Guidance for non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP
net income attributable to BlackLine, and non-GAAP net income
attributable to BlackLine per share excludes specified items from
the corresponding GAAP financial measures as outlined below under
“Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and as detailed in the
reconciliations of non-GAAP measures for historical periods.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income
attributable to BlackLine, and non-GAAP net income attributable to
BlackLine per share guidance to the most directly comparable U.S.
GAAP measures are not available on a forward-looking basis without
unreasonable efforts due to the unpredictability and complexity of
the charges excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures. The
Company expects the variability of the above items could have a
significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on its future
GAAP operating margin, net income attributable to BlackLine, and
net income attributable to BlackLine per share.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
To supplement its consolidated financial
statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, BlackLine
has provided in this release and the quarterly conference call held
on August 6, 2024, certain financial measures that have not
been prepared in accordance with GAAP defined as “non-GAAP
financial measures,” which include (i) non-GAAP gross profit and
non-GAAP gross margin, (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses, (iii)
non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating margin,
(iv) non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to BlackLine, Inc. (v)
diluted non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to BlackLine, Inc.
per share, and (v) free cash flow.
BlackLine’s management uses these non-GAAP
financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results
and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to the
corresponding GAAP measures, in evaluating BlackLine’s ongoing
operational performance and trends and in comparing its financial
measures with other companies in the same industry, many of which
present similar non-GAAP financial measures to help investors
understand the operational performance of their businesses.
However, it is important to note that the particular items
BlackLine excludes from, or includes in, its non-GAAP financial
measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in,
similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the
same industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered
in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to
review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of
the non-GAAP financial measures to such GAAP measures has been
provided in the tables included as part of this press release.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross
Margin. Non-GAAP gross profit is defined as GAAP revenues less
GAAP cost of revenue adjusted for amortization of acquired
developed technology, stock-based compensation, and
transaction-related costs (including, but not limited to,
accounting, legal, and advisory fees related to the transaction, as
well as transaction-related retention bonuses). Non-GAAP gross
margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit divided by GAAP
revenues. BlackLine believes that presenting non-GAAP gross profit
and non-GAAP gross margin is useful to investors as it eliminates
the impact of certain non-cash expenses and allows a direct
comparison between periods.
Non-GAAP Operating Expenses. Non-GAAP operating
expenses include (a) non-GAAP sales and marketing expense, (b)
non-GAAP research and development expense and (c) non-GAAP general
and administrative expense. Non-GAAP sales and marketing expense is
defined as GAAP sales and marketing expense adjusted for
amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and
transaction-related costs. Non-GAAP research and development
expense is defined as GAAP research and development expense
adjusted for stock-based compensation and transaction-related
costs. Non-GAAP general and administrative expense is defined as
GAAP general and administrative expense adjusted for amortization
of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, change in fair
value of contingent consideration, transaction-related costs, and
legal settlement gains or costs. BlackLine believes that presenting
each of the non-GAAP operating expenses is useful to investors as
it eliminates the impact of certain cash and non-cash expenses and
allows a direct comparison of operating expenses between
periods.
Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations and
Non-GAAP Operating Margin. Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations
is defined as GAAP income (loss) from operations adjusted for
amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation, change
in fair value of contingent consideration, transaction-related
costs, legal settlement gains or costs and restructuring costs.
Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as non-GAAP income (loss) from
operations divided by GAAP revenues. The Company believes that
presenting non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP
operating margin is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact
of items that have been impacted by the Company’s acquisitions and
other related costs in order to allow a direct comparison of income
(loss) from operations between all periods presented.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Attributable to
BlackLine and Diluted Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Attributable to
BlackLine, Inc. Per Share. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable
to BlackLine is defined as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to
BlackLine adjusted for the impact of the provision for (benefit
from) income taxes related to acquisitions, amortization of
intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of debt
issuance costs from our convertible notes, change in fair value of
contingent consideration, transaction-related costs, legal
settlement gains or costs, restructuring costs, adjustment to the
redeemable non-controlling interest to the redemption amount, and
gain on extinguishment of convertible senior notes. Diluted
non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to BlackLine, Inc. per
share includes the adjustment for shares resulting from the
elimination of stock-based compensation. The Company believes that
presenting non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to BlackLine is
useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of items that have
been impacted by the Company’s acquisitions and other related costs
to allow a direct comparison of net income (loss) between all
periods presented.
Free Cash Flow. Free cash flow is defined as
cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities less cash
flows used to purchase property and equipment, financed and
otherwise, capitalized software development, and intangible assets.
BlackLine believes that presenting free cash flow is useful to
investors as it provides a measure of the Company’s liquidity used
by management to evaluate the amount of cash generated by the
Company’s business including the impact of purchases of property
and equipment and cost of capitalized software development.
Use of Operating Metrics
BlackLine has provided in this release and the
quarterly conference call held on August 6, 2024 certain
operating metrics, including (i) number of customers, (ii) number
of users, and (iii) dollar-based net revenue retention rate, which
BlackLine uses to evaluate its business, measure its performance,
identify trends affecting its business, formulate financial
projections and make strategic decisions. These operating metrics
exclude the impact of certain Runbook licensed customers and users
who are on perpetual license agreements and did not have an active
subscription agreement with BlackLine as of June 30, 2024.
Dollar-based Net Revenue Retention Rate.
Dollar-based net revenue retention rate is calculated as the
implied monthly subscription and support revenue at the end of a
period for the base set of customers from which the Company
generated subscription revenue in the year prior to the
calculation, divided by the implied monthly subscription and
support revenue one year prior to the date of calculation for that
same customer base. This calculation does not reflect implied
monthly subscription and support revenue for new customers added
during the one-year period but does include the effect of customers
who terminated during the period. Implied monthly subscription and
support revenue is defined as the total amount of minimum
subscription and support revenue contractually committed to, under
each of BlackLine’s customer agreements over the entire term of the
agreement, divided by the number of months in the term of the
agreement. BlackLine believes that dollar-based net revenue
retention rate is an important metric to measure the long-term
value of customer agreements and the Company’s ability to retain
and grow its relationships with existing customers over time.
Number of Customers. A customer is defined as a
company that contributes to our subscription and support revenue as
of the measurement date. In situations where an organization has
multiple subsidiaries or divisions, each entity that is invoiced as
a separate entity is treated as a separate customer. In an instance
where an existing customer requests its invoice be divided for the
sole purpose of restructuring its internal billing arrangement
without any incremental increase in revenue, such customer
continues to be treated as a single customer. BlackLine believes
that its ability to expand its customer base is an indicator of the
Company’s market penetration and the growth of its business.
Number of Users. Historically, BlackLine’s
products were priced based on the number of users of its platform.
Over time, the Company has begun to sell an increasing number of
non-user based products with fixed or transaction-based pricing.
For this reason, we believe the growth in the number of total users
is less correlated to the growth of the business overall.
