(Throughout this release, results are for 3Q22and are compared to 3Q21 unless otherwise noted.All ‘per share‘ results are per diluted share. Please see the final page of this release for important supplemental information on asterisked metrics.)
Key business unit revenue and related metrics:
National Retail Solutions (NRS) recurring revenue* increased 101.9% to $10.0 million. Active terminals increased by 1,400 sequentially to approximately 17,900, and payment processing accounts increased by 1,200 sequentially to approximately 9,200.
net2phone subscription revenue** increased 42.0% to $14.2 million. Seats served increased by 22,000 sequentially, including nearly 7,000 through the previously announced acquisition of a CCaaS provider, to approximately 279,000.
Money Transfer revenue increased 51.5% to $15.5 million. Transaction volumes increased by 27.1% to 2.4 million, with solid growth in both direct to consumer and retail channels.
Consolidated revenue decreased 12.2% to $328 million from $374 million. Direct cost of revenue decreased 17.7% to $248 million from $301 million.

Non-GAAP EPS*** was $0.23 compared to $0.47.
REMARKS BY SHMUEL JONAS, CEO
“Each of our three high-margin, high-growth businesses had a very strong third quarter, helping us to again achieve solid levels of consolidated income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA, consistent with our results from the first two quarters of our fiscal year.
“NRS added nearly 1,400 net POS terminals and 1,200 net payment processing accounts during the third quarter, maintaining the accelerated rate of acquisitions achieved in the second quarter. NRS recurring revenue increased 102% year-over-year, keyed by strong merchant service and advertising sales. Looking ahead, we expect that NRS will sustain robust, high-margin growth in the coming quarters. In particular, we expect advertising and data offerings to benefit from both long-term trends such as the increasing allocation of advertising budgets to out-of-home venues, as well as from seasonal tailwinds including increased political advertising heading into the second half of the calendar year.
“net2phone’s strategic focus on the SMB and small enterprise markets within North and South America, efficient execution, and acquisition of CCaaS provider Integra all contributed to solid growth in the third quarter. Subscription revenue increased 42% year-over-year due primarily to the addition of approximately 22,000 seats during the quarter –including almost 7,000 seats from the Integra acquisition. Seat growth was again strongest in our Latin American markets although our U.S. business performed nearly as well. We will begin selling our CCaaS offering in North America in the current – fourth – quarter of our fiscal year and expect its expansion to gradually become a key driver of seat growth and ARPU expansion.
“BOSS Money, our international remittance business, increased revenue 51% to $15.5 million driven both by a 27% year-over-year increase in transaction volumes and a comparably robust increase in revenue per transaction – including both transfer fees and revenue derived from foreign exchange. We continue to build out our disbursement networks, particularly in Africa and the Caribbean, and to fine-tune our direct-to-consumer pricing strategies to capture additional revenue and margins. BOSS Money also continues to benefit from its integration into the BOSS Revolution Calling app last October, providing another example of our ability to generate growth by deploying our offerings across multiple channels and platforms.
“In our Traditional Communications segment, revenue decreased by $59.9 million or 17% to $285.9 million. The surge in demand for paid voice that we experienced during the COVID pandemic is now retreating and exacerbating the impact of the underlying declines in retail calling and wholesale carrier services. Our Mobile Top-Up business underperformed this quarter but we are investing in technology, marketing, and sales to improve its performance.
Because Traditional Communications’ lost revenue overall was skewed to lower margin sales, income from operations from this segment decreased $3.0 million year-over-year to $17.4 million. On a consolidated basis, income from operations decreased $0.5 million to $13.3 million while Adjusted EBITDA*** increased $0.1 million to $18.0 million. We expect that as our growth businesses continue to expand, our consolidated bottom-line results in the coming quarters will increasingly reflect their contributions.”

NRSTake-Aways:
As of April 30, 2022, NRS’ POS terminal network comprised approximately 17,900 active POS terminals, an increase of 37% compared to a year earlier, and approximately 9,200 payment processing accounts, a year over year increase of 89%.
NRS revenue increased 78.3% to $11.4 million from $6.4 million and recurring revenue* increased by 101.9% to $10.0 million from $4.9 million. The increases were driven by the expansion of the NRS POS and payment processing networks and increased merchant services and digital-out-of-home (DOOH) advertising & data sales.
NRS monthly average recurring revenue per terminal**** increased to $193 from $131.
During 3Q22, NRS announced a partnership with OnPoint, a leading provider of scan data programs for the independent and small chain C-store market. Through the partnership, OnPoint will promote the NRS POS system and payment processing service to prospective C-store clients.
