Management Commentary
"This quarter we expanded our customer engagements in the advanced logic and memory segments, where AI continues to drive the need for higher transistor performance. Our ground-breaking nano-scale diffusion blocking work for gate-all-around transistors has generated interest not only with the GAA foundries, but also with designers of next generation memory solutions" said Scott Bibaud, president and CEO of Atomera. "While work in our traditional business is taking off, we also took an important step toward commercializing our GaN-on-silicon solutions by signing a joint development agreement with IQE, a leading supplier of compound semiconductor wafers."

Note about Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the unaudited results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in this press release, Atomera presents adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is determined by taking net loss and eliminating the impacts of interest, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Our definition of adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to the definitions of similarly-titled measures used by other companies. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure, viewed in addition to and not in lieu of our reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors by providing a more focused measure of operating results. This metric is used as part of the Company's internal reporting to evaluate its operations and the performance of senior management. A table reconciling this measure to the comparable GAAP measure is available in the accompanying financial tables below.
