Tenable Holdings, Inc. ("Tenable") (Nasdaq: TENB), the Exposure
Management company, today announced financial results for the
quarter ended September 30, 2023.
"We are pleased with our execution in the quarter, which
included better-than-expected earnings and unlevered free cash
flow," said Amit Yoran, Chairman and CEO of Tenable. "We also saw
significant outperformance in the public sector, which had minimal
benefit to CCB in the quarter. Specifically, we experienced
increasing strength in the U.S. federal market evidenced by several
strategic seven-figure deals that are reflected in our current
remaining performance obligations (RPO) growth of 15%.
"We continue to see momentum with Tenable One, and the
integration of Ermetic's cloud-native application protection
platform will further augment our existing products, enhancing
our ability to identify cyber risks and secure cloud and hybrid
environments for our customers."

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained
in this press release other than statements of historical fact,
including statements regarding our future results of operations and
financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives for
future operations, are forward-looking statements and represent our
views as of the date of this press release. The words “anticipate,”
"believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,”
“will” and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking
statements on our current expectations and projections about future
events and financial trends that we believe may affect our
financial condition, results of operations, business strategy,
short-term and long-term business operations and objectives and
financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a
number of assumptions and risks and uncertainties, many of which
involve factors or circumstances that are beyond our control that
could affect our financial results. These risks and uncertainties
are detailed in the sections titled "Risk Factors" and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2022 and in our Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 as well as other filings
that we make from time to time with the SEC, which are available on
the SEC's website at sec.gov. Moreover, we operate in a very
competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from
time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all
risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business
or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these
risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends
discussed in this press release may not occur and actual results
could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or
implied in any forward-looking statements. Except as required by
law, we are under no obligation to update these forward-looking
statements subsequent to the date of this press release, or to
update the reasons if actual results differ materially from those
anticipated in the forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are
prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use
certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to
understand and evaluate our core operating performance.
These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different
than similarly titled measures used by other companies, are
presented to enhance the overall understanding of our financial
performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or
superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in
accordance with GAAP.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures
provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance
the overall understanding of our past performance and future
prospects and allow for greater transparency with respect to
important metrics used by management for financial and operational
decision-making. We include these non-GAAP financial measures to
present our financial performance using a management view and
because we believe that these measures provide an additional
comparison of our core financial performance over multiple periods
with other companies in our industry.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the
financial tables accompanying this press release.
Calculated Current Billings: We define calculated current
billings, a non-GAAP financial measure, as total revenue recognized
in a period plus the change in current deferred revenue in the
corresponding period. We believe that calculated current billings
is a key metric to measure our periodic performance. Given that
most of our customers pay in advance (including multi-year
contracts), but we generally recognize the related revenue ratably
over time, we use calculated current billings to measure and
monitor our ability to provide our business with the working
capital generated by upfront payments from our customers. We
believe that calculated current billings, which excludes deferred
revenue for periods beyond twelve months in a customer’s
contractual term, more closely correlates with annual contract
value and that the variability in total billings, depending on the
timing of large multi-year contracts and the preference for annual
billing versus multi-year upfront billing, may distort growth in
one period over another.
Free Cash Flow and Unlevered Free Cash Flow: We define free cash
flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by
operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and
capitalized software development costs. We believe free cash
flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash (if any) that is
available, after purchases of property and equipment and
capitalized software development costs, for investment in our
business and to make acquisitions. We believe that free cash flow
is useful as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to
generate or use cash. We define unlevered free cash flow as free
cash flow plus cash paid for interest and other financing costs. We
believe unlevered free cash flow is useful as a liquidity measure
as it measures the cash that is available to invest in our business
and meet our current debt obligations and future financing needs.
However, given our debt obligations, non-cancelable commitments and
other contractual obligations, unlevered free cash flow does not
represent residual cash flow available for discretionary
expenses.
Non-GAAP Income from Operations and Non-GAAP Operating Margin:
We define these non-GAAP financial measures as their respective
GAAP measures, excluding the effect of stock-based compensation,
acquisition-related expenses, costs related to the intra-entity
asset transfers resulting from the internal restructuring of legal
entities and amortization of acquired intangible assets.
Acquisition-related expenses include transaction and integration
expenses, as well as costs related to the intercompany transfer of
acquired intellectual property.
Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share: We define
non-GAAP net income as GAAP net loss, excluding the effect of
stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and
amortization of acquired intangible assets, including the
applicable tax impacts. In addition, we exclude the tax impact and
related costs of intra-entity asset transfers resulting from the
internal restructuring of legal entities as well as deferred income
tax benefits recognized in connection with acquisitions. We use
non-GAAP net income to calculate non-GAAP earnings per share.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin: We define
non-GAAP gross profit as GAAP gross profit, excluding the effect of
stock-based compensation and amortization of acquired intangible
assets. Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit
as a percentage of revenue.
Non-GAAP Sales and Marketing Expense, Non-GAAP Research and
Development Expense and Non-GAAP General and Administrative
Expense: We define these non-GAAP measures as their respective GAAP
measures, excluding stock-based compensation, acquisition-related
expenses and costs related to intra-entity asset transfers
resulting from the internal restructuring of legal entities.
