Demandware Announces First Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Subscription Revenue Grows 31% on a Reported Basis and 33% on a Constant Currency Basis,
Company Increases Full-Year Guidance for Total Revenue, Operating Income and Net Income

Burlington, Mass. – April 27, 2016 – Demandware®, Inc. (NYSE: DWRE), the industry-leading provider of enterprise cloud commerce solutions, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2016.

First Quarter Highlights

Subscription revenue for the first quarter was $56.8 million, a 31% year over year increase from $43.2 million in the first quarter of 2015

Live customers reached 349 at March 31, 2016, an increase of 25% from 279 last year

Live sites reached 1,590 at March 31, 2016, an increase of 28% from 1,241 last year

“We made excellent progress against our 2016 goals, delivering on key customer, technology, and financial objectives,” stated Tom Ebling, CEO, Demandware. “We continue to expand up market, signing larger customers while driving above-market growth in our customer base. From a technology perspective, we rolled out meaningful enhancements to our platform, including enabling predictive recommendations for all digital customers, and remain on track to release Demandware Store to US customers in the fourth quarter. In addition, we were pleased to be named as a leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Commerce, the only cloud-based provider to be placed in this category, and a validation of our dedication and commitment to innovation and to our customers.”

Demandware signed significant new customers during the quarter, including Belk, BoConcept, Duluth Trading, Figleaves, Fragrance Direct, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, Sonos, Timex, and Wolford.

Leading retailers such as Acushnet, Avenue 32, Charles Tyrwhitt, Christopher & Banks, Ivyrevel, Pret A Manger, Stonewall Kitchen, Trimtex Sport, TTS Group, and W. Atlee Burpee launched initial sites on the Demandware Commerce Cloud.

Existing customers like BabyOne, Jarden Corp, L’Oreal, Samsonite, TSI Holdings, Warehouse Fashions, Williamson-Dickie, Wolverine Worldwide, and World Wrestling Entertainment expanded their operations on the platform launching additional commerce sites.

“Total revenue exceeded our guidance range driven by strength in our services business,” said Tim Adams, Chief Financial Officer. “Furthermore, we delivered $2 million of non-GAAP net income to shareholders versus a non-GAAP loss a year ago. These results show a strong start to the year, and we remain confident in the future given our growth investments, which we believe will both strengthen our leadership position and enable us to deliver even more value to our shareholders.”

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2016 was $67.1 million, a 33% increase from $50.3 million in the first quarter of 2015. Our GAAP net loss for the first quarter of 2016 was $11.7 million as compared to a GAAP net loss of $5.2 million for the first quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2016 was $2.2 million as compared to non-GAAP net loss of $0.1 million for the first quarter of 2015.⁽¹⁾

At March 31, 2016, we had $195.8 million in cash, cash equivalents and short term investments on the balance sheet, as compared to $197.0 million at December 31, 2015.

⁽¹⁾ Indicates a non-GAAP measure. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below and the accompanying reconciliations for more detailed information about these non-GAAP measures.

Outlook

Tim Adams remarked, “We are raising our 2016 revenue guidance by $3 million to reflect the first quarter outperformance in services. With this additional services revenue, we are raising our guidance for operating income and net income by approximately $2 million. Otherwise, our guidance framework is consistent with the outlook we provided at the start of the year. We remain enthusiastic about the value we can bring to our shareholders and customers alike.”

For 2016, the company expects:

Forward-looking Statements

This release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding Demandware's future financial performance, market growth, the demand for Demandware's solutions, and general business conditions. Any forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based upon Demandware's historical performance and its current plans, estimates and expectations and are not a representation that such plans, estimates, or expectations will be achieved. These forward-looking statements represent Demandware's expectations as of the date of this press release. Subsequent events may cause these expectations to change, and Demandware disclaims any obligation to update the forward-looking statements in the future. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to attract new customers; the extent to which customers renew their contracts for our solution; the seasonality of our business; our ability to manage our growth; the variance of our business from quarter to quarter; the continued growth of the market for digital commerce software and retail; the timing and success of solutions offered by our competitors; unpredictable macro-economic conditions; the loss of any of our key employees; the length of the sales and implementation cycles for our solutions; increased demands on our infrastructure and costs associated with operating as a public company; failure to protect our intellectual property; changes in current tax or accounting rules; and other risks and uncertainties. Further information on potential factors that could affect actual results is included in Demandware’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Demandware has provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP subscription gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share. This press release also presents subscription revenue and percent change in subscription revenue on a GAAP and a “constant currency” basis as well as other operating metrics on a constant currency basis so that revenue and other operating metrics can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, allowing for a period-to-period comparison of underlying business performance. Demandware 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 Demandware’s ongoing operational performance. Demandware 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 measures with other companies in Demandware's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors to help investors better understand the ongoing operating performance of the business. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP subscription gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share exclude amortization expenses related to stock-based compensation, contingent compensation expense related to acquisitions, amortization of intangible assets and the non-cash tax benefit related to our acquisitions. Our non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income guidance for 2016 also exclude amortization expenses related to stock-based compensation, contingent compensation expense related to acquisitions and amortization of intangible assets. Stock-based compensation is often difficult to predict and often excluded by other companies to help investors understand the operational performance of their business. Subscription revenue as well as other operating metrics on a constant currency basis exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, which is calculated by applying the prior period’s foreign currency exchange rates to the current period foreign currency revenue, because foreign currency exchange rates are subject to volatility and can obscure underlying performance. Non-GAAP financial measures that the Company uses may differ from measures that other companies may use. 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 measure. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables included as part of this press release.
