BURLINGTON, Mass., Aug. 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Endurance International Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:EIGI), a leading provider of cloud-based platform solutions designed to help small and medium-sized businesses succeed online, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2016.

“We continue to focus on a long-term vision, and our second quarter was another step in that direction, with healthy year over year growth and operational execution,” commented Hari Ravichandran, chief executive officer and founder of Endurance International Group. “As we exit the first half of the year and assess our 2016 progress, we continue to learn from our marketing efforts. Certain initiatives, such as Constant Contact, performed above expectations, while others, such as our growth products, came in below expectations and at a higher than expected marketing cost. We believe that these investments will fuel future growth in revenue and cash flows, but in-year returns for these initiatives are lower than earlier anticipated. We have revised our outlook downward accordingly. We remain confident in our ability to continue working toward a longer-term vision of providing a fully integrated suite of solutions for small businesses.”

Changes to non-GAAP financial measures
During the second quarter, the company made several changes to its non-GAAP financial measures in light of recent Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (C&DIs) issued by the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and in an effort to simplify some of its non-GAAP measures. The company has changed the definition of its adjusted EBITDA measure to GAAP net (loss) income, excluding the impact of interest expense (net), income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization of other intangible assets, stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses, transaction expenses and charges, (gain) loss of unconsolidated entities, and impairment of other long-lived assets. This revised measure does not adjust for changes in deferred revenue, and includes the impact of the following items which were previously excluded: (gain) loss on sale of assets, integration expenses, legal advisory expenses, and purchase accounting impact of reduced fair value of deferred domain registration costs. 

Further, after the second quarter, the company will no longer present adjusted revenue, and has therefore changed its average revenue per subscriber (ARPS) definition such that it is now based on GAAP revenue rather than adjusted revenue. Please see the Appendix to this earnings release for a presentation of the company’s revised definitions of adjusted EBITDA and ARPS for prior periods, as well as a reconciliation of the revised definitions to previous definitions of adjusted EBITDA and ARPS.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures described below to evaluate the operating and financial performance of our business, identify trends affecting our business, develop projections and make strategic business decisions. During the second quarter of 2016, we made several changes to our non-GAAP financial measures in light of the C&DIs issued by the staff of the SEC as described below.

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s operating performance, financial position or cash flow that includes or excludes amounts that are included or excluded from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We monitor the non-GAAP financial measures described below, and we believe they are helpful to investors, because we believe they reflect the operating performance of our business and help management and investors gauge our ability to generate cash flow, excluding some recurring and non-recurring items that are included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Our non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. For example, adjusted EBITDA excludes interest expense, which has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. We urge you to review the reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.  

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as GAAP net (loss) income, excluding the impact of interest expense (net), income tax expense (benefit), depreciation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, stock based compensation, transaction expenses, expenses related to restructuring, (gain) loss of unconsolidated entities, and impairment of other long-lived assets. We view adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and believe it helps investors evaluate and compare our core operating performance from period to period.

During the second quarter of 2016, we changed our adjusted EBITDA measure. Our previous definition of adjusted EBITDA was as follows: GAAP net income (loss) plus (i) changes in deferred revenue, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, loss of unconsolidated entities, net loss on sale of assets, impairment of other intangibles, expenses related to integration of acquisitions and restructurings, transaction expenses and charges, certain legal advisory expenses, interest expense and income tax expense, less (ii) earnings and gains related to unconsolidated entities, net gain on sale of assets and the impact of purchase accounting related to reduced fair value of deferred domain registration costs.

Please see the Appendix to this earnings release for a presentation of our revised adjusted EBITDA definition for prior periods, as well as a reconciliation of revised adjusted EBITDA to our previous adjusted EBITDA definition. After the second quarter of 2016, we will no longer present our previous definition of adjusted EBITDA.

Free Cash Flow, or FCF, is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as GAAP cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and capital lease obligations. We believe that FCF provides investors with an indicator of our ability to generate positive cash flows after meeting our obligations with regard to capital expenditures (including capital lease obligations).  

Adjusted Revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as GAAP revenue adjusted to exclude the impact of any fair value adjustments to deferred revenue resulting from acquisitions. We have historically presented adjusted revenue in order to show our revenue prior to purchase accounting charges related to our acquisitions. After the second quarter of 2016, we will no longer present adjusted revenue.

Total Subscribers - We define total subscribers as the approximate number of subscribers that, as of the end of a period, are identified as subscribing directly to our products on a paid basis, excluding accounts that access our solutions via resellers or that purchase only domain names from us. Subscribers of more than one brand, and subscribers with more than one distinct billing relationship or subscription with us, are counted as separate subscribers. Total subscribers for a period reflects adjustments to add or subtract subscribers as we integrate acquisitions and/or are otherwise able to identify subscribers that meet, or do not meet, this definition of total subscribers. In the second quarter of 2016, the net impact of these adjustments was negative, reducing the net increase in total subscribers during the quarter by approximately 9%.

Average Revenue Per Subscriber (ARPS) - We calculate ARPS as the amount of revenue we recognize in a period, including marketing development funds and other revenue not received from subscribers, divided by the average of the number of total subscribers at the beginning of the period and at the end of the period, which we refer to as average subscribers for the period. We believe ARPS is an indicator of our ability to optimize our mix of products and services and pricing and sell products and services to new and existing subscribers. As we on-board new subscribers, we typically on-board them at introductory prices, which negatively impacts ARPS. Furthermore, ARPS can be impacted by our acquisitions due to acquisition-related purchase accounting charges and because the acquired subscribers may have higher or lower than average ARPS, and by adjustments to our total subscribers figure as described above. ARPS does not represent an exact measure of the average amount a subscriber spends with us each month, since our calculation of ARPS is impacted by revenues generated by non-subscribers.

During the second quarter of 2016, we changed our definition of ARPS such that it is now based on GAAP revenue rather than adjusted revenue. Under our previous definition of ARPS, we divided adjusted revenue, rather than GAAP revenue, by average subscribers for the period in order to obtain ARPS.

Please see the Appendix to this earnings release for a presentation of our revised definition of ARPS for prior periods, as well as a reconciliation of the revised definition to our previous ARPS definition. After the second quarter of 2016, we will no longer present our previous definition of ARPS.

(1) The gain of unconsolidated entities is reported on a net basis for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The six months ended June 30, 2016 includes an $11.4 million gain on our investment in WZ UK Ltd. This gain was generated on January 6, 2016, when we increased our ownership stake in WZ UK Ltd. from 49% to 57.5%, which required a revaluation of our existing investment to its implied fair value. This $11.4 million gain was partially offset by our proportionate share of net losses from unconsolidated entities of $1.0 million.
(2) Consists of legal and related advisory expenses associated with securities class action litigation and related matters and the SEC subpoenas received by us and Constant Contact in December 2015.
