(1) “Pro Forma Software Revenue” is a non-GAAP measure that represents Software Products & Services revenue on a Pro Forma basis.

(2) “Total Software Products & Services Customers” includes Pro Forma Software Products & Services customers as of the end of each respective quarter set forth above with net revenues in excess of $10 and also excludes any customers categorized by us as trial or pilot status. In prior periods, we provided “Ending Software Customers,” which represented Software Products & Services customers as of the end of each fiscal quarter with trailing twelve-month revenues in excess of $2,400 for both Veritone, Inc. and PandoLogic Ltd. and/or deemed by the Company to be under an active contract for the applicable periods.  Total Software Products & Services Customers is not comparable to Ending Software Customers.  Total Software Products & Services Customers includes customers based on revenues in the last month of the quarter rather than on a trailing twelve month basis and excludes any customers that are on trial or pilot status with us rather than including customers with active contracts. Management uses Total Software Products & Services Customers and we believe Total Software Products & Services Customers are useful to investors because it more accurately reflects our total customers for our Software Products & Services inclusive of Broadbean.

(3) “Annual Recurring Revenue” is calculated as Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS), which is an annualized calculation of the monthly recurring revenue in the last month of the calculated quarter for all active Software Products & Services customers, combined with Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption), which is the trailing twelve month calculation of all non-recurring and/or consumption-based revenue for all active Software Products & Services customers. In prior periods, we provided “Average Annual Revenue,” which was calculated as the aggregate of trailing twelve-month Software Products & Services revenue divided by the average number of customers over the same period for both Veritone, Inc. and PandoLogic Ltd. Pro Forma Annual Recurring Revenue is not comparable to Average Annual Revenue. Annual Recurring Revenue is on a Pro Forma basis, is not averaged among active customers and uses a calculation of recurring revenue as described above instead of annual revenue. Management uses “Annual Recurring Revenue” and we believe Annual Recurring Revenue is useful to investors because Broadbean significantly increases our mix of subscription-based SaaS revenues as compared to non-recurring and/or consumption-based revenues.

(4) “Total New Bookings” represents the total fees payable during the full contract term for new contracts received in the quarter (including fees payable during any cancellable portion and an estimate of license fees that may fluctuate over the term), excluding any variable fees under the contract (e.g., fees for cognitive processing, storage, professional services and other variable services), in each case on a Pro Forma basis.

(5) “Gross Revenue Retention” represents our dollar-based gross retention rate as of the period end by starting with the revenue from Software Products & Services Customers as of the 3 months in the prior year quarter to such period, or Prior Year Quarter Revenue. We then deduct from the Prior Year Quarter Revenue any revenue from Software Products & Services Customers who are no longer customers as of the current period end, or Current Period Ending Software Customer Revenue. We then divide the total Current Period Ending Software Customer Revenue by the total Prior Year Quarter Revenue to arrive at our dollar-based gross retention rate, which is the percentage of revenue from all Software Products & Services Customers from our Software Products & Services as of the year prior that is not lost to customer churn. All numbers used to determine Gross Revenue Retention are calculated on a Pro Forma basis.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Closed the acquisition of Broadbean, a global leader of software as a service (SaaS) technology that makes talent acquisition and engagement more efficient. Total consideration paid was $53 million in cash on a debt-free basis, subject to certain adjustments in the purchase agreement. The acquisition is expected to significantly strengthen Veritone’s AI-driven human resources product suite, building on the Company’s previous acquisition of PandoLogic.
  • Announced a series of product enhancements to Veritone GLC products, delivering greater customization capabilities to enable users in the legal and law enforcement sectors to operate with a higher overall degree of efficiency, effectiveness and seamlessness.
  • Through recent customer bookings, Veritone now services over 275 Law Enforcement Agencies (LEA), and thousands of sworn officers. This expansion also includes the cross-selling of HR Solutions with and into the LEA space, with several active customers.
  • Veritone, through its GLC division, has contracted with the United States Senate to provide them with an intelligent digital asset management platform utilizing its Digital Media Hub (“DMH”) solution.
  • Completed a partnership with Major League Baseball (MLB) to distribute short-form video content through SPORTX, Veritone’s Sports and Media Licensing offering. SPORTX is a premier intelligent marketplace enabling media buyers direct access to sports video from around the globe, maximizing additional revenue streams and increasing visibility for rights holders.
  • Secured a three-year HR Solutions SaaS agreement with a large healthcare and health-tech provider for North American job distribution with significant opportunities to expand the relationship globally.
  • Executed on $17 million of the annualized strategic cost reduction initiatives announced in Q1 2023, exceeding the annualized savings target for 2023.
  • Completed the energy group divestiture, effective June 30, 2023, in exchange for a minority interest in GridBeyond Limited, a privately-held company that delivers intelligent energy solutions.
  • Entered into a Ledgered ABL Agreement with Alterna Capital Solutions, LLC for a three-year, revolving credit facility totaling up to $30 million. The credit facility is senior secured by certain domestic accounts receivable and other assets, bears annual interest at US Prime + 1% (9.5% floor), with minimum interest of $0.25 million per year in the event the line is not drawn upon and has a one-time upfront facility fee of $0.45 million. The credit facility provides additional financial flexibility and liquidity on the Company’s balance sheet.

