2 © 2021 Laureate Education, Inc. This presentation includes statements that express Laureate’s opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results and therefore are, or may be deemed to be, ‘‘forward - looking statements’’ within the meaning of the federal secur ities laws, which involve risks and uncertainties. Laureate’s actual results may vary significantly from the results anticipated in these forward - looking statements . You can identify forward - looking statements because they contain words such as ‘‘believes,’’ ‘‘expects,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘seeks,’’ ‘‘approxim ate ly,’’ ‘‘intends,’’ ‘‘plans,’’ ‘‘estimates’’ or ‘‘anticipates’’ or similar expressions that concern our strategy, plans or intentions. All statements we make relating to (i) gu idance (including, but not limited to, total enrollments, revenues and Adjusted EBITDA), (ii) our planned divestitures, the expected proceeds generated therefrom and the exp ected reduction in revenue resulting therefrom, (iii) our exploration of strategic alternatives and potential future plans, strategies or transactions t hat may be identified, explored or implemented as a result of such review process and any resulting litigation or dispute therewith, (iv) anticipated share purchases and (v) t he potential impact of the COVID - 19 pandemic on our business or the global economy as a whole are forward - looking statements. In addition, we, through our senior ma nagement, from time to time make forward - looking public statements concerning our expected future operations and performance and other developments. All of these forward - looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time, including, with respect to our exploration of strategic alter nat ives, risks and uncertainties as to the terms, timing, structure, benefits and costs of any divestiture or separation transaction and whether one will be consummated at all, and the impact of any divestiture or separation transaction on our remaining businesses. Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from those we expec ted . We derive most of our forward - looking statements from our operating budgets and forecasts, which are based upon many detailed assumptions. While we believe th at our assumptions are reasonable, we caution that it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for us to anticipate all factors that could affect our actual results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed in ou r Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 25, 2021, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q filed and to be fil ed with the SEC and other filings made with the SEC. These forward - looking statements speak only as of the time of this release and we do not undertake to publicl y update or revise them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, this presentation contains various operating data, including market share and market position, that are based on in ternal company data and management estimates. While management believes that our internal company research is reliable and the definitions of our markets which are used herein are appropriate, neither such research nor these definitions have been verified by an independent source and there are inherent challenges and limitat ion s involved in compiling data across various geographies and from various sources, including those discussed under “Industry and Market Data” in Laureate’s filing s w ith the SEC. Forward Looking Statements

3 © 2021 Laureate Education, Inc. In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) throughout this p res entation, Laureate provides the non - GAAP measurements of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, total cash, net of debt (or net cash), and Free Cash Flow. We h ave included these non - GAAP measurements because they are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core ope rating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short - and long - term operational plans. Adjusted EBITDA consists of income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted for the items included in the accompanying rec onc iliation. The exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period - to - period comparisons of our core business. Addi tionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a key input into the formula used by the compensation committee of our board of directors and our Chief Executive Officer in connec tio n with the payment of incentive compensation to our executive officers and other members of our management team. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA an d Adjusted EBITDA margin, which is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenues, provide useful information to investors and others in understand ing and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. Total cash, net of debt (or net cash) consists of total gross debt, including seller notes, for Continuing Operations and Dis con tinued Operations, less total cash and cash equivalents for Continuing Operations and Discontinued Operations. Net debt provides a useful indicator about Laureate’s le verage and liquidity. Free Cash Flow consists of operating cash flow minus capital expenditures. Free Cash Flow provides a useful indicator about L aur eate’s ability to fund its operations and repay its debts. Laureate’s calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, total debt, net of cash (or net debt), and Free Cash Flow ar e not necessarily comparable to calculations performed by other companies and reported as similarly titled measures. These non - GAAP measures should be considere d in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Adjusted EBITDA is reconc ile d from the GAAP measure in the attached table “Non - GAAP Reconciliation.” We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and an organic constant currency basis. The organic constant cur ren cy presentation, which is a non - GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions and divestitures, and othe r i tems. We believe that providing organic constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, consist ent with how we evaluate our performance. We calculate organic constant currency amounts using the change from prior - period average foreign exchange rates to current - period average foreign exchange rates, as applied to local - currency operating results for the current period, and then exclude the impact of acquisitio ns and divestitures and other items described in the accompanying presentation.
