year-over-year

Slack Technologies, Inc., (NYSE: WORK) today reported financial
results for its fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2020.
Management Commentary:
“We had a phenomenal quarter, headlined by continued
acceleration in new paid customer growth, with 12,000 net paid
customer additions, up 140% from the same quarter last year,” said
Stewart Butterfield, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder at
Slack. “The accelerating growth is partly driven by increased
awareness and demand due to the work from home environment, but we
believe the larger portion comes from continued product momentum
which shows up in the new user experience and, especially, from
Slack Connect driving viral growth. Finally, we're thrilled by the
continued momentum in the enterprise segment where we're seeing
market leaders overwhelmingly choosing Slack for its unmatched
security, scalability, flexibility, and user experience.”
“We saw improving trends in the overall buying environment and
large enterprises continue to standardize on Slack. We ended the
quarter with 1,080 customers spending more than $100,000 annually,
up 32% year-on-year,” said Allen Shim, Chief Financial Officer at
Slack. “Our focus remains on investing as we help define the future
of work. We also continue to drive leverage and delivered record
free cash flow in the quarter.”

Earnings Conference
Call:
As a result of the earlier announcement that Salesforce plans to
acquire Slack, the conference call previously scheduled for
December 9, 2020 to discuss Slack’s financial results has been
canceled.
Non-GAAP Financial
Measures:
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the
following non-GAAP financial measures: Calculated Billings, Free
Cash Flow, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP
research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing
expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP
operating loss, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income
(loss), and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. Certain of these
non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation and
related employer payroll taxes, amortization of debt discount and
issuance costs, and amortization of intangible assets.
Slack believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results
provide useful information to management and investors regarding
certain financial and business trends relating to Slack’s financial
condition and results of operations. Slack’s management uses these
non-GAAP measures to compare Slack’s performance to that of prior
periods for trend analysis, and for budgeting and planning
purposes. Slack 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
Slack’s financial measures with other software companies, many of
which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. The
non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental
informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute
for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and
may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by
other companies.
Management 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 and
income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Slack’s
financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent
limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management
about which expenses and income are excluded or included in
determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Slack urges
investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial
measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which it
includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial results,
including this press release, and not to rely on any single
financial measure to evaluate Slack’s business.
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
release.
Forward-Looking
Statements:
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited
to, statements regarding our financial outlook, product

including but not limited to, risks detailed in Slack’s Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2020. Further
information on potential risks that could affect actual results
will be included in the subsequent periodic and current reports and
other filings that Slack makes with the Securities and Exchange
Commission from time to time, including its Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2020. The
forward-looking statements included in this press release represent
