However, not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

Further information on risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from forecasted results are included in Asana's filings with the SEC, including Asana's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2025 and subsequent filings with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on assumptions that Asana believes to be reasonable as of this date. Except as required by law, Asana assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons if actual results differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement Asana's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Asana utilizes certain non-GAAP financial measures to assist in understanding and evaluating its core operating performance. In this release, Asana's non-GAAP gross income, gross margin, operating expenses, operating expenses as a percentage of revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income, net income per share, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, and revenues adjusted for the impact of foreign currency are not presented in accordance with GAAP and are not intended to be used in lieu of GAAP presentations of results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of Asana's financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures which can be found in the accompanying financial statements included with this press release. Asana is presenting these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about its financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of Asana's past performance and future prospects, facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operations against other companies in Asana's industry, and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by Asana's management for financial and operational decision-making. Asana believes the following adjustments and exclusions from its non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and others in assessing Asana's operating performance due to the following factors: Stock-based compensation expenses. Although stock-based compensation is an important aspect of the compensation of our employees and executives, management believes it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation expenses to better understand the long-term performance of Asana's core business and to facilitate comparison of its results to those of peer companies. Employer payroll tax associated with RSUs. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on Asana's stock price and other factors that are beyond its control and that do not correlate to the operation of the business. Non-cash expenses. Non-cash expenses include charges for impairment of long-lived assets. We believe the exclusion of certain non-cash items provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of its operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Restructuring related costs (benefits). These charges are associated with the re-alignment of our organization to meet business needs, top strategic priorities, and key growth opportunities. We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business, to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies, and to facilitate comparison over multiple periods. Revenues adjusted for the impact of foreign currency. Calculated by applying the comparative prior period average exchange rates to revenue recognized on invoices billed in currencies other than United States dollars in the current period. Asana provides revenues adjusted for the impact of foreign exchange rates as a framework for assessing how our underlying business performed from period to period, excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. The growth rates for revenues adjusted for the impact of foreign currency are calculated by comparing the revenues adjusted for the impact of foreign currency in the current period to the GAAP revenue from the comparable prior period. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures as compared to GAAP financial measures, including that the non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in Asana's business and an important part of its compensation strategy. In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures outlined above, Asana also uses the non-GAAP financial measures of free cash flow, which is defined as net cash from operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software costs, and adjusted free cash flow, which is defined as free cash flow plus costs paid related to restructuring. Asana believes free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are important liquidity measures of the cash that is available, after capital expenditures and operational expenses, for investment in its business and to make acquisitions. Asana believes that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful to investors as liquidity measures because they measure Asana's ability to generate or use cash. There are a number of limitations related to the use of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow as compared to net cash from operating activities, including that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow exclude capital expenditures, the benefits of which are realized in periods subsequent to those when expenditures are made. Definitions of Business Metrics Customers spending $5,000 or more on an annualized basis, or Core customers We define customers spending $5,000 or more, which we also refer to as Core customers, as those organizations on a paid subscription plan that had $5,000 or more in annualized GAAP revenues in a given quarter, inclusive of discounts. Customers spending $100,000 or more on an annualized basis We define customers spending $100,000 or more as those organizations on a paid subscription plan that had $100,000 or more in annualized GAAP revenues in a given quarter, inclusive of discounts. Dollar-based net retention rate Asana's reported dollar-based net retention rate equals the simple arithmetic average of its quarterly dollar-based net retention rate for the four quarters ending with the most recent fiscal quarter. Asana calculates its dollar-based net retention rate by comparing its revenues from the same set of customers in a given quarter, relative to the comparable prior-year period. To calculate Asana's dollar-based net retention rate for a given quarter, Asana starts with the revenues in that quarter from customers that generated revenues in the same quarter of the prior year. Asana then divides that amount by the revenues attributable to that same group of customers in the prior-year quarter. Current period revenues include any upsells and are net of contraction or attrition over the trailing 12 months, but exclude revenues from new customers in the current period. Asana expects its dollar-based net retention rate to fluctuate in future periods due to a number of factors, including the expected growth of its revenue base, the level of penetration within its customer base, its ability to retain its customers, and the macroeconomic environment.

