INVESTOR DAY 2023 OUR VISION Displace Fossil Fuels Bioenergy is part of an all - in strategy to reduce carbon emissions and limit dependence on fossil fuels. Wood pellets directly replace fossil fuels, providing customers around the world with a renewable feedstock that improves the environmental profile of energy generation. Grow More Trees The key to keeping forests as forests is strong demand for forest products. We create a market for sustainable low - value wood that encourages good forest stewardship and creates incentives for forest landowners to replant and keep their land as forestland. Fight Climate Change The world cannot afford to delay taking decisive climate action. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has mapped out numerous pathways toward a sustainable future, and many rely on wood bioenergy. 5

NON - GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
INVESTOR DAY 2023 NON - GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES Non - GAAP Financial Measures In addition to presenting our financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United Sta tes (“GAAP”), we use adjusted net income, adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable cash flow to measure our financial performance. In addition, as a result of our Simplification Transaction, we were required to recast our historical financial results in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, any results presented on a non - recast basis constitute a Non - GAAP measure. The estimated incremental adjusted EBITDA that can be expected from Enviva’s development of new wood pellet plant capacity is ba sed on an internal financial analysis of the anticipated benefit from the incremental production capacity and cost savings we expect to realize. Such estimates are based on numerous assumptions a nd are inherently uncertain and subject to significant business, economic, financial, regulatory, and competitive risks that could cause actual results and amounts to differ materially from suc h estimates. A reconciliation of the estimated incremental adjusted EBITDA expected to be generated by a new wood pellet production plant constructed by Enviva to the closest GAAP financial measure, n et income (loss), is not provided because net income (loss) expected to be generated is not available without unreasonable effort, in part because the amount of estimated incremental interest expen se related to the financing of such a plant and depreciation is not available at this time. 63 Adjusted Net (Loss) Income We define adjusted net (loss) income excluding acquisition and integration costs and other, early retirement of debt obligati on, Support Payments, Executive separation, effects of COVID - 19, and the war in Ukraine. We believe that adjusted net (loss) income enhances investors’ ability to compare the past financial performance of our underlying operations with our current performance separate from certain items of gain or loss that we characterize as unrepresentative of our ongoing operations. Adjusted Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin per Metric Ton We define adjusted gross margin as gross margin excluding loss on disposal of assets and impairment of assets, non - cash equity - b ased compensation and other expense, depreciation and amortization, changes in unrealized derivative instruments related to hedged items, acquisition and integration costs and other, Support Pa yme nts, effects of COVID - 19 and the war in Ukraine. We define adjusted gross margin per metric ton as adjusted gross margin per metric ton of wood pellets sold. We believe adjusted gross margin and adju ste d gross margin per metric ton are meaningful measures because they compare our revenue - generating activities to our cost of goods sold for a view of profitability and performance on a total - dolla r and a per - metric ton basis. Adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross margin per metric ton primarily will be affected by our ability to meet targeted production volumes and to control direct and indire ct costs associated with procurement and delivery of wood fiber to our wood pellet production plants and our production and distribution of wood pellets. Our estimated AGM/MT for full - year 2023 and our estimated AGM for the full - year 2023 are based on internal financial analyses. Such estimates are based on numerous assumptions and are inherently uncertain and subject to significant business, economic, financial, regulatory, and competitive risks that could cause actual re sults and amounts to differ materially from such estimates. Reconciliations of the estimated AGM/MT and the estimated AGM for the first quarter of 2023 and full - year 2023 to the closest GAAP financial measur e, gross margin, are not provided because gross margin expected to be generated is not available without unreasonable effort.
