This presentation contains “forward-looking” statements that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, projections, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, potential market opportunities and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “would” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this presentation, and nothing in this presentation should be regarded as a representation by any person that these beliefs or assumptions will take place or occur. You should read the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2018, including the Risk Factors set forth therein and the exhibits thereto, and the Company’s Quarterly Report

  • n Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 2, 2018, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be

materially different from what we expect. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future. This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC rules. As required by Regulation G, we have provided a reconciliation of those measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, which is available in the Appendix slides.

Predicting the right bid for the highest value client

Client 4

We take CPC bids from clients

Clients

$0.30 x 0.95% = $2.85

We convert those bids into pCPM (predicted CPM)

CPC x CTR = pCPM (predicted CPM)

Publishers

$0.50 x 0.75% = $3.75 $0.40 x 0.61% = $2.44 $0.80 x 0.45% = $3.60 $2.00

Clearing Price (CPM)

Highest bidder

Bid =   CPC  pCTR  pCR  pAOV

Client 1 Client 2 Client 3

We buy inventory from publishers in real time

CPM = Cost per Thousand impressions, CTR = Click-through rate, CR = Conversion rate, AOV = Average Order Value

  • Criteo Direct Bidder (CDB) allows Criteo to bid on publisher inventory directly through the ad

server without the need to funnel demand through Supply Side Platforms (SSPs) or exchanges.

  • Benefits for the publisher:
  • all of the Criteo bid goes to the publisher; none is taken by the SSP for fees

(typically 10%-20%)

  • user matching between the Publisher and Criteo is much more timely and complete than

matching reliant on a third party

  • +20-40% spend with publishers on the same inventory that was previously accessed

through RTB

  • Launched in Q2 2017, already connected to 2,600 publishers at the end of Q3 2018

1 We define Revenue ex-TAC as our revenue excluding traffic acquisition costs, or TAC, generated over the applicable measurement period. Revenue ex-TAC is not a measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Please see the Appendices for a reconciliation of Revenue ex-TAC to Revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

2 We define Adjusted EBITDA as our consolidated earnings before financial income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to eliminate the impact of equity awards compensation expense,

pension service costs, acquisition-related costs and deferred price consideration. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Please see the Appendices for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

2018 is a transition year for Criteo

ITP significantly impacts our business in 2018

  • Reducing our year-over-year growth

In the short term, the company-wide transformation slows down our growth and drives up employee attrition We are evolving to a multi-solutions platform …

  • Internal reorganization
  • Offer technology platform in modular ways

…and adapting our go-to-market strategy accordingly

  • More granular client segmentation
  • Re-allocate resources
  • New hiring plan
  • We expect the transformation to take 6 to 12 months