Financial Results for Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

Delivered second quarter revenue of $28.0 million, a decrease of $6.3 million or 18% from $34.2 million in the second quarter of 2022. Driving this decrease was Software Products & Services revenue of $14.1 million, which declined $4.3 million or 23% year over year attributed to $5.7 million of non-recurring software revenue in Q2 2022. Managed Services revenue decreased by $2.0 million, or 13%, to $13.9 million, driven by lower advertising revenue and spend, offset by growth in content licensing services. Loss from operations was $28.2 million as compared to a loss of $3.6 million in Q2 2022 driven in part by a non-cash benefit of $13.8 million in Q2 2022 associated with a revaluation of certain contingent consideration, coupled with the decline in non-GAAP gross profit. Non-GAAP gross profit of $20.2 million in Q2 2023 declined by $7.3 million year over year due to the decrease in one-time software revenue. Non-GAAP gross margin was 72%, as compared to 80% in the second quarter of 2022, and declined primarily due to the mix of revenue.

GAAP net loss was $23.3 million, compared to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, driven in part by the increase in loss from operations. Non-GAAP net loss was $13.0 million, a decline of $5.8 million compared to $7.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, largely driven by the decline in revenue and corresponding non-GAAP gross margins.

During Q2 2023, Total Software Product & Services Customers of 3,705, on a Pro Forma basis, remained relatively flat year over year, given the focus of Broadbean over the last 18 months on customer retention. Total New Bookings on a Pro Forma basis decreased by 62% to $8.4 million versus the comparable period a year ago largely driven by a reduction in spend from Amazon. Annual Recurring Revenue on a Pro Forma basis decreased 17% year over year to $107.9 million driven in large part by the decline in consumption revenue from Amazon over the trailing twelve months ended Q2 2023 as compared to Q2 2022, offset by a 7% increase in subscription-based revenue year over year to $47.7 million. Excluding Amazon, Pro Forma Software revenue growth was 19% year over year.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $62.7 million, including approximately $52.7 million of cash received from Managed Services clients for future payments to vendors.

About the Presentation of Supplemental Non-GAAP Financial Information and Key Performance Indicators

In this news release, the Company has supplemented its financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Pro Forma Software Revenue, Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross margin, Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. The Company also provides certain key performance indicators (KPIs), including Total Software Products & Services Customers, Annual Recurring Revenue, Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS), Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption), Total New Bookings and Gross Revenue Retention. The Company has posted additional supplemental financial information on its website at investors.veritone.com concurrently with this press release.

