Forward Looking Information
In this press release, we make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Further, statements that include words such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "present," "preserve," "project," "pursue," "will," or "would," or the negative of these words or other words or expressions of similar meaning may identify forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in the forward-looking statements include without limitation:
•our reliance on third-party platforms, such as the iOS App Store, Facebook, and Google Play Store, to distribute our games and collect revenues, and the risk that such platforms may adversely change their policies;
•our reliance on a limited number of games to generate the majority of our revenue;
•our reliance on a small percentage of total users to generate a majority of our revenue;
•our free-to-play business model, and the value of virtual items sold in our games, is highly dependent on how we manage the game revenues and pricing models;
•our inability to complete acquisitions and integrate any acquired businesses successfully could limit our growth or disrupt our plans and operations;
•we may be unable to successfully develop new games;
•our ability to compete in a highly competitive industry with low barriers to entry;
•we have significant indebtedness and are subject to the obligations and restrictive covenants under our debt instruments;
•the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and the economy as a whole;
•our controlled company status;
•legal or regulatory restrictions or proceedings could adversely impact our business and limit the growth of our operations;
•risks related to our international operations and ownership, including our significant operations in Israel, Ukraine and Belarus and the fact that our controlling stockholder is a Chinese-owned company;
•our reliance on key personnel;
•security breaches or other disruptions could compromise our information or our players’ information and expose us to liability; and
•our inability to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information could adversely impact our business.
Additional factors that may cause future events and actual results, financial or otherwise, to differ, potentially materially, from those discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements include the risks and uncertainties discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Credit Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be construed as an alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance, nor as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure in each case as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Below is a reconciliation of Credit Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the closest GAAP financial measure. Our Credit Agreement defines Adjusted EBITDA (which we call “Credit Adjusted EBITDA”) as net income before (i) interest expense, (ii) interest income, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense, (v) stock-based compensation, (vi) contingent consideration, (vii) acquisition and related expenses, and (viii) certain other items. We calculate Credit Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Credit Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenues.
Credit Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Adjusted EBITDA Margin as calculated herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies within the industry and are not determined in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of Credit Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Adjusted EBITDA Margin should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or unexpected items.

_________
(1) Reflects, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, stock-based compensation expense related to the issuance of equity awards to certain of our employees.
(2) Amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily relates to expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the evaluation of strategic alternatives for the Company. Amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily relates to bonus expenses paid as a result of the successful initial public offering of the Company’s stock in January 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are key operating measures used by our management to assess our financial performance and to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and to compare our performance against other peer companies using similar measures. We evaluate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin in conjunction with our results according to GAAP because we believe they provide investors and analysts a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than GAAP measures alone.
(a) Includes expenses recognized for grants of annual cash awards to employees pursuant to our Retention Plans, which awards are incremental to salary and bonus payments, and which plans expire in 2024. For more information, see notes to our consolidated financial statements.
(b) Includes retention awards to key individuals associated with acquired companies as an incentive to retain those individuals on a long-term basis. The income amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily relates to the reduction of contingent consideration payable to employees of the Company that were also selling Shareholders of Reworks. This portion of the contingent consideration is being accounted for as an M&A retention payment to these employees, with changes in the amounts recognized as compensation expense.

Additional factors that may cause future events and actual results, financial or otherwise, to differ, potentially materially , from those discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements include the risks and uncertainties discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and reported results should not be considered as an indication of future performance. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by Playtika relating to market size and growth and other data about Playtika’s industry. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures of us, including Adjusted EBITDA and Credit Adjusted EBITDA. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flow of the company. You should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP. For information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures used by us, and for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, see the Appendix to this presentation. 2

RECONCILIATION Credit Adjusted EBITDA: Our Credit Agreement defines Adjusted EBITDA (which we call “Credit Adjusted EBITDA”) as net income before (i) interest expense, (ii) interest income, (iii) provision for income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization expense, (v) s tock-based compensation, (vi) contingent consideration, (vii) acquisition and related expenses, and (viii) certain other items. Executive management is compensated, in part, based upon achieving certain Adjusted EBITDA targets as more completely describ ed in our proxy statement. Adjusted EBITDA for these purposes represents Credit Adjusted EBITDA shown above, further adjusted to reflect certain elements of cash-based compensation and other items. We supplementally present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key operating measure used by our management to assess our financia l performance. Adjusted EBITDA adjusts for items that we believe do not reflect the ongoing operating performance of our busines s, such as certain noncash items, unusual or infrequent items or items that change from period to period without any material relevan ce to our operating performance. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and analysts in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, and t o compare our performance against other peer companies using similar measures. We evaluate Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with o ur results according to GAAP because we believe it provides investors and analysts a more complete understanding of factors and trends a ffecting our business than GAAP measures alone. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP 13 2021 2022 (in millions) Credit Adjusted EBITDA $ 217.0 $ 203.5 Long-term cash compensation 28.5 27.0 M&A related retention payments 2.3 0.2 Adjusted EBITDA $ 247.8 $ 230.7 Adjusted EBITDA Margin 39.0% 35.6% Three months ended September 30, Unaudited 2021 2022 (in millions) Net income $ 80.5 $ 68.2 Provision for income taxes 49.1 38.9 Interest and other, net 24.9 24.3 Depreciation and amortization 36.5 39.6 EBITDA 191.0 171.0 Stock-based compensation 23.0 31.6 Contingent Consideration - (11.4) Acquisition and related expenses 1.2 6.1 Other one-time items 1.8 6.2 Credit Adjusted EBITDA $ 217.0 $ 203.5 Net Income Margin 12.7% 10.5% Credit Adjusted EBITDA Margin 34.1% 31.4% Three months ended September 30, Unaudited
