Edgio Reports First Quarter 2023 Results

By: Edgio, Inc. via Business Wire

August 15, 2023 at 08:30 AM EDT

Q1 2023 revenue of $101.9 million, 84% year over year growth

Applications bookings QTD in 3Q 2023 already ahead of 2Q 2023 levels and up more than 90% from 1Q 2023 bookings

On target to achieve $85-$90 million of run rate savings by YE23

Capital expenditure, net of payments from ISPs, was $3.6 million or 3.6% of revenue

Edgio, Inc. (Nasdaq: EGIO) (Edgio), the platform of choice to power unmatched speed, security and simplicity at the edge, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023 along with the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2023. The company expects to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 (“Q2 2023 Form 10-Q”), in September 2023. Due to the delay in filing the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q, the company expects a notice from The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that it is not in compliance with the requirements for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”). The company expects to remedy this deficiency with the filing of the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q in September 2023.

“In the first quarter, we took substantial steps to accelerate progress in each of our product offerings. In Applications, we strengthened our security offering by adding DDoS scrubbing and enhanced WAAP capabilities, further establishing Edgio as a leading security company. In Media, we brought on streaming industry pioneer, Eric Black, as GM/ CTO to spearhead growth of our entire media portfolio,” said Bob Lyons, President and CEO of Edgio. "These enhanced products, new leadership, and improved execution are resulting in reduced churn, increased pipeline conversion, higher attach rates, and increased cross sell/upsell opportunities. This is reflected in our quarter-to-date Applications bookings, which are already ahead of second quarter levels. We expect this momentum to continue, and combined with our cost savings plans, we believe we have established a strong foundation for profitable growth in 2024."

Recent Business Highlights:

Continued new product momentum with API Security solution in General Availability
Recognized as a leader in Content Delivery Networks and Edge Computing by technology research firm Frost & Sullivan
QTD Applications bookings already ahead of second quarter levels with new client wins and existing client expansion
QTD Applications bookings are up 90% from total bookings in 1Q 2023
On track to operationalize approximately $85-90 million of expected run rate cost savings, by end of 2023 and forecasted higher by end of 2024

First Quarter Financial highlights:

Revenue

Revenue of $101.9 million, 84.2% year over year growth due to the inclusion of the Edgecast acquisition. Sequential decline of 6.3% was driven by seasonality and previously communicated churn.

Gross margin

GAAP gross margin was 30.4%, compared to 30.4% year over year and 36.6% quarter over quarter.
Non-GAAP gross margin was 31.2%, compared to 31.1% year over year and 38.1% quarter over quarter.
Cash gross margin was 34.7%, compared to 41.7% year over year and 42.3% quarter over quarter.

Operating expenses

GAAP operating expenses, including share-based compensation of $4.5 million, restructuring charges of $0.5 million to achieve cost synergies, restatement related expenses of $2.2 million, and acquisition and legal related expenses of $1.0 million, were 62.4% of revenue versus 78.9% in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Non-GAAP operating expenses, excluding share-based compensation, restructuring charges, restatement related expenses, and acquisition and legal related expenses, were 54.3% of revenue versus 57.3% in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Cash operating expenses, excluding share-based compensation, restructuring charges, restatement related expenses, and acquisition and legal related expenses, depreciation and amortization were 48.8% of revenue versus 51.6% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Sequential decline in cash operating expenses was primarily due to realization of cost savings.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was a loss of $14.4 million, compared to a loss of $10.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 due to lower gross profit partially offset by realization of cost savings.

Capital Expenditure

Capital expenditure, net of payments from ISPs, during the quarter was $3.6 million, or 3.6% of revenue.
We expect to continue to be efficient with our capital expenditure as a result of stronger operational discipline, leveraging our excess capacity and due to higher revenue contribution from software solutions that have lower capital requirements.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $48.2 million for the quarter, compared to $74.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.
Cash flow used by operations during the quarter was $24.1 million.

2023 Guidance:

"With our new products and refined go-to-market, combined with the execution on our target run rate cost savings of approximately $85-90 million by year-end 2023, we remain optimistic about our profitable growth prospects in 2024,” said Stephen Cumming, CFO. “As we detailed last quarter, we expect to deliver mid to high single digit sequential decline in the second quarter of 2023 and then expect the normal increase due to seasonality in the fourth quarter. We expect cash gross margin to keep pace with revenue trends consistent with having a high fixed cost structure. We expect second quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA loss to be the bottom for the year with reduced losses in the third quarter and break even in the fourth quarter."

For 2023, our guidance is unchanged and we are currently expecting:

Revenue between $392 million and $398 million.
Adjusted EBITDA range of negative $37 million to negative $31 million, implying Adjusted EBITDA margin between negative 9.5% and negative 8%.
Capital expenditure between $10 million and $13 million, implying 2.5% and 3.5% of revenue.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles (“Non-GAAP”) net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that our management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net loss to be an important indicator of our overall business performance. We define Non-GAAP net loss to be U.S. GAAP net loss, adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, non-cash interest expense, restructuring charges, acquisition and legal related expenses, amortization of intangible assets, impairment of private company investment, and restatement related expenses. We believe that EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net loss, adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest and other (income) expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to exclude share-based compensation, restructuring charges, acquisition and legal related expenses, and restatement related expenses. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. Our management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures because, collectively, they provide valuable information on the performance of our on-going operations, and they also enable us to compare against our peer companies and against other companies in our industry and adjacent industries. We believe these measures also provide similar insights to investors, and enable investors to review our results of operations “through the eyes of management.”

Furthermore, our management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to assist them in making decisions regarding our strategic priorities and areas for future investment and focus. The terms Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:

Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
These measures do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the cash requirements necessary for litigation costs, including provision for litigation and litigation expenses;
These measures do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;
These measures do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
While share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and
Other companies may calculate Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP financial results and using Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for management’s analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented in thousands.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In accordance with the requirements of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures. Per share amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures are presented without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures because the GAAP financial measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments reflected in our reconciliation of historic non-GAAP financial measures, the amounts of which, based on historical experience, could be material.
