Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 6 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 Dear Shareholder, CLEAR celebrated our two-year anniversary as a public company on June 30th. Our IPO roadshow focused on how identity is foundational to unlocking friction-free experiences and how CLEAR’s secure identity platform extends broadly into travel and beyond. As we work to make CLEAR a daily habit, it is the right moment to review where we have been, where we are going, our business model and our capital allocation philosophy. We continue to believe that travel has undergone a structural shift in demand post-pandemic. Initially we saw a strong “COVID bounce”, however eight quarters in, with bookings growth of 42.5% this quarter it is evident that travelers value CLEAR more than ever. The CLEAR member base is expanding beyond the traditional road warrior, evidenced by new geographies, a younger demographic and weekly and seasonal travel patterns very different from the past. CLEAR has become the trusted brand for predictable and friction-free travel experiences. In addition, travel is hard and getting harder. By 2030 we expect one million more travelers traversing US airports every day (a 3% CAGR from 2019 levels). Technology and innovation must be part of the solution and we are committed to supporting our partners in this challenge. In 2010, we believed in the consumerization of biometrics to make experiences safer and easier—today, the global travel industry agrees. Over the past few years our focus has expanded to leveraging biometric innovation to transform the travel experience from home to gate with security and customer obsession at the core—CLEAR is on the side of the traveler. The CLEAR ID is universal—travelers enroll once and whether in the cloud or on device—across airlines, airports and use cases—when you are dropping your bag, going through security, or entering the lounge—you are always you. The “CLEAR lane of the future” is on the horizon. Since 2020, we’ve been collaborating with the Department of Homeland Security on digital identity innovation and integration with TSA’s next generation hardware. A more friction-free experience will electronically transmit a CLEAR member’s credential (digital identity) to TSA’s next-gen hardware for seamless and secure entry into physical screening, without the need for an ID. Additionally, new digital ID industry standards allow for mobile enrollments and we will transition from fingerprint and iris as the primary biometric to face. With one million more travelers per day—these efficiency gains will be extremely important for travelers and for CLEAR. We remain excited about TSA PreCheck® Enrollment Provided by CLEAR. We believe we will drive significant growth in the program through expanded availability and easy access. The launch should be accretive to margins going forward, as we have been carrying significant overhead for this program for several years. With CLEAR Plus, RESERVE powered by CLEAR, TSA PreCheck® Enrollment Provided by CLEAR, and our home to gate innovations—we are focused on serving all travelers whether they travel once a year or once a week.


 
Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 7 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 CLEAR Verified (formerly Powered By CLEAR) is our nascent B2B business. The ability to authenticate your identity once and use it everywhere is the power of CLEAR’s secure identity platform—for our members and for our partners. With CLEAR, you are you every time, everywhere. These are early days for the digital identity industry. As the world moves online—identity and trust are paramount and there are countless use cases for CLEAR’s platform. Online platforms such as our partner LinkedIn are increasingly focused on confirming the identity of their user base to increase trust and reduce fraud. We are working with LinkedIn to expand to other markets later this year, as we have added localization capabilities to our platform. Healthcare service businesses want to improve customer and employee experience and drive efficiencies by leveraging digital identities to streamline check-in, login and account management (our partner University of Miami Health System speaks about our value proposition here). We also see opportunity in the financial services space as businesses are looking for ways to improve their Know Your Customer (“KYC”) processes. CLEAR’s networked identity supports businesses by authenticating an individual upfront and enabling that individual to leverage their identity across multiple partners. Our growing base of over 17 million members accelerates adoption for our partners at a lower cost. Since going public, our team has executed well—expanding our network, our products, and our partners. We have grown from 38 CLEAR Plus airports to 53, and 18 airports with RESERVE powered by CLEAR. Total Cumulative Enrollments have increased from 6.3 million to 17.4 million members, trailing 12-month Free Cash Flow has grown from $11 million to $194 million and we are on track to more than double 2021 bookings this year. We have consistently highlighted the three business metrics we believe are key to maximizing long-term shareholder value—members, bookings and Free Cash Flow. Sometimes we make near term trade offs. For example we have been investing in CLEAR Verified and TSA PreCheck® Enrollment Provided by CLEAR since 2020, which have impacted our margins. We remain committed to the long-term 35% Adjusted EBITDA margin target we laid out in our IPO roadshow. While we have made good progress since 2021 we expect high incremental margins in the future as TSA PreCheck® Enrollment Provided by CLEAR launches and platform bookings ramp while growth in these investments slow materially. As owner-operators (we own ~18% of total shares outstanding) we are highly aligned with CLEAR shareholders—we will optimize the levers of the business and make capital allocation decisions accordingly. With $773 million of cash on the balance sheet, capital allocation is a big deal. We have significant optionality to invest in organic and inorganic opportunities while returning excess capital to shareholders. In the last 12 months we have returned ~$120 million to shareholders in the form of share repurchase and distributions.


