Talend Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2018 Financial Results


REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Feb. 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Talend (NASDAQ: TLND), a global leader in cloud data integration and integrity solutions, today released financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

“We finished 2018 with record fourth quarter subscription revenue of $48.4 million, up 38% year-over-over and grew total revenue for the full year by 38%,” said Mike Tuchen, Chief Executive Officer.  “As we scale our business, we are increasingly focused on the cloud opportunity and have expanded our go to market capabilities with the addition of a self-service, frictionless channel to land new cloud customers.  We believe we are entering 2019 well positioned to capture an increasing share of the data integration market.”

Key financial and operational highlights from the quarter:

  • Achieved Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) of $198.1 million for the period ended December 31, 2018, representing growth of 33% from December 31, 2017.
  • Talend Cloud, the Company’s SaaS offering, represented 25% of new ARR in the quarter and grew over 100% year-over-year for the tenth quarter in a row
  • Record quarterly total revenue of $55.7 million, an increase of 34% year-over-year
  • Quarterly subscription revenue of $48.4 million, an increase of 38% year-over-year, or 33% year-over-year adjusted to exclude the impact of adoption of ASC 606
  • Total customer count crossed the 3,000 customer mark
  • Dollar-based Net Expansion Rate reached 120% on a constant currency basis
  • Generated $1.7 million of Free Cash Flow

These highlights are inclusive of Stitch apart from Dollar-based Net Expansion Rate, which the Company will continue to report excluding the contribution of monthly and pay-as-you-go contracts. The acquisition of Stitch, Inc. closed on November 9, 2018, and contributed $0.6 million of revenue during the quarter and accounted for 2% of ARR as of December 31, 2018.

Recent business highlights:

  • Formed a strategic partnership with Databricks, enabling engineers to perform large scale data processing and analytics in the cloud using Apache Spark
  • Announced fast, frictionless cloud data ingestion for Microsoft Azure's SQL Data Warehouse with Talend’s Stitch Data Loader
  • Named a 2018 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for data integration tools based on end-user reviews and ratings
  • Promoted Laurent Bride to CTO and COO, expanding his responsibilities as cloud operations become increasingly important

As previously announced, effective January 1, 2019, Talend began to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the financial results and estimates provided herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). However, there is no difference in these financial results and estimates prepared in accordance with GAAP compared to such financial results and estimates prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board, and therefore the financial results and estimates provided herein are directly comparable to Talend’s prior disclosure on these metrics. For the year ended December 31, 2018, Talend’s Annual Report on Form 10-K will present results in accordance with GAAP.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the financial tables below. An explanation of these measures is also included below, under the heading Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

New Lease Standard Under ASC 842
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 842, Leases, which supersedes current lease standards under ASC 840. The financial information under the heading “Financial Outlook” above is prepared in accordance with ASC 842. The standard is effective for Talend for financial periods beginning on January 1, 2019, with the main change relating to the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. Talend will be required to capitalize and amortize lease assets associated with facility leases. Under the new guidance a portion of the rent expense which was charged to operations will be recognized as interest expense.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Talend considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful indicators of its performance and liquidity measures. These are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In addition, investors often use similar measures to evaluate the performance of a company. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only for understanding the company’s operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. Please see the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure included in this release below.

Non-GAAP gross profit is calculated by adjusting gross profit to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles.

Non-GAAP gross margin, expressed as a percentage, is calculated as non-GAAP gross profit divided by total revenue.

Non-GAAP loss from operations is calculated by adjusting loss from operations to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles expense and transaction related expenses.

Non-GAAP operating margin, expressed as a percentage, is calculated as non-GAAP loss from operations divided by total revenue.

Non-GAAP net loss is calculated by adjusting net loss to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles expense and transaction related expenses.

Non-GAAP cost of revenue is calculated by adjusting cost of revenue to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles expense.

Non-GAAP operating expenses is calculated by adjusting operating expenses to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles expense and transaction related expenses.

Non-GAAP sales and marketing expense is calculated by adjusting sales and marketing expense to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles expense.

Non-GAAP research and development expense is calculated by adjusting research and development expense to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangibles expense.

Non-GAAP general and administrative expense is calculated by adjusting general and administrative expense to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquired intangibles expense and transaction related expenses.

Transaction related expenses include non-recurring acquisition related costs and costs associated with follow-on offerings and the filing of a shelf-registration statement.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash from (used in) operating activities less cash used in investing activities for acquisition of property and equipment.

Subscription revenue growth on a constant currency basis represents subscription revenue adjusted to exclude foreign currency impacts. Subscription revenue on a constant currency basis is calculated by applying the average monthly currency rates for each month in the comparative period to the corresponding month in the current period. We believe the disclosure of subscription revenue in constant currency provides useful supplementary information to investors considering potential significant fluctuations in currency rates.

Annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized recurring value of all active contracts at the end of a reporting period. ARR includes subscriptions for use of installed software products and SaaS offerings, which includes Stitch, and excludes original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") sales. Both multi-year contracts and contracts with terms less than one year are annualized by dividing the total committed contract value by the number of months in the subscription term and then multiplied by twelve.
