*The Company measures GMV to assess the volume of transactions that take place on its PSQ Payments platform. The Company defines GMV as the total dollar amount of all transactions generated from the Financial Technology segment during the applicable period, net of refunds. GMV does not represent revenue earned by the Company; however, it is an indicator of the success of the Company’s merchants and the strength of the Company’s platform.

**GMV metrics are based on internal company data, assumptions, and estimates and are used in managing our business. The Company believes that these figures are reasonable estimates, and the Company actively takes measures to improve their accuracy, such as eliminating known fictitious or duplicate accounts. There are, however, inherent challenges in gathering accurate data across large online and mobile populations. All data is unaudited and is subject to adjustment.
