"The power of our cloud-only, consumption-driven strategy was
evident throughout 2024, as highlighted by 34% growth in Cloud
Subscription ARR, a Cloud Subscription Net Revenue Retention of
124% and 32.8% Non-GAAP Operating Margin,” said Amit Walia, Chief
Executive Officer at Informatica. “Although we encountered
unexpected headwinds in the fourth quarter, we're entering 2025
with strong fundamentals and clear line of sight to reaching $1
billion in Cloud Subscription ARR by the end of the year."
Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:
- GAAP Total Revenues decreased 3.8% year-over-year to $428.3
million. Fourth quarter total revenues included a positive impact
of approximately $1.3 million from foreign currency exchange rates
(FX) year-over-year. Adjusted for FX, total revenues decreased 4.1%
year-over-year. This result was below the midpoint of our guidance
by $29.7 million, due primarily by four factors. First, the Company
recognized lower upfront self-managed subscription license revenue
due to lower renewal rates of self-managed subscriptions. Second,
the lower average duration of those self-managed subscription
renewals further reduced up-front recognized revenue. Both factors
drove lower revenue as the Company recognizes self-managed
subscription license revenue upfront at a point-in-time in
accordance with ASC 606 accounting standards. These two factors
contributed to an approximately $46.0 million year-over-year
reduction in upfront self-managed subscription license revenue
recognition in the fourth quarter. Third, as a direct result of our
strategy to shift more of our customers’ implementation and support
work to our professional service partners, the Company observed a
further decline in professional services. Fourth, due to the recent
strengthening of the U.S. dollar, the Company experienced
FX-related revenue headwinds compared to our forecast.
- GAAP Subscription Revenues decreased 2% year-over-year to
$297.4 million. GAAP Cloud Subscription Revenue increased 33%
year-over-year to $186.8 million and represented 63% of
subscription revenues.
- Total ARR increased 6% year-over-year to $1.73 billion. Fourth
quarter total ARR included a negative impact of approximately $2.0
million from FX year-over-year.
- Subscription ARR increased 13% year-over-year to $1.27 billion.
Fourth quarter subscription ARR included a negative impact of
approximately $1.5 million from FX year-over-year.
- Cloud Subscription ARR increased 34% year-over-year to $827.3
million. Fourth quarter cloud subscription ARR included a negative
impact of approximately $0.7 million from FX year-over-year. This
result was below the midpoint of our guidance by $8.7 million, due
primarily by two factors. First, cloud renewal rates were lower
than forecast. Second, net new bookings were lower than forecast
due primarily to a higher-than-expected contribution to bookings
from on-premises maintenance and self-managed migrations to the
cloud.
- GAAP Operating Income was $63.4 million and Non-GAAP Operating
Income was $162.3 million. GAAP Operating Margin increased 650
basis points to 14.8% and Non-GAAP Operating Margin increased 150
basis points to 37.9% compared to the prior year period.
- GAAP Operating Cash Flow of $146.9 million.
- Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow (after-tax) of $180.9
million. Cash paid for interest of $32.5 million. This was higher
than the midpoint of our guidance by $24 million.
Full-Year 2024 Financial Highlights:
- GAAP Total Revenues increased 2.8% year-over-year to $1.64
billion. Full-year total revenues included a positive impact of
approximately $0.2 million from FX year-over-year. Adjusted for FX,
total revenues increased 2.8% year-over-year.
- GAAP Subscription Revenues increased 9% year-over-year to $1.1
billion. GAAP Cloud Subscription Revenue increased 35%
year-over-year to $675.5 million and represented 61% of
subscription revenues.
- Total ARR increased 6% year-over-year to $1.73 billion.
Full-year total ARR included a negative impact of approximately
$3.8 million from FX year-over-year. This result was below the
midpoint of our guidance by $19.0 million, primarily due to three
factors. First, renewal rates were lower than forecast. Second, net
new cloud bookings were lower than forecast, primarily due to a
higher-than-expected contribution to bookings from on-premises
maintenance and self-managed migrations to the cloud. Third,
Maintenance and Self-Managed ARR that was terminated after
completing a cloud migration was higher than forecast.
- Subscription ARR increased 13% year-over-year to $1.27 billion.
Full-year subscription ARR included a negative impact of
approximately $2.9 million from FX year-over-year.
- Cloud Subscription ARR increased 34% year-over-year to $827.3
million. Full-year cloud subscription ARR included a negative
impact of approximately $1.9 million from FX year-over-year.
- GAAP Operating Income was $127.0 million and Non-GAAP Operating
Income was $537.5 million. GAAP Operating Margin increased 560
basis points to 7.7% and Non-GAAP Operating Margin increased 380
basis points to 32.8% compared to the prior year period.
- GAAP Operating Cash Flow of $409.9 million.
- Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow (after-tax) of $579.1
million. Cash paid for interest of $144.4 million.
The Company has included a new eight-quarter table in this press
release titled “Disaggregation of Revenues” to help better
understand the timing of the components of total revenue, including
revenue recognized ratably over time and revenue recognized at a
point in time per ASC 606 accounting standards.
A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been
provided in the tables included in this press release. An
explanation of these measures is also included below under the
heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

First Quarter and Full-Year 2025 Financial Outlook
The Company provides the financial guidance below based on
current market conditions and expectations and it is subject to
various important cautionary factors described below. Guidance
includes the impact from expected foreign exchange headwinds versus
the prior year comparable periods.
Based on information available as of February 13, 2025, guidance
for the first quarter 2025 is as follows:
First Quarter 2025 Ending March 31, 2025:
- GAAP Total Revenues are expected to be in the range of $380
million to $400 million, representing approximately 0.4%
year-over-year growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately
2.1% year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Total ARR is expected to be in the range of $1.673 billion to
$1.697 billion, representing approximately 3.0% year-over-year
growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately 3.0%
year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Cloud Subscription ARR is expected to be in the range of $840
million to $852 million, representing approximately 29.6%
year-over-year growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately
29.7% year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Non-GAAP Operating Income is expected to be in the range of $98
million to $112 million, representing approximately -3.9%
year-over-year decrease at the midpoint of the range.
Based on information available as of February 13, 2025, guidance
for the full-year 2025 is as follows:
Full-Year 2025 Ending December 31, 2025:
- GAAP Total Revenues are expected to be in the range of $1.670
billion to $1.720 billion, representing approximately 3.4%
year-over-year growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately
4.6% year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Total ARR is expected to be in the range of $1.755 billion to
$1.795 billion, representing approximately 2.9% year-over-year
growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately 3.2%
year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Cloud Subscription ARR is expected to be in the range of $1.019
billion to $1.051 billion, representing approximately 25.1%
year-over-year growth at the midpoint of the range or approximately
25.3% year-over-year growth on a constant currency basis.
- Non-GAAP Operating Income is expected to be in the range of
$546.0 million to $566.0 million, representing approximately 3.5%
year-over-year growth at the midpoint of the range.
- Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow (after-tax) is expected to be
in the range of $540.0 million to $580.0 million, representing
approximately -3.3% year-over-year decrease at the midpoint of the
range.
The Company’s forecast is based upon market-based forward FX
rates as of the date of the forecast. On a constant currency basis
using FX rates experienced in 2024, the FX impact to fiscal 2025
guidance of expected forward FX rates is as follows:
Q1 2025
Full-Year 2025
Total Revenues
~$6.7m negative impact y/y
~$20.0m negative impact y/y
Total ARR
~$1.3m negative impact y/y
~$5.0m negative impact y/y
Cloud Subscription ARR
~$0.6m negative impact y/y
~$2.0m negative impact y/y
In addition to the above guidance, the Company is also providing
first quarter and full-year 2025 cash paid for interest estimates
for modeling purposes. For the first quarter 2025, we estimate cash
paid for interest to be approximately $30 million. For the
full-year 2025, we estimate cash paid for interest to be
approximately $118 million, using forward rates based on 1-month
SOFR and a credit spread of 225 basis points.
In addition to the above guidance, the Company is also providing
a first quarter and full-year 2025 weighted-average number of basic
and diluted share estimates for modeling purposes. For the first
quarter 2025, we expect basic weighted-average shares outstanding
to be approximately 304.4 million shares and diluted
weighted-average shares outstanding to be approximately 312.0
million shares. For the full-year 2025, we expect basic
weighted-average shares outstanding to be approximately 308.6
million shares and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding to
be approximately 316.4 million shares. These share count forecasts
do not include the impact of any share buybacks the Company may
pursue in the future.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Operating Income and Adjusted
Unlevered Free Cash Flow after-tax guidance to the most directly
comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable
effort, as certain items cannot be reasonably predicted because of
their high variability, complexity, and low visibility. In
particular, the measures and effects of our stock-based
compensation expense specific to our equity compensation awards and
employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions
are directly impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions
and unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price, which we expect
to have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial
results.

full-year 2024 financial results and financial outlook for the
first quarter and full-year 2025 is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. Pacific

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Business Metrics
We review several operating and financial metrics, including the
following unaudited non-GAAP financial measures and key business
metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify
trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make
strategic decisions:
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we believe the
following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating
performance. We use the following non-GAAP financial measures to
evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and
forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP financial
measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors
because they provide consistency and comparability with past
financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial measures are
presented for supplemental informational purposes only, have
limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in
accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including
companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP
measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their
performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our
non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A
reconciliation is provided below for our non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable financial measures stated
in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the
related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these
non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure
to evaluate our business. Starting the second quarter of fiscal
year 2024, we adjusted certain of our non-GAAP metrics for employer
payroll tax expense related to equity incentive plans, as the
amount of employer payroll tax expense is dependent on our stock
price and other factors that are beyond our control and does not
correlate to the operation of our business. The stock-based
compensation related employer tax-related expense for comparative
periods were immaterial and are not reflected in the prior period
balances.
