Third Quarter 2021 Results Versus Prior Year
Total revenue increased 1% year over year to $1,317 million. The revenue increase was driven primarily by a $53 million, or 5% increase in monitoring and related services revenue resulting from the Company’s subscriber growth initiatives and an improvement in average pricing. Higher M&S revenue was partially offset by lower installation revenue, reflecting the non-cash impact of equipment ownership model changes.
Net loss of $109 million improved from $113 million in the prior year, primarily due to strong M&S revenue and lower interest expense, offset by higher radio conversion costs, which are also reflected in the $0.02 improvement in diluted net loss per share of common stock. Diluted net loss per share of Class B common stock was $(0.13) compared to $(0.07) a year ago.
Adjusted Diluted Net Loss per share (previously named diluted net loss per share before special items) improved compared to the prior year, reflecting improvements in Adjusted Net Loss (previously named net loss before special items) of $54 million compared to $58 million in the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA was $554 million, down from $564 million in the prior year, reflecting the non-cash impact of the ownership model changes and technology investments. These items were partially offset by strong monitoring and related services revenue performance, as well as improved Commercial results.

Year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities increased 16% year over year to $1,155 million primarily due to the impact of ownership model changes, the non-recurrence of a 2020 outflow related to the Defenders acquisition, and lower cash interest, partially offset by higher net payments for radio conversion costs. Year-to-date net cash used in investing activities increased versus the comparable period in 2020 reflecting higher customer acquisition costs and lower cash paid for business acquisitions. The change in year-to-date cash flows from financing activities was primarily due to the Company’s issuance of Class B common stock in 2020.
2

Year-to-date Adjusted Free Cash Flow of $289 million was down compared to the comparable period in 2020 primarily due to higher subscriber acquisition costs associated with significant growth in customers and 19% gross RMR additions growth year-to-date.
ACQUISITION OF SUNPRO SOLAR
The Company has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Sunpro Solar, a leading provider of residential solar installation, for approximately $825 million,(2) comprised of $160 million cash and approximately 77.8 million shares of ADT common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The completion of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. The transaction is expected to close by year-end 2021.
Sunpro Solar will be branded ADT Solar, giving ADT an industry-leading position and instant brand recognition in the rapidly growing residential solar market. The transaction brings numerous strategic and financial benefits, including:
•Immediate brand and market leadership position: The highly fragmented solar industry does not have a clear brand leader, much less one with ADT’s trusted reputation.
•Grow market share quickly: ADT’s trusted brand, national footprint, and reach to 6 million customers should enable strong, efficient solar customer lead generation and acquisition relative to competitors.
•Expands ADT’s presence in the home: Creates opportunity to offer consumers a single provider for the protected, connected, and powered home.
•Earnings and cash flow positive: Transaction expected to be positive to EBITDA and free cash flow immediately and accretive to EPS within the first twelve months, prior to any synergy realization
•Improves cash flow profile: Minimal capital expenditures, stable customer acquisition costs, and significant upfront cash generation.
•Limited balance sheet impact: ADT will assume approximately $20 million in vehicle loans and leases; all other existing Sunpro Solar debt will be retired using the cash proceeds from the acquisition.

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
ADT is a trusted consumer brand, driving profitable growth through innovative technology, strategic partnerships, and premium products and service. Key highlights of the Company’s performance include:
•Continued Growth of RMR – During the quarter, Gross RMR additions increased to $15.5 million, an increase of 7% from the prior year. As of the end of the quarter, RMR totaled $356 million, representing a 4% year over year increase. Approximately 80% of the Company’s total revenues come from this durable recurring revenue.
•Radio Conversions Progress – The Company continued to make significant progress in replacing the 3G and Code-Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”) cellular equipment used in many of its security systems. During 2021, the number of customer systems to be converted was reduced by 1.4 million with approximately 480 thousand customer systems remaining to be converted as of September 30, 2021.
3

•Proactively improving capital structure – The Company completed transactions during the quarter to proactively improve its balance sheet. In July, the Company issued $1 billion in new notes due in 2029 and in August used the proceeds to retire its $1 billion of notes due in 2022. Combined with other refinancing transactions in 2019 and 2020, the Company has flattened near-term maturities, improved liquidity, and reduced annual cash interest by more than $100 million.
•Cash dividend declared – Effective November 9, 2021, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.035 per share to holders of the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock of record as of December 16, 2021. This dividend will be paid on January 4, 2022.
2021 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK (3)(4)
The Company remains on track to meet its 2021 guidance and is narrowing the ranges provided earlier in the year.

____________________________
(1)
All variances are year-over-year unless otherwise noted. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. Refer to the “Non-GAAP Measures” section for the definitions of these terms and reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures. The operating metrics Gross Customer Revenue Attrition, Unit Count, RMR, Gross RMR Additions, and Revenue Payback are approximated as there may be variations to reported results in each period due to certain adjustments the Company might make in connection with the integration over several periods of acquired companies that calculated these metrics differently, or otherwise, including periodic reassessments and refinements in the ordinary course of business. These refinements, for example, may include changes due to systems conversion or historical methodology differences in legacy systems.
(2)Based on a 20-day average stock price.
(3)
Guidance excludes 3G and Code-Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”) radio conversion costs. There are many variables involved in those costs, including retention levels, system upgrade rates, revenue opportunities, cost-sharing opportunities, and possible technology solutions. The Company estimates the range of net costs for this replacement program at $260 million to $290 million, of which ADT has incurred $249 million from inception through September 30, 2021. The Company incurred $52 million during the third quarter of 2021. These amounts and ranges are net of any revenue the Company collects from customers associated with these radio replacements and cellular network conversions.