Asana Named a Leader in Collaborative Work Management Tools, Q2 2025 Evaluation
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Asana, Inc. (NYSE: ASAN) (LTSE: ASAN), the leading work management platform for human + AI coordination, today announced it has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Collaborative Work Management (CWM) Tools, Q2 2025 1. Asana secured the top score in the Strategy category and achieved the highest possible scores in nine Wave criteria, including Vision, Innovation, Roadmap, Enterprise Work Management, and Usability and CX. Forrester Research writes, "Asana's vision for CWM aims to empower teams of humans and AI to work together seamlessly, transforming ideas into impact." This recognition comes as enterprises seek to maximize productivity and compete effectively in an AI-driven economy. Asana's position stems from its strategic focus on effective human + AI coordination – including innovations like AI Studio and Smart Workflow Gallery – that addresses organizations' need for tools that deliver both transparency and results. 'Work today flows not just between people, but between people and AI. Yet most organizations are still juggling disconnected tools that bury context and make it hard to answer the basics - who's doing what, by when, how, and why,' said Dustin Moskovitz, co‑founder and CEO of Asana. 'Asana fixes that by connecting all work to the goals it serves and by bringing AI directly into the workflow, so that progress is transparent and everyone moves in the same direction. 'Simply bolting AI onto yesterday's systems just automates the chaos. Real transformation happens when AI has the right scaffolding and context to act with purpose. Our Work Graph is a living map of every goal, task, and dependency. Powered by purpose‑built AI, it turns strategy into synchronized execution–translating vision into action, surfacing risks before they escalate, and aligning every team around shared outcomes, at any scale. That's the future of human + AI coordination, and it's the future Asana is delivering.' Asana believes the Forrester report reinforces the company's strategic direction. Margo Visitacion of Forrester Research writes, "Asana's vision for CWM aims to empower teams of humans and AI to work together seamlessly, transforming ideas into impact." The report also states that Asana "...leverages intelligent automation and purpose-built AI agents and enhances productivity while reducing manual effort.' Asana's key highlights in the report include: Strategy: Asana received the highest score in the Strategy category. The report acknowledges Asana's vision for CWM, which aims to empower teams of humans and AI to work together seamlessly. Forrester cited Asana's roadmap emphasis on "smart work" that supports customer workflows and the continued enhancement of its Work Graph to interrogate data and surface complex patterns. Enterprise Readiness and Capabilities: Asana received the highest possible score in the Enterprise Work Management criterion. The company's solution is "designed to be flexible and scalable," proven with over 200,000 users in a single deployment. Future-Proofing through Innovation: Asana also received the highest possible scores in the Vision, Innovation, and Roadmap criteria. Asana AI enhances work, scales best practices via the Smart Workflow Gallery, and enables designing custom AI workflows with AI Studio.

Asana Named a Leader in Collaborative Work Management Tools, Q2 2025 Evaluation
Scored highest in the Strategy category; Highest possible scores in Vision, Innovation, and Roadmap criteria SAN FRANCISCO, June 03, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Asana, Inc. (NYSE: ASAN) (LTSE: ASAN), the leading work management platform for human + AI coordination, today announced it has been named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Collaborative Work Management (CWM) Tools, Q2 20251. Asana secured the top score in the Strategy category and achieved the highest possible scores in nine Wave criteria, including Vision, Innovation, Roadmap, Enterprise Work Management, and Usability and CX. This recognition comes as enterprises seek to maximize productivity and compete effectively in an AI-driven economy. Asana's position stems from its strategic focus on effective human + AI coordination – including innovations like AI Studio and Smart Workflow Gallery – that addresses organizations' need for tools that deliver both transparency and results. "Work today flows not just between people, but between people and AI. Yet most organizations are still juggling disconnected tools that bury context and make it hard to answer the basics - who's doing what, by when, how, and why," said Dustin Moskovitz, co‑founder and CEO of Asana. "Asana fixes that by connecting all work to the goals it serves and by bringing AI directly into the workflow, so that progress is transparent and everyone moves in the same direction. "Simply bolting AI onto yesterday's systems just automates the chaos. Real transformation happens when AI has the right scaffolding and context to act with purpose. Our Work Graph is a living map of every goal, task, and dependency. Powered by purpose‑built AI, it turns strategy into synchronized execution–translating vision into action, surfacing risks before they escalate, and aligning every team around shared outcomes, at any scale. That's the future of human + AI coordination, and it's the future Asana is delivering." Asana believes the Forrester report reinforces the company's strategic direction. Margo Visitacion of Forrester Research writes, "Asana's vision for CWM aims to empower teams of humans and AI to work together seamlessly, transforming ideas into impact." The report also states that Asana "...leverages intelligent automation and purpose-built AI agents and enhances productivity while reducing manual effort." Asana's key highlights in the report include: Strategy: Asana received the highest score in the Strategy category. The report acknowledges Asana's vision for CWM, which aims to empower teams of humans and AI to work together seamlessly. Forrester cited Asana's roadmap emphasis on "smart work" that supports customer workflows and the continued enhancement of its Work Graph to interrogate data and surface complex patterns. Enterprise Readiness and Capabilities: Asana received the highest possible score in the Enterprise Work Management criterion. The company's solution is "designed to be flexible and scalable," proven with over 200,000 users in a single deployment. Future-Proofing through Innovation: Asana also received the highest possible scores in the Vision, Innovation, and Roadmap criteria. Asana AI enhances work, scales best practices via the Smart Workflow Gallery, and enables designing custom AI workflows with AI Studio. This allows AI to do things like triage requests, categorize work, and assign priorities directly in the workflow.
