BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Foundation for Growth
- Continued growth of RMR – The end-of-period RMR balance was $382 million, representing a 4% increase over the prior year period. Approximately 75% of total Consumer and Small Business (CSB) and Commercial revenue was generated from this durable recurring revenue.
- Maintained record customer retention and improved revenue payback – With strong customer satisfaction, trailing 12-month gross customer revenue attrition was 12.5%, a 20-basis-point improvement versus the prior year period, and revenue payback ended the second quarter of 2023 at 1.9 years, reflecting a 0.3x year-over-year improvement.
- Upgrade of corporate credit rating – S&P Global Ratings upgraded ADT’s corporate credit rating to ‘BB-’ from ‘B+’ with a stable rating outlook in recognition of the Company’s resilient business model and continued progress towards debt reduction goals.
Innovative Offerings
- ADT Self Setup and enhanced Google offerings – As part of ADT’s partnership with Google, the Company nationally sells, installs, and services a full suite of Google Nest products which seamlessly integrate the security and protection of ADT with the helpful convenience of Google Nest. During the second quarter of 2023, the attachment rate for the Nest Doorbell was approximately 50% and Nest cameras are currently realizing an 8% increase in cameras per home, helping drive a 17% increase in residential installation revenue per unit as compared to the prior year period.
- ADT Home Security Program for State Farm customers to expand – ADT announced that its program for State Farm customers plans to expand to up to 13 states by year end 2023. In all program states, new and existing State Farm homeowners customers can participate in the ADT Home Security Program to receive ADT home security products and professional monitoring services at a reduced cost.
- ADT Solar to offer lease and PPA financing options through SunPower Financial – ADT Solar entered into an agreement in principle with SunPower Financial to offer lease and power purchase agreement (PPA) financing options to new ADT Solar customers seeking greater flexibility and accessibility in their rooftop solar financing. SunPower Financial is expected to become the exclusive lessor for ADT Solar customers seeking an alternative to outright purchases beginning this year.
Unrivaled Safety
- False alarm reductions – In the second quarter of 2023, ADT’s patented SMART Monitoring innovations reduced false alarms by more than 50%, eliminating over 770,000 unnecessary dispatches by local first responders – conserving community resources and reducing environmental impact.
Premium Experience
- ADT Virtual Tour App – ADT launched its new Virtual Tour App, a mobile-based tool utilizing augmented reality to enable ADT Solutions Advisors to help customers visualize how ADT and Google smart home security products can protect and connect their homes. Virtual storytelling offers an individualized experience and helps customers see how our products would look in their home through augmented reality.
Progress on our ESG Journey
- Baltimore nonprofit Requity partnership – Through our long-term partnership with Requity, a Baltimore nonprofit that provides vocational education and workforce development, the company is forging a path to potential ADT employment for certain Requity students through mentoring and hosting skills workshops. ADT hosted a workshop for Requity students this spring focused on interview skills and troubleshooting.
2023 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK
The Company is revising its financial guidance for 2023. Total revenue is now projected to be lower than prior guidance due to the Solar outlook from low installation volume and efficiency headwinds, partially offset by CSB and Commercial performance. The Company is maintaining previously issued guidance on Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps), and Adjusted Free Cash Flow as we expect M&S revenue and improved operating margins within CSB and Commercial to largely offset the profitability and cash flow impact of Solar underperformance.
As a result of the announced agreement to divest the commercial business, the commercial business is expected to be reported as discontinued operations beginning in the third quarter of 2023. Full year Commercial results are included in guidance, pending the close of the transaction.
(in millions) Prior Guidance Updated Guidance Total Revenue $6,600 - $6,850 $6,300 - $6,500 Adjusted EBITDA $2,525 - $2,625 $2,525 - $2,625 Adjusted EPS $0.30 - $0.40 $0.30 - $0.40 Adjusted Free Cash Flow
(including interest rate swaps)$600 - $700 $600 - $700 Adjusted Free Cash Flow $525 - $625 $525 - $625 The Company is not providing forward-looking guidance for U.S. GAAP financial measures other than Total Revenue or a quantitative reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures for its non-GAAP financial guidance shown above because the GAAP measures cannot be reliably estimated and the reconciliations cannot be performed without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items that the Company cannot reasonably predict at this time but which may be material. Please see "Non-GAAP Measures" for additional information.