INVESTOR DAY 2023 NON - GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES , (cont.) 64 Distributable Cash Flow We define distributable cash flow as adjusted EBITDA less cash income tax expenses, interest expense net of amortization of d ebt issuance costs, debt premium, and original issue discounts, non - cash interest expense from Deferred Gross Margin Transactions, and maintenance capital expenditure s. We use distributable cash flow as a performance metric to compare our cash - generating performance from period to period and to compare the cash - generating performan ce for specific periods to the cash dividends (if any) that are expected to be paid to our shareholders. We do not rely on distributable cash flow as a liquidity me asure. Our estimated distributable cash flow for the full - year 2023 is based on internal financial analyses. Such estimates are based o n numerous assumptions and are inherently uncertain and subject to significant business, economic, financial, regulatory, and competitive risks that could c aus e actual results and amounts to differ materially from such estimates. A reconciliation of the estimated distributable cash flow for the full - year 2023 to the closest GAAP financial measure, net income (loss), is not provided because net income (loss) expected to be generated is not available without unreasonable effort, in part because th e amount of estimated incremental interest expense related to financing and depreciation is not available at this time. Adjusted EBITDA We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income tax expense (be nefit), early retirement of debt obligation, non - cash equity - based compensation and other expense, loss on disposal of assets and impairment of assets, changes i n unrealized derivative instruments related to hedged items, acquisition and integration costs and other, Executive separation, effects of COVID - 19 and the war in U kraine, and Support Payments. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure used by our management and other users of our financial statements, such as investors, comme rci al banks, and research analysts, to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods or capital structure. Our adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2024, 2025 and 2026 is based on internal financial analyses. Such estimates are based on nu mer ous assumptions and are inherently uncertain and subject to significant business, economic, financial, regulatory, and competitive risks that could cause actual re sults and amounts to differ materially from such estimates. A reconciliation of the adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2024, 2025 and 2026 to the closest GAAP financial measur e, net income (loss), is not provided because net income (loss) expected to be generated is not available without unreasonable effort, in part because the amount o f e stimated incremental interest expense related to financing and depreciation is not available at this time.
INVESTOR DAY 2023 NON - GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES , (cont.) Limitations of Non - GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, and distributable c ash flow, as well as our Non - Recast Presentation are not financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that the presentation of these non - GAAP fi nancial measures provides useful information to investors in assessing our financial condition and results of operations. Our non - GAAP financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Each of these non - GAAP financial measures has important limitations as an anal ytical tool because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider adjusted n et income (loss), adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin per metric ton, adjusted EBITDA, or distributable cash flow, or our Non - Recast Presentation, in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our definitions of these non - GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, ther eby diminishing their utility. 65
I N V E S T O R D A Y 2 0 2 3 ▪ Enviva has multiple long-term contracts with a large European customer for the sale of approximately 2.8 million MT from 4Q22 through 2026 ▪ In 4Q22, Enviva entered into agreements with this same customer to purchase approximately 1.8 million MT of wood pellets between 2023 and 2025 ▪ Under GAAP, the 4Q22 purchase agreements constituted a contract modification of the existing sales contracts. Because the scope of the modification resulted in a net decrease in future sales volumes to this customer, Enviva was required to account for the modification as if it terminated its existing sales contracts and created a new, single contract. Accordingly, the amount of consideration to be received for the sale of approximately 2.8 million MT will be allocated based on an average sales price per MT to the remaining sales during the life of the deemed new contract ▪ Additionally, the 4Q22 agreements to purchase approximately 1.8 million MT of wood pellets during 2023 - 2025 constitute, for GAAP purposes, a repurchase agreement. Under GAAP, Enviva is required to account for the purchase agreements as a financing arrangement ▪ As a result, approximately 450,000 MT of wood pellets sold to this customer in 4Q22 are reflected as a financing transaction in our consolidated financial statements as opposed to product sales: ▪ Gross sales proceeds of $175 million are presented as financing liabilities on our balance sheet ▪ Cost of goods sold of approximately $95 million, inclusive of depreciation and amortization of approximately $9 million, are presented as inventory ▪ In addition, non-cash interest expenses of approximately $10 million have been recorded, reflecting the difference between the future purchase price of the approximately 1.8 million MT and the average sale price per MT over approximately 1.8 million MT ▪ $102 million of cash was received during 4Q22 from this customer, and is included in net cash provided by financing activities as opposed to cash provided by operating activities; the remaining $73 million of cash related to the $175 million of gross sales proceeds was collected in January and February 2023 ▪ Had Enviva not accounted for the transactions with the customer as financing transactions, 2022 gross margin (excluding depreciation and amortization) would have been higher by $88.9 million, and interest expense lower by $10 million ▪ In addition, net cash provided by operating activities would have been higher by approximately $102 million D E F E R R E D G R O S S M A R G I N T R A N S A C T I O N S ( “ D G M T ” ) Enviva expects the Deferred Gross Margin Transactions to increase gross margin by $88.9 million over the remaining duration of the purchase agreements with our customer As such, we expect approximately 50% of such increase will be reported in 2024 and 50% in 2025 We expect adjusted EBITDA to increase in the same manner as gross margin for 2024 and 2025 NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION, (cont.)
