Form 8-K Furnished February 20, 2025

Exhibit 99.1, page 1

2. We note that you present Adjusted EBITDA margin without presenting a comparative GAAP measure. Please revise future filings to present the GAAP measure, which appears to be net income (loss) margin, with equal or greater prominence. Refer to Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-K and Questions 102.10(a) of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations on Non-GAAP Financial Measures ("Non- GAAP C&DI's").

Company Response :

The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff's comment and in future filings where the Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures, it will disclose and discuss the applicable most directly comparable GAAP financial measures with equal or greater prominence, in accordance with Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-K and Question 102.10(a) of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations on Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

3. For each non-GAAP measure, please ensure you present the most directly comparable GAAP measure with equal or greater prominence. Refer to instruction 2 to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-K, and Question 102.10(a)-(b) of the Non-GAAP C&DI's. We note that you present free cash flow in the introductory bullets without referencing operating cash flows, that you discuss Adjusted EBITDA on pages 1 and 2 prior to a discussion of GAAP net income (loss), and that certain non-GAAP reconciliations begin with a non-GAAP measure, such as total Segment EBITDA, instead of the GAAP measure. Apply this comment to the earnings conference call slides included in your earnings releases, including your disclosures on slides 4, 8-12, and 14-15.

Company Response :

The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff's comment and in future filings, earnings releases and earnings conference call slides where the Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures, it will disclose and discuss the applicable most directly comparable GAAP financial measures with equal or greater prominence, in accordance with instruction 2 to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K, Item 10(e)(1)(i)(A) of Regulation S-K and Question 102.10(a) of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations on Non-GAAP Financial Measures. In addition, the Company will ensure that all non-GAAP reconciliations begin with the GAAP measure.

4. We note that you present Segment EBITDA on a consolidated and segment basis. Although Segment EBITDA on a segment basis is a disclosure required by ASC 280 in the notes to the financial statements, the presentation on a consolidated basis outside of the segment footnote is a non-GAAP measure. Please revise to properly identify consolidated Segment EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure and ensure that you provide all related disclosures required by Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K.

Company Response :

The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff's comment. The Company will no longer include Segment EBITDA on a consolidated basis outside of the notes to the financial statements.
