Contractual Revenue Backlog Definition:
Contractual revenue backlog is measured on a forward looking 36 month snapshot view monthly, and, is generated by each of the Company’s Managed Services, Global Mobility Cloud, and Application Exchange & Developer’s Platform customers. The Pareteum multi-year Software-as-a-Service agreements include service establishment and implementation fees, guaranteed minimum monthly recurring fees, as well as contractually scheduled subscribers, in some cases including subscriber usage, during the term of the agreement, and, their resulting monthly recurring revenue. There can be no assurances that we reach the total revenue backlog. The contract revenue backlog (“Non-GAAP”) assumes timing of revenue recognition that may vary from actual results. The contract revenue backlog is a Non-GAAP management reporting measure and differs from any revenue or earnings outlook that may be provided from time to time by other means. This Non-GAAP measurement is not recognized under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Accordingly, investors are cautioned about using or relying on these measures as alternatives to recognized GAAP measures. The Company’s methods of calculating these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
