Second quarter contract revenue year-over-year
growth of 19.7% to $26.8 million
Second quarter total revenue year-over-year
growth of 14.1% to $33.0 million
LiveVox Holdings, Inc. (“LiveVox” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:
LVOX), a leading global enterprise cloud communications company,
today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June
30, 2022.
“Our Adjusted EBITDA performance came in above the high end of
guidance and remains significantly ahead of schedule. We will be
Adjusted EBITDA positive in Q4 of 2022, pivoting LiveVox to
positive free cashflow in calendar 2023,” said Louis Summe, CEO.
“While we are taking prudent cost control measures where needed,
our switch to being 100% in the public cloud has fueled this
impressive improvement. Despite some weaker than anticipated excess
usage revenue in the quarter, we continue to believe that LiveVox
is well positioned to benefit from tailwinds in the back half of
the year.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate
operating performance. We believe non-GAAP financial measures
provide useful information to investors and others to understand
and evaluate our operating results in the same manner as our
management and board of directors and allows for better comparison
of financial results among our competitors.
Adjusted EBITDA
We monitor Adjusted EBITDA, a non-generally accepted accounting
principle (“Non-GAAP”) financial measure, to analyze our financial
results and believe that it is useful to investors, as a supplement
to U.S. GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational
performance and enhancing an overall understanding of our past
financial performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA helps
illustrate underlying trends in our business that could otherwise
be masked by the effect of the income or expenses that we exclude
from Adjusted EBITDA. Furthermore, we use this measure to establish
budgets and operational goals for managing our business and
evaluating our performance. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA
provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our
recurring core business operating results over multiple periods
with other companies in our industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be
considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial
information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and our
calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from that of other
companies in our industry. We compensate for the inherent
limitations associated with using Adjusted EBITDA through
disclosure of these limitations, presentation of our consolidated
financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and
reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable
U.S. GAAP measure, net loss. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net
loss before (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) long-term
equity incentive bonus, (iii) stock-based compensation expense,
(iv) interest expense, net, (v) change in the fair value of warrant
liability, (vi) other expense, net, (vii) provision for (benefit
from) income taxes, and (viii) other items that do not directly
affect what we consider to be our core operating performance.
Non-GAAP Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Gross Margin
Percentage
U.S. GAAP defines gross profit as revenue less cost of revenue.
Cost of revenue includes all expenses associated with our various
product offerings. We define Non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit
after adding back the following items: (i) depreciation and
amortization; (ii) long-term equity incentive bonus and stock-based
compensation expenses; and (iii) other non-recurring expenses. We
add back depreciation and amortization, long-term equity incentive
bonus and stock-based compensation expenses and other non-recurring
expenses because they are one-time or non-cash items. We eliminate
the impact of these one-time or 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 showing Non-GAAP
gross margin to remove the impact of these one-time or 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
percentage by dividing Non-GAAP gross profit by revenue, expressed
as a percentage of revenue.
Management uses Non-GAAP gross profit and Non-GAAP gross margin
percentage to evaluate operating performance and to determine
resource allocation among our various product offerings. We believe
Non-GAAP gross profit and Non-GAAP gross margin percentage provide
useful information to investors and others to understand and
evaluate our operating results in the same manner as our management
and board of directors and allows for better comparison of
financial results among our competitors. Non-GAAP gross profit and
Non-GAAP gross margin percentage may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures of other companies because other companies may not
calculate Non-GAAP gross profit and Non-GAAP gross margin
percentage or similarly titled measures in the same manner as we
do.
Please see tables below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures for the
periods presented.
