This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or buy, nor the solicitation of an offer to sell or buy, any securities referred to herein. Any solicitation or offer will only be made pursuant to an offering memorandum and disclosure statement and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including Non-GAAP results, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow (use) and unlevered free cash flow (use), net debt, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and constant currency results. The company calculates constant currency by translating the prior year results at current year exchange rates. The company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating and financial performance and to compare such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. Also, the company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures in making operational and financial decisions and in establishing operational goals. The company also believes providing these Non-GAAP financial measures to investors, as a supplement to GAAP financial measures, helps investors evaluate our operating and financial performance and trends in our business, consistent with how management evaluates such performance and trends. The company also believes these Non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in comparing its performance to the performance of other companies, although its Non-GAAP financial measures are specific to the company and the Non-GAAP financial measures of other companies may not be calculated in the same manner. We provide EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be useful measures for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. We consider free cash flow (use) to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that, after the purchase of property and equipment and capitalized software development, changes in cash of assets held for sale and the use of cash for M&A and the legal settlement for impaired cloud implementation costs, and excluding the use/proceeds of cash for the settlement of foreign exchange derivative instruments, can be used for debt servicing, strategic opportunities, including investing in the business, making strategic acquisitions, strengthening the balance sheet and paying dividends. Unlevered free cash flow (use) provides incremental visibility into the company's liquidity by excluding cash used for interest payments from free cash flow (use). For more information, please refer to the section, "Notes for Non-GAAP Measures."

• the company’s ability to successfully convert its backlog into sales, including our ability to overcome supply chain and liquidity challenges;

• the ultimate outcome of the appraisal proceedings initiated in connection with the implementation of the Domination and Profit Loss Transfer Agreement with the former Diebold Nixdorf AG (which was dismissed in the company’s favor at the lower court level in May 2022) and the merger/squeeze-out;

• the impact of market and economic conditions, including the bankruptcies, restructuring or consolidations of financial institutions, which could reduce the company’s customer base and/or adversely affect its customers' ability to make capital expenditures, as well as adversely impact the availability and cost of credit;

• the impact of competitive pressures, including pricing pressures and technological developments;

• changes in political, economic or other factors such as currency exchange rates, inflation rates (including the impact of possible currency devaluations in countries experiencing high inflation rates), recessionary or expansive trends, hostilities or conflicts (including the war between Russia and Ukraine and the tension between the U.S. and China), disruption in energy supply, taxes and regulations and laws affecting the worldwide business in each of the company's operations;

• the company's ability to maintain effective internal controls;

• unanticipated litigation, claims or assessments, as well as the outcome/impact of any current/pending litigation, claims or assessments;

• the effect of changes in law and regulations or the manner of enforcement in the U.S. and internationally and the company’s ability to comply with applicable laws and regulations; and

• and other factors included in the company’s filings with the SEC, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

You should consider these factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements.

Notes for Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company utilizes certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including Non-GAAP results,  EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings per share, free cash flow (use) and net debt.

1. Profit and loss summary ($ in millions):

Three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to three months ended June 30, 2022

Six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to six months ended June 30, 2022

Restructuring and transition - personnel expenses incurred during 2023 and 2022 relate to the cost savings initiative focused on operational simplification and automation of processes, and include severance and payroll of employees transitioning out of the organization. Costs of third-parties assisting with the execution of the program are categorized as Transformation - other. Refinancing related costs incurred in the first six months of 2023 are advisor fees for the Company's ongoing restructuring process to optimize the capital structure that do not qualify for capitalization. Held for sale non-core European retail business amounts are the results of a majority-owned business that the company is committed to sell, that are excluded from the metrics used to evaluate the core business and assign resources. Amortization of Wincor Nixdorf purchase accounting intangible assets (non-cash) expense is taken against the intangible assets established in purchase accounting as management believes that this is useful information. Legal/deal expense primarily relates to third-party expenses and fees paid by the company for M&A activity. Crisis in Ukraine costs primarily relate to humanitarian efforts for our employees and their families, as well as expenses incurred in connection with the economic sanctions levied and steps taken to-date to liquidate our Russian distribution subsidiary. North America ERP impairment was the result of the decision made by management to indefinitely suspend ERP implementation. Inventory charge for legacy products relates to excess and obsolete inventory as a result of a decision to streamline the Company's product portfolio. Russia/Ukraine impairment relates to the charges taken against trade receivables from customers in the region that are doubtful to be collected, inventory specific to customers in the region and various other assets not recoverable.

2. Reconciliation of GAAP net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP measures) ($ in millions):

The company excluded the amortization of Wincor Nixdorf purchase accounting intangible assets from non-routine expenses, net in the Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation. Deferred financing fee amortization is included in interest expense; as a result, the company excluded from the depreciation and amortization caption. Depreciation and amortization expense was excluded from Held for sale non-core European retail business. Amortization of cloud-based software implementation represents amortization of capitalized implementation costs related to cloud-based software arrangements that are included in selling and administrative expenses but are not considered GAAP depreciation and amortization. Reorganization items, net includes all income, expenses, gains, or losses that are incurred or realized as a result of the bankruptcy proceedings. Additionally, $0.8 of restructuring-related share-based compensation activity was excluded from restructuring and transformation expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022

These are Non-GAAP financial measures used by management to enhance the understanding of our operating results. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are key measures we use to evaluate our operational performance. We provide EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful measures for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income as a measure of operating results or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity in accordance with GAAP.

3. Reconciliation of GAAP net loss and net loss attributable to Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated to Non-GAAP net income (loss) and net income (loss) attributable to Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated, and diluted GAAP EPS to Non-GAAP EPS ($ in millions, except per share data):

Refer to Note 1 for additional information on non-routine (income) expense for the periods presented.

4. Net debt is calculated as follows ($ in millions):

We believe that cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on the balance sheet that net cash against outstanding debt, presented as net debt above, is a meaningful measure.
