Company’s new InsightIDR analytics and search-based disruptive SIEM offering is well received in market and driving strong pipeline growth

Boston, MA – May 11, 2016Rapid7, Inc. (NASDAQ: RPD), a leading provider of security data and analytics solutions, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2016.

“We started the year with a strong quarter, driven by increasing demand across our product offerings as customers look to Rapid7 for a consolidated security approach focused on data, analytics and automation. We are particularly excited about the successful launch of our New Security Incident Detection and Response Solution, Rapid7 InsightIDR, which positions us to disrupt the SIEM market as it enters an upgrade cycle. Our innovative and cost effective approach meets the needs of customers that are seeking a solution that is easier to deploy with less overhead.” said Corey Thomas, president and chief executive officer of Rapid7. “As we look ahead, we’re pleased that we’ve built the strongest and highest quality sales pipeline in the history of the Company, due to interest in both our Threat Exposure Management portfolio and the new Incident Detection and Response offerings.”

“We delivered another quarter of strong year-over-year revenue growth in the first quarter of 2016 and we saw continued momentum in customer growth and renewals,” said Steven Gatoff, chief financial officer of Rapid7. “Our disciplined approach to our investments to drive revenue growth, product innovation and customer success, combined with rigor in running the business, is positioning us well to continue on our path to profitability. Encouraged by our strong Q1 results and pipeline build, we’re raising our guidance for the full-year 2016 for both revenue and the bottom line, and we continue to expect to deliver strong operating cash flow as an important milestone for 2016.”

Recent Business Highlights

Continued Strong Customer Momentum and Growth:

 

    Increased market adoption through new customer additions and expanded relationships with existing customers, ending the first quarter of 2016 with more than 5,300 customers, an increase of 37% year-over-year.

 

    Added new customers in the enterprise and mid-market segments, including Cox Health, Department of Foreign Affairs Trade and Development of Canada, American Pacific Mortgage Corporation, Bio-Reference Laboratories, HCR ManorCare and Dallas County.

 

    Improved penetration into Fortune 1000 companies year-over-year from 33% to 36%.

Technology Platform and Product Innovation:

 

    Launched new Security Incident Detection and Response solution, InsightIDR, combining our security data and analytics capabilities with our newly-integrated data search technology into our Insight Platform:

    The platform now integrates Logentries’ machine data aggregation and powerful search technology while automating data collection across the IT environment including data from endpoints, the network, cloud apps, and mobile devices, and adds important context, such as user and asset attribution.

 

    Strong uptake of InsightIDR in the first quarter driven by demand for next-generation technology in the Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) market, which is at the early stages of an upgrade cycle.

 

    Solid demand for Rapid7’s Analytic Response offering, a managed service that gives customers the ability to detect and react to anomalous compromises from the end-point to the cloud.

Continued Evolution of Strategic Professional Services:

 

    Increased our end-to-end security engagements, which are aimed at assisting our customers with both the strategy and execution of their security programs.

Continued Robust Technology Partnerships:

 

    Completed the Amazon Web certification process for Rapid7’s Threat Exposure Management product, Nexpose, so that customers can easily deploy a pre-authorized Nexpose Scan Engine Amazon Machine Image through the AWS Marketplace. This makes it easier to assess and remediate exposures for AWS cloud assets.

Second Quarter and Full-Year 2016 Guidance

Rapid7 anticipates total revenue, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share to be in the following ranges:

 

Second Quarter 2016:   
Total revenue    $35.4 to $36.8 million
Loss from operations (non-GAAP)    $(10.4) to $(9.4) million
Net loss per share (non-GAAP)    $(0.25) to $(0.23)

The second quarter net loss per share calculation assumes 41.5 million basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

 

Full-Year 2016:

  
Total revenue    $149.0 to $154.0 million
Loss from operations (non-GAAP)    $(39.5) to $(35.5) million
Net loss per share (non-GAAP)    $(0.96) to $(0.86)

 

LOGO


LOGO

 

The full-year net loss per share calculation assumes 41.7 million basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Guidance for the second quarter and full-year 2016 does not include any potential impact of foreign exchange gains or losses.

Non-GAAP guidance excludes estimates for stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related expenses and certain non-recurring, one-time items. Rapid7 has provided a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in the financial statement tables included in this press release. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Rapid7 believes that the use of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss is helpful to our investors. These measures, which we refer to as our non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and acquisition related expenses from our results in order to determine our non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss.

Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash expense, Rapid7 believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation expense allow for more meaningful comparisons between our operating results from period to period. Rapid7 also believes that excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets allows for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period as the intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition. Rapid7 also believes that excluding the impact of the costs directly related to acquisitions allows for a more

 

LOGO


LOGO

 

meaningful comparison between operating results from period to period, as these costs are unrelated to the current operations and neither comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results. Each of our non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial data are not measures of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to gross profit, loss from operations, net loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Further, stock-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of the compensation provided to our employees. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Rapid7 urges investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
