SOUTHLAKE, Texas - [October 31, 2024] - Sabre Corporation ("Sabre" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SABR) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

"In the third quarter, Sabre delivered solid financial results across both segments of our business. We reported continued revenue growth and margin expansion that drove double-digit improvements in Adjusted EBITDA when compared to last year, as well as positive free cash flow. These results reflect the progress we are making against our strategic and financial priorities. I commend our team members for their dedication to our customers, and for making impressive progress against our six growth strategies.

Q3 2024 Financial Summary

Consolidated third quarter revenue totaled $765 million, compared to $740 million in the third quarter of 2023. Revenue growth was driven by positive performance in both Travel Solutions and Hospitality Solutions, including an increase in global air, hotel, and other travel bookings, and favorable rate impacts from travel supplier mix.

Operating income totaled $70 million versus operating income of $52 million in the third quarter of 2023. The improvement in operating results was driven by the items impacting revenue described above, a decrease in technology expenses due to cost savings related to our cloud migrations, lower labor and professional services costs and a decrease in restructuring charges, and lower depreciation and amortization. These positive impacts were partially offset by increased Travel Solutions incentive expenses and higher indirect tax expense.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $63 million, versus net loss attributable to common stockholders of $212 million in the third quarter of 2023. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders totaled $0.16, versus diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders of $0.61 in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in the net loss attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of 2024 was driven primarily by a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $121 million as a result of refinancing activity that occurred in the third quarter of 2023, the items impacting operating income described above, and a $16 million improvement in realized and unrealized gains and losses from our investments in securities, partially offset by higher interest expense.

Adjusted EBITDA was $131 million, versus Adjusted EBITDA of $110 million in the third quarter of 2023. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by revenue growth due to an increase in global air, hotel, and other travel bookings and favorable rate impacts from travel supplier mix, lower technology expenses due to cost savings related to our cloud migrations, and a decrease in labor and professional services expenses. These impacts were partially offset by increased Travel Solutions incentive expenses.

Adjusted Operating Income was $107 million, versus Adjusted Operating Income of $84 million in the third quarter of 2023. The improvement in operating results was driven by the items impacting Adjusted EBITDA described above and by lower depreciation and amortization.

Sabre reported Adjusted EPS(1) of ($0.04), versus ($0.06) in the third quarter of 2023.

With regards to Sabre's third quarter 2024 cash flows (versus prior year):

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included both financial measures compiled in accordance with GAAP and certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Loss from continuing operations ("Adjusted Net Loss"), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow and ratios based on these financial measures.

We define Adjusted Operating Income as operating income (loss) adjusted for equity method income, acquisition-related amortization, restructuring and other costs, acquisition-related costs, litigation costs, net, indirect tax matters and stock-based compensation.

We define Adjusted Net Loss as net loss attributable to common stockholders adjusted for (income) loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, preferred stock dividends, acquisition-related amortization, restructuring and other costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, other, net, acquisition-related costs, litigation costs, net, indirect tax matters, stock-based compensation, and the tax impact of adjustments.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as loss from continuing operations adjusted for depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, amortization of capitalized implementation costs, acquisition-related amortization, restructuring and other costs, interest expense, net, other, net, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, acquisition-related costs, litigation costs, net, indirect tax matters, stock-based compensation and the remaining provision for income taxes.

We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

We define Adjusted EPS as Adjusted Net Loss divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.

We define Free Cash Flow as cash used in operating activities less cash used in additions to property and equipment.

We define Adjusted Net Loss from continuing operations per share as Adjusted Net Loss divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.

These non-GAAP financial measures are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to monitor our ongoing core operations because historical results have been significantly impacted by events that are unrelated to our core operations as a result of changes

14

to our business and the regulatory environment. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are used by investors, analysts and other interested parties as measures of financial performance and to evaluate our ability to service debt obligations, fund capital expenditures, fund our investments in technology transformation, and meet working capital requirements. We also believe that Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted EPS assist investors in company-to-company and period-to-period comparisons by excluding differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions and the impact of depreciation and amortization expense. In addition, amounts derived from Adjusted EBITDA are a primary component of certain covenants under our senior secured credit facilities.

Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EPS, Free Cash Flow and ratios based on these financial measures are not recognized terms under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures and ratios based on them are unaudited and have important limitations as analytical tools, and should not be viewed in isolation and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as indicators of operating performance or cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures and ratios based on them exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income or cash flows from operating activities and these measures may vary among companies. Our use of these measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain recurring, non-cash charges such as stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets;

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash requirements for such replacements;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect amortization of capitalized implementation costs associated with our revenue contracts, which may require future working capital or cash needs in the future;

•Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

15

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our indebtedness;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

•Free Cash Flow removes the impact of accrual-basis accounting on asset accounts and non-debt liability accounts, and does not reflect the cash requirements necessary to service the principal payments on our indebtedness; and

•other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EPS or Free Cash Flow differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.
