NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, organic revenue, organic revenue growth, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) and adjusted net cash provided by operating activities (“adjusted free cash flow”) are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered substitutes for GAAP measures, including commissions and fees (for organic revenue and organic revenue growth), net income (loss) (for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin), net income (loss) attributable to Baldwin (for adjusted net income), diluted earnings (loss) per share (for adjusted diluted EPS) or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities (for adjusted free cash flow), which we consider to be the most directly comparable GAAP measures. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for commissions and fees, net income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Baldwin, diluted earnings (loss) per share, net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, and accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration and certain items of income and expense, including share-based compensation expense, transaction-related partnership and integration expenses, severance, and certain non-recurring items, including those related to raising capital. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of income and expenses that do not relate to business performance, and that the presentation of this measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA margin is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of income and expenses that do not relate to business performance, and that the presentation of this measure enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA margin is helpful in measuring profitability of operations on a consolidated level.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin have important limitations as analytical tools. For example, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin:

•do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future;

•do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;

•do not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;

•do not reflect share-based compensation expense and other non-cash charges; and

•exclude certain tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.

We calculate organic revenue based on commissions and fees for the relevant period by excluding (i) the first twelve months of commissions and fees generated from new partners and (ii) commissions and fees from divestitures. Organic revenue growth is the change in organic revenue period-to-period, with prior period results adjusted to (i) include commissions and fees that were excluded from organic revenue in the prior period because the relevant partners had not yet reached the twelve-month owned mark, but which have reached the twelve-month owned mark in the current period, and (ii) exclude commissions and fees related to divestitures from organic revenue. For example, commissions and fees from a partner acquired on June 1, 2024 are excluded from organic revenue for 2024. However, after June 1, 2025, results from June 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024 for such partners are compared to results from June 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 for purposes of calculating organic revenue growth in 2025. Organic revenue growth is a key metric used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. We believe that organic revenue and organic revenue growth are appropriate measures of operating performance as they allow investors to measure, analyze and compare growth in a meaningful and consistent manner.

We define adjusted net income as net income (loss) attributable to Baldwin adjusted for depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of contingent consideration and certain items of income and expense, including share-based compensation expense, transaction-related partnership and integration expenses, severance, and certain non-recurring costs that, in the opinion of management, significantly affect the period-over-period assessment of operating results, and the related tax effect of those adjustments. We believe that adjusted net income is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of income and expenses that do not relate to business performance.

Adjusted diluted EPS measures our per share earnings excluding certain expenses as discussed above for adjusted net income and assuming all shares of Class B common stock were exchanged for Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. Adjusted diluted EPS is calculated as adjusted net income divided by adjusted diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. We believe adjusted diluted EPS is useful to investors because it enables them to better evaluate per share operating performance across reporting periods.

We calculate adjusted free cash flow because we incur substantial earnout liabilities in conjunction with our partnership strategy. Adjusted free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities excluding the impact of: (i) the payment of contingent earnout consideration in excess of purchase price accrual, and (ii) the payment of colleague earnout incentives. We believe that adjusted free cash flow is an important measure of our ability to generate cash from our business operations.

Beginning January 1, 2025, the Company is presenting its fiduciary assets and liabilities separately on the consolidated balance sheets. Previously, these assets and liabilities were comingled on the consolidated balance sheets and the net change in cash balances held to remit to insurance carriers was presented as cash flows from operating activities. The net change in fiduciary cash is now presented as cash flows from financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. As a result, the change in premiums, commissions and fees receivable, net and the change in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities are no longer excluded from net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in calculating adjusted free cash flow for the 2025 reporting period and comparable prior periods. However, because the change in fiduciary receivables and fiduciary liabilities previously was combined with the change in premiums, commissions and fees receivable, net and the change in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated statements of cash flows, this change in presentation has resulted in a change in our previously reported adjusted free cash flow for previous periods.

Reconciliation of guidance regarding adjusted EBITDA, organic revenue growth and adjusted diluted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity, and low visibility with respect to commissions and fees, net income (loss), diluted earnings (loss) per share or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of items that would be expected to impact these GAAP financial measures for these periods. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the non-GAAP measures.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

The following table reconciles adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to net income (loss), which we consider to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure:
