PAR TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION ANNOUNCES 2020 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
New Brink Bookings in Q3 = 1,181 a 45% sequential increase from Q2
Total Company Revenues increase 20.7% vs. prior year
New Hartford, NY- November 6, 2020 -- PAR Technology Corporation (NYSE: PAR) ("PAR Technology" or the "Company") today announced its results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Summary of Fiscal 2020 Third Quarter
Revenues were reported at $54.8 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $45.4 million for the same period in 2019, a 20.7% increase. $7.2 million of the growth was driven by inorganic growth related to our Drive-Thru and Restaurant Magic acquisitions, that was partially offset by our divestiture of SureCheck.
GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2020 was $3.7 million, or $0.20 loss per share, a decrease from GAAP net loss of $5.9 million, or $0.36 loss per share reported for the same period in 2019.
Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2020 was $2.7 million, or $0.15 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.21 loss per share, for the same period in 2019.

Summary of Year-to-Date Financial Results
Revenues were reported at $155.3 million for the first nine months of 2020, compared to $134.3 million for the same period in 2019, a 15.6% increase. $16.3 million of the growth was driven by inorganic growth related to our Drive-Thru and Restaurant Magic acquisitions, that was partially offset by our divestiture of SureCheck.
GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2020 was $23.6 million, or $1.30 loss per share, an increase from the GAAP net loss of $9.7 million, or $0.61 loss per share reported for the same period in 2019.
Non-GAAP net loss for the first nine months of 2020 was $12.1 million, or $0.67 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP net loss of $7.1 million or $0.44 loss per share, for the same period in 2019.

A reconciliation and description of non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP financial measures are included in the tables at the end of this press release.

“Our results in Q3 highlight the resiliency of the restaurant industry and importantly the acceleration in cloud adoption. Q3 bookings were the most we’ve seen in almost three years and highlights how quickly enterprise restaurants are reacting during the Covid-19 pandemic. As the world stabilizes, we expect activations and bookings to continue to grow,” commented Savneet Singh, PAR Technology’s CEO & President. “Alongside our strong software bookings were solid results in our hardware



business. We saw strong demand for our drive thru product line and a recovery in our core terminal business. By design, our Company provides business critical technology to the most resilient sector of the restaurant industry. Our customers rely on PAR to consistently provide the products and services they require to serve their customers and improve their operations.”

Mr. Singh continued, “We are confident our Company is navigating current market conditions from a position of strength. Our recent capital raise in September gives us the strength and flexibility to increase market share by both organic and inorganic means. The pandemic continues to highlight the strength of our cloud solutions and further validates the subscription economy within enterprise restaurants. PAR remains well positioned to achieve our strategic goals, even during the most challenging environment for restaurants in history.”

-- Brink ARR at end of Q3 '20 totaled $22.9 million - an increase of $5.0 million, 29% from end of Q3 '19

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP.  However, non-GAAP adjusted financial measures, as set forth in the reconciliation table above, are provided because management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the results of the Company's continuing operations and believes this information provides investors supplemental insight into underlying business trends and operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company's results of operations are impacted by certain non-recurring charges, including equity based compensation, acquisition and divestiture related expenditures, expense related to the China/Singapore Investigation, and other non-recurring charges that may not be indicative of the Company’s financial performance. Management believes that adjusting its costs of sales, operating expenses, operating loss, net loss and diluted loss per share to remove non-recurring charges, provides a useful perspective with respect to the Company's operating results and provides supplemental information to both management and investors by removing items that are difficult to predict and are often unanticipated. While the Company believes the adjustments provide a useful comparison, the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.
