Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue: Total revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $55.7 million, up 23% from the second quarter of 2021 and up 31% year over year on a constant currency basis. Within total revenue, SaaS revenue was $27.6 million, up 34% from the second quarter of 2021 and up 43% year over year on a constant currency basis.

Second Quarter Key Highlights

  • ARR for the second quarter was $178.2 million dollars. Excluding the $1.5 million dollar FX headwind, ARR grew by $39.2 million dollars year-over-year, representing 28% percent year-over-year growth.
  • Reported dollar-based net retention rate of 106%, 107% adjusted for FX impact.
  • Added four new solutions on Microsoft AppSource, an online cloud marketplace providing tailored line-of-business solutions.
  • Enhanced robust data protection capabilities with the addition of Microsoft Azure backup.
  • Garnered industry recognition for continued innovation, winning the 2022 EdTech Breakthrough Award and multiple channel program awards in addition to being a finalist for 2022 Microsoft Partner of the Year Awards in education and government.
  • Through June 30, 2022, repurchased approximately 1.9 million shares under the share repurchase program at a cost of approximately $10 million.

Financial Outlook

Since March 31, 2022, we have seen an incremental strengthening of the U.S. dollar resulting in a foreign exchange headwind in fiscal 2022. We now expect the total FX impact to be approximately $4.8 million dollars on ARR and $5 million dollars on revenue. Our revised guidance assumes this trend and that the challenging macroeconomic environment will continue for the remainder of the year.

  • Third Quarter 2022 Guidance: Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $62 million to $64 million or approximately 17% year-over-year growth, 23% adjusted for constant currency. Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $1 million to $2 million.
  • Full Year 2022 Guidance: Total revenue is expected to be in the range of $230.0 million to $234.0 million or approximately 21% year-over-year growth, 26% adjusted for constant currency. Non-GAAP operating income/loss is expected to be in the range of a loss of $(3.5) million to income of $1.0 million. ARR is expected to be in the range of $202 million to $206 million or approximately 28% year-over-year growth, 31% adjusted for FX impact.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement AvePoint’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses non-GAAP measures of certain components of financial performance. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses (including percentage of revenue figures), non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin. In order for AvePoint’s investors to be better able to compare its current results with those of previous periods, the company has included a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release. These reconciliations adjust the related GAAP financial measures to exclude stock-based compensation expense. AvePoint believes the presentation of its non-GAAP financial measures enhances the user’s overall understanding of its historical financial performance. The presentation of AvePoint’s non-GAAP financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for its financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and AvePoint’s non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
