Exhibit 99.1

 

November 3, 2021

Dear Fellow Shareholders:

We continue to see broad-based strength across all products, customer segments and geographies. We expect this positive momentum to carry into 2022.

For Q3 2021:

 

GAAP Revenue grew 92% to approximately $70 million; Adjusted Revenue grew 97% to approximately $71.5 million.

 

Net income grew 47% to approximately $10 million; Adjusted EBITDA grew 125% to approximately $28.2 million. Net income margin was 14%. Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 39%.

 

GAAP Gross margin was 75%; Adjusted Gross Margin was 78%.

 

Longer-Term Contracts represented 37% of revenue.

 

Cash flow from operations was $23 million.  Free Cash Flow was $20.1 million.

We have started the planning process for 2022. Our objectives are to grow GAAP Revenue organically in the high teens or better. We expect our Adjusted EBITDA Margins to cross over the 40% threshold as we continue towards our long term target of 50% Adjusted EBITDA Margins. We remain very focused on increasing the percentage of our revenues from Longer-Term Contracts.

These healthy growth rates are being supported by multiple tailwinds: a healthy IT spending environment, the modernization of the sales and marketing organization through automation and data, a focus on privacy and compliance which drives demand for our first party purchase intent data and our permission-based audience and the re-allocation of marketing budgets from face-to-face events to our data products and online marketing solutions. We believe we are well positioned to take advantage of these large trends.

All of the above trends support the continued growth of Priority Engine revenue, which was up 20% in the quarter. We’re very excited about our future prospects for Priority Engine based on our 2021 product enhancements, which culminate in a major release later this month that significantly extends our ability to service both sales and marketing use cases. It’s worth noting that Priority Engine was originally designed and optimized for marketing use cases, and we’ve spent much of the last two years making steady progress on making the data more easily accessible to individual sellers. With this release, we’ll roll out a revamped user interface that allows sellers to personalize their experience and view individual important buying process milestones. Marketers will also benefit from the availability of individual prospects identified through our BrightTALK platform for the first time. Our pricing and packaging strategy for Priority Engine with this upcoming release will now allow us to sell separate modules focused separately on sales or marketing use cases, providing a more customized experience and upsell opportunities as we head into 2022. The strength of our Priority Engine offering creates a powerful halo for all of our products. We are seeing record demand for the products we primarily sell on a quarterly basis. Our long-term strategy is to convert these programs to Longer-Term Contracts.

Over the past quarter, we continued to make good progress on integrating our recent acquisitions and we are benefitting from cross sale and upsell opportunities. We believe this will continue to help drive growth in 2022. While there is nothing imminent, today we announced that we have opened a $75 million line of credit to provide additional financial flexibility.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $104.5 million in cash and investments.

 

1 of 11

 


 

We have issued and outstanding approximately $201 million of senior unsecured convertible notes, which are convertible into our common stock contingent upon certain conditions contained within the note indenture being met.  The convertible notes bear interest at .0125% per annum, which payments are due semi-annually (June and December). The convertible notes mature in December 2025.  

Q4 and 2021 Guidance

For Q4 2021, we expect revenue to be between $73.5 and $75.5 million and Adjusted Revenue to be between $75 million and $77 million. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), we are not allowed to recognize approximately $1.5 million in the quarter related to the acquisition of deferred revenue.  We expect Q4 2021 net income to be between $6.0 million and $6.4 million and Adjusted EBITDA to be between $30 million and $31 million.

For the full year 2021, we are raising our annual revenue forecast. We expect revenue to be between $259 and $261 million. We expect Adjusted Revenue to be between $271 million and $273 million. We expect net income to be between $22.9 million and $23.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA to be between $103 million and $104 million.

Summary

We are expecting a strong finish to 2021. We are pleased that we’ve seen our revenue growth rate accelerate and our margins expand. We are very optimistic about our prospects in 2022.

Sincerely,

Michael Cotoia

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This letter and the accompanying tables include a discussion of Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Share and Free Cash Flow, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures which are provided as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP.

 

“Adjusted Revenue” means revenue recorded in accordance with GAAP plus the impact of fair value adjustments to acquired unearned revenue in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.

 

“Adjusted Gross Profit” means gross profit adding back the effects of stock compensation, depreciation and amortization, and the impact of fair value adjustments to acquired unearned revenue.

 

“Adjusted Gross Margin” means Adjusted Gross Profit divided by Adjusted Revenue.

 

“Adjusted EBITDA” means earnings before net interest, other income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, as further adjusted to include the impact of the fair value adjustments to acquired unearned revenue and to exclude stock-based compensation and other one-time charges, such as costs related to acquisitions, if any.

 

“Adjusted EBITDA Margin” means Adjusted EBITDA divided by Adjusted Revenue.

 

“Free Cash Flow” means the change in net cash provided by operations less purchases of equipment and other capitalized assets.

 

“Adjusted Net Income” means net income adjusted for amortization, stock-based compensation, foreign exchange, interest on our debt instruments, impact of the fair value adjustment to acquired unearned revenue and one-time charges, if any, as further adjusted for the related income tax impact of the adjustments.

 

“Adjusted Net Income Per Share” means Adjusted Net Income divided by adjusted weighted average diluted shares outstanding. We adjust the average diluted shares outstanding to include shares on the if converted basis for our convertible note.

 

Longer-Term Contracts” means contracts in excess of 270 days.

 

These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. In addition, our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, Adjusted Net Income

 

3 of 11

 


 

and Adjusted Net Income Per Share, may not be comparable to the definitions as reported by other companies. We believe that these measures provide relevant and useful information to enable us and investors to compare our operating performance using an additional measurement. We use these measures in our internal management reporting and planning process as primary measures to evaluate the operating performance of our business, as well as potential acquisitions.

 

The components of Adjusted EBITDA include the key revenue and expense items for which our operating managers are responsible and upon which we evaluate their performance. In the case of senior management, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Revenue growth and the percentage of revenue under Longer-Term Contracts are used as the principal financial metrics in their annual incentive compensation program. Adjusted EBITDA is also used for planning purposes and in presentations to our Board of Directors. Adjusted Net Income is useful to us and investors because it presents an additional measurement of our financial performance, taking into account depreciation, which we believe is an ongoing cost of doing business, but excluding the impact of certain non-cash expenses and items not directly tied to the core operations of our business, such as costs related to acquisitions and interest on our debt instruments. Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by operating activities excluding purchases of property and equipment and other capitalized assets. Free Cash Flow provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases of property and equipment and other capitalized assets, which can then be used to, among other things, invest in the business and make strategic acquisitions.  A limitation of the utility of Free Cash Flow as a measure of financial performance is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for the period. Furthermore, we intend to provide these non-GAAP financial measures as part of our future earnings discussions and, therefore, the inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures will provide consistency in our financial reporting. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP is provided in the accompanying tables, except that full reconciliations of certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures are not provided because the Company is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and financial impact of certain items, including but not limited to, stock-based compensation and other one-time charges such as acquisitions.
