This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and
by the Company relating to market size and growth and other industry data. These data involve a
number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such
estimates. The Company has not independently verified the statistical and other industry data
generated by independent parties and contained in this presentation and, accordingly, it cannot
guarantee their accuracy or completeness. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of its
future performance and the future performance of the markets in which the Company competes are
necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors. These and other
factors could cause results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates
made by the independent parties and by PagerDuty.
This presentation also includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial
measures are in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to measures of financial
performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use
of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other
companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to
evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of the Company’s non-GAAP
financial measures as tools for comparison. The Company has provided a reconciliation of those
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, which is available in the appendix.
For further information with respect to PagerDuty, we refer you to our most recent Annual Report on
Form 10-K filed with the SEC. In addition, we are subject to the information and reporting

reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. These periodic reports, current reports,
