Management Commentary
"We delivered a strong second quarter characterized by excellent operating performance as well as seven consecutive quarters of double-digit year-over-year revenue growth and four consecutive quarters of year-over-year EBITDA margin expansion," commented David Hagan, Chief Executive Officer of Boingo Wireless. "Both revenue and adjusted EBITDA exceeded the mid-point of our guidance range. The investments we have made in building out high-density wireless networks over the past few years, particularly for our military service offering, have been instrumental in fueling this momentum. We expect to begin generating positive free cash flow as the business scales and these capital deployments near completion in the second half of the year."
Mr. Hagan continued, "I am thrilled to announce that we have launched Wi-Fi Offload with a second Tier 1 carrier. Similar to our first carrier deployment, we expect it will take months to complete a full roll out. In regards to military, we are now live on 54 bases covering more than 274,000 beds. We added 10,000 new subscribers during the quarter and improved our overall subscriber penetration rate to 28.8% across live bases. We also introduced our first international military deployment in Okinawa, Japan. In addition, strength in DAS continued as we secured the wireless rights to seven new venues during the quarter. We believe Boingo is the largest operator of indoor DAS networks in the U.S. and we are proud to be the market leader."

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement Boingo Wireless' financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Boingo Wireless provides Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flows as supplemental measures of its performance.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss attributable to common stockholders plus depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, income tax expense, interest and other expense (income), net, non-controlling interests, and excludes charges or gains that are nonrecurring, infrequent, or unusual. Boingo Wireless believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating its operating performance. Boingo's management uses Adjusted EBITDA in conjunction with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and other operating performance measures as part of its overall assessment of the Company's performance for planning purposes, including the preparation of its annual operating budget, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies and to communicate with its board of directors concerning its financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative financial measure to net loss attributable to common stockholders, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA excludes charges related to the Company's contested proxy election for the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders because they represent non-recurring charges and are not indicative of the underlying performance of the Company's business operations.
The Company defines free cash flows as cash flows provided by operating activities, less purchases of property and equipment, net. Boingo Wireless believes that free cash flows provides investors with additional useful information to measure operating liquidity because it reflects the amount of cash generated by the Company's operations after the purchases of property and equipment, that can be used for strategic opportunities. Free cash flows should not be considered as an alternative financial measure to net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, or any other measure of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.
