Five9 Reports Second Quarter 2014 Results

SAN RAMON, Calif., Aug. 4, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Five9, Inc. (Nasdaq: FIVN ), a leading provider of cloud contact center software, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.

"Our second quarter results demonstrated the ongoing strong demand for our integrated cloud-based software solutions. We experienced solid traction across our key drivers with continued success in adding new customers. Our momentum in customer wins continued to be fueled by strong cloud adoption in contact centers as increasingly more companies are drawn to the benefits of the cloud. The response to the Five9 Summer Release 2014 has been extremely positive. We believe that the combination of our huge market opportunity and compelling secular trends, coupled with our innovative multichannel cloud contact center software, position Five9 very well for long-term growth."

- Mike Burkland, President and CEO, Five9

Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

  • Total revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased 22% to $24.7 million compared to $20.3 million for the second quarter of 2013.
  • Annual dollar-based retention rate for the period ended June 30, 2014 was 98%.
  • GAAP gross margin was 45.4% in the second quarter of 2014 compared to 39.8% for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted gross margin was 51.5% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to 43.7% for the same period in 2013.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2014 was a loss of $(6.9) million, compared to a loss of $(6.1) million for the second quarter of 2013.
  • GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $(8.7) million, or $(0.18) per share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $(8.3) million, or $(2.25) per share, for the second quarter of 2013. Included in the GAAP results for the second quarter of 2014 was a reversal of contingent sales tax liability of $2.8 million following a favorable ruling from a state revenue authority. The $2.8 million was accrued progressively in general and administrative expense on a quarterly basis from 2011 through the first quarter of 2014. This release of liability reduced the Company's GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share by $0.06 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $0.10 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
  • Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2014 was $(9.5) million, or $(0.20) per share, compared to a Non-GAAP net loss of $(7.2) million, or $(1.95) per share, for the second quarter of 2013.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their related GAAP financial measures is set forth below.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Introduced the latest version of our cloud contact center software. The Five9 Summer Release 2014 includes new native multichannel applications that support social, mobile, chat and email interactions. The new multichannel capabilities are powered by Five9 Connect, a unique intelligent technology layer that helps contact centers evaluate, prioritize and route requests. Additional major enhancements provide more mobility for supervisors and customized dashboards for better monitoring and reporting.
  • Continued momentum in adding new customers, with key enterprise wins in industries such as Financial Services, Healthcare and Education.
  • Enhanced cloud infrastructure to deliver reliable and scalable contact center software to clients. To complement our state-of-the-art data centers, Five9 upgraded its network framework for both advanced storage and carrier infrastructure, made further improvements in network security and updated the 24x7 Five9 Network Operations Centers (NOC) to provide even more visibility into application performance.
  • Named one of the fastest growing companies on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 TM . Deloitte ranked Five9 number 242 on the list of the 500 fastest growing technology companies in North America, based on strong year over year revenue growth.

  • For the third quarter of 2014, Five9 expects to report:
    • Revenue in the range of $24.0 to $25.0 million

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (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.  Five9 considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the operating performance of the company, exclusive of unusual events, as well as factors that do not directly affect what we consider to be our core operating performance. The company's management uses these measures to (i) illustrate underlying trends in the company's business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of income or expenses that are excluded from non-GAAP measures, and (ii) establish budgets and operational goals for managing the company's business and evaluating its performance. In addition, investors often use similar measures to evaluate the operating performance of a company. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only for understanding the company's operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Please see the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure attached to this release.

Forward-Looking Statements

This news release contains certain forward-looking statements, including the statements in the quote from our Chief Executive Officer and statements set forth under the caption "Business Outlook," that are based on our current expectations and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause these forward-looking statements to be inaccurate.
