- Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted Net Profit for the year and adding back depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets), income tax expense and interest income and expenses, net.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the same year.

Non-IFRS Measures
To supplement the Group's consolidated financial statements that are presented in accordance with the IFRS, the Group also uses Adjusted Net Profit (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted Net Profit margin (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) as additional financial measures, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS.
"Store-level EBITDA" is defined as store-level operating profit for the year and adding back depreciation of plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets in store-level. "Store-level EBITDA margin" is calculated by dividing Store-level EBITDA by revenue for the same year. "Adjusted Net Profit" is defined as profit for the year and adding back share-based compensation. "Adjusted Net Profit margin" is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Profit by revenue for the same year. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as Adjusted Net Profit for the year and adding back depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets), income tax expense and interest income and expenses, net. "Adjusted EBITDA margin" is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the same year.
The Group believes that these non-IFRS measures facilitate comparisons of operating performance from period to period and company to company. The Group believes that these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Group's results of operations in the same manner as they help the Group's management. However, the Group's presentation of Adjusted Net Profit (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted Net Profit margin (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The use of such non-IFRS measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and shareholders and potential investors of the Company should not consider them in isolation from, or as substitute for analysis of, the Group's results of operations or financial condition as reported under IFRS.
