Upland Software Reports Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results
- Grows Revenue 57% Year-over-Year
- Completes Two Acquisitions Following Third Quarter
- Achieves $75 million Annualized Revenue Run-rate
AUSTIN, Texas — December 16, 2014 — Upland Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: UPLD), a leader in cloud-based Enterprise Work Management applications, today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2014, and provided guidance for its fourth quarter and full year 2014.
Financial Highlights for the Third Quarter of 2014
| • | Total revenue was $16.3 million, an increase of 57% from total revenue of $10.4 million in the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | Subscription and support revenue was $12.4 million, an increase of 60% from subscription and support revenue of $7.7 million in the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | GAAP net loss was $2.4 million, or ($0.80) per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million, or ($1.17) per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2013. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA was $546 thousand, an increase of 11% compared to $491 thousand for the third quarter of 2013. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is provided in the financial tables that accompany this release. |
“We are pleased to report record revenues for the third quarter, with solid new customer wins and sizable expansion licenses with existing major accounts,” said Jack McDonald, Chairman and CEO of Upland Software. “Our two recent acquisitions in the fourth quarter, Solution Q and Mobile Commons, are great additions to our growing family of cloud-based Enterprise Work Management applications. We have a robust pipeline of strategic acquisition candidates, and with our IPO completed, we intend to aggressively pursue those opportunities.”
“During the third quarter of 2014, we executed well against key operating metrics and posted strong growth and gross margins,” said Mike Hill, CFO of Upland Software. “In addition, we maintained better than breakeven Adjusted EBITDA margins while making significant growth and public company platform investments.”
Business Highlights for the Third Quarter of 2014
Among other achievements in the third quarter of 2014, Upland:
| • | Added 97 new customer relationships, including 10 new major accounts, and saw sizeable expansion licenses with existing customers; |
| • | Continued to gather industry recognition across the Upland product family: Upland’s web content management product received its fourth US patent for website personalization and targeting solution; Upland’s document and workflow automation application was positioned on the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management (ECM), named finalist for Stratus SaaS of the Year Award and received an enterprise-ready rating from the Skyhigh CloudTrust™ program; and three of Upland’s Enterprise Work Management applications won New Product of the Year Stevie Awards; and |
| • | Opened our first European data center in London, a highly secure facility to serve EMEA customers. |
Recent Acquisitions
| • | On November 21, 2014, Upland completed the acquisition of Solution Q, Inc. and its SaaS project and portfolio management (PPM) application, Eclipse, expanding Upland’s PPM product stack with a purpose-built application for organizations seeking an easy-to-use, turnkey solution for their project management and portfolio visibility needs. |
| • | On December 10, 2014, Upland completed the acquisition of Mobile Commons, expanding Upland’s digital marketing engagement stack by adding a cloud-based, mobile engagement management application for driving and managing engagement through sophisticated, two-way SMS messaging programs and campaigns. |
With these two acquisitions, our annualized revenue run-rate is now approximately $75 million. For this purpose, we calculate annualized revenue run-rate by annualizing our third quarter 2014 total revenue and adding each of Solution Q‘s and Mobile Common’s annualized third quarter 2014 total revenue.
Business Outlook
For the quarter ending December 31, 2014, Upland expects its total revenue to be in the range of $16.3 million to $16.8 million, or growth of 36% at the mid-point over the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of negative ($0.2) million to positive $0.2 million for the same period. For the full year ending December 31, 2014, Upland expects its total revenue to be in the range of $64.4 million to $64.9 million, or growth of 57% at the mid-point over the full year ended December 31, 2013. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $3.0 million to $3.4 million, or Adjusted EBITDA of 5% at the mid-point for the same period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide investors with additional information regarding Upland’s financial results, Upland has disclosed in the table below and elsewhere in this press release Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. Upland provided a reconciliation below of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Upland defines Adjusted EBITDA as net loss, calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus discontinued operations, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, net, other expense (income), net, provision for income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, and acquisition-related expenses.
Upland discloses Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by management, investors and others to understand and evaluate our financial and operating performance, establish our annual operating budgets and operational goals and to assess the effectiveness of our business strategies. Upland believes it also provides more consistency and comparability with our past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of our operations and also facilitates comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. However, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or any other measure of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA together with other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss and our other GAAP results.
Upland’s earnings press releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can be found on the Investors section of Upland’s web site at investor.uplandsoftware.com.
