Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with
GAAP, Appian provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial
performance measures. Appian uses these non-GAAP financial
performance measures for financial and operational decision-making
and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Appian’s
management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide
meaningful supplemental information regarding Appian’s performance
by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our
recurring core business operating results. Appian believes both
management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP
financial measures in assessing Appian’s performance and when
planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP
financial measures also facilitate management’s internal
comparisons to historical performance as well as comparisons to
competitors’ operating results. Appian believes these non-GAAP
financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they
allow for greater transparency with respect to measures used by
management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2)
they are used by Appian’s institutional investors and the analyst
community to help them analyze the health of Appian’s business.
The non-GAAP financial performance measures include
the following: non-GAAP subscriptions cost of revenue, non-GAAP
professional services cost of revenue, non-GAAP total cost of
revenue, non-GAAP total operating expense, non-GAAP operating loss,
non-GAAP income tax expense, non-GAAP net income (loss), and
non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted. These
non-GAAP financial performance measures exclude the effect of
stock-based compensation expense, certain non-ordinary
litigation-related expenses consisting of legal and other
professional fees associated with the Pegasystems cases (net of
insurance reimbursements), or Litigation Expense, amortization of
the judgment preservation insurance policy, or JPI Amortization,
severance costs related to involuntary reductions in our workforce,
or Severance Costs, lease impairment and lease-related charges
associated with actions taken to reduce the footprint of our leased
office spaces, or Lease Impairment and Lease-Related Charges, and a
short-swing profit disgorgement paid to us by a shareholder, or
Short-Swing Profit Payment. While some of these items may be
recurring in nature and should not be disregarded in the evaluation
of our earnings performance, it is useful to exclude such items
when analyzing current results and trends compared to other periods
as these items can vary significantly from period to period
depending on specific underlying transactions or events that may
occur. Therefore, while we may incur or recognize these types of
expenses in the future, we believe removing these items for
purposes of calculating our non-GAAP financial measures provides
investors with a more focused presentation of our ongoing operating
performance.
Appian also discusses adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP
financial performance measure it believes offers a useful view of
the overall operation of its businesses. The Company defines
adjusted EBITDA as net loss before (1) other expense (income), net,
(2) interest expense, (3) income tax expense, (4) depreciation
expense and amortization of intangible assets, (5) stock-based
compensation expense, (6) Litigation Expense, (7) JPI Amortization,
(8) Severance Costs, and (9) Lease Impairment and Lease-Related
Charges. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to
adjusted EBITDA is net loss. Users should consider the limitations
of using adjusted EBITDA, including the fact this measure does not
provide a complete measure of our operating performance. Adjusted
EBITDA is not intended to purport to be an alternative to net loss
as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from
operating activities as a measure of liquidity.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial
measures is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as a
substitute for, or superior to the financial information prepared
and presented in accordance with GAAP, and Appian’s non-GAAP
measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other
companies. For more information on these non-GAAP financial
measures, see the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial
measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures at the end of
this press release.
Appian provides guidance ranges for non-GAAP net
income (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA; however, we are not
able to reconcile these amounts to their comparable GAAP financial
measures without unreasonable efforts because certain information
necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis is
unavailable, subject to high variability, dependent on future
events outside of our control, and cannot be predicted. In
addition, Appian believes such reconciliations could imply a degree
of precision that might be confusing or misleading to investors.
The actual effect of the reconciling items that Appian may exclude
from these non-GAAP expense numbers, when determined, may be
significant to the calculation of the comparable GAAP measures.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this press release
other than statements of historical facts, including statements
regarding Appian’s future financial and business performance for
the first quarter and full year 2025, future investment by Appian
in its go-to-market initiatives, increased demand for the Appian
Platform, market opportunity and plans and objectives for future
operations, including Appian’s ability to drive continued
subscriptions revenue and total revenue growth, are forward-looking
statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Appian has based these forward-looking statements on its current
expectations and projections about future events and financial
trends that Appian believes may affect its financial condition,
results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term
business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties associated
with Appian’s ability to grow its business and manage its growth,
Appian’s ability to sustain its revenue growth rate, continued
market acceptance of Appian’s Platform and adoption of low-code
solutions to drive digital transformation, the fluctuation of
Appian’s operating results due to the length and variability of its
sales cycle, competition in the markets in which Appian operates,
AI being a disruptive set of technologies that may affect the
markets for Appian’s software dramatically and in unpredictable
ways, risks and uncertainties associated with the composition and
concentration of Appian’s customer base and their demand for its
platform and satisfaction with the services provided by Appian,
Appian’s ability to operate in compliance with applicable laws and
regulations, Appian’s strategic relationships with third parties,
and additional risks and uncertainties set forth in the “Risk
Factors” section of Appian’s most recent annual report on Form
10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Moreover, Appian operates in a
very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge
from time to time. It is not possible for Appian’s management to
predict all risks, nor can Appian assess the impact of all factors
on its business or the extent to which any factor, or combination
of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in any forward-looking statements Appian may make.
In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, Appian
cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance,
achievements, or events and circumstances reflected in the
forward-looking statements will occur. Appian is under no duty to
update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of
this press release to conform these statements to actual results or
revised expectations, except as required by law.