BOSSMoney Take-Aways:
Transaction volumes increased 27% to 2.37 million from 1.86 million in the year-ago period.
Revenue increased 51.5% to $15.5 million from $10.3 million.
BOSS Money continued to expand its global payments network including announced expansions of service to Ethiopia and Jamaica.
net2phone-UCaaS
In 3Q22 and 3Q21, the net2phone-UCaaS segment accounted for 4.7% and 3.1% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.
net2phone-UCaaS Take–aways:
Total seats served increased 33% to 279,000 at April 30, 2022 including approximately 7,000 seats added through the Integra CCaaS acquisition, from 210,000 a year earlier.
Subscription revenue** increased 42.0% to $14.2 million from $10.0 million, led by strong growth in both net2phone’s South and North American regions and the addition of Integra’s CCaaS revenue for the final two months of the quarter.
During 3Q22, IDT announced a postponement of the planned spin-off of net2phone, in light of market conditions.
Traditional Communications
In 3Q22 and 3Q21, the Traditional Communications segment accounted for 87.1% and 92.5% of IDT’s consolidated revenue, respectively.
Traditional Communications Take–Aways:
Mobile Top-Up revenue decreased 12.6% to $115.9 million from $132.6 million.
BOSS Revolution Calling revenue decreased 17.6% to $91.8 million from $111.4 million, while minutes-of-use decreased 21.2% compared to the year-ago quarter. The decreases reflect the erosion of the surge in demand for voice calls that began with the onset of the COVID pandemic, on top of the underlying decline of the paid voice communications market.
IDT Global’s carrier services revenue decreased 24.3% to $67.1 million from $88.6 million reflecting a 24.2% decrease in minutes-of-use as the wholesale paid voice market contracted at an accelerated rate.
NOTES ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Consolidated results for all periods presented include corporate overhead. Corporate G&A expense increased to $1.8 million in 3Q22 from $1.7 million in 3Q21.
As of April 30, 2022, IDT held $136.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, debt securities, and current equity investments. Current assets totaled $371.1 million and current liabilities totaled $315.4 million.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 and 2021
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), IDT also disclosed, for 3Q22, 2Q22, and 3Q21, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share (EPS), all of which are non-GAAP measures. Generally, a non-GAAP measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
IDT’s measure of non-GAAP net income starts with net income in accordance with GAAP and adds severance expense, stock-based compensation, and other operating expense, and deducts other operating gains. These additions and subtractions are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 periods.
IDT’s measure of non-GAAP EPS is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by the diluted weighted-average shares.
Management believes that IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS are measures which provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and non-routine gains and losses that may not be indicative of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as a relevant indicator of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision making. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS to evaluate operating performance in relation to IDT’s competitors. Disclosure of these financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, IDT has historically reported similar financial measures and believes such measures are commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance, therefore the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting.
Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the GAAP measures income (loss) from operations and net income, on a segment and/or consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to the segments’ and IDT’s historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.
While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or capitalized in prior periods. IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, which is exclusive of depreciation and amortization, is a useful indicator of its current performance.
Severance expense is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS. Severance expense is reflective of decisions made by management in each period regarding the aspects of IDT’s and its segments’ businesses to be focused on in light of changing market realities and other factors. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of IDT’s core and continuing operations.
Other operating (expense) gain, net, which is a component of income (loss) from operations, is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS. Other operating (expense) gain, net includes legal fees net of insurance claims related to Straight Path Communications Inc.’s stockholders’ putative class action and derivative complaint, expense for the indemnification of a net2phone cable telephony customer related to patent infringement claims brought against the customer, a gain from the write-off of a contingent consideration liability, expense for other legal and regulatory matters, and a gain from the sale of IDT’s rights under a class action lawsuit. From time-to-time, IDT may have gains or incur costs related to non-routine legal and regulatory matters, however, these various items generally do not occur each quarter. IDT believes the gain and losses from these non-routine matters are not components of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results.
Stock-based compensation recognized by IDT and other companies may not be comparable because of the variety of types of awards as well as the various valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from IDT’s calculation of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results per share of IDT’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for IDT for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance.
In 3Q21, due to continued and projected profitability, IDT was able to release a portion of its valuation allowance that was recorded against its deferred tax assets. This income tax benefit was excluded from IDT’s non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS because it was only indirectly related to the current results of IDT’s core operation
s.
Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income (loss) from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income, basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, IDT’s measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Following are reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which are, (a) for Adjusted EBITDA, income (loss) from operations for IDT’s reportable segments and net income for IDT on a consolidated basis, (b) for non-GAAP net income, net income, and (c) for non-GAAP EPS, diluted earnings per share.

Explanation of Key Performance Metrics
NRS’ Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is a financial metric. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is calculated by dividing NRS’ recurring revenue by the average number of active POS terminals during the period. NRS’ recurring revenue is NRS’ revenue in accordance with GAAP excluding revenue from POS terminal sales. The average number of active POS terminals is calculated by adding the beginning and ending number of active POS terminals during the period and dividing by two. NRS’ recurring revenue divided by the average number of active POS terminals is divided by three when the period is a fiscal quarter. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is useful for comparisons of NRS’ revenue per customer to prior periods and to competitors and others in the market, as well as for forecasting future revenue from the customer base.
net2phone-UCaaS’ cloud communications offerings are priced on a per-seat basis, with customers paying based on the number of users in their organization.

NEWARK, NJ, March 07, 2022 — IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT), a global provider of fintech, cloud communications, and traditional communications services, today reported results for the second quarter of its 2022 fiscal year, the three months ended January 31, 2022.
SECOND QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2022(2Q22) HIGHLIGHTS
(Throughout this release, results are for 2Q22and are compared to 2Q21 unless otherwise noted.Earningsper share (EPS), loss per share, Non-GAAP EPS*, andNon-GAAP loss per share* are per diluted share. Please see the final page of this release for important supplemental information on asterisked metrics and results.)
Consolidated revenue decreased 0.8% to $337 million from $340 million. Key business unit revenue included:
National Retail Solutions (NRS) revenue increased 103.6% to $10.6 million.
net2phone subscription revenue increased 32.3% to $12.5 million.**
Money Transfer revenue decreased 6.2% to $12.5 million due to transitory foreign exchange market conditions that materially improved revenue in 2Q21. Absent that impact, Money Transfer revenue would have increased by 48%.
Within the Traditional Communications segment, Mobile Top-Up revenue increased 20.4% to $116.2 million while segment revenue decreased 3.2% to $300.4 million. Segment revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue increased 6.2% to $52.8 million.
Consolidated revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue increased 12.9% to $80 million from $71 million, the tenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year increases.
Consolidated income from operations increased 6.9% to $13.8 million from $12.9 million.
Adjusted EBITDA* increased 14.3% to $18.7 million from $16.3 million. Adjusted EBITDA* less capital expenditures (CAPEX)*** increased 16.3% to $14.0 million from $12.1 million.
EPS was $0.28 compared to EPS of $0.51. Non-GAAP EPS* was $0.33 compared to Non-GAAP EPS* $0.49.
Following the quarter close, net2phone acquired Integra CCS, a rapidly growing contact-center-as-a-service (CCaaS) provider operating in the Americas and Europe, for a consideration of up to $15 million in cash and stock inclusive of earnouts.
REMARKS BY SHMUEL JONAS, CEO
“Our second quarter financial results were highlighted by year over year improvements in gross profit, income from operations and Adjusted EBITDA driven by the continued expansion of our growth businesses.
“NRS accelerated the growth of its customer base, adding nearly 1400 net POS activations and 1200 NRS Pay accounts during the quarter. As of January 31st, NRS served approximately 16,500 active POS terminals and 8,000 NRS Pay accounts. NRS revenue increased 104% from the year-ago quarter to $10.6 million, led by triple-digit gains from advertising and merchant services revenue. We are still in the early stages of NRS’ development in terms of our addressable markets, new service offerings, and monetization of our current offerings.
“At our net2phone-UCaaS segment, subscription revenue increased 32% year-over-year to $12.5 million. Growth was strongest in our Latin American markets, particularly in Mexico where we continue to find success with larger customers. Last week, we closed on the acquisition of Integra, a fast-growing CCaaS provider. We will incorporate Integra’s CCaaS service with net2phone’s UCaaS solutions to create a higher value, integrated offering that we expect will drive growth — and significantly enhance net2phone’s unit economics — as we become more competitive upmarket.
“We are now focused on completing the previously announced spin-off of net2phone to our stockholders and are working to complete it by the end of the current fiscal year on July 31st.
“Money Transfer transactions increased 21% year-over-year while revenue decreased 6% to $12.5 million. On an “apples-to-apples” basis, adjusting for the impact of transitory foreign exchange that improved 2Q21 results, 2Q22 transactions would have increased 36% and revenue would have increased by 48% from the year-ago quarter.
