UiPath, Inc. (NYSE: PATH), a leading enterprise automation
software company, today announced financial results for its first
quarter fiscal 2022 ended April 30, 2021.
“We had an exceptionally strong start to fiscal year 2022 with
first quarter ARR growing 64 percent year-over-year to $653
million, a testament to our leadership position in enterprise
software automation,” commented Daniel Dines, UiPath Co-Founder and
Chief Executive Officer. “We believe automation is the next layer
in the software stack. Our vision is to enable the fully automated
enterprise through our unique combination of UI Automation, API
Management, and AI to best emulate human workers and help
organizations assign all automatable work to robots
enterprise-wide. Our end-to-end automation platform, flexible
deployment model, and growing ecosystem of partners position us
well to capitalize on the more than $60 billion market opportunity
ahead of us.”
Ashim Gupta, UiPath Chief Financial Officer, added, “I am
pleased with our first quarter fiscal 2022 results as we continue
to execute well against our land and expand go-to-market strategy.
We have experienced rapid growth and now have over 8,500 customers
worldwide, including 1,105 customers with ARR of $100,000 or
greater and 104 customers with ARR of $1 million or greater. Given
our existing momentum, we plan to continue to invest in growth
while maintaining operational rigor as we run our business.”

Recent Business Highlights
- UiPath completed its initial public offering
(IPO): The offering consisted of 27,474,393 shares of
its Class A common stock at a price to the public of $56.00 per
share, which consisted of 13,000,000 shares issued and sold by
UiPath and 14,474,393 shares sold by the selling stockholders. Net
proceeds from the IPO totaled $692.4 million, and UiPath did not
receive any proceeds from the shares sold by the selling
stockholders. UiPath is listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol
“PATH”.
- Released UiPath Platform 21.4: As previously announced,
highlights of this platform release include three new products and
over 100 major customer driven new features and deeper integrations
across every pillar of our end-to-end platform. Innovations include
the all-new Automation Ops, designed to help customers manage and
govern high scale deployments of the UiPath Studio family of
products and Attended Robots enterprise-wide. New AI-powered
capabilities were also introduced to speed the discovery and
prioritization of processes to automate, led by the general
availability of Task Mining. Other upgrades included a seamless
user experience across the platform and the continued rapid
expansion of Automation Cloud™. We have over 5,000 customers and
partners registered for our 21.4 Release Show and 15,000 developers
are expected to join UiPath DevCon next week.
- Acquired Cloud Elements to bring together Ui Automation and
Computer Vision with API Management: With the March 2021
acquisition of Cloud Elements, a pioneering API integration
platform, UiPath will be able to offer both enterprise-grade user
interface (UI) and application programming interface (API) based
automation capabilities in a single platform. This means that
UiPath customers now have the flexibility to automate processes
using an optimal mix of UI and API-based automation.
- Expanded technology partnership: UiPath and Tableau
launched a Tableau Activity which allows customers to easily
utilize data produced or retrieved by robotic automations in their
Tableau reports and the UiPath extension for Tableau which triggers
a robot directly from a Tableau report or dashboard.
- Recognized as a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Robotic
Process Automation, Q1 2021: Among the 14 vendors evaluated,
UiPath earned the highest ranking in each of three categories:
Current Offering, Strategy, and Market Presence. The Company also
received the highest possible scores in the criteria of product
vision; performance; supporting products and services; partner
ecosystem; delivery model; enterprise RPA customers; enterprise
customers; and product revenue.
- Delivered COVID-19 Aid: Supported Oxygen for India with
a contribution of over $1 million in corporate and employee
donations to send and distribute oxygen supplies throughout the
country.
- Appointed new Chief People Officer and first Chief Culture
Officer: UiPath appointed Bettina Koblick, most recently Chief
People Officer (CPO) at ServiceMax, as its Chief People Officer,
and Andreea Baciu, interim UiPath CPO, as UiPath’s first Chief
Culture Officer. Both appointees bring significant experience from
software companies of varied scale and stage.
- Expanded mission to democratize automation and drive
diversity in the technology industry: The UiPath Academic
Alliance partnered with seven Historically Black Colleges and
Universities (HBCUs) to train students on RPA. These partnerships
with HBCUs are intended to bring workforce development
opportunities, along with the skills, training, and knowledge to
not only thrive in digitally-led work environments, but to also
shape them. To date, UiPath Academic Alliance has partnered with
more than 750 academic institutions globally.
Financial Outlook
For the fiscal second quarter 2022, UiPath expects:
- ARR in the range of $702 million and $704 million
- Revenue in the range of $180 million and $185 million
- Non-GAAP operating loss in the range of $(35) million and $(25)
million
For the fiscal full year 2022, UiPath expects:
- ARR in the range of $850 million and $855 million
Reconciliation of non-GAAP operating loss guidance to the most
directly comparable GAAP measure is not available without
unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high
variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the
charges excluded from this non-GAAP measure; in particular, the
measures and effects of stock-based compensation expense specific
to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by
unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price. We expect the
variability of the above charges to have a significant, and
potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP financial
results.
Partial Early Lock-Up Release
UiPath announced today that a partial early lock-up release will
occur immediately prior to the opening of trading on June 10, 2021
with respect to its shares of Class A common stock, par value
$0.00001 per share, pursuant to the terms of certain lock-up
agreements entered into by UiPath’s directors and executive
officers, the selling stockholders, and certain other stockholders
with the underwriters of UiPath’s initial public offering.
Pursuant to the terms of the lock-up agreements, the lock-up
restrictions automatically end with respect to 30% of certain
securities owned as of March 31, 2021 by the selling stockholders
and UiPath’s directors, certain executive officers, employees,
former employees, and certain other stockholders. The lock-up
restrictions will continue to apply with respect to all remaining
securities subject to the lock-up agreements.

