Go-to-Market ● From March 31 through April 2, 2025, Cellebrite hosted its inaugural user conference, which was attended by approximately 700 attendees from approximately 350 agencies and enterprises spanning 27 different countries. A highlight of the event was the first- ever Digital Justice Awards, during which Cellebrite celebrated some of the brightest minds and sharpest technical skillsets in digital investigations, awarding “Justies” to 10 winners who distinguished themselves and their agencies over the past year. Supplemental financial information can be found on the Investor Relations section of our website at https://investors.cellebrite.com/financial-information/quarterly-results. Financial Outlook “Cellebrite delivered top-line results for the first quarter that were in line with our plans while disciplined spending enabled us to outperform our Q1 profitability targets,” said Dana Gerner, Cellebrite’s CFO. “Our outlook for the second quarter reflects our expectation that the current U.S. Federal spending environment will persist into the second quarter and that prudent management of our cost structure will enable us to continue converting top-line growth into strong profitability. We are maintaining our full year 2025 ARR and EBITDA targets while adjusting our full-year 2025 revenue targets to reflect the timing of net new business in the second half of our year, combined with lower anticipated one-time professional services revenue from the U.S. Federal vertical.” The Company’s second-quarter and full-year expectations for 2025 are as follows: Second-Quarter 2025 Expectations (as of 5/14/25) Full-Year 2025 Expectations (as of 5/14/25) ARR $416 million - $426 million $480 million - $495 million Annual growth 20% - 23% 21% - 25% Revenue $110 million - $116 million $470 million - $485 million Annual growth 15% - 21% 17% - 21% Adjusted EBITDA $26 million - $28 million $113 million - $123 million Adjusted EBITDA margin ~24% 24% - 25% 2

Conference Call Information Cellebrite will host a live conference call and webcast later this morning to review the Company’s financial results for the first quarter of 2025 and discuss its outlook for 2025. Pertinent details include: Date: Wednesday, May 14, 2025 Time: 8:30 a.m. ET Call-In Number: 203-518-9783 / 800-267-6316 Conference ID: CLBTQ125 Event URL: https://investors.cellebrite.com/events/event-details/cellebrite-q1-2025-financial-results-conference-call- webcast Webcast URL: https://edge.media-server.com/mmc/p/ygvqnbau In conjunction with the conference call and webcast, historical financial tables and supplemental data will be available on the quarterly results section of the Company’s investor relations website at https://investors.cellebrite.com/financial-information/quarterly-results. Non-GAAP Financial Information and Key Performance Indicators This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures. Cellebrite believes that the use of non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS and Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to investors. These measures, which the Company refers to as its non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide a more meaningful comparison of its operational performance from period to period, and offer investors and management greater visibility into the underlying performance of its business. Mainly: ● Share-based compensation expenses utilize varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and a variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash expenses; ● Acquired intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over an estimated useful life after the acquisition, and acquisition-related expenses are unrelated to current operations; and neither are comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results; ● To the extent that the above adjustments have an effect on tax (income) expense, such an effect is excluded in the non-GAAP adjustment to net income; 3
Page 4
● Tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense vary for many reasons that are often unrelated to the Company’s underlying performance and make period-to-period comparisons more challenging; and ● Financial instruments are remeasured according to GAAP and vary for many reasons that are often unrelated to the Company’s current operations and affect financial income. Each of our non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial measures do not represent our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to operating income or net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolated from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Further, share-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses in our business and an important part of the compensation provided to our employees. In addition, the amortization of intangible assets is expected recurring expense over the estimated useful life of the underlying intangible asset and acquisition-related expenses will be incurred to the extent acquisitions are made in the future. Furthermore, foreign exchange rates may fluctuate from one period to another, and the Company does not estimate movements in foreign currencies. A reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP measure is set forth in a table included at the end of this press release, which is also available on our website at https://investors.cellebrite.com. In regard to forward-looking non-GAAP guidance, we are not able to reconcile the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA measure to the closest corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items including, but not limited to, fair value movements, share-based payments for future awards, tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and certain financing and tax items. This press release also includes key performance indicators, including annual recurring revenue and dollar-based retention rate. Annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized value of active term-based subscription license contracts and maintenance contracts related to perpetual licenses in effect at the end of that period. Subscription license contracts and maintenance contracts for perpetual licenses are annualized by multiplying the revenue of the last month of the period by 12. The annualized value of contracts is a legal and contractual determination made by assessing the contractual terms with our customers. The annualized value of maintenance contracts is not determined by reference to historical revenue, deferred revenue or any other GAAP financial measure over any period. ARR is not a forecast of future revenues, which can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal rates. Dollar-based net retention rate (“NRR”) is calculated by dividing customer recurring revenue by base revenue. We define base revenue as recurring revenue we recognized from all customers with a valid license at the last quarter of the previous year period, during the four quarters ended one year prior to the date of measurement. We define our customer revenue as the recurring revenue we recognized during the four quarters ended on the date of measurement from the same customer base included in our measure of base revenue, including recurring revenue resulting from additional sales to those customers. 4