Pro Forma Software Revenue represents Software Products & Services revenue on a Pro Forma basis. Non-GAAP gross profit is defined as revenue less cost of revenue. Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as Non-GAAP gross profit divided by revenue. Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share is the Company’s net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share, respectively, adjusted to exclude interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, changes in fair value of warrant liability, changes in fair value of contingent consideration, a reserve for state sales taxes, charges related to a facility sublease, gain on sale of asset, warrant expense, acquisition and diligence costs, and severance and executive search costs. The items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as a breakdown of GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss) and these excluded items between the Company’s Core Operations and Corporate, are detailed in the reconciliations included following the financial statements attached to this news release. In addition, following the financial statements attached to this news release, the Company has provided additional supplemental non-GAAP measures of operating expenses, loss from operations, other income (expense), net, and loss before income taxes, excluding the items excluded from non-GAAP net loss as noted above, and reconciling such non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

The Company has provided these non-GAAP financial measures and KPIs because management believes such information to be important supplemental measures of performance that are commonly used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in its industry. Management also uses this information internally for forecasting and budgeting. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to revenue, net income (loss), operating income (loss) or any other financial measures so calculated and presented, nor as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Other companies (including the Company’s competitors) may define these non-GAAP financial measures differently. The non-GAAP financial measures may not be indicative of the historical operating results of Veritone or predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported in accordance with GAAP.

In addition, the Company defines the following capitalized terms in this news release as follows:

Core Operations consists of the Company’s aiWARE operating platform of software, SaaS and related services; content licensing and advertising agency services; and their supporting operations, including direct costs of sales as well as operating expenses for sales, marketing and product development and certain general and administrative costs dedicated to these operations.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and are based on management’s current assumptions, beliefs and information. As such, the Company’s actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statement as a result of various factors. Important factors that could cause such differences include, among other things, our ability to expand our aiWARE SaaS business, declines or limited growth in the market for AI-based software applications and concerns over the use of AI that may hinder the adoption of AI technologies, our requirements for additional capital to support our business growth and the availability of such capital on acceptable terms, if at all, our reliance upon a limited number of key customers for a significant portion of our revenue, including declines in key customers’ usage of our products and other offerings, our ability to realize the intended benefits of our acquisitions and divestitures, including our ability to successfully integrate our recent acquisition of Broadbean, fluctuations in our results over time, the impact of seasonality on our business, our ability to manage our growth, including through acquisitions and our further expansion into international markets, our ability to enhance our existing products and introduce new products that achieve market acceptance and keep pace with technological developments, actions by our competitors, partners and others that may block us from using the technology in our aiWARE platform, offering it for free to the public or making it cost prohibitive to continue to incorporate their technologies into our platform, interruptions, performance problems or security issues with our technology and infrastructure, or that of our third party service providers, the impact of the economic disruption caused by the recent and potential future disruptions in access to bank deposits or lending commitments due to bank failures, the impact of the continuing economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion of Ukraine on the business of the Company and that of our existing and potential customers and increasing interest rates, inflationary pressures and the threat of a recession in the United States and around the world; the impact of future economic, competitive and market conditions, particularly those related to its strategic end markets; and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Certain of these judgments and risks are discussed in more detail in the Company’s most recently-filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

(1) Core Operations consists of our aiWARE operating platform of software, SaaS and related services; content, licensing and advertising agency services; and their supporting operations, including direct costs of sales as well as operating expenses for sales, marketing and product development and certain general and administrative costs dedicated to these operations.

 

(2) Corporate consists of general and administrative functions such as executive, finance, legal, people operations, fixed overhead expenses (including facilities and information technology expenses), other income (expenses) and taxes, and other expenses that support the entire company, including public company driven costs.

 

(3) Contribution of business held for sale relates to the net loss for the periods presented for our energy group that we divested during the first quarter of 2023. We have not recast Non-GAAP Net Loss for periods ended prior to March 31, 2023 because the change in business strategy to divest the business occurred in the first quarter of 2023 and the prior period contributions were costs to operate the continuing business when incurred in the prior periods. The historical amounts would not have a major effect on prior period results.

