About the Presentation of Supplemental Non-GAAPFinancial Information

In this Current Report on Form 8-K,the Company has supplemented its financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP with non-GAAPnet loss.

Non-GAAPnet loss is the Company's net loss, adjusted to exclude net loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, interest expense, net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of earnout receivable, contingent purchase compensation expense, foreign currency impact and other, acquisition and due diligence costs, (gain) loss on asset disposition, severance and executive transition costs, other non-recurringitems, and non-GAAPnet loss from discontinued operations.

Reconciliations of non-GAAPnet loss to the most closely comparable GAAP financial measure, including a breakdown of the excluded items noted above, is included below. Non-GAAPnet loss is not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or any other financial measures so calculated and presented, nor as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.

The Company has provided this non-GAAPfinancial measure because management believes such information to be an important supplemental measure of performance that is commonly used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in its industry. Management also uses this information internally for forecasting, budgeting and measuring annual bonus compensation targets for executive personnel, including the Company's named executive officers. Non-GAAPnet income (loss) provides management and investors consistency and comparability with the Company's past financial performance and facilitates period-to-periodcomparisons of operations, as it eliminates the effect of items that are often unrelated to overall operating performance. Other companies (including the Company's competitors) may define this non-GAAPfinancial measure differently. This non-GAAPfinancial measure may not be indicative of the historical operating results of Veritone or predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider this non-GAAPfinancial measure in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported in accordance with GAAP.