and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on
April 21, 2021, and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that will

Key Performance Metric and Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
Annualized Renewal Run-rate (ARR) is a key performance metric we
use in managing our business because it illustrates our ability to
acquire new subscription customers and to maintain and expand our
relationships with existing subscription customers. We define ARR
as annualized invoiced amounts per solution SKU from subscription
licenses and maintenance obligations assuming no increases or
reductions in the subscriptions. ARR does not include the costs we
may incur to obtain such subscription licenses or provide such
maintenance and does not reflect any actual or anticipated
reductions in invoiced value due to contract non-renewals or
service cancellations other than for specific bad debt or disputed
amounts. Additionally, though we use ARR as a forward-looking
metric in the management of our business, it does not include
invoiced amounts reported as perpetual licenses or professional
services revenue in our consolidated statement of operations, and
is not a forecast of future revenue, which can be impacted by
contract start and end dates, duration, and renewal rates.
Investors should not place undue reliance on ARR as an indicator of
future or expected results. Our definition of ARR may differ from
the definition used by other companies and therefore comparability
may be limited.
This earnings press release includes the following financial
measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC,
including non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP gross profit and
margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating loss and
margin, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share
and non-GAAP free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures
exclude:
· stock-based compensation expense;
· amortization of acquired intangibles;
· employer payroll tax expense related to
employee equity transactions;
· in the case of non-GAAP net loss, the
associated tax adjustments with the related add-backs; and
· in the case of free cash flow, purchases of
property and equipment and capitalization of software development
costs.
UiPath uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in
analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to
investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating UiPath’s
ongoing operational performance. UiPath 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 its financial results with other companies in
UiPath’s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial
measures to investors. On-GAAP financial measures are financial
measures that are derived from the consolidated financial
statements, but that are not presented in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). We
believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with
useful supplementary information in evaluating our performance.
Investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in
addition to, and not as a substitute for, our financial performance
measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, our non-GAAP
information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided
by other companies. The information below provides a reconciliation
of non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release to the
most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. We encourage
investors to consider our GAAP results alongside our supplemental
non-GAAP measures, and to review the reconciliation between GAAP
results and non-GAAP measures that is included at the end of this
earnings press release. This earnings press release and any future
releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can also be found
on the Investor Relations page of UiPath’s website at