Due to the Company’s residential equipment ownership model transition, the Company’s guidance includes estimated non-cash reductions in reported revenue ($350 million to $400 million) and Adjusted EBITDA ($80 million to $100 million).
(4)
The Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of its updated financial outlook for Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow, or any expected impact from the acquisition of Sunpro Solar, to net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, which are their respective corresponding GAAP measures, because these GAAP measures that are excluded from the Company’s non-GAAP financial outlook are difficult to reliably predict or estimate without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as the adjustments or items discussed below under the heading “Non-GAAP Measures.” Additionally, information that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results.

Impact on Non-GAAP Measures
The Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of the impact that the acquisition of Sunpro Solar will have on the Company's EBITDA and free cash flow to net income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities, which are their respective corresponding GAAP measures, because the impact of the acquisition of Sunpro Solar on these GAAP measures is difficult to reliably predict or estimate without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as special items. Additionally, information that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
ADT sometimes uses information (“non-GAAP financial measures”) that is derived from the condensed consolidated financial statements, but that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Under SEC rules, non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
The following information includes definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures used in this release, reasons we believe these measures are useful, and limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. The limitations of non-GAAP financial measures are best addressed by considering these measures in conjunction with the appropriate GAAP measures.
The Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of non-GAAP measures used in its financial outlook (including a quantitative reconciliation of the impact that the acquisition of Sunpro Solar will have on the Company’s EBITDA and free cash flow) as we are not able to reconcile forward looking non-GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the adjusting items such as those used in the reconciliations below will not be known until the end of the period and could be significant.

U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
(Unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Reconciliation to GAAP Net Loss
We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors about our operating profitability adjusted for certain non-cash items, non-routine items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future, as well as other items that are not core to our operations. Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA provides a meaningful measure of operating profitability because we use it for evaluating our business performance, making budgeting decisions, and comparing our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss adjusted for (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets; (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions; (v) share-based compensation expense; (vi) merger, restructuring, integration, and other; (vii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (viii) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue earned; and (ix) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as impairment charges, financing and consent fees, or acquisition-related adjustments.
There are material limitations to using Adjusted EBITDA as it does not reflect certain significant items which directly affect our net income or loss (the most comparable GAAP measure).
The Adjusted EBITDA discussion above is also applicable to its margin measure, which is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of monitoring and related services revenue.

U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS (continued)
(Unaudited)
Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, and Reconciliation to GAAP Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
We believe the presentation of Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are appropriate to provide investors with useful information about our ability to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. In addition, we believe the presentation of Adjusted Free Cash Flow is also a useful measure of our cash flow attributable to our normal business activities, inclusive of the net cash flows associated with the acquisition of subscribers, as well as our ability to repay other debt, make other investments, and pay dividends.
We define Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less cash outlays related to capital expenditures. We define capital expenditures to include accounts purchased through our network of authorized dealers or third parties outside of our authorized dealer network, subscriber system asset expenditures, and purchases of property and equipment. These items are subtracted from cash flows from operating activities because they represent long-term investments that are required for normal business activities.
We define Adjusted Free Cash Flow as Free Cash Flow adjusted for net cash flows related to (i) net proceeds from our consumer receivables facility; (ii) financing and consent fees; (iii) restructuring and integration; (iv) integration-related capital expenditures; (v) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue collected; and (vi) other payments or receipts that may mask our operating results or business trends.
Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow adjust for cash items that are ultimately within management’s discretion to direct, and therefore, may imply that there is less or more cash available than the most comparable GAAP measure. Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share, and Reconciliations to GAAP Net Loss and GAAP Diluted Net Loss per Share
Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) merger, restructuring, integration, and other; (ii) losses on extinguishment of debt; (iii) radio conversion costs net of any related incremental revenue earned; (iv) share-based compensation expense; (v) unrealized gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts not designated as hedges; (vi) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as impairment charges, financing and consent fees, or acquisition-related adjustments; and (vii) the impact these adjusted items have on taxes.
Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share is Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock. In periods of net loss, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock does not include the assumed conversion of Class B common stock to shares of common stock as the results would be anti-dilutive.
We believe Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share are benchmarks used by analysts and investors who follow the industry for comparison of its performance with other companies in the industry, although our measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures reported by other companies. There are material limitations to using these measures as they do not reflect certain significant items which directly affect our net income or loss and related per share amounts (the most comparable GAAP measures).
During the third quarter of 2021, Net Income (Loss) before special items was renamed Adjusted Net Income (Loss), and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share before special items was renamed Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share. There has been no change to the calculation of these measures.
