NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
We have provided non-GAAP measures as a supplement to financial results based on GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in the accompanying supplemental data. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) plus (to the extent deducted in calculating such net income) interest and amortization expense, gain on debt extinguishment, USDA cash grants, income tax expense or benefit, intangible and other amortization expense, accretion expense, depreciation expense, loss on asset disposal and share-based compensation expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss), operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is a useful performance measure that is widely used within the industry in which we operate. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA for reviewing financial results, for budgeting and planning purposes and as a non-GAAP liquidity measure. Adjusted EBITDA measures are not calculated in the same manner by all companies and, accordingly, may not be an appropriate measure for comparison between companies.

Octopus Deploy Announces Integration With Datadog for World-class Monitoring of Deployment Pipelines
BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - June 10, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - Octopus Deploy (Octopus), the industry standard for Continuous Delivery (CD), has announced an integration with Datadog, the monitoring and security platform for cloud platforms. The integration monitors Octopus deployments through the Datadog Agent. Used together, Octopus and Datadog become part of an organization's world-class pipeline, with both platforms supporting software at scale and integrating with any technology. Customers get a single pane of glass for monitoring, making it easier to track, visualize, and improve key metrics across all their projects. Learn more about the Octopus Datadog integration: The Octopus Datadog integration, built by Datadog, collects metrics from Octopus so customers can centralize their monitoring in Datadog. DevOps and platform engineering teams can track the performance of their teams' pipelines and visualize key metrics across all projects in one place. Site reliability engineers (SREs) and operations folks can monitor their applications running in production, see logs, and correlate problems that arise with what actually happened. "To quickly troubleshoot issues with software releases, engineering teams need granular, real-time visibility into their deployment pipelines in the same place they monitor the health and performance of their production services. By bringing deployment metrics and logs into Datadog, teams can quickly detect failed releases, understand their root causes, and correlate them with broader system performance," Jimmy Caputo, Director of Product Management at Datadog. Octopus strengthened its observability and monitoring this year with Kubernetes Live Object Status, which gives customers real-time updates about the state of their applications running on Kubernetes. Octopus also provides visibility into all deployments on its dashboards. Customers can see the stage, environment, and state of each deployment across multiple repositories in one place, and click through for the details on each project. The visibility you get in Octopus is further improved when combined with Datadog. The Octopus Datadog integration pulls data from Octopus into Datadog. From there, customers can monitor everything in their DevOps stack - all infrastructure, systems, apps, and services - in a single location. "We want to help our customers get working software into production as soon as possible, and the Octopus Datadog integration helps do just that," Colin Bowern, SVP of Product at Octopus Deploy. "Octopus already provides great visibility across your Continuous Delivery pipeline, but with the Octopus Datadog integration, you can see your entire DevOps stack in one spot and correlate data more easily, using two best-of-breed platforms." The Datadog Agent collects metrics from Octopus used for performance monitoring, like average deployment time per environment, and deployment failure rate for a project. It also collects deployment logs, which are useful for debugging failed deployments, and server logs, which provide diagnostic information about the Octopus server. The Octopus Datadog integration can be set up following the instructions in the Datadog Docs. You can experience the power of the Octopus and Datadog integration at DASH, Datadog's annual observability conference, in New York City, June 1011, 2025, by visiting Octopus Deploy's booth. About At Octopus Deploy, we set the standard for Continuous Delivery (CD), empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Globally, more than 4,000 organizations rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions to deliver swift value to their customers. Octopus efficiently orchestrates software delivery across multi-cloud, Kubernetes, data centers, and hybrid environments, whether containerized modern apps or heritage applications. With governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) at its core, Octopus supports Platform Engineering teams in their mission to provide a superior Developer Experience (DevEx). Octopus is committed to actively contributing to the developer community with open-source projects, including Argo in the CNCF and other communities dedicated to advancing software delivery and operational performance.
