The information set forth under this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Directors; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Resignation of Sheila Lirio Marcelo as Chief Executive Officer
On August 6, 2019, the Company and Sheila Lirio Marcelo, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, mutually agreed that Ms. Marcelo would resign as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective as of her successor's start date with the Company (the “Resignation Date”), and her acceptance of the role of Executive Chairwoman of the Company, effective as of the Resignation Date. The Board of Directors intends to retain an executive search firm to commence a search for Ms. Marcelo’s successor.
In connection with Ms. Marcelo’s contemplated resignation and transition to the Executive Chairwoman role, on August 6, 2019 the Company entered into a Transition Agreement with Ms. Marcelo (the “Transition Agreement”).
The Transition Agreement provides that, until the Resignation Date, Ms. Marcelo will continue receiving a base salary at her current rate and will remain eligible to participate in Company benefit plans, including its annual bonus program, to the same extent that she is currently eligible to participate in such programs, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans.
As the Executive Chairwoman, Ms. Marcelo will support the operations and deliberations of the Company's board of directors (the "Board") and the satisfaction of the Board's functions and responsibilities, which support may include public engagement and maintaining partnerships in the care industry, supporting strategic initiatives, and ensuring a successful transition of management. Subject to the terms of the Company’s bylaws, the termination date of the role of Executive Chairwoman will be the first anniversary of the Resignation Date (the “Chairwoman Term”), unless earlier terminated by the Board. Following the Chairwoman Term, Ms. Marcelo will become the non-employee Chairwoman of the board, to the extent that she has been elected to the Board.
Additionally, (i) in the event that Ms. Marcelo resigns for Good Reason, as defined in the Executive Severance Agreement dated July 19, 2017, entered into by and between the Company and Ms. Marcelo and modified by the Transition Agreement (the “Severance Agreement”), or if she is terminated by the Company without Cause, as defined in the Severance Agreement (either, a “Qualifying Termination”) prior to the appointment of a new Chief Executive Officer or (ii) effective upon her resignation as President and Chief Executive Officer and appointment as Executive Chairwoman, Ms. Marcelo will be entitled to receive the severance payment and benefits described in the Severance Agreement, provided that, solely for purposes of calculating the cash severance amounts under the Severance Agreement, the Company and Ms. Marcelo have agreed that Ms. Marcelo’s base salary will be deemed to be $485,000 and her target bonus amount will be deemed to be $485,000, and to certain modifications in the timing of the payments. Ms. Marcelo’s receipt of the severance payments and benefits remains subject to her execution of a general release of claims in the Company's favor and continued compliance with certain confidentiality and restrictive covenants to which she is subject.
Under the terms of the Transition Agreement, while serving as Executive Chairwoman, Ms. Marcelo will be entitled to receive (i) an annual base salary of $250,000, (ii) the support of an executive assistant for 50% of the assistant’s working time and (iii) a travel budget of $50,000. If Ms. Marcelo undergoes a Qualifying Termination (as defined in the Severance Agreement) from the Executive Chairwoman role prior to the expiration of the Chairwoman Term, or if Ms. Marcelo is not nominated for reelection or reelected to the Board at the Company's 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, Ms. Marcelo will be entitled to receive an amount equal to $250,000 less the amount of base salary she earned through the date of such termination, subject to her executing a release of claims in the Company’s favor. During the period beginning on January 1, 2019 and ending on the date that Ms. Marcelo ceases continuous service as a service provider to the Company, Ms. Marcelo will also be entitled to payment or reimbursement by the Company of up to $255,000 in expenses for purposes of authoring a book regarding the care economy, which amount includes payment of taxes incurred by Ms. Marcelo as result of the reimbursements or payments and will be reduced by (i) the value of any expenses incurred by Ms. Marcelo and paid by the Company in 2019 prior to the effective date of the Transition Agreement and (ii) the value of Company resources and services utilized by Ms. Marcelo during or after 2019 in the authoring of the book.





