Revenue of $183 million, 35% year-over-year
growth
Adjusted EBITDA of $56 million, 31% Adjusted
EBITDA margin
Dollar-based net expansion rate of 142%
ironSource (NYSE: IS) (“ironSource” or the “Company”), a leading
business platform for the App Economy, today announced financial
results for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
“We are very pleased with our Q2 results, as ironSource is proud
to be among the few technology companies that deliver high-growth
coupled with consistent profitability. We’ve had a strong quarter,
with revenue of $183 million, growing 35% year-over-year, and a
dollar-based net expansion rate of 142%, as customers continue to
grow using our platform,” said Tomer Bar-Zeev, CEO and co-founder
of ironSource. “This quarter we also signed a definitive agreement
to merge with Unity Software in an all-stock transaction, a
combination which we believe will create a unique and powerful
platform that will unlock significant value for customers and
shareholders.”
On August 9, 2022, Unity received a non-binding, hostile
acquisition proposal from Applovin. We firmly believe that our
proposed deal with Unity is clearly superior, and will deliver
greater value for Unity and ironSource shareholders.
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:
- Total revenue of $183 million, an increase of 35%
year-over-year.
- GAAP Net Income of $13 million.
- Adjusted EBITDA1 of $56 million, an increase of 22%
year-over-year.
- Adjusted EBITDA margin1 of 31%.
- Dollar-based net expansion rate of 142%.
- 446 customers each contributing more than $100,000 of revenue
in the trailing 12 months compared to 309 customers in the 12
months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of 44% year-over-year.
1 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are financial
measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with,
U.S. GAAP. Please see Annex A of this release for a reconciliation
of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable
financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP for each of the
periods presented. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted
EBITDA divided by revenue.
Second Quarter 2022 Corporate and Business
Highlights:
- As announced on July 13, 2022 ironSource entered into a merger
agreement with Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U) in an all-stock
transaction that values ironSource at approximately $4.4 billion
(the “Merger”). The proposed Merger has been approved by the boards
of directors of both companies, and is expected to close during the
fourth quarter of 2022, subject to customary closing conditions,
including regulatory and shareholder approval of both
companies.
- DISH Network Corporation’s Boost Mobile signed an exclusive
six-year strategic agreement with ironSource to leverage the Aura
solution suite to power a richer device experience.
- For the first time, Supersonic Studios, ironSource publishing
solution, was the #1 game publisher in the world in terms of
downloads, driven by six new games that reached the top 10 most
downloaded games.
- ironSource partnered with Take-Two Interactive and their 2K
publishing label to drive incremental monetization with the Tapjoy
Offerwall.
Earnings Conference Call
In light of the proposed transaction with Unity, ironSource will
not be hosting a conference call or providing financial guidance in
conjunction with its second quarter 2022 earnings release.
Key Performance Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
ironSource monitors the key business metrics set forth below to
help evaluate the business and growth trends, establish budgets,
measure the effectiveness of sales and marketing efforts, and
assess operational efficiencies. The calculation of the key metrics
discussed below may differ from other similarly titled metrics used
by other companies, securities analysts or investors. Also included
in this press release are certain non-GAAP financial measures,
including Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are
designed to complement the financial information presented in
accordance with GAAP, because ironSource management believes such
measures are useful to investors. See Annex
A to this press release for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP
financial measures to the nearest GAAP measure, which should be
carefully evaluated.
Customers Contributing More than $100,000 of Revenue
ironSource’s larger customer relationships drive scale, improved
unit economics and operating leverage in its business model, which
improves its solutions and thereby increases its value proposition
to all of ironSource’s customers. To measure ironSource’s ability
to scale with its customers and attract large enterprises to its
platform, ironSource counts the number of customers that
contributed more than $100,000 in revenue in the trailing 12
months. ironSource’s gross customer retention rate is calculated by
comparing two twelve-month periods to see how many customers in the
previous period remain active customers in the current period.
ironSource’s customer count is subject to adjustments for
acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs and other market
activity.
Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate
ironSource believes the growth in the use of its platform by
existing customers is an important measure of the health of its
business and future growth prospects. ironSource monitors its
performance in this area using an indicator management refers to as
dollar-based net expansion rate. ironSource calculates dollar-based
net expansion rate for a period by dividing current period revenue
from a set of customers by prior period revenue of the same set of
customers. Prior period revenue is the trailing 12-month revenue
measured as of such prior period end. Current period revenue is the
trailing 12-month revenue from the same customers as of the current
period end. Management’s calculation of dollar-based net expansion
rate includes the effect of any customer renewals, expansion,
contraction and churn, but excludes revenue from new customers.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
ironSource defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for
income taxes, financial expenses, net and depreciation and
amortization, further adjusted, as applicable, for asset
impairments, share-based compensation expense, fair value
adjustments related to contingent consideration,
acquisition-related costs and offering costs. ironSource defines
Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA calculated as a
percentage of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
are included in this press release because they are key metrics
used by management and our board of directors to assess our
financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested
parties to evaluate companies in our industry. ironSource
management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
are appropriate measures of operating performance because each
eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate directly to
the performance of the underlying business.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures
of our financial performance and should not be considered as
alternatives to net income as a measure of financial performance,
as alternatives to cash flows from operations as a measure of
liquidity, or as alternatives to any other performance measure
derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA Margin should not be construed as inferences that our future
results will be unaffected by unusual or other items. Additionally,
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not intended to be
measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as
they do not reflect our tax payments and certain other cash costs
that may recur in the future, including, among other things, cash
requirements for costs to replace assets being depreciated and
amortized. Management compensates for these limitations by relying
on our GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA Margin as supplemental measures. Our measures of
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not necessarily
comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to
different methods of calculation. For more information on the
non-GAAP financial measures, please see the reconciliation tables
provided in Annex A below. The
accompanying tables have more details on the GAAP financial
measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial
measures and the related reconciliations between these financial
measures. The Company has not reconciled its Adjusted EBITDA
guidance to net income because net income is not accessible on a
forward-looking basis. Certain items that impact Adjusted EBITDA
are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably
predicted. These items include, but are not limited to, share based
compensation expenses. These items are uncertain, depend on various
factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results
for the guidance period. Accordingly, a reconciliation to net
income is not available without unreasonable effort.
