"Revenue and profitability exceeded our expectations in the
first quarter, driven by solid performance across all three market
offerings," said Daryl Raiford, CFO
of Bandwidth. "Delivering on our promise of profitable growth we
are raising our full-year guidance with revenue expected to grow
approximately 19 percent and Adjusted EBITDA to increase 54
percent. We also enhanced our capital structure by upsizing
our revolving credit facility to $100
million and repurchasing approximately $140 million of our 2026 convertible notes at a
discount, strengthening our balance sheet and improving operating
flexibility."
First Quarter Customer and Operational
Highlights
- A leader in healthcare engagement and payment solutions
selected Bandwidth as their sole provider for voice traffic,
valuing our exceptional customer support, network reliability, and
automated provisioning and porting processes.
- A premier digital marketing provider in the automotive industry
switched to Bandwidth's toll-free messaging solution. Our
specialized support and expertise in helping the company navigate
the changing messaging ecosystem improved the deliverability of
their communications.
- One of the largest U.S. domestic airlines chose Bandwidth to
power their integrated cloud contact center and transform their
customer experience platform, valuing our integrations, capacity to
handle high volumes and resiliency provided by our network and Call
Assure product.
- Bandwidth won two Stevie Awards: a gold award for highest
honors in Customer Service Innovation and a silver award for
Customer Service Team of the Year.
Financial Outlook
Bandwidth's outlook is based on current indications for its
business, which are subject to change. Bandwidth is providing
guidance for its second quarter and full year 2024 as follows (in
millions):
|
2Q 2024
Guidance

