders and potential
investors an opportunity to see i3 Verticals as viewed by
management, to assess i3 Verticals with some of the same tools that
management utilizes internally and to be able to compare such
information with prior periods. i3 Verticals believes that
inclusion of non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with
additional information to help them better understand its financial
statements just as management utilizes these non-GAAP financial
measures to better understand the business, manage budgets and
allocate resources.