Additionally, upon her appointment as Executive Chairwoman of the Company, Ms. Marcelo will be entitled to receive a number of restricted stock units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $200,000 by (y) the 30-day trailing average closing price per share of Company’s common stock immediately preceding the date of grant. The restricted stock units will vest over twelve months in four equal quarterly installments, subject to Ms. Marcelo’s continued service as Executive Chairwoman and provided that the restricted stock units will become fully vested if Ms. Marcelo undergoes a Qualifying Termination (as defined in the Severance Agreement) from the Executive Chairwoman role prior to the expiration of the Chairwoman Term, or if Ms. Marcelo is not nominated for reelection or reelected to the Board at the Company’s 2020 annual meeting of stockholders.
Ms. Marcelo’s existing Company equity and equity-based awards will continue to be governed in accordance with the documents memorializing and/or governing such grants or awards.
The foregoing description of the Transition Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Consulting Agreement with Michael Echenberg
On August 5, 2019, the Company and Mr. Echenberg entered into a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”), to be effective on August 30, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), pursuant to which Mr. Echenberg agreed to provide financial consulting and related services to the Company for a term commencing on the Effective Date and continuing until April 30, 2020.  In consideration for the services Mr. Echenberg has agreed to provide pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, all stock options and restricted stock units that he was awarded during the term of his employment with the Company will continue to vest according to their terms, with the exception of an aggregate of 76,662 market-based restricted stock units and 30,624 performance-based restricted stock units that will be canceled upon the effective date of the Consulting Agreement. 
The Consulting Agreement contains other provisions customary in agreements of this nature, including restrictive covenants regarding confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation.  The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.

Subject to the terms of the Company’s Bylaws, the termination date of the role of Executive Chairwoman title shall be the one-year anniversary of the start date of the new Chief Executive Officer (the “ Executive Chairwoman Term ”), unless earlier terminated by the Board or the Executive Chairwoman, at which time the Executive Chairwoman will become the non-employee Chairwoman of the Board, to the extent that Executive has been elected to the Board.




Exhibit B

Executive’s compensation terms for the Executive Chairwoman position are as follows:

1.
Base Salary . Upon Executive becoming Executive Chairwoman, Executive’s annual base salary shall be equal to $250,000 paid over twelve (12) months in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll cycles. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment as Executive Chairwoman without Cause prior to expiration of the Executive Chairwoman Term, the Board fails to nominate Executive for reelection to the Board at the Company’s 2020 meeting of stockholders or the stockholders fail to reelect Executive to the Board at such meeting, or Executive otherwise undergoes a Qualifying Termination as set forth in the Severance Agreement, as amended, from the Executive Chairwoman role (and for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Qualifying Termination that occurs solely as a result of the matters described in this Transition Agreement), subject in any case to Executive executing and not revoking a Release within the 30 day period following the date of the applicable event and subject to Section 6 of the Transition Agreement, the Company shall pay to Executive an amount equal to $250,000 less the amount of base salary earned by Executive as Executive Chairwoman through the date of such termination, paid in a lump sum within forty-five (45) days following the date of the applicable event.
2.
Equity Award . Upon appointment as Executive Chairwoman, Executive shall receive a number of time-based restricted stock units equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) $200,000 by (y) the 30-day trailing average closing price per share of Company common stock (“ Common Stock ”) immediately preceding the date of grant, which restricted stock units will vest over 12 months in four equal quarterly installments, subject to Executive’s continuous service as Executive Chairwoman. Any unvested portion of the equity award will accelerate and fully vest if the Company terminates Executive’s employment as Executive Chairwoman without Cause prior to expiration of the Executive Chairwoman Term, the Board fails to nominate Executive for reelection to the Board at the Company’s 2020 meeting of stockholders or the stockholders fail to reelect Executive to the Board at such meeting, or Executive otherwise undergoes a Qualifying Termination as set forth in the Severance Agreement, as amended, from the Executive Chairwoman role (and for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any Qualifying Termination that occurs solely as a result of the matters described in this Transition Agreement), subject in any case to Executive executing and not revoking a Release within the 30 day period following the date of the applicable event and subject to Section 6 of the Transition Agreement.
3.
Separation from Service . The parties agree that Executive will incur a Separation from Service as of the Resignation Date.
4.

