Forward-looking statements notice
Refer to the "Information About Forward-Looking Statements" section of this release. (growth is on a year-over-year basis) Q1 2026 FY 2026 Room Nights Growth 5% - 7% Gross Bookings Growth 14% - 16% Low Double Digits Constant Currency Gross Bookings Growth 7% - 9% High Single Digits Revenue Growth (1) 14% - 16% Low Double Digits Constant Currency Revenue Growth (1) 7% - 9% High Single Digits Adjusted EBITDA Growth (2)(3)(4) 10% - 14% Faster than Revenue Growth Adjusted EPS Growth (2)(3)(5) Mid-teens (1) Revenue Growth includes a benefit of about 7% in Q1 2026 and of about 2% for FY 2026 due to foreign currency exchange rates. (2) We are not able to provide a reconciliation between forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and GAAP Net income and Adjusted EPS and GAAP EPS as we cannot, without unreasonable effort, forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP Net Income and GAAP EPS and predict certain components of such reconciliation as they arise from events in future periods. This is due to the unpredictable nature of these reconciling items, which would require an unreasonable effort to forecast, and would result in a large range of projected values that would not be meaningful to investors. See Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-K. (3) Excludes certain costs expected to be incurred related to the Transformation Program.
Refer to the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this release. (4) Changes in foreign currency exchange rates are expected to impact our reported growth rates for Adjusted EBITDA by about one percentage point more than they are expected to impact Revenue Growth for the first quarter and by about half of a percentage point less than they are expected to impact Revenue Growth for the full year. (5) Changes in foreign currency exchange rates are expected to impact our reported growth rate for Adjusted EPS by about half of a percentage point less than they are expected to impact Revenue Growth for the full year. 3 Outlook

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include all normal and recurring adjustments that management of the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operating results. To supplement the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Net income, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and Free cashflow (Net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures). The Company also uses information on (i) the impact of the adjustments required to compute Adjusted Net income and Adjusted EBITDA on Sales and other expenses, Personnel expenses, General and administrative expenses, Depreciation and amortization expenses, Impairment expense, Transformation costs, Interest expense, Interest and dividend income, Other income (expense), net, and Income tax expense, as reported in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, as applicable, and (ii) Adjusted fixed operating expenses, which is Total operating expenses, as reported in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, adjusted to exclude (a) certain operating expenses which are generally more likely to vary based on changes in business volumes and (b) amounts which are excluded in the computation of Adjusted EBITDA.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a basis to evaluate performance and set targets for employee compensation programs. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful for analysts and investors to evaluate the Company's ongoing operating performance because they facilitate comparison of the Company's results for the current period and projected next-period results to those of prior periods and to those of its competitors (though other companies may calculate similar non-GAAP financial measures differently from those calculated by the Company).
These non-GAAP financial measures, in particular Adjusted Net income, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free cashflow, are not intended to represent funds available for Booking Holdings' discretionary use and are not intended to represent or to be used as a substitute for Operating income, Net income, or Net cash provided by operating activities as measured under GAAP. The items excluded from these non-GAAP measures, but included in the calculation of their closest GAAP equivalent, are significant components of the Company's consolidated statements of operations and cashflows and must be considered in performing a comprehensive assessment of overall financial performance. Reconciliations of (i) Net income to Adjusted Net income and Adjusted EPS, (ii) Net income to Adjusted EBITDA, (iii) Net cash provided by operating activities to Free cashflow, and (iv) Total operating expenses to Adjusted fixed operating expenses are detailed in the Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information and Additional Information on the Impact of Non-GAAP Adjustments sections below, including the impact of the adjustments to the respective line item in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
We evaluate certain operating and financial measures on both an as-reported and constant currency basis. We calculate constant currency measures based on the predominant transactional currency in each country, converting our current-year period results in currencies other than U.S. Dollars using the corresponding prior-year period monthly average exchange rates. 7 Non-GAAP Financial Measures