Non-GAAP Income from Operations and Operating Margin and
Non-GAAP Net Income exclude the effect of stock-based
compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll
tax-related items on employee stock transactions starting Q2 2024,
amortization of acquired intangibles, expenses associated with
acquisitions, debt refinancing costs, sponsor-related costs and
expenses associated with restructuring efforts, and are adjusted
for income tax effects. We believe the presentation of operating
results that exclude these non-cash or non-recurring items provides
useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the
analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating
results across reporting periods.
Adjusted EBITDA represents GAAP net income (loss) as
adjusted for income tax benefit (expense), interest income,
interest expense, debt refinancing costs, other income (expense)
net, stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer
payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions starting
Q2 2024, amortization of intangibles, expenses associated with
restructuring efforts, expenses associated with acquisitions,
sponsor-related costs and depreciation. We believe adjusted EBITDA
is an important metric for understanding our business to assess our
relative profitability adjusted for balance sheet debt levels.
Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow (after-tax) represents
operating cash flow less purchases of property and equipment and is
adjusted for interest payments, equity compensation payments,
sponsor-related costs, expenses associated with acquisitions and
restructuring costs (including payments for impaired leases). We
believe this measure provides useful supplemental information to
investors because it is an indicator of our liquidity over the long
term needed to maintain and grow our core business operations. We
also provide actual and forecast cash interest expense to aid in
the calculation of adjusted free cash flow (after-tax).
Key Business Metrics
Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") represents the expected
annual billing amounts from all active maintenance and subscription
agreements. ARR is calculated based on the contract Monthly
Recurring Revenue (MRR) multiplied by 12. MRR is calculated based
on the accounting adjusted total contract value divided by the
number of months of the agreement based on the start and end dates
of each contracted line item. The aggregate ARR calculated at the
end of each reported period represents the value of all contracts
that are active as of the end of the period, including those
contracts that have expired but are still under negotiation for
renewal. We typically allow for a grace period of up to 6 months
past the original contract expiration quarter during which we
engage in the renewal process before we report the contract as
lost/inactive. This grace-period ARR amount has been less than 2%
of the reported ARR in each period presented. If there is an actual
cancellation of an ARR contract, we remove that ARR value at that
time. We believe ARR is an important metric for understanding our
business since it tracks the annualized cash value collected over a
12-month period for all of our recurring contracts, irrespective of
whether it is a maintenance contract on a perpetual license, a
ratable cloud contract, or a self-managed term-based subscription
license. ARR should be viewed independently of total revenue and
deferred revenue related to our software and services contracts and
is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those
items.
Cloud Subscription Annual Recurring Revenue ("Cloud
Subscription ARR") represents the portion of ARR that is
attributable to our hosted cloud contracts. We believe that Cloud
Subscription ARR is a helpful metric for understanding our business
since it represents the approximate annualized cash value collected
over a 12-month period for all of our recurring Cloud contracts.
Cloud Subscription ARR is a subset of our overall Subscription ARR,
and by providing this breakdown of Cloud Subscription ARR, it
provides visibility on the size and growth rate of our Cloud
Subscription ARR within our overall Subscription ARR. Cloud
Subscription ARR should be viewed independently of subscription
revenue and deferred revenue related to our subscription contracts
and is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of
those items.
Subscription Annual Recurring Revenue ("Subscription
ARR") represents the portion of ARR only attributable to our
subscription contracts. Subscription ARR includes Cloud
Subscription ARR and self-managed Subscription Annual Recurring
Revenue. We believe that Subscription ARR is a helpful metric for
understanding our business since it represents the approximate
annualized cash value collected over a 12-month period for all of
our recurring subscription contracts. Subscription ARR excludes
maintenance contracts on our perpetual licenses. Subscription ARR
should be viewed independently of subscription revenue and deferred
revenue related to our subscription contracts and is not intended
to be combined with or to replace either of those items.
Maintenance Annual Recurring Revenue ("Maintenance ARR")
represents the portion of ARR only attributable to our maintenance
contracts. We believe that Maintenance ARR is a helpful metric for
understanding our business since it represents the approximate
annualized cash value collected over a 12-month period for all our
maintenance contracts. Maintenance ARR includes maintenance
contracts supporting our perpetual licenses. Maintenance ARR should
be viewed independently of maintenance revenue and deferred revenue
related to our maintenance contracts and is not intended to be
combined with or to replace either of those items. As we continue
to shift our focus from perpetual to cloud, we expect Maintenance
ARR will decrease in future quarters.