CONSULTING AGREEMENT
This Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”), effective as of August 30, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), is made between Care.com, Inc. (“Care.com”) and the person/entity set forth on the signature page hereto (“Consultant”).
1.    SERVICES AND PAYMENT.
a.    Engagement.   Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Care.com retains Consultant, and Consultant hereby agrees to perform for Care.com, certain services as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Services”). Consultant represents and warrants that she/he has the requisite skill, experience, and resources to perform the Services, and that the Services will be performed in a timely and professional manner consistent with industry standards and the terms set forth on Exhibit A , exercising due skill and care.
b.    Fees.   In exchange for the full, prompt and satisfactory performance of all Services to be rendered hereunder, Care.com shall provide Consultant, as full and complete compensation for the Services, upon receipt of timesheets or other appropriate documentation in accordance with Care.com’s normal business practices, compensation in the form and upon such terms as set forth on Exhibit A .

2.    TERM AND TERMINATION.   This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until the earlier of the expiration date set forth on Exhibit A (the “Expiration Date”) and the date the Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof (the “Term”). Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event the other party materially breaches this Agreement, and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after written notice of the breach by the non-breaching party. Such notice shall, in reasonable detail, specify the nature of the breach.  Upon any termination of this Agreement, Care.com shall only be obligated to pay the fees and expenses or other consideration incurred through the date of termination. Unless otherwise specified on Exhibit A , upon termination of a fixed fee project, the parties shall mutually agree on what portion of the Services were actually completed by Consultant through the date of termination, and the fees owed by Care.com shall be equal to that portion of the fixed fee.

3.    INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.   It is expressly understood and agreed that Consultant's relationship to Care.com will be that of an independent contractor. Neither this Agreement nor the Services to be rendered hereunder shall for any purpose whatsoever or in any way or manner create any employer-employee relationship between Care.com and Consultant. Accordingly, Consultant shall have sole and exclusive responsibility for the payment of all federal, state and local income taxes, for all employment and disability insurance and for Social Security and other similar taxes with respect to any compensation provided by Care.com hereunder. Consultant shall assume and accept all responsibilities which are imposed on independent contractors by any statute, regulation, and rule of law or otherwise. Consultant is not authorized to bind Care.com or to incur any obligation or liability on behalf of Care.com except as expressly authorized by Care.com in writing.

4.    OWNERSHIP.   
a.    Proprietary Rights.   Consultant acknowledges and agrees that all output and work product resulting from the provision of Services, including, without limitation, any documentation and notes associated therewith (“Deliverables”) are and shall be deemed to be owned exclusively by Care.com. Accordingly, Consultant agrees to assign and hereby assigns to Care.com all right, title, and interest in and to such Deliverables, including without limitation, all rights therein under any applicable copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights without the necessity of further consideration. Consultant shall, at Care.com’s request, reasonably assist Care.com to establish its ownership of the Deliverables, and secure, maintain and defend for Care.com's benefit all copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights in and to the Deliverables. If Care.com is unable for any reason to secure Consultant’s action to do the foregoing, then Consultant irrevocably appoints Care.com and its agents as Consultant’s attorney in fact to do so.

5.    RESTRICTIONS ON THE DISCLOSURE OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.   

Care.com, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential © 2019. All rights reserved.





a.    Proprietary Information.   For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Proprietary Information" shall mean all proprietary or confidential knowledge and information which Consultant has previously acquired or may acquire as a result of, or in connection with, his or her relationship with Care.com concerning Care.com's business, operations, strategic planning, research and development activities, current or proposed products or services, product designs, trade secrets, competitive business information, patents, patent rights, inventions, technology, copyrights, software (including, without limitation, source code, object code and firmware), improvements, applications, processes, services, cost and pricing policies, marketing plans, strategies, forecasts, non-public information about employees, such as contact information, job duties and descriptions, compensation and performance, contacts at or knowledge of customer or prospective customers of Care.com and client, customer and contact lists and including without limitation (i) information in the form of diagrams, schematics, notes, scientific data and memoranda and (ii) information relating to methods, know-how and techniques. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Proprietary Information does not include information (1) that is or becomes part of the public domain through no fault of Consultant, or (2) that was previously known by Consultant without knowledge or reason to know of any confidentiality obligation owed to Care.com with respect thereto, or (3) that was independently developed by Consultant without using Care.com’s Proprietary Information.
b.    Nondisclosure and Non-Use Obligation.   Consultant shall only use Care.com’s Proprietary Information in connection with the provision of Services hereunder. Accordingly, Consultant agrees that he or she will not at any time, either during or after any expiration or termination of this Agreement, divulge or disclose to anyone outside of Care.com, or use or permit any third party to use, any such Proprietary Information. In addition, Consultant will not, during his or her engagement by Care.com or at any time thereafter, disclose or use or attempt to use any such Proprietary Information for his or her own benefit, or the benefit of any third party; nor may Consultant use the Proprietary Information in any manner which may injure or cause loss to, or may be calculated to injure or cause loss to, Care.com. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement or completion of the Services, whichever shall first occur, Consultant shall destroy or deliver to Care.com at its principal executive office all of Care.com’s Proprietary Information, and all copies thereof made during the term of this Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Section 5 shall apply with equal force and effect to the Deliverables resulting from the Services and to all other property of Care.com.

6.    RESTRICTIONS ON COMPETITION AND SOLICITATION.   As additional protection for the Proprietary Information, and in consideration for Care.com’s agreement to engage Consultant hereunder, Consultant agrees that (i) during the Term, (a) Consultant will not (in any capacity) engage in any activity that is directly competitive with the business or any demonstrably anticipated business of Care.com, and (b) Consultant will not (in any capacity) perform services, directly or indirectly, for any company that operates a service a primary purpose of which is to provide household payroll and tax services, or to connect individuals and families to care providers, including, without limitation, child care, special needs care, tutoring, senior care, pet care, housekeeping and personal care providers, including without limitation the companies listed on Exhibit B attached hereto, and (ii) during the Term and for one (1) year thereafter, Consultant will not encourage or solicit any employee, contractor or consultant of Care.com to leave Care.com for any reason, or divert, entice or otherwise take away from Care.com the business or patronage of any customer, supplier or prospect. Consultant understands that the restrictions set forth in this Section 6 are intended to protect Care.com's interest in its proprietary information and established relationships and goodwill with employees and business partners, and Care.com agrees that such restrictions are reasonable and appropriate for this purpose.

7.    DISCLOSURE, INDEMNIFICATION, AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.   

a.    Right to Disclose. Care.com does not desire to acquire from Consultant any trade secrets or confidential information that Consultant may have acquired from others. Accordingly, Consultant represents and warrants that he or she is free to divulge to Care.com, without any obligation to, or violation of any right of, others any and all information, practices and techniques which Consultant describes, demonstrates, divulges or in any other manner makes known to Care.com under this Agreement.

b.    Indemnity. Each party (an “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to defend, at its expense, the other party (an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any third party claim arising from (i) any alleged breach by the Indemnifying Party of this Agreement, and (ii) with respect to Consultant as the Indemnifying Party, any claim that Care.com’s use of any Deliverable infringes or misappropriates any applicable copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property right. With respect to such third party claim, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party against any damages, expenses, and costs awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction, or that are paid to settle the claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to control the defense and settlement of the third party claim, provided, however, that the Indemnifying

Care.com, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential © 2019. All rights reserved.





Party shall not settle any claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt notice of any third party claim, but the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party has been materially and adversely prejudiced by such failure. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Party shall always have the right to consult with its own counsel at its own expense. Without limiting the foregoing, if Care.com’s continued use of any Deliverable becomes impeded due to an indemnifiable claim hereunder, then at Care.com’s request, Consultant shall, at its expense, either (i) obtain for Care.com the right to continue using the Deliverable, (ii) replace or modify the Deliverable with a functional equivalent so that it is no longer subject to the claim, or (iii) if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, refund to Care.com all amounts paid by Care.com for the

Deliverable.

c.     EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR BREACHES OF SECTION 5 ABOVE (“RESTRICTIONS ON THE DISCLOSURE OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION”), IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY HERETO HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR COSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF. THE FOREGOING LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION UNDER WHICH SUCH DAMAGES ARE SOUGHT. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT AMOUNTS PAYABLE BY IT PURSUANT TO ITS INDEMINIFICATION OBLIGATIONS UNDER SECTION 7b ABOVE (“INDEMNITY”) SHALL CONSTITUTE DIRECT DAMAGES HEREUNDER.

8.    GENERAL.   This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all proposals or agreements, written or oral, and all other communications between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.

Care.com, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential © 2019. All rights reserved.

Any waiver shall be limited to the particular instance and for the particular purpose when and for which it is given.
b.     The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent. No principle of construction or rule of law that provides that an agreement be construed against the drafter of the agreement in the event of any inconsistency or ambiguity in such agreement shall apply to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
c.     The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement shall in no way effect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other term or provision of this Agreement. In the event a term or provision is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.
d.     This Agreement, the Services to be performed and all rights hereunder are personal to Consultant and may not be transferred or assigned by Consultant at any time without Care.com’s prior written consent.

g.     Defined terms and Sections 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason in accordance with their respective terms. Consultant acknowledges that because of the nature of the business of Care.com and the subject matter of this Agreement, a breach of Sections 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 of this Agreement will cause substantial injury to Care.com for which money damages may not provide an adequate remedy, and the Consultant agrees that Care.com shall have the right to obtain injunctive relief, including the right to have the provisions of this Agreement specifically enforced by any court having equity jurisdiction, in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedies available to Care.com under applicable law.

Exhibit 99.1


Care.com Announces Second Quarter 2019 Financial Results


Waltham, MA - August 6, 2019 - Care.com (NYSE: CRCM), the world's largest online destination for finding and managing family care, today is announcing financial results for the second quarter ended June 29, 2019.
“During Q2 we began to feel the effects of downward pressure on conversion and on traffic from word of mouth within the U.S. Matching business, which led to slower revenue growth in Q2 and lowered revenue guidance for the full year,” said Shelia Lirio Marcelo, Founder, Chairwoman and CEO of Care.com.  “Care@Work, on the other hand, continues to grow impressively. Overall, as the leading digital care marketplace by a large margin, we remain optimistic about the market opportunity and look forward to our next chapter of growth.”

Financial Results

Revenue for the second quarter of 2019 was $51.0 million , an increase of 11% from $46.0 million in the second quarter of 2018 .

Revenue attributable to the US Consumer offering totaled $38.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 , an increase of 7% from $35.6 million in the second quarter of 2018 .

Revenue attributable to our Other businesses totaled $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2019 , an increase of 23% from $10.4 million in the second quarter of 2018 .

Net loss was $64.8 million in the second quarter of 2019 , compared to net loss of $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2018 , a decrease of $64.6 million . The significant decrease was primarily attributable to the establishment of a valuation allowance related to certain net operating losses and deferred tax assets and, to a lesser extent, the impairment and other charges recognized on the Figure 8 acquisition.

Adjusted EBITDA was $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2019 , compared to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 2018 .

GAAP EPS (Diluted) was a loss of $2.01 in the second quarter of 2019 , compared to a loss of $0.03 in the second quarter of 2018 . Q2 GAAP EPS (Diluted) was based on 32.5 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding versus 30.6 million in the second quarter of 2018 .

Non-GAAP EPS (Diluted) was $0.09 in the second quarter of 2019 , compared to the second quarter of 2018 , which was $0.14 . Note that Non-GAAP EPS excludes the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation, adjustments relating to preferred stock and other non-recurring items, such as M&A expenses, restructuring costs and the realization of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

The Company ended the quarter with $124.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Sheila Lirio Marcelo to be named Executive Chairwoman
Today, Ms. Marcelo announced that the Company will initiate a search for a new Chief Executive Officer and that she will transition to the role of Executive Chairwoman to focus her efforts on advocating for improvements and innovations in the country’s care infrastructure to better enable families to find quality care and caregivers to find meaningful work.  Ms. Marcelo will remain CEO until her successor is appointed, participating in the search process with the other members of the Board of Directors, and transition to Executive Chairwoman at that time.
Business Highlights





Our total members grew 15% to 34.1 million at the end of the second quarter of 2019 , compared to 29.6 million in the same period of 2018 .

Total families grew to 19.8 million at the end of the second quarter of 2019 , an increase of 17% over the same period of 2018 , and total caregivers grew to 14.3 million at the end of the second quarter of 2019 , an increase of 13% over the same period of 2018 .

Future GAAP Net Income and GAAP EPS may be significantly affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments, and may also be affected by non-recurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains, which we are not able to estimate and which therefore are excluded in the calculation of the Company’s non-GAAP EPS guidance as described in this press release. Due to the nature of any such items, we are not able to estimate their significance, and it is therefore currently not practical to reconcile adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP EPS guidance to the most comparable GAAP measure.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures presented in the Company’s press release and related conference call or webcast in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we also present the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance: adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”).
A “non-GAAP financial measure” refers to a numerical measure of the Company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the Company’s financial statements. The Company provides certain non-GAAP measures as additional information relating to its operating results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information presented here should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of the Company’s liquidity. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare the Company’s performance to that of other companies.
The Company has presented: adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. We define adjusted EBITDA as income / (loss), which excludes the accretion of preferred stock dividends and issuance costs, as well as: federal, state and franchise taxes, other income (expense), net, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, accretion of contingent consideration, merger and




acquisition related costs, and other unusual or non-cash significant adjustments, such as impairment and restructuring charges. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending, which is based on the Company's estimate of the useful life of tangible and intangible assets. We define non-GAAP net income as income / (loss), which excludes the accretion of preferred stock dividends, plus stock-based compensation, accretion of contingent consideration, merger and acquisition related costs, and other unusual or non-cash significant adjustments such as impairment and restructuring charges and the realization of a valuation allowance for deferred taxes. We define non-GAAP EPS as non-GAAP net income divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, using the treasury stock method.
The Company believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplement to GAAP measures, is useful to investors in that they eliminate items that are either not part of the Company's core operations or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation. Care.com’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating the Company’s operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate underlying trends in the Company’s business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results, and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing the Company’s operating performance.

Exhibit 99.2


SHEILA LIRIO MARCELO, FOUNDER AND CEO OF CARE.COM, TO BE NAMED EXECUTIVE CHAIRWOMAN
Marcelo to Lead on Advocacy and Innovation to Improve the Nation’s Care Infrastructure; Marcelo and Board Begin Search for CEO to Lead Next Phase of Growth
 
Waltham, MA, August 6, 2019 — Founder, Chairwoman and CEO Sheila Lirio Marcelo of Care.com (NYSE: CRCM), the world’s largest online marketplace for finding and managing family care, announced today on behalf of the Company that she will assume the role of Executive Chairwoman of Care.com.  A search will begin for a new CEO ​led by Lead Independent Director George Bell and Board Director Marla Blow​, along with Ms. Marcelo​. Ms. Marcelo will serve as CEO until a new CEO is named.
As Executive Chairwoman and board member, Ms. Marcelo will advocate for improvements and innovations in the country’s care infrastructure to better enable families to find quality care and caregivers to find meaningful work. At the same time, she will champion efforts to drive systemic change across the care economy as a whole and support initiatives to leverage the Company’s data, scale and influence.
Ms. Marcelo will also advise the new CEO, in areas such as Care@Work client relationships, policy initiatives and public engagement.
In making the announcement, Ms. Marcelo said, “Solving the care challenges families face is my passion and mission, and I’m profoundly fortunate to make it my life’s work.  I’m so proud of what our team is accomplishing and the positive impact we have on millions of families and caregivers around the world.  After 13 years as CEO, I’m excited to be able to focus on broader policy and advocacy issues, while being available to advise and support our new leadership on the next phase of growth and innovation.”
Mr. Bell said, “Sheila is a visionary who saw the massive need for disruptive innovation in the care space and led Care.com to become an international resource for millions of families looking for care and caregivers looking for work.  We’ve worked together to create a transition plan designed to provide leadership continuity and steer the company into that next stage of growth.”
Ms. Blow added, “All of us on the Board share Sheila’s commitment to Care.com and we are thrilled she will be working alongside us as we conduct the search for her successor.”
Ms. Marcelo founded Care.com in 2006 after her personal challenges as a young working mother finding care for two small children and ailing parents shed a spotlight on the enormous care needs of families everywhere.  She led the company through a successful IPO in 2014 – in an era in which only 3% of companies to IPO had a female CEO.  Today, Care.com is the market leader, serving more than 34 million members in more than 20 countries.
Ms. Marcelo sits on the boards of Northwestern Mutual, Boston Children’s Hospital, and the U.S. Library of Congress Trust Fund.  She is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Massachusetts Competitive Partnership and is an Aspen Crown Fellow.  Ms. Marcelo graduated from Mount Holyoke College and received her J.D. and M.B.A. degrees from Harvard University.