Monitoring and related services (M&S) revenue increased year-over-year resulting primarily from higher average pricing. Security installation, product, and other increased year-over-year resulting primarily from an increase in the volume of transactions under the customer-owned equipment ownership model and higher amortization of deferred subscriber acquisition revenue.
CSB Adjusted EBITDA increased 11% to $644 million in the second quarter compared to the prior year period. These improvements were driven by higher M&S revenue from our record RMR base and improved operating margins. The improvement in operating margins benefited from execution on our cost reduction initiatives, proceeds from a legal settlement, and receipts from Google related to our joint marketing efforts.
Commercial Three Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2023 2022 $ Change % Change Monitoring and related services $ 144 $ 134 $ 9 7 % Security installation, product, and other 204 163 41 25 % Total Commercial revenue $ 348 $ 297 $ 50 17 % Adjusted EBITDA $ 45 $ 31 $ 14 43 % Adjusted EBITDA Margin (as a % of Total Commercial Revenue) 13 % 11 % Total Commercial revenue was $348 million for the second quarter, up 17% versus prior year. Improvements were driven primarily by an increase in installation volumes as well as increases in product and service prices.
Commercial Adjusted EBITDA increased 43% to $45 million in the second quarter. These improvements were driven primarily by higher revenue and improved cost performance, which delivered EBITDA margin of 13%.
Solar Three Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2023 2022 $ Change % Change Solar installation, product, and other $ 78 $ 215 $ (138 ) (64)% Total Solar revenue $ 78 $ 215 $ (138 ) (64)% Adjusted EBITDA $ (37) $ (15) $ (23 ) (153)% Adjusted EBITDA Margin (as a % of Total Solar Revenue) (48) % (7) % Note: M&S revenue is not applicable to the Solar segment. Total Solar revenue for the second quarter was $78 million, down 64% versus the second quarter of last year. This performance was driven by lower installations and weaker sales performance.
Solar Adjusted EBITDA was a $37 million loss for the second quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by the lower revenue discussed above.
During the second quarter, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $181 million associated with the Solar segment. This charge is a result of current macroeconomic conditions as well as Solar’s continued underperformance of operating results relative to expectations in the second quarter of 2023. This goodwill impairment charge is excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
BALANCE SHEET, CASH, AND LIQUIDITY Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2023 2022 $ Change % Change 2023 2022 $ Change % Change Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities $ 493 $ 515 $ (22 ) (4) % $ 799 $ 823 $ (23 ) (3) % Adjusted Free Cash Flow $ 201 $ 185 $ 16 8 % $ 200 $ 143 $ 57 40 % Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) $ 221 $ 174 $ 47 27 % $ 237 $ 118 $ 118 100 % Net cash provided by operating activities during the second quarter of 2023 was $493 million, down 4% versus the second quarter of last year, and Adjusted Free Cash Flow including the benefit of interest rate swaps increased by $47 million versus the prior year period. During the second quarter, the company had higher M&S revenue, enhanced operating margins, and lower net subscriber investments versus the prior year period. These improvements, which benefited from execution on our cost reduction initiatives, proceeds from a legal settlement, and receipts from Google related to our joint marketing efforts, were partially offset by the performance of our Solar business and higher cash interest expense (including the impact of interest rate swaps).
The company returned $32 million to shareholders in dividends during the second quarter of 2023.
On May 2, 2023, the Company redeemed $150 million of the $750 million ADT Notes due 2024 using cash on hand. On June 15, 2023, the Company used proceeds from its Incremental Term Loan A and cash on hand to redeem the remaining approximately $100 million of the ADT Notes due 2023.