“Although our Traditional Communications segment’s revenue decreased 3.2% year-over-year to $300 million, revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue increased 6% to $53 million, led by the continued expansion of our Mobile Top-Up business.”

As of January 31, 2022, NRS’ POS terminal network comprised approximately 16,500 active POS terminals, an increase of 37% compared to a year earlier, and approximately 8,000 payment processing accounts, an increase of 105%.
NRS revenue increased 104% to $
10.6 million from $5.2 million and recurring revenue increased by 118% to $9.0 million from $4.1 million. The increases were driven by the expansion of the NRS POS and payment processing networks and increased merchant services and digital-out-of-home (DOOH) advertising & data sales.
NRS monthly average recurring revenue per terminal increased to $190 from $114.
During 2Q22, NRS launched its eWIC processing service, enabling independent retailers to accept and process WIC benefits in electronic format.
Money Transfer Take-Aways:
Transactions increased 21% to 2.20 million from 1.83 million in the year-ago period.
Revenue decreased 6% to $12.5 million from $13.3 million in 2Q21. Excluding the impact of previously disclosed foreign exchange market conditions that positively affected comparative 2Q21results, transactions would have increased 36% and revenue would have increased 48%.
BOSS Money continued to expand its global payments network by opening remittance services to Jamaica, Togo, and Sierra Leone. BOSS Money now offers remittances from the US to 50 countries via 1,250 payers at over 328,000 locations worldwide.
net2phone-UCaaS
In 2Q22 and 2Q21, the net2phone-UCaaS segment accounted for 4.0% and 3.2% of IDT’s consolidated revenue and 14.0% and 12.5% of IDT’s consolidated revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue, respectively.
net2phone-UCaaS Takeaways:
Total seats served increased 35% to 258,000 at January 31, 2022, from 190,000 a year earlier.
Subscription revenue*** increased 32% to $12.5 million from $9.5 million, led by strong growth in both net2phone’s South and North American regions.
Subscription revenue less direct cost of revenue as a percentage of subscription revenue decreased slightly to 85.5% from 86.0% in 2Q21.
During 2Q22, net2phone announced a strategic partnership with Avant, a leading distributor for next generation technologies.
Traditional Communications
In 2Q22 and 2Q21, the Traditional Communications segment accounted for 89.1% and 91.4% of IDT’s consolidated revenue and 66.2% and 70.4% of IDT’s consolidated revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue, respectively.
Traditional Communications Takeaways:
Mobile Top-Up revenue increased 20.4% to $116.2 million from $96.6 million, primarily as a result of an increase in B2B sales resulting from a wholesale market opportunity that began during 3Q21 and has subsequently narrowed considerably. Sales via the direct-to-consumer channel continued to increase, partially offset by a decrease in sales via the retail channel.
BOSS Revolution Calling revenue decreased 12.2% to $100.0 million from $113.9 million while minutes-of-use decreased 15.5% compared to the year-ago quarter. The rates of decline were higher than in recent quarters as the increased demand associated with the COVID pandemic diminished.
IDT Global carrier services revenue decreased 16.1% to $73.1 million from $87.2 million reflecting a 30.3% decrease in minutes-of-use partially offset by an increase in revenue per minute.
Traditional Communications revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue increased 6.2% to $52.8 million from $49.8 million reflecting the increase in mobile top-up revenue and increased margins from all three of Traditional Communications’ primary business lines.
Traditional Communications’ Adjusted EBITDA* less CAPEX** increased 9.2% to $20.3 million from $18.6 million.
NOTES ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Consolidated results for all periods presented include corporate overhead. Corporate G&A expense increased to $2.3 million in 2Q22 from $2.0 million in 2Q21.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 and 2021
In
addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), IDT also disclosed, for 2Q22, 1Q21, and 2Q21, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP earnings per diluted share (EPS), and non-GAAP loss per share, all of which are non-GAAP measures. Generally, a non-GAAP measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
IDT’s measure of Adjusted EBITDA consists of revenue less direct cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expense. Another way of calculating Adjusted EBITDA is to start with income (loss) from operations, add depreciation and amortization, severance expense, and other operating expense, and deduct other operating gains.
IDT’s measure of non-GAAP net income (loss) starts with net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP and adds severance expense, stock-based compensation, and other operating expense, and deducts other operating gains.
These additions and subtractions are non-cash and/or non-routine items in the relevant fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 periods.
IDT’s measures of non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP loss per share are calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income (loss) by the diluted weighted-average shares.
