These metrics are used to evaluate core operating performance by removing non-cash amortization effects - Adjusted Gross Profit is Total revenues minus cost of revenues, before amortization of intangible assets included in costs of revenues41 - Adjusted Gross Profit Margin is Adjusted Gross Profit divided by Total Revenues41 Adjusted Gross Profit and Margin (In thousands) | (In thousands) | Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 | Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 | Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 | Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Total revenues | $23,264 | $29,246 | $50,775 | $61,358 | | Costs of revenues, including amortization of capitalized software development costs and acquired developed technology | (4,948) | (6,863) | (11,932) | (14,107) | | Gross Profit | $18,316 | $22,383 | $38,843 | $47,251 | | Gross Profit Margin | 79% | 77% | 77% | 77% | | Gross Profit | 18,316 | 22,383 | 38,843 | 47,251 | | Amortization of intangible assets | 1,779 | 2,507 | 5,311 | 4,935 | | Adjusted Gross Profit | $20,095 | $24,890 | $44,154 | $52,186 | | Adjusted Gross Profit Margin | 86% | 85% | 87% | 85% | EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Margin EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.