 
Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 8 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 We are excited for the next chapter of our capital allocation journey with today’s announcement of a regular quarterly dividend. On top of this regular dividend, we plan to return additional capital to shareholders on an opportunistic basis, which may include special cash dividends and share repurchases. Our goal is to grow total cash returned to shareholders on an annual basis over time. We remain focused on growing members, bookings, AND Free Cash Flow, while continuing to build a brand that members AND partners trust and love. Best,


 
Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 9 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 Second quarter 2023 Revenue of $149.9 million grew 45.9% as compared to the second quarter of 2022 while Total Bookings of $175.1 million grew 42.5%. We saw a continuation of the strong travel trends driving both membership growth and net retention, leading to better-than-expected Total Bookings growth. Our in-airport and partner channels continued to perform well. Second quarter 2023 Total Cumulative Enrollments reached 17.4 million, driven primarily by an increase in CLEAR Plus enrollments at existing and new airports, as well as contributions from CLEAR Verified. Second quarter 2023 Active CLEAR Plus Members reached 6.2 million, up 40.6% as compared to the second quarter of 2022 driven by new members added through airport, partner and organic channels in existing and new markets. As this is a new quarterly KPI, historical figures have been included for reference in the Appendix for periods beginning with the first quarter of 2021. Second quarter 2023 Total Cumulative Platform Uses reached 154.3 million, driven by the continued strength in air travel leading to increases in CLEAR Plus verifications. Second quarter 2023 Annual CLEAR Plus Member Usage was 8.7x, up 3.6% as compared to the second quarter of 2022. As this is a new quarterly KPI, historical figures have been included for reference in the Appendix for periods beginning with the first quarter of 2021. Second quarter 2023 Annual CLEAR Plus Net Member Retention was 90.7%, down 360 basis points year-over-year and down 60 basis points sequentially. The decline continues to be driven by a normalization of winback activity from pandemic levels. As previously discussed, we expect long-term Annual CLEAR Plus Net Member Retention to settle in the upper 80s percentage range, above pre-pandemic levels. Cost of revenue share fee was $21.2 million in the second quarter of 2023 and includes a COVID-related benefit of $0.3 million. Excluding COVID-related benefits in all periods, cost of revenue share fee as a percentage of revenue was up 102 basis points year-over-year and down 87 basis points sequentially. Cost of revenue share percentage may vary by quarter, but on an annual basis we expect it to remain relatively stable over time. Cost of direct salaries and benefits were $34.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, up 35.1% year-over-year, and up 3.2% sequentially. As a percentage of revenue, cost of direct salaries and benefits was down 182 basis points year-over-year and down 222 basis points sequentially. Year-over-year growth was driven by nine new airport launches since the second quarter 2022 and higher travel volumes leading to higher staffing needs. Second Quarter 2023 Financial Discussion

We continue to work collaboratively with our partners at TSA as we make progress towards soft launch and public launch this year.

Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 15 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 To evaluate performance of the business, we utilize a variety of other non-GAAP financial reporting and performance measures. These key measures include Total Bookings, Total Cumulative Enrollments, Total Cumulative Platform Uses, Annual CLEAR Plus Net Member Retention, Active CLEAR Plus Members, and Annual CLEAR Plus Member Usage. Total Bookings Total Bookings represent our total revenue plus the change in deferred revenue during the period. Total Bookings in any particular period reflect sales to new and renewing CLEAR Plus subscribers plus any accrued billings to partners. Management believes that Total Bookings is an important measure of the current health and growth of the business and views it as a leading indicator. Total Cumulative Enrollments We define Total Cumulative Enrollments as the number of enrollments since inception as of the end of the period. An Enrollment is defined as any member who has registered for the CLEAR platform since inception and has a profile (including limited time free trials regardless of conversion to paid membership) net of duplicate and/or purged accounts. This includes CLEAR Plus members who have completed enrollment with CLEAR and have ever activated a payment method, plus associated family accounts. Management views this metric as an important tool to analyze the efficacy of our growth and marketing initiatives as new members are potentially a current and leading indicator of revenues. Total Cumulative Platform Uses We define Total Cumulative Platform Uses as the number of individual engagements across CLEAR use cases, including CLEAR Plus, flagship app and CLEAR Verified, since inception as of the end of the period. Management views this metric as an important tool to analyze the level of engagement of our member base which can be a leading indicator of future growth, retention and revenue. Annual CLEAR Plus Net Member Retention We define Annual CLEAR Plus Net Member Retention as one minus the CLEAR Plus net member churn on a rolling 12 month basis. We define “CLEAR Plus net member churn” as total cancellations net of winbacks in the trailing 12 month period divided by the average active CLEAR Plus members as of the beginning of each month within the same 12 month period. Winbacks are defined as reactivated members who have been cancelled for at least 60 days. Active CLEAR Plus members are defined as members who have completed enrollment with CLEAR and have activated a payment method for our in-airport CLEAR Plus service, including their registered family plan members. Active CLEAR Plus members also include those in a grace period of up to 45 days after a billing failure during which time we attempt to collect updated payment information. Management views this metric as an important tool to analyze the level of engagement of our member base, which can be a leading indicator of future growth and revenue, as well as an indicator of customer satisfaction and long term business economics. Definitions of Key Performance Indicators