Management believes that IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share are measures which provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain expenses and non-routine gains and losses that may not be indicative of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as a relevant indicator of core operational strengths in its financial and operational decision making. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share to evaluate operating performance in relation to IDT’s competitors. Disclosure of these financial measures may be useful to investors in evaluating performance and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. In addition, IDT has historically reported similar financial measures and believes such measures are commonly used by readers of financial information in assessing performance, therefore the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency in financial reporting.
Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the GAAP measures income (loss) from operations and net income (loss), on a segment and/or consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to the segments’ and IDT’s historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis upon which management is compensated.
While depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, these expenses primarily represent the non-cash current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or capitalized in prior periods. IDT’s Adjusted EBITDA, which is exclusive of depreciation and amortization, is a useful indicator of its current performance.
Severance expense is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share. Severance expense is reflective of decisions made by management in each period regarding the aspects of IDT’s and its segments’ businesses to be focused on in light of changing market realities and other factors. While there may be similar charges in other periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of IDT’s core and continuing operations.
Other operating (expense) gain, net, which is a component of income (loss) from operations, is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share. Other operating (expense) gain, net includes legal fees net of insurance claims related to Straight Path Communications Inc.’s stockholders’ putative class action and derivative complaint, expense for the indemnification of a net2phone cable telephony customer related to patent infringement claims brought against the customer, a gain from the write-off of a contingent consideration liability, expense for other legal and regulatory matters, and a gain from the sale of IDT’s rights under a class action lawsuit. From time-to-time, IDT may have gains or incur costs related to non-routine legal and regulatory matters, however, these various items generally do not occur each quarter. IDT believes the gain and losses from these non-routine matters are not components of IDT’s or the relevant segment’s core operating results.
The other calculation of Adjusted EBITDA consists of revenue less direct cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expense. As the other excluded items are not reflected in this calculation, they are excluded automatically and there is no need to make additional adjustments. This calculation results in the same Adjusted EBITDA amount and its utility and significance is as explained above.
Stock-based compensation recognized by IDT and other companies may not be comparable because of the variety of types of awards as well as the various valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation is excluded from IDT’s calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share because management believes this allows investors to make more meaningful comparisons of the operating results per share of IDT’s core business with the results of other companies. However, stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for IDT for the foreseeable future and an important part of employees’ compensation that impacts their performance.
Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, income (loss) from operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income (loss), basic and diluted earnings per share or other measures of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, IDT’s measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Following are reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP EPS, and non-GAAP loss per share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which are, (a) for Adjusted EBITDA, income (loss) from operations for IDT’s reportable segments and net income (loss) for IDT on a consolidated basis, (b) for non-GAAP net income (loss), net income (loss), and (c) for non-GAAP EPS and non-GAAP loss per share, diluted earnings (loss) per share.

Revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue as a percentage of revenue is a financial metric that measures changes in our revenue relative to changes in direct cost of revenue during the same period. Revenue and direct cost of revenue in this metric are from IDT’s consolidated statements of operations in accordance with GAAP. Revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue as a percentage of revenue is a ratio in which revenue-less-direct-cost-of-revenue is the numerator and revenue is the denominator. It is useful for monitoring trends in the generation of revenue as well as for evaluating the net contribution of IDT’s revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX is also a financial metric, which is calculated by deriving Adjusted EBITDA as described above and subtracting capital expenditures in accordance with GAAP as reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX to evaluate the level of capital investment needed to support operations, and as a reasonable proxy for the cash generated by IDT’s businesses. Because IDT’s capital expenditures reflect an allocation of capital for longer-term growth, IDT seeks to strike an appropriate balance between near-term and long-term financial performance as reflected in Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX. IDT’s measurement of Adjusted EBITDA less CAPEX may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is also a financial metric. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is calculated by dividing NRS’ revenue in accordance with GAAP during a period, excluding revenue from POS terminal sales, by the average number of active POS terminals during the period. The result is divided by three when the period is a fiscal quarter. The average number of active POS terminals is calc
ulated by adding the beginning and ending number of active POS terminals during the period and dividing by two. Monthly Average Recurring Revenue per Terminal is useful for comparisons of NRS’ revenue per customer to prior periods and to competitors and others in the market, as well as for forecasting future revenue from the customer base.
Supplemental Information
* Throughout this release, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Non-GAAP earnings (loss) per share are Non-GAAP measures intended to provide useful information that supplements IDT’s or the relevant segment’s results in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures earlier in this release for an explanation of these terms and their respective reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
** net2phone subscription revenue is a key performance metric and no longer includes revenue generated by a legacy SIP trunking offering in Brazil.
