Forward Looking Statements Certain statements included in this Presentation are not historical facts but are forward - looking statements, including for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 . Forward - looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “predict,” “poised,” “positioned,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook,” “target,” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward - looking . These forward - looking statements include, but are not limited to, ( 1 ) the anticipated expansion of Bridger’s operations and increased deployment of Bridger’s aircraft fleet, the anticipated benefits therefrom and the ultimate structure of such acquisitions and/or right to use arrangements ; ( 2 ) Bridger’s business and growth plans and future financial performance ; ( 3 ) current and future demand for aerial firefighting services, including the duration or severity of any domestic or international wildfire seasons ; ( 4 ) the magnitude, timing and benefits from any cost reduction actions ; ( 5 ) Bridger’s exploration of, need for, or completion of any future financings ; ( 6 ) Bridger’s potential sources of liquidity and capital resources ; ( 7 ) Bridger’s remediation plan for its material weaknesses in Bridger’s internal control over financial reporting ; and ( 8 ) anticipated investments in additional aircraft, capital resources and research and development and the effect of these investments . These statements are based on various assumptions and estimates, whether or not identified in this Presentation, and on the current expectations of Bridger’s management and are not predictions of actual performance . These forward - looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability . Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions . Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Bridger . These forward - looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including : the duration or severity of any domestic or international wildfire seasons ; changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions ; Bridger’s failure to realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisitions ; Bridger’s successful integration of any aircraft (including achievement of synergies and cost reductions) ; Bridger’s ability to successfully and timely develop, sell and expand its services, and otherwise implement its growth strategy ; risks relating to Bridger’s operations and business, including information technology and cybersecurity risks, loss of requisite licenses, flight safety risks, loss of key customers and deterioration in relationships between Bridger and its employees ; risks related to increased competition ; risks relating to potential disruption of current plans, operations and infrastructure of Bridger, including as a result of the consummation of any acquisition ; risks that Bridger is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property ; risks that Bridger experiences difficulties managing its growth and expanding operations ; Bridger's ability to compete with existing or new companies that could cause downward pressure on prices, fewer customer orders, reduced margins, the inability to take advantage of new business opportunities, and the loss of market share ; the ability to successfully select, execute or integrate future acquisitions into Bridger's business, which could result in material adverse effects to operations and financial conditions ; and those factors discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward - Looking Statements” included in Bridger’s Annual Report filed with the U . S . Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14 , 2025 and in Bridger’s Quarterly Report on Form 10 - Q for the quarter ended June 30 , 2025 filed with the SEC on August 8 , 2025 .. If any of these risks materialize or Bridger management's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward - looking statements . The risks and uncertainties above are not exhaustive, and there may be additional risks that Bridger presently does not know or that Bridger currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward - looking statements . In addition, forward - looking statements reflect Bridger’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Presentation . Bridger anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause Bridger’s assessments to change . However, while Bridger may elect to update these forward - looking statements at some point in the future, Bridger specifically disclaims any obligation to do so . These forward - looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Bridger’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation . Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward - looking statements contained in this Presentation . Trademarks Bridger owns or has rights to various trademarks, service marks and trade names that its uses in connection with the operation of its business .

Non - GAAP Financial Measures Some of the financial information and data contained in this Presentation, such as Adjusted EBITDA (“Adj . EBITDA”), Adjusted EBITDA margin (“Adj . EBITDA margin”), Adjusted EBITDA per Scooper, Growth Capital Expenditures (“Growth CapEx”), Maintenance and Miscellaneous Capital Expenditures (“Maintenance and Miscellaneous CapEx”) and Free Cash Flow, have not been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) . Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, as adjusted to exclude non - cash items or certain transactions that management does not believe are indicative of ongoing Company operating performance, such as non - cash stock - based compensation, bus

 

iness development and integration costs, offering costs, loss on disposals and non - cash impairment charges, changes in fair value of earnout consideration, changes in fair value of outstanding warrants, loss on extinguishment of debt, and non - recurring discretionary bonuses to employees and executives . Adjusted EBITDA per Scooper is defined as the average net earnings (loss) per Super Scooper before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization . These non - GAAP financial measures, and other measures that are calculated using such non - GAAP measures, are an addition to, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenue, operating income, profit before tax, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP . A reconciliation of the projected non - GAAP financial measures has not been provided and is unable to be provided without unreasonable effort because certain items excluded from these non - GAAP financial measures cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time . For the same reasons, Bridger is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results . Although Bridger believes that net income or loss, as determined in accordance with GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure, Bridger uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as key profitability measures to assess the performance of its business . Bridger believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in its business and use the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, and communicate internally and externally, in managing its business and evaluating its performance . Bridger also believes these measures help investors compare its operating performance with its results in prior periods in a way that is consistent with how Bridger management evaluates such performance . Neither EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA are recognized under GAAP and do not purport to be an alternative to net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of Bridger’s performance . Such measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for Bridger’s results as reported under GAAP . EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude items that can have a significant effect on Bridger’s profit or loss and should, therefore, be used only in conjunction with Bridger’s GAAP profit or loss for the period . Bridger management

compensates for the limitations of using non - GAAP financial measures by using them to supplement GAAP results to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone . Because not all companies use identical calculations, these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies . See the final slide in this presentation for reconciliations of these non - GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures . Use of Projections This Presentation contains projected financial information with respect to Bridger, namely revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Scooper for 2024 . Such projected financial information constitutes forward - looking information for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as necessarily being

 

 

indicative of future results . The projections, estimates and targets in this Presentation are forward - looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Bridger’s control . See “Forward - Looking Statements” above . The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, weather, economic, regulatory, competitive, technological, and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in such projections, estimates and targets . The inclusion of projections, estimates and targets in this Presentation should not be regarded as an indication that Bridger, or their representative, considered or consider the financial projections, estimates and targets to be a reliable prediction of future events . The independent registered public accounting firm of Bridger has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, neither of them expressed an opinion or provided any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation .
