ChannelAdvisor Announces Second Quarter 2017 Financial Results
Revenue of $30.0 million increases 11 percent year-over-year
GAAP net loss of $(4.0) million
Adjusted EBITDA of $1.1 million exceeds guidance
Research Triangle Park, NC - August 3, 2017 - ChannelAdvisor Corporation (NYSE: ECOM), a leading provider of cloud-based e-commerce solutions that enable retailers and branded manufacturers to increase global sales, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
"Our second quarter results exceeded our guidance for both revenue and adjusted EBITDA," said David Spitz, CEO of ChannelAdvisor. "I was especially pleased to see our customers' success translate into very strong variable revenue growth, helping us to drive the fastest revenue growth rate we've had in several quarters. Further, we continued to see increasing average revenue per customer. This reflects our focus on attracting large, high-quality customers as well as increasing revenue from existing customers, as we share in the success they achieve from our solutions. Demand for our technology continued to grow and drive our momentum in the marketplace. As such, we remain optimistic that our business momentum will produce improving revenue growth trends as we look ahead and continue to focus on delivering profitable growth."

Key Operating Metrics
Average revenue per customer is revenue divided by the average monthly number of customers during the period, which is calculated by taking the sum of the number of customers at the end of each month in the period and dividing by the number of months in the period.
Number of customers includes all customers who subscribe to at least one of our solutions, but excludes customers acquired from our acquisition of HubLogix and customers who subscribe only to certain legacy product offerings that are no longer part of our strategic focus.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net loss and adjusted EBITDA.
ChannelAdvisor believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors relating to ChannelAdvisor’s financial condition and results of operations. The company’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, and for budgeting and planning purposes. The company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the company’s financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and that it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making.
Management of the company does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the company’s financial statements. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures together with GAAP results. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results and guidance prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Reconciliation tables of the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release are included with the financial tables at the end of this
Exhibit 99.1
release. ChannelAdvisor urges investors to review the reconciliation and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the company’s business. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly named non-GAAP measures differently than we do, which limits their usefulness in comparing our financial results with theirs.
