About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Certain Key Metrics
To provide investors and others with additional information regarding
Rimini Street’s results, we have disclosed the following non-GAAP
financial measures and certain key metrics. We have described below
Active Clients, Annualized Subscription Revenue and Revenue Retention
Rate, each of which is a key operational metric for our business. In
addition, we have disclosed the following non-GAAP financial measures:
non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA, and
adjusted EBITDA. Rimini Street has provided in the tables above a
reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this earnings
release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Due to a
valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets, there were no tax
effects associated with any of our non-GAAP adjustments. These non-GAAP
financial measures are also described below.
The primary purpose of using non-GAAP measures is to provide
supplemental information that management believes may prove useful to
investors and to enable investors to evaluate our results in the same
way management does. We also present the non-GAAP financial measures
because we believe they assist investors in comparing our performance
across reporting periods on a consistent basis, as well as comparing our
results against the results of other companies, by excluding items that
we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.
Specifically, management uses these non-GAAP measures as measures of
operating performance; to prepare our annual operating budget; to
allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business;
to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; to provide
consistency and comparability with past financial performance; to
facilitate a comparison of our results with those of other companies,
many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement
their GAAP results; and in communications with our board of directors
concerning our financial performance. Investors should be aware however,
that not all companies define these non-GAAP measures consistently.
Active Client is a distinct entity that purchases our services to
support a specific product, including a company, an educational or
government institution, or a business unit of a company. For example, we
count as two separate active clients when support for two different
products is being provided to the same entity. We believe that our
ability to expand our active clients is an indicator of the growth of
our business, the success of our sales and marketing activities, and the
value that our services bring to our clients.
Annualized Subscription Revenue is the amount of subscription
revenue recognized during a fiscal quarter and multiplied by four. This
gives us an indication of the revenue that can be earned in the
following 12-month period from our existing client base assuming no
cancellations or price changes occur during that period. Subscription
revenue excludes any non-recurring revenue, which has been insignificant
to date.
Revenue Retention Rate is the actual subscription revenue
(dollar-based) recognized over a 12-month period from customers that
were clients on the day prior to the start of such 12-month period,
divided by our Annualized Subscription Revenue as of the day prior to
the start of the 12-month period.
Non-GAAP Operating Income is operating income adjusted to
exclude: litigation costs and recoveries, net, and stock-based
compensation expense. The exclusions are discussed in further detail
below.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) is net income adjusted to
exclude: litigation costs and recoveries, net, post-judgment interest on
litigation appeal awards, stock-based compensation expense, gain from
change in fair value of embedded derivatives. These exclusions are
discussed in further detail below.
Specifically, management is excluding the following items from its
non-GAAP financial measures, as applicable, for the periods presented:
Litigation Costs and Recoveries, Net: Litigation costs and the
associated insurance and appeal recoveries relate to outside costs of
litigation activities. These costs and recoveries reflect the ongoing
litigation we are involved with, and do not relate to the day-to-day
operations or our core business of serving our clients.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense: Our compensation strategy
includes the use of stock-based compensation to attract and retain
employees. This strategy is principally aimed at aligning the employee
interests with those of our stockholders and to achieve long-term
employee retention, rather than to motivate or reward operational
performance for any particular period. As a result, stock-based
compensation expense varies for reasons that are generally unrelated to
operational decisions and performance in any particular period.
Post-judgment Interest on Litigation Appeal Award: Post-judgment
interest resulted from our appeals of ongoing litigation and does not
relate to the day-to-day operations or our core business of serving our
clients.
Gain from Change in Fair Value of Embedded Derivatives: Our
former credit facility included features that were determined to be
embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation and accounting as separate
financial instruments. We have determined to exclude the gains and
losses on embedded derivatives related to the change in fair value of
these instruments given the financial nature of this fair value
requirement. We were not able to manage these amounts as part of our
business operations, nor were the costs core to servicing our clients,
so we have excluded them.
Other Debt Financing Expenses: Other debt financing expenses
included non-cash write-offs (including write-offs due to payoff),
accretion, amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs, and
collateral monitoring and other fees payable in cash related to our
former credit facility. Since these amounts related to our debt
financing structure, we have excluded them since they do not relate to
the day-to-day operations or our core business of serving our clients.
EBITDA is net income adjusted to exclude: interest expense,
income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted to exclude: litigation costs
and recoveries, net, post-judgment interest on litigation appeal award,
stock-based compensation expense, gain from change in fair value of
embedded derivatives, and other debt financing expenses, as discussed
above.

Indivior
Indivior Provides Update on Aelis Farma’s Clinical Phase 2B Study Results with AEF0117 in Participants with Cannabis Use Disorder
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 (AS IT FORMS PART OF DOMESTIC LAW IN THE UK BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018).
- Primary and Secondary End Points of the Study were Not Met
- Indivior Does Not Currently Expect to Exercise AEF0117 Option
SLOUGH, United Kingdom and RICHMOND, Va., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Indivior PLC (Nasdaq/LSE: INDV) is today providing an update following Aelis Farma’s announcement of the results from its clinical Phase 2B trial with AEF01171, evaluating the efficacy and safety in treatment-seeking participants with moderate to severe Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD). The purpose of this trial was twofold: (1) to show that AEF0117 (0.1, 0.3, 1 mg once a day for 12 weeks) lowers cannabis use and (2) to determine the endpoints and optimal dosage of AEF0117 for use in future studies. In this phase 2B study, patients were treatment-seeking participants, 84% of whom had severe CUD.
The results of the study demonstrated that the primary endpoint, the proportion of participants who reduced their cannabis use to ≤1 day per week, as well as secondary endpoints measuring the proportion of participants reaching either complete abstinence or who used ≤2 day per week, were not met. Although these results are disappointing, they indicate that significant work remains to be done to understand subpopulations of patients with CUD, specifically those with severe CUD.
This clinical Phase 2B study is part of the strategic collaboration between Aelis Farma and Indivior, which includes an exclusive option for Indivior to license the global rights to AEF0117. Given the lack of separation from placebo on primary and secondary endpoints and before seeing further additional favorable clinical data, Indivior does not currently expect to exercise its option.
Important Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains certain statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, express and implied statements regarding whether: we will be able to ultimately demonstrate the safety and efficacy of AEF0117, which is a prerequisite to filing any New Drug Application; we might ever exercise our option for AEF0117 and, if so, when; and other statements containing the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “strategy,” “target,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “potential,” “project,” “priority,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “outlook,” “guidance,” the negatives thereof, and variations thereon and similar expressions.