Cloud Subscription Net Retention Rate ("Cloud Subscription
NRR") compares the contract value for Cloud Subscription ARR
from the same set of customers at the end of a period compared to
the prior year. We treat divisions, segments or subsidiaries inside
companies as separate customers when defining the End-user level.
We treat divisions, segments, or subsidiaries of a company as one
customer when defining the Global Parent level. Global Parent
customers are determined using Dun & Bradstreet GDUNS
identifiers. To calculate our Cloud Subscription NRR for a
particular period, we first establish the Cloud Subscription ARR
value at the end of the prior year period. We subsequently measure
the Cloud Subscription ARR value at the end of the current period
from the same cohort of customers. Cloud Subscription NRR is then
calculated by dividing the aggregate Cloud Subscription ARR in the
current period by the prior year period. An increase in the Cloud
Subscription NRR occurs as a result of price increases on existing
contracts, higher consumption of existing products, and sales of
additional new subscription products to existing customers
exceeding losses from subscription contracts due to price
decreases, usage decreases and cancellations. We believe Cloud
Subscription NRR is an important metric for understanding our
business since it measures the rate at which we are able to sell
additional products into our cloud subscription customer base.
Subscription Net Retention Rate ("Subscription NRR")
compares the contract value for Subscription ARR from the same set
of customers at the end of a period compared to the prior year. We
treat divisions, segments, or subsidiaries inside companies as
separate customers when defining the End-user level. To calculate
our Subscription NRR for a particular period, we first establish
the Subscription ARR value at the end of the prior-year period. We
subsequently measure the Subscription ARR value at the end of the
current period from the same cohort of customers. The net retention
rate is then calculated by dividing the aggregate Subscription ARR
in the current period by the prior-year period. An increase in the
Subscription NRR occurs as a result of price increases on existing
contracts, higher consumption of existing products, and sales of
additional new subscription products to existing customers
exceeding losses from subscription contracts due to price
decreases, usage decreases and cancellations. Our Cloud
Subscription NRR continues to outpace total Subscription NRR as
self-managed subscription customers are moving to cloud offerings
which is net neutral to Subscription NRR but will be additive to
Cloud Subscription NRR for the same cohort of customers.
Revenue Disaggregation
Revenue recognized over time:
- Cloud subscription revenue(i) represents revenues from
cloud subscription offerings, which deliver applications and
infrastructure technologies via cloud-based deployment models for
which we develop functionality, provide unspecified updates and
enhancements, host, manage, upgrade, and support, and that
customers access by entering into a subscription agreement with us
for a stated period.
- Self-managed subscription support and other revenue(i)
represents revenues generated primarily through the sale of license
support contracts sold together with the self-managed subscription
license purchased by the customer. Self-managed subscription
license support contracts provide customers with rights to
unspecified software product upgrades, maintenance releases and
patches released during the term of the support period and include
internet access to technical content, as well as internet and
telephone access to technical support personnel.
- Maintenance revenue(ii) represents revenues from fees
for ongoing support and product updates mainly for our previously
sold perpetual licenses.
Revenue recognized at a point in time:
- Self-managed subscription license revenue(i)(iii)
represents revenues from customers and partners for the license
rights to our on-premise self-managed software during a
subscription term. When customers enter into a new subscription
contract or renew an existing contract, this revenue is recognized
upon the later of when the software license is made available to
the customer or the subscription term commences.
Revenue recognized as services are provided:
- Professional services revenue(ii) represents revenues
from non-recurring fees associated with implementation, education,
and consulting services related to our software products.
(i) Included in Subscription revenue on the consolidated
statements of operations. (ii) Included in Maintenance and
Professional services revenue on the consolidated statements of
operations. (iii) The Company previously presented Perpetual
license revenues separately. Because revenues for perpetual
licenses are not material for current or past periods due to our
transition to a cloud-only, consumption-driven strategy, the
Company has combined these amounts into Self-managed subscription
license recognized at a point in time and retrospectively adjusted
past periods for comparative purposes.

(i) Included in Subscription revenue on
the consolidated statements of operations.
(ii) Included in Maintenance and
Professional services revenue on the consolidated statements of
operations.
(iii) The Company previously presented
Perpetual license revenue separately. Because revenue for perpetual
licenses are not material for current or past periods due to our
transition to a cloud-only, consumption-driven strategy, the
Company has combined these amounts into Self-managed subscription
license recognized at a point in time and retrospectively adjusted
past periods for comparative purposes.
Revenue recognized over time refers to ratable recognition over
the contractual term. Revenue recognized at a point in time refers
to recognition upon the later of when the software license is made
available or the contractual term commences. Professional services
are recognized as services are provided.