 
Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 16 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 In addition to our results as determined in accordance with GAAP, we disclose Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share, Basic and Diluted as non-GAAP financial measures that management believes provide useful information to investors. These measures are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income (loss), net cash provided by (used in) operating activities or any other operating performance measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies. Our Non-GAAP financial measures are expressed in thousands. Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) We define Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for income taxes, interest (income) expense net, depreciation and amortization, impairment and losses on asset disposals, equity-based compensation expense, mark to market of warrant liabilities, net other income (expense) excluding sublease rental income, acquisition-related costs and changes in fair value of contingent consideration. Adjusted EBITDA is an important financial measure used by management and our board of directors (“Board”) to evaluate business performance. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) to exclude sublease rental income from our other income (expense) adjustment. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) to include impairment on assets as a separate component. We did not revise prior years' Adjusted EBITDA (Loss) because there was no impact of a similar nature in the prior period that affects comparability. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Active CLEAR Plus Members We define Active CLEAR Plus Members as the number of members with an active CLEAR Plus subscription as of the end of the period. This includes CLEAR Plus members who have an activated payment method, plus associated family accounts and is inclusive of members who are in a limited time free trial; it excludes duplicate and/or purged accounts. Management views this as an important tool to measure the growth of its CLEAR Plus product. Annual CLEAR Plus Member Usage We define Annual CLEAR Plus Member Usage as the total number of unique CLEAR Plus airport verifications in the 365 days prior to the end of the period divided by active CLEAR Plus members as of the end of the period who have been enrolled for at least 365 days. The numerator includes only verifications of the population in the denominator. Management views this as an important tool to analyze the level of engagement of our active CLEAR Plus member base.

Clear Secure, Inc. | Q2 2023 | Page 17 Shareholder Letter Q2 2023 Adjusted Net Income (Loss) We define Adjusted Net Income (Loss) as net income (loss) attributable to Clear Secure, Inc. adjusted for the net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, equity-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition-related costs, changes in fair value of contingent consideration and the income tax effect of these adjustments. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is used in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share as defined below. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share We compute Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share, Basic as Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by Adjusted Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding for our Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock and Class D Common Stock assuming the exchange of all vested and outstanding common units in Alclear at the end of each period presented. We do not present Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share for shares of our Class B Common Stock although they are participating securities based on the assumed conversion of those shares to our Class A Common Stock. We do not present Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share on a dilutive basis for periods where we have Adjusted Net Income (Loss) since we do not assume the conversion of any potentially dilutive equity instruments as the result would be antidilutive. In periods where we have Adjusted Net Income, the Company also calculates Adjusted Net Income per Common Share, Diluted based on the effect of potentially dilutive equity instruments for the periods presented using the treasury stock/if-converted method, as applicable. Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share exclude, to the extent applicable, the tax effected impact of non-cash expenses and other items that are not directly related to our core operations. These items are excluded because they are connected to the Company’s long term growth plan and not intended to increase short term revenue in a specific period. Further, to the extent that other companies use similar methods in calculating non-GAAP measures, the provision of supplemental non-GAAP information can allow for a comparison of the Company’s relative performance against other companies that also report non-GAAP operating results. Free Cash Flow We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities adjusted for purchases of property and equipment plus the value of share repurchases over fair value. With regards to our CLEAR Plus subscription service, we generally collect cash from our members upfront for annual subscriptions. As a result, when the business is growing Free Cash Flow can be a real time indicator of the current trajectory of the business. See below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Cont.)
