AppFolio, Inc. Announces First Quarter Financial Results

APPF

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., May 09, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AppFolio, Inc. (NASDAQ:APPF), a leading provider of cloud-based business software solutions, today announced results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

First Quarter 2016 Highlights

  • First quarter revenue was $23.2 million, an increase of 46% period-over-period.

  • First quarter GAAP net loss was $3.6 million, or a net loss of $0.11 per share; Non-GAAP net loss was $3.1 million, or a net loss of $0.09 per share.

  • Increased property manager customers 36% year-over-year to 8,816; increased units under management 27% year-over-year to 2.3 million.

  • Increased law firm customers 61% year-over-year to 6,834.

The Company used approximately $0.7 million in cash for operating activities and reported a $1.0 million loss in Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA. At March 31, 2016, the Company had $52.1 million in cash and cash equivalents and investment securities.

“We are pleased with our first quarter performance, posting solid growth in revenue and units under management, as well as good progress with our land and expand strategy," commented Brian Donahoo, President and CEO of AppFolio.  "During the quarter, we continued to delight our customers through our rapid pace of innovation with the release of AppFolio Premium Leads for our property manager customers, among other significant enhancements to our software platform. The first quarter was a strong start to what we believe will be a successful year for AppFolio.”

Financial Outlook

Based on information available as of May 9, 2016, we are reiterating our outlook for full year 2016 as indicated below.

  • Full year revenue is expected to be in the range of $100.0 million to $104.0 million.

  • Weighted average common shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 33.7 million for the full year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, we provide investors with certain Non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP net loss, Non-GAAP net loss per share, and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA which are financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share are defined as net loss and net loss per share, respectively, attributable to common stockholders before stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBTIDA is defined as net loss before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, provision for income taxes, other income (expense), net, and interest income (expense), net.

We use these Non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. These financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these financial measures may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. A reconciliation of the Non-GAAP financial measures to the most direct comparable GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

We urge investors to review these reconciliations and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
