Marqeta Earnings Supplement Information Regarding Non-GAAP Measures 8 In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings supplement contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Marqeta considers Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Non-GAAP operating expenses as supplemental measures of the company’s performance that are not required by, nor presented in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net (loss) income adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; executive chairman long-term performance award; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring and other one-time costs; acquisition-related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs, and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions and cash and non- cash postcombination compensation expenses; income tax expense; and other income, net, which consists of interest income from our short-term investments and cash deposits, realized foreign currency gains and losses, and impairment of financial instruments. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance because it allows management and our board of directors to evaluate and compare our core operating results, including our operating efficiencies, from period to period. Additionally, we utilize Adjusted EBITDA as an input into our calculation of our annual employee bonus plans and performance-based restricted stock units. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Revenue. This measure is used by management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating efficiency. We define Non-GAAP operating expenses as Total operating expenses adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization; share-based compensation expense; executive chairman long-term performance award; payroll tax related to share-based compensation; restructuring and other one-time costs; and acquisition-related expenses which consist of due diligence costs, transaction costs and integration costs related to potential or successful acquisitions and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expenses. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Non-GAAP operating expenses should not be considered in isolation, or construed as an alternative to Net (loss) income, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of the company's liquidity. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than Marqeta does, which limits its usefulness in comparing Marqeta’s financial results with those of other companies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin to the comparable GAAP measure for the second quarter and full year of 2025 is not available due to the challenges and impracticability with estimating some of the items, as such items cannot be reasonably predicted and could be significant. Because of those challenges, reconciliations of forward-looking Non-GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable effort.

(2) Acquisition-related expenses, which include transaction costs, integration costs and cash and non-cash postcombination compensation expense, have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA as such expenses are not reflective of our ongoing core operations and are not representative of the ongoing costs necessary to operate our business; instead, these are costs specifically associated with a discrete transaction. (3) Restructuring and other one-time costs include the costs associated with the transition of our CEO and other one-time costs related to retention bonuses provided to other key employees. These bonuses have service requirements and are expensed over the requisite service period. 9
