SANTA CLARA, Calif. - July 27, 2022 - ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the leading digital workflow company making the world work better for everyone, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2022, with subscription revenues of $1,658 million in Q2 2022, representing 25% year-over-year growth, 29.5% adjusted for constant currency.
"ServiceNow once again beat expectations on the top and bottom line," said ServiceNow President and CEO Bill McDermott. "ServiceNow is the enduring platform for a fast-changing world. Our pace of innovation, customer-centricity, and consistent execution are proven. While we are not immune to the current macro environment, no company is in a better position to help customers innovate through this moment."
As of June 30, 2022, current remaining performance obligations (“cRPO”), contract revenue that will be recognized as revenue in the next 12 months, was $5.75 billion, representing 21% year-over-year growth and 27% adjusted for constant currency. The company now has 1,463 total customers with more than $1 million in annual contract value, representing 22% year-over-year growth in customers.
“Our Q2 results demonstrate the durability of our business, as strong net expansion and a best-in-class renewal rate of 99% drove a solid balance of growth and profitability,” said ServiceNow CFO Gina Mastantuono. “In the current macro environment, ServiceNow remains a core component of our customers’ digital transformation strategy and we continue to see a very strong pipeline. We are leaning into our massive opportunity with operational rigor as we remain ever confident in achieving $16B+ in subscription revenue in 2026.”
Recent Business Highlights
•During the quarter, ServiceNow hosted Knowledge 2022 which drew more than 14,000 attendees to The Hague, New York City, Las Vegas and Sydney. At the conference, ServiceNow announced new solutions to advance digital business and accelerate innovation: Service Operations Workspace, App Engine Management Center, Public Sector Digital Services, and ServiceNow Indoor Mapping.
•In Q2, the company announced Procurement Service Management, a new solution to help transform procurement across the enterprise. The company also furthered its investment in employee experience with the acquisition of Hitch Works, a skills mapping and intelligence company that will tie employee learning and development to workforce planning to address talent gaps. In addition, through its partnership with Microsoft, ServiceNow is accelerating Azure adoption for mutual customers.
•ServiceNow continues to expand its global footprint with more than 100 customers now paying over $10 million in annual contract value in Q2 2022, up more than 50% year-over-year.

Financial Outlook
Our guidance includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP growth rates for subscription revenues and cRPO are only adjusted for constant currency to provide better visibility into the underlying business trends. Since December 31, 2021, ServiceNow has seen an incremental strengthening of the U.S. dollar resulting in a foreign exchange (“FX”) headwind in 2022. Total FX impact estimated to be approximately a $220 million (~400bps) headwind for 2022 subscription revenues and a $180 million (~350bps) headwind for Q3 2022 cRPO. FX is also expected to approximately be a 1 point headwind to FY 2022 operating margin. Additionally, ServiceNow has a larger-than-average customer cohort renewing in Q4 2022. As a result, Q3 2022 will experience approximately 2 points of headwinds to cRPO growth as the contractual obligations wind down. We expect that cohort to renew in Q4 2022, at which time those headwinds will subside and we expect cRPO growth to re-accelerate quarter-over-quarter.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use the following non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
•Revenues. We adjust revenues and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. Dollars (“USD”) are converted into USD at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period (for Q2 2021, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.83 Euros and 1 USD to 0.72 British Pound Sterling (“GBP”)), rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q2 2022, the average exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.94 Euros and 1 USD to 0.80 GBP). Guidance for related growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates for the guidance period. We believe the presentation of revenues and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of revenues year-over-year.
•Remaining performance obligations and current remaining performance obligations. We adjust cRPO and remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) and related growth rates for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than USD are converted into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the comparison period (for Q2 2021, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.84 Euros and 1 USD to 0.72 GBP), rather than the actual end of the period exchange rates in effect during the current period (for Q2 2022, the end of the period exchange rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.96 Euros and 1 USD to 0.82 GBP). Guidance for the related growth rate is derived by applying the end of period exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates in effect during the guidance period. We believe the presentation of cRPO and RPO and related growth rates adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of cRPO and RPO year-over-year, respectively.
•Gross profit, Income from operations, Net income and Net income per share - diluted. Our non-GAAP presentation of gross profit, income from operations, and net income measures exclude certain non-cash or non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation expense, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs related to our convertible senior notes, loss on early note conversions, amortization of purchased intangibles, legal settlements, business combination and other related costs, and the related income tax effect of these adjustments. The non-GAAP weighted-average shares used to compute our non-GAAP net income per share - diluted excludes the dilutive effect of the in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes as they are covered by our note hedges, and includes the dilutive effect of time-based stock awards, the dilutive effect of warrants and the potentially dilutive effect of our stock awards with performance conditions not yet satisfied at forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is probable that the performance condition will be met. We believe these adjustments provide useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
•Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities plus cash paid for legal settlements, repayments of convertible senior notes attributable to debt discount and business combination and other related costs including compensation expense, reduced by purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a percentage of total revenues. We believe information regarding free cash flow and free cash flow margin provides useful information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our business operations.

Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results.

(1)Non-GAAP revenues and the corresponding growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current period.
(2)Non-GAAP cRPO, RPO and the corresponding growth rates are derived by applying the end of period exchange rates in effect during the comparison period rather than the actual end of period exchange rates in effect during the current period.
(3)Effects of dilutive time-based stock awards, in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes and warrants are included in the GAAP weighted-average diluted shares in periods where we have GAAP net income. We exclude the in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes for non-GAAP weighted-average diluted shares as they are covered by our note hedges. We include stock awards with performance conditions not yet satisfied for non-GAAP weighted average diluted shares at forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is probable that the performance condition will be met.
