LivePerson Announces First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

NEW YORK, May 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- LivePerson, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPSN), a leading provider of conversational solutions, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

First Quarter Highlights

Total revenue was $78.1 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of 18% as compared to the same period last year. Within total revenue, business operations revenue for the first quarter of 2020 increased 18% year over year to $71.8 million, and revenue from consumer operations increased 15% year over year to $6.2 million.

LivePerson signed 130 deals in the first quarter, an increase of 10% year over year, including the addition of 56 new and 74 existing customer contracts. Trailing-twelve-months average revenue per enterprise and mid-market customer increased greater than 20% in the first quarter to a record $365,000, up from approximately $300,000 in the equivalent prior-year period.

"The COVID crisis was a wake up call that the legacy call center model is a relic and incapable of supporting a remote from home workforce," said LivePerson CEO and founder, Rob LoCascio. "Whereas the corporate world turned to video conferencing applications to support office workers, LiveEngage is filling the void for the contact center. We are seeing Conversational Commerce adoption trends accelerate with many of our customers, and a new normal is emerging where brands are leading with AI-powered messaging built and managed by work from home agents. Clearly, there are macro-environmental risks to navigate, but our vision is more relevant than ever, and we are well positioned to come through this crisis a stronger company."

"LivePerson is executing well in a world that has changed rapidly over the past several weeks, and our resilient and agile business model has enabled us to deliver strong performance despite a challenging environment," added CFO John Collins. "Furthermore, our ability to deploy automations internally and to capture cost efficiencies is accelerating our path to profitability and cash generation, even as we continue to invest in our core growth drivers of AI, sales capacity and product innovation. This investment rigor is securing our leadership in Conversational AI, a view that has been validated in recent months by the numerous accolades we have received from esteemed firms such as Forrester and Fast Company."

    --  A top 50 U.S. bank

Net Loss and Adjusted Operating (Loss)

Net loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $37.0 million or $0.57 per share, as compared to a net loss of $18.9 million or $0.31 per share in the first quarter of 2019. Adjusted operating loss for the first quarter of 2020 was $10.2 million, as compared to an adjusted operating loss of $7.1 million in the first quarter of 2019. Adjusted operating (loss) excludes amortization of purchased intangibles, stock-based compensation, other litigation and consulting costs, restructuring costs, acquisition costs, interest income (expense), and other expense (income).

Net loss in the first quarter of 2020 includes charges of $10.2 million or $0.16 per share. These charges are comprised of $3.2 million of restructuring, $2.7 million of non-cash interest expense, $2.3 million of sales tax liability, $1.2 million of IP litigation costs, $0.8 million of employee benefit costs, and $0.1 million of consulting and other, net.

These charges are comprised of $1.3 million of consulting, $1.1 million of IP litigation, $0.9 million of acquisition and restructuring costs, and $0.8 million of non-cash interest expense.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release. An explanation of the non-GAAP financial measures and how they are calculated is included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company's cash balance was $171.5 million at March 31, 2020, as compared to $176.5 million at December 31, 2019.

Financial Expectations

Accounting for year-to-date contract signings and the strong volume trends we are seeing within our usage-based offerings, we expect second quarter revenue in a range of $83.0 million to $85.0 million, up 17% to 20% year over year and approximately 8% quarter over quarter.

When we look out to the remainder of 2020, we think it will take several more months before anyone has clear visibility into how the global economy will unfold. We are encouraged by the elevated usage trends in our business, our ramping partner activity, and the broad-ranging discussions we are having with our customers. We also recognize that there are macro risks stemming from the Coronavirus pandemic that can impact our sales cycles and customer attrition. Therefore, we are widening our revenue guidance range in order to balance the uncertainties of the current macro environment with the positive indicators we are currently seeing in our business. Our updated range of $340 million to $355 million calls for 17% to 22% growth in 2020.

With respect to our bottom line, we expect that our focus on internal automation, along with captured efficiencies, will reduce our 2020 expenses by $7.5 million to $16.5 million as compared to our prior guidance. As a result, we are increasing guidance for 2020 adjusted EBITDA to a range of $3.5 million to $10.5 million, from previous guidance for a loss of $3.0 million to a profit of $3.0 million. We anticipate second quarter adjusted EBITDA in a range of $1.0 million to $2.0 million, bringing the Company back to profitability one quarter ahead of schedule.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Investors are cautioned that the following financial measures used in this press release are defined as "non-GAAP financial measures" by the Securities and Exchange Commission: adjusted EBITDA, or earnings/(loss) before provision for (benefit from) income taxes, interest income (expense), other expense (income), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring costs, acquisition costs and other costs; and adjusted operating income excluding amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring costs, acquisition costs, deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and other costs.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial information to GAAP financial information is not a financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, non-GAAP financial information should not be construed as an alternative to any other measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of our operating performance, liquidity or cash flows generated by operating, investing and financing activities as there may be significant factors or trends that it fails to address. We present non-GAAP financial information because we believe that it is helpful to some investors as one measure of our operations.