(1) “Software Revenue - Pro Forma” is a non-GAAP measure that represents Software Products & Services revenue on a Pro Forma basis.

(2) “Total Software Products & Services Customers” includes Software Products & Services customers as of the end of each respective quarter set forth above with net revenues in excess of $10 and also excludes any customers categorized by us as trial or pilot status. In prior periods, we provided “Ending Software Customers,” which represented Software Products & Services customers as of the end of each fiscal quarter with trailing twelve-month revenues in excess of $2,400 for both Veritone, Inc. and PandoLogic Ltd. and/or deemed by the Company to be under an active contract for the applicable periods.  Total Software Products & Services Customers is not comparable to Ending Software Customers.  Total Software Products & Services Customers includes customers based on revenues in the last month of the quarter rather than on a trailing twelve month basis. Total Software Products & Services Customers includes customers based on revenues in the last month of the quarter rather than on a trailing twelve month basis and excludes any customers that are on trial or pilot status with us rather than including customers with active contracts. Management uses Total Software Products & Services Customers and we believe Total Software Products & Services Customers are useful to investors because it more accurately reflects our total customers for our Software Products & Services customers inclusive of Broadbean.

(3) “Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS)” represents   an annualized calculation of monthly recurring revenue during the last month of the applicable quarter for all Total Software Products & Services customers, in each case on a Pro Forma basis.  In prior periods, we provided “Average Annual Revenue,” which was calculated as the aggregate of trailing twelve-month Software Products & Services revenue divided by the average number of customers over the same period for both Veritone, Inc. and PandoLogic Ltd.  Annual Recurring Revenue is not comparable to Average Annual Revenue (SaaS).  Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS) includes only subscription-based SaaS revenue, is not averaged among active customers and uses a calculation of recurring revenue as described above instead of annual revenue. Management uses “Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS)” and we believe Annual Recurring Revenue (SaaS) is useful to investors because Broadbean significantly increases our mix of subscription-based SaaS revenues as compared to Consumption revenues and the split between the two allows the reader to delineate between predictable recurring SaaS revenues and more volatile Consumption revenues.

(4) “Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption)” represents the trailing twelve months of all non-recurring and/or consumption-based revenue for all active Total Software Products & Services customers. In prior periods, we provided “Average Annual Revenue,” which was calculated as the aggregate of trailing twelve-month Software Products & Services revenue divided by the average number of customers over the same period for both Veritone, Inc. and PandoLogic Ltd.. Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption) is not comparable to Average Annual Revenue.  Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption) includes only non-recurring and/or consumption-based revenue, is not averaged among active customers and uses a calculation of recurring revenue as described above instead of annual revenue. Management uses “Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption)” and we believe Annual Recurring Revenue (Consumption) is useful to investors because Broadbean significantly increases our mix of subscription-based SaaS revenues as compared to Consumption revenues and the split between the two allows the reader to delineate between predictable recurring SaaS revenues and more volatile Consumption revenues.

(5) “Total New Bookings” represents the total fees payable during the full contract term for new contracts received in the quarter (including fees payable during any cancellable portion and an estimate of license fees that may fluctuate over the term), excluding any variable fees under the contract (e.g., fees for cognitive processing, storage, professional services and other variable services), in each case on a Pro Forma basis.

(6) “Gross Revenue Retention” represents calculate our dollar-based gross revenue retention rate as of the period end by starting with the revenue from Software Products & Services Customers as of the 3 months in the prior year quarter to such period, or Prior Year Quarter Revenue. We then deduct from the Prior Year Quarter Revenue any revenue from Software Products & Services Customers who are no longer customers as of the current period end, or Current Period Ending Software Customer Revenue. We then divide the total Current Period Ending Software Customer Revenue by the total Prior Year Quarter Revenue to arrive at our dollar-based gross retention rate, which is the percentage of revenue from all Software Products & Services Customers from our Software Products & Services as of the year prior that is not lost to customer churn. All numbers used to determine Gross Revenue Retention are calculated on a Pro Forma basis.