- $175
|
|

|
Adjusted

|
$15 - $17
|
|

|
Bandwidth has not reconciled its second quarter and full year
2024 guidance related to Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income or
loss, because stock-based compensation cannot be reasonably
calculated or predicted at this time. Accordingly, a reconciliation
is not available without unreasonable effort.
Executive Leadership Change
Bandwidth further announced today that Anthony Bartolo will be leaving his position as
Chief Operating Officer later this year.
"Anthony joined Bandwidth to scale our global growth and his
accomplishments are clearly evident in our strong operating
results," said Mr. Morken. "I am grateful for Anthony's initiative,
global acumen, industry expertise and commitment to success. I know
all Bandmates worldwide join me in thanking Anthony for his
excellent leadership and wishing him all the best in the
future."
"Bandwidth is the standout communications platform trusted by
Global 2000 companies for their mission-critical communications,"
said Mr. Bartolo. "I am proud to count myself an integral part of
the Bandwidth team that drove foundational growth, customer-focused
innovation and further global expansion. Bandwidth is an
award-winning beacon in the CPaaS space, recognized for
innovation, services, and employee and customer satisfaction. I'm
thankful for the opportunity to have led during this exciting
period and look forward to watching Bandwidth move from strength to
strength from a new vantage point."
Expansion of Credit Facility
Bandwidth announced that it has entered into an amendment to its
credit agreement with Bank of America and Wells Fargo, increasing
the revolving credit facility from $50
million to $100 million and
extending the maturity date to May 1,
2029.
Repurchase of Convertible Notes
Bandwidth announced that it has entered into privately
negotiated repurchase agreements with a limited number of holders
of its 0.250% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Notes") to
repurchase (the "Repurchases") approximately $140 million aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at a discount to par value. Following the repurchase,
approximately $35 million principal
amount of the Notes will remain outstanding, from an initial issued
principal balance of $400
million.
Bandwidth has previously entered into capped call transactions
with certain financial institutions in connection with the Notes.
All of these transactions are expected to remain in effect
notwithstanding the Repurchases.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes forward-looking statements. All
statements contained in this press release other than statements of
historical facts, including, without limitation, future financial
and business performance for the quarter ending June 30, 2024 and year ending December 31, 2024, the success of our product
offerings and our platform, and the value proposition of our
products, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate,"
"assume," "believe," "continue," "estimate," "expect," "intend,"
"guide," "may," "will" and similar expressions and their negatives
are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based
these forward-looking statements largely 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 risks and
uncertainties, including, without limitation, risks related to our
rapid growth and ability to sustain our revenue growth rate,
competition in the markets in which we operate, market growth, our
ability to innovate and manage our growth, our ability to expand
effectively into new markets, macroeconomic conditions both in the
U.S. and globally, legal, reputational and financial risks which
may result from ever-evolving cybersecurity threats, our ability to
operate in compliance with applicable laws, as well as other risks
and uncertainties set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of our
latest Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") and any subsequent reports that we file with the SEC.
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, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of
activity, performance, achievements or events and circumstances
reflected in the forward-looking statements will occur. We are
under no obligation to update any of these forward-looking
statements after the date of this press release to conform these
statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as
required by law. You should, therefore, not rely on these
forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date
subsequent to the date of this press release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements,
which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the
United States, or GAAP, we provide investors with certain
Non-GAAP financial measures and other business metrics, which we
believe are helpful to our investors. We use these Non-GAAP
financial measures and other business metrics for financial and
operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate
period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these Non-GAAP
financial measures and other business metrics provide useful
information about our operating results, enhance the overall
understanding of past financial performance and future prospects
and allow for greater transparency with respect to metrics used by
our management in its financial and operational
decision-making.
The presentation of Non-GAAP financial information and other
business metrics is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared
in accordance with GAAP. While our Non-GAAP financial measures and
other business metrics are an important tool for financial and
operational decision-making and for evaluating our own operating
results over different periods of time, we urge investors to review
the reconciliation of these financial measures to the comparable
GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any
single financial measure to evaluate our business.
We define Non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit after adding
back depreciation, amortization of acquired intangible assets
related to acquisitions and stock-based compensation. We add back
depreciation, amortization of acquired intangible assets related to
acquisitions and stock-based compensation because they are non-cash
items. We eliminate the impact of these non-cash items, because we
do not consider them indicative of our core operating performance.
Their exclusion facilitates comparisons of our operating
performance on a period-to-period basis. Therefore, we believe that
showing gross margin, as adjusted to remove the impact of these
non-cash expenses, is helpful to investors in assessing our gross
profit and gross margin performance in a way that is similar to how
management assesses our performance. We calculate Non-GAAP gross
margin by dividing Non-GAAP gross profit by cloud communications
revenue, which is revenue less pass-through messaging
surcharges.
We define Non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income or loss
adjusted for certain items affecting period to period
comparability. Non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes stock-based
compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets related to
acquisitions, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs for
convertible debt, acquisition related expenses, impairment charges
of intangibles assets, net cost associated with early lease
terminations and leases without economic benefit, (gain) loss on
sale of business, net (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, gain
on business interruption insurance recoveries, non-recurring items
not indicative of ongoing operations and other, and estimated tax
impact of above adjustments, net of valuation allowances.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income or losses from
continuing operations, adjusted to reflect the addition or
elimination of certain statement of operations items including, but
not limited to: income tax (benefit) provision, interest (income)
expense, net, depreciation and amortization expense, acquisition
related expenses, stock-based compensation expense, impairment of
intangible assets, (gain) loss on sale of business, net cost
associated with early lease terminations and leases without
economic benefit, net (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, gain
on business interruption insurance recoveries, and non-recurring
items not indicative of ongoing operations and other. We have
presented Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our
management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our
core operating performance and trends, generate future operating
plans, and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of
capital. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of certain
items in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can produce a useful measure
for period-to-period comparisons of our business.
We define free cash flow as net cash provided by or used in
operating activities less net cash used in the acquisition of
property, plant and equipment and capitalized development costs for
software for internal use. We believe free cash flow is a useful
indicator of liquidity and provides information to management and
investors about the amount of cash generated from our core
operations that can be used for investing in our business. Free
cash flow has certain limitations in that it does not represent the
total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period, it
does not take into consideration investment in long-term
securities, nor does it represent the residual cash flows available
for discretionary expenditures. Therefore, it is important to
evaluate free cash flow along with our condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows.
We believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures provide useful
information about our operating results, enhance the overall
understanding of past financial performance and future prospects
and allow for greater transparency with respect to metrics used by
our management in its financial and operational decision-making.
While a reconciliation of Non-GAAP guidance measures to
corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking
basis as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential
variability of, many of these costs and expenses that we may incur
in the future, we have provided a reconciliation of Non-GAAP
financial measures and other business metrics to the nearest
comparable GAAP measures in the accompanying financial statement
tables included in this press release.

Non-recurring items not indicative of ongoing operations and other
include $0.1 million of losses on disposals of property, plant and
equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2024, and
$0.4 million of expense resulting from the early termination of our
undrawn SVB credit facility and $0.2 million of losses on disposals
of property, plant and equipment during the three months ended
March 31, 2023.

The estimated tax-effect of adjustments is determined by
recalculating the tax provision on a Non-GAAP basis. The Non-GAAP
effective income tax rate was 13.0% and (143.4)% for the three
months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the three
months ended March 31, 2024, the Non-GAAP effective income tax
rate differed from the federal statutory tax rate of 21% in the
U.S. primarily due to the research and development tax credits
generated in 2024. We analyze the Non-GAAP valuation allowance
position on a quarterly basis. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we
removed the valuation allowance against all U.S. deferred tax
assets for Non-GAAP purposes as a result of cumulative Non-GAAP
U.S. income over the past three years and a significant depletion
of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards on a
Non-GAAP basis. As of March 31, 2024, we have no valuation
allowance against our remaining deferred tax assets for Non-GAAP
purposes.