(1 ) All variances are year-over-year unless otherwise noted. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps), Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per share (or, Adjusted EPS), and Net Leverage Ratio 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 such as 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 ) Amounts may not sum due to rounding. Conference Call

ADT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NON-GAAP MEASURESADT sometimes uses information (“non-GAAP financial measures”) that is derived from the 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 our management believes these measures are useful to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations, additional purposes, if any, for which our management uses the non-GAAP financial measures, 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 following 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. In addition, computations of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
With regard to our financial guidance for 2023, the Company is not providing a quantitative reconciliation for forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to net income (loss), and Adjusted Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including interest rate swaps) to net cash provided by operating activities, which are the most directly comparable respective GAAP measures. These GAAP measures cannot be reliably predicted or estimated without unreasonable effort due to their dependence on future uncertainties, such as the adjustment of items used in the following reconciliations. Additionally, information about other adjusting items that is currently not available to the Company could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on its future GAAP financial results.

U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
(Unaudited)Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Reconciliation to GAAP Net Income or 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; (ix) adjustments related to acquisitions, such as contingent consideration and purchase accounting adjustments, or dispositions; (x) impairment charges; and (xi) other income/gain or expense/loss items such as changes in fair value of certain financial instruments or financing and consent fees.
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 Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue.

_______________________(1) During 2023, includes restructuring costs primarily related to certain facility exits, as well as integration and third-party costs related to the strategic optimization of the Solar business operations following the ADT Solar acquisition. (2) During 2023, represents impairment charges associated with our Solar reporting unit. (3) During 2022, primarily represents amortization of the customer backlog intangible asset related to the ADT Solar Acquisition, which was fully amortized as of March 2022. (4) During 2022, primarily includes a gain on sale of a business of $10 million in Q2 2022. Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps, and Reconciliation to GAAP Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities
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. Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps reflects Adjusted Free Cash Flow plus net cash settlements on interest rate swaps presented within net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.
We believe the presentations of these non-GAAP measures are appropriate to provide investors with useful information about our ability to repay debt, make other investments, and pay dividends. 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. Further, Adjusted Free Cash Flow including interest rate swaps is a useful measure of Adjusted Free Cash Flow inclusive of all cash interest.
There are material limitations to using these non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures 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. These non-GAAP measures are not intended to represent residual cash flow for discretionary expenditures since debt repayment requirements and other non-discretionary expenditures are not deducted.

_______________________(1) During 2023, primarily includes ADT Solar integration costs and restructuring activities. (2) During 2022, primarily includes acquisition costs related to the ADT Solar Acquisition. (3) Includes net settlements related to interest rate swaps with an other-than-insignificant financing element at inception, which is presented within net cash provided by (used in) financing activities. Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share (or, Adjusted EPS), and Reconciliations to GAAP Net Income (Loss) and GAAP Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share
We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) 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 changes in fair value of certain financial instruments, 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 GAAP net loss, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock does not include the assumed conversion of Class B Common Stock and other potential shares, such as share-based compensation awards, 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 (loss) and related per share amounts (the most comparable GAAP measures).

_______________________(1) Refer to the footnotes to the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss). (2) Represents the change in the fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as cash flow hedges. (3) Represents the statutory rate, inclusive of the federal statutory rate, which reflects the tax impact of our filing posture in combined, unitary, and separate reporting states. Our state tax profile varies by state. (4) Refer to the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K for further discussion regarding the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of common stock. (5) Calculated as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of Common Stock. Leverage Ratios and Reconciliation to GAAP Debt to Net Income (Loss) Leverage Ratio
Net Leverage Ratio is calculated as the ratio of net debt to last twelve months (“LTM”) Adjusted EBITDA. Net debt is calculated as total debt excluding the Receivables Facility, including capital leases, minus cash and cash equivalents. Refer to the discussion on Adjusted EBITDA for descriptions of the differences between Adjusted EBITDA and net income (loss), which is the most comparable GAAP measure. We believe Net Leverage Ratio is a useful measure of the Company's credit position and progress towards leverage targets. There are material limitations to using Net Leverage Ratio as the Company may not always be able to use cash to repay debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
