EverCommerce Announces Financial Results for Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2021

DENVER, Aug. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EverCommerce, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVCM), a leading service commerce platform, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

“EverCommerce’s second quarter results were highlighted by 53% revenue growth and adjusted EBITDA margins that exceeded 20%. We continue to see improvement in the underlying trends across our solutions," said Eric Remer, EverCommerce’s Founder and CEO.

Remer continued, “EverCommerce is revolutionizing the service SMB market with vertically-tailored software solutions in the Home Services, Health Services and Fitness and Wellness sectors that increase our customers' revenue, enhance their efficiency, and improve their customers' user experience. This is a massive and underpenetrated market that is at the early stages of digitizing its workflows. We believe the success of our recent IPO will enable us to fully capitalize on our market opportunity and scale to a much larger, more profitable company that generates significant value for our customers and shareholders."

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

• Revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was $121.1 million, an increase of 53% compared to $79.3 million for the second quarter of 2020.
• Pro forma revenue growth rate was 31% in Q2 2021 and 21% year-to-date.
• Net loss was $24.3 million, or ($0.56) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. This compares to a net loss of $13.7 million, or ($0.65) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020.
• Adjusted EBITDA was $27.6 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $19.4 million for the second quarter of 2020.
• Cash flow provided by operations was $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to cash flow provided by operations of $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
• Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was $202.6 million as of June 30, 2021 compared to $98.3 million at December 31, 2020. Total debt was $766.2 million at June 30, 2021, implying net leverage of 4.3x using Credit Agreement Defined Adjusted EBITDA. As adjusted to reflect the proceeds from our IPO, our private placement in July, the refinancing of our existing credit facility in connection with the IPO, exercise of the underwriter's over-allotment option and subsequent partial pay down of our revolver, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash would have been approximately $203.4 million and total debt would have been approximately $381.5 million, implying as adjusted net leverage of 1.4x using Credit Agreement Defined Adjusted EBITDA. As adjusted cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and as adjusted net leverage as of June 30, 2021 does not reflect the use of cash to acquire Timely which was approximately $99.9 million.

A reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Other Second Quarter and Recent Highlights

• In July, the Company completed its initial public offering and listed its shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “EVCM”. EverCommerce sold 19.1 million shares of its Class A common stock at a price of $17.00 per share, for a total net proceeds of $303.9 million. Concurrently, the Company sold 4.4 million shares to entities affiliated with Silver Lake, an existing shareholder, in a private placement for total net proceeds of $75 million. On July 29, 2021, the underwriters of the IPO exercised their over-allotment option, resulting in the sale of an additional 2.8 million shares at the IPO price of $17.00 per share and after underwriter discounts, net proceeds were $43.9 million.
• Announced the acquisition of Timely, a global appointment booking and business management software company used by spas and salons across the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. Timely joins the EverCommerce suite of integrated SaaS solutions across business management, marketing, customer engagement, billing and payments.
• Announced the acquisition of Medical Design Technologies (“MDTech”), a leading provider of mobile charge capture solutions. Based in Houston, Texas, MDTech provides accurate, efficient, and simple charge capture and analytics solutions to small-and medium-sized practices across 20 different specialties and 29 states.
  

Business Outlook

Based on information as of today, August 9, 2021, the Company is issuing the following financial guidance.

Our third quarter and full year 2021 outlook includes contribution from Timely, but not MDTech. We will update our outlook to include MDTech when we report our third quarter results.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2021:

• Revenue is expected to be in the range of $122 million to $124 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $23 million to $24 million.

Full Year 2021:

• Revenue is expected to be in the range of $471 million to $474 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $100 million to $102 million.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to certain charges excluded from this non-GAAP measure; in particular, the measures and efforts of stock-based compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price. It is important to note that these charges could be material to EverCommerce's results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Key Business and Financial Metrics

Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our consolidated operating performance over time. Management also uses this metric for planning and forecasting purposes.

Our year-over-year Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate is calculated as though all acquisitions closed as of the end of the latest period were closed as of the first day of the prior year period presented. In calculating Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate, we add the revenue from acquisitions for the reporting periods prior to the date of acquisition (including estimated purchase accounting adjustments) to our results of operations, and then calculate our revenue growth rate between the two reported periods. As a result, Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate includes pro forma revenue from businesses acquired during the period, including revenue generated during periods when we did not yet own the acquired businesses. In including such pre acquisition revenue, Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate allows us to measure the underlying revenue growth of our business as it stands as of the end of the respective period, which we believe provides insight into our then-current operations. Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rate does not represent organic revenue generated by our business as it stood at the beginning of the respective period. Pro Forma Revenue Growth Rates are not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or actual results that might have been achieved had the acquisitions been consummated on the first day of the prior year period presented. We believe that this metric is useful to investors in analyzing our financial and operational performance period over period and evaluating the growth of our business, normalizing for the impact of acquisitions. This metric is particularly useful to management due to the number of acquired entities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EverCommerce has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). EverCommerce uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes that use of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing EverCommerce’s financial results with other companies in its industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with EverCommerce’s condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of EverCommerce’s historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.

Adjusted Gross Profit. Adjusted Gross Profit is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our operational performance, as it represents the results of revenues and direct costs, which are key components of our operations. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors and other interested parties in analyzing our financial performance because it reflects the gross profitability of our operations, and excludes the indirect costs associated with our sales and marketing, product development, general and administrative activities, and depreciation and amortization, and the impact of our financing methods and income taxes.

We calculate Adjusted Gross Profit as gross profit adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization allocated to cost of revenues. Gross profit is calculated as total revenues less cost of revenues (exclusive of depreciation and amortization), amortization of developed technology, amortization of capitalized software and depreciation expense (allocated to cost of revenues). Adjusted Gross Profit should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income or loss, net earnings or loss and other U.S. GAAP measures of income (loss) or profitability.

Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure that our management uses to assess our financial performance and is also used for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors and other interested parties in analyzing our financial performance because it provides a comparable overview of our operations across historical periods. In addition, we believe that providing Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, different tax rates, and/or different forms of employee compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management team as an additional measure of our performance for purposes of business decision-making, including managing expenditures, and evaluating potential acquisitions. Period-to-period comparisons of Adjusted EBITDA help our management identify additional trends in our financial results that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparisons of net income or income from continuing operations. In addition, we may use Adjusted EBITDA in the incentive compensation programs applicable to some of our employees. Our Management recognizes that Adjusted EBITDA has inherent limitations because of the excluded items, and may not be directly comparable to similarly titled metrics used by other companies.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest and other expense, net, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, other amortization, acquisition related costs, stock-based compensation, and other non-recurring costs. Other amortization includes amortization for capitalized contract acquisition costs. Acquisition related costs are specific deal-related costs such as legal fees, financial and tax due diligence, consulting and escrow fees. Other non-recurring costs are expenses such as system implementation costs and severance related to planned restructuring activities. Acquisition related costs and other non-recurring costs are excluded as they are not representative of our underlying operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA should be viewed as a measure of operating performance that is a supplement to, and not a substitute for, operating income or loss, net earnings or loss and other U.S. GAAP measures of income (loss). The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis.
