Management Commentary

"The fourth quarter of 2023 for WidePoint was a great way to conclude an incredible year of growth and execution," said Company CEO, Jin Kang. "We continue to achieve year-over-year growth, as we hit our revenue guidance for 2023 and ended the quarter free cash flow positive. In a year filled with external macroeconomic challenges, our sales and marketing team and strategy has proven to be resilient and effective, with the fourth quarter alone witnessing over $70.3 million in contractual actions and ending the year with a federal contract backlog of $359 million. The success seen on this front has prompted us to allocate additional resources and senior staffing to continue securing higher-margin contracts, setting a promising trajectory for fiscal year 2024. With the credit facility under our belt plus a strong balance sheet, we have ample dry powder that primes us to further activate our organic growth strategy, while giving us the optionality to explore synergistic and accretive M&A opportunities."

Adjusted EBITDA
$ 423,258 $ 548,824 $ 791,289 $ 1,062,982

WidePoint uses Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental non-GAAP measure of performance. WidePoint defines EBITDA as net income excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) provision for or benefit from income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) Impairment charges. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain amounts included in EBITDA. WidePoint is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA in reliance on the "unreasonable efforts" exception for forward-looking non-GAAP measures set forth in SEC rules because certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated without unreasonable effort and expense. In this regard, WidePoint does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income may vary significantly based on actual events, WidePoint is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected GAAP net income being materially less than is indicated by estimated adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP).
