Table of Contents Our Strengths Vision • We have spent the last nine years building a founder-led, community company and executing on our vision of providing a better day at work for less. • Our global platform provides members with flexible access to beautiful spaces, a culture of inclusivity and the energy of an inspired community, all connected by our extensive technology infrastructure. Member Community • Our membership base has grown by over 100% every year since 2014, and over 50% of our members are located outside of the United States as of June 2019. Our 527,000 memberships include global enterprises across multiple industries and, notably, 38% of the Global Fortune 500. We expect enterprise to continue to be our fastest growing membership type, currently representing 40% of our memberships. • As we expand, we continue to add new members at a strong pace while also strengthening our relationships with our existing members. Of the new memberships added in 2018, 35% were attributable to organizations that were already members at the end of 2017. Global Platform • We have a global brand with a platform spanning 528 locations in 111 cities across 29 countries. Individuals and organizations turn to us directly to solve their workplace needs. As a result, we are able to aggregate demand and match an individual or organization to the right space, at the right time, at the right price. • We offer a space-as-a-service model that we operationalize by using a global-local playbook powered by technology. Attractive Economics • As of June 30, 2019, our run-rate revenue was $3.3 billion, representing 86% year-over-year growth, and our committed revenue backlog was $4.0 billion, approximately eight times our committed revenue backlog as of December 31, 2017. • We strive to operate our business so that each new location is accretive to our long-term financial performance, resulting in growing contribution margin. We strategically cluster locations in cities leading to greater brand awareness and economies of scale, which, in turn, drives stronger monetization of our global platform. Future Impact • We estimate that our penetration in our 280 target cities globally is approximately 0.2%. We have invested in the infrastructure for us to expand in existing and new markets as well as expand the scope of our solutions and the products and services we offer our members. • We have created a powerful ecosystem and brand that benefit not only our members and partners, but also our landlords, neighborhoods and cities through shared value creation. We believe our powerful brand, global footprint, scalable business model and cost advantage are significant competitive advantages that will allow us to further penetrate existing and new markets and maximize the future impact of the WeWork effect. 162
