SYNCHRONOSS TECHNOLOGIES REPORTS 40% INCREASE YEAR OVER YEAR IN THIRD QUARTER ADJUSTED EBITDA; RAISES ADJUSTED EBITDA GUIDANCE FOR FULL YEAR 2020

BRIDGEWATER, NJ - November 9, 2020 - Synchronoss Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCR), a global leader and innovator in cloud, messaging, digital and IoT platforms and products, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Third quarter highlights:

GAAP revenue was $68.6 million, compared to GAAP revenue of $52.2 million in the prior year’s third quarter (after giving effect to a $26 million unfavorable cumulative adjustment to prior year third quarter revenue).
Recurring revenue represented 80% of total GAAP revenue, up from 69% in the year ago quarter.
GAAP net loss for the quarter was $15.4 million, or $0.36 cents per share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $69.4 million, or $1.70 per share, in the prior year’s third quarter.
Non-GAAP net income was $1.7 million, or $0.04 cent per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $25.4 million, or $0.62 cents per share, in the prior year’s third quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 40% year over year to $8.1 million, compared to $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 12% compared to 11% in the prior year's third quarter.
Cash and liquidity increased to $46.4 million at quarter end, up from $42.8 million at the end of the second quarter.

Commenting on the results, Jeff Miller, President and CEO of Synchronoss, said:

“We are taking a pragmatic approach to the business by focusing our resources on lines of business that are generating the highest return for shareholders and have the most potential for future growth and profitability. Despite the recent leadership change, we haven’t lost a step as an organization and we continue to execute and build momentum, including renewing our largest cloud client, Verizon, to a five-year contract extension. Our teams have deep relationships with our customers, and we look forward to building on that strength by expanding those relationships and adding new ones. Our improved adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter highlights our sharpened focus on increasing our profitability and cash flow going forward.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Synchronoss has provided in this release selected financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. This information includes historical non-GAAP revenues, gross profit, operating income (loss), net income (loss), effective tax rate, and earnings (loss) per share. Synchronoss 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 Synchronoss’ ongoing operational performance. Synchronoss 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 Synchronoss’ industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. As noted, the non-GAAP financial results discussed above add back fair value stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs which includes integration costs, restructuring and cease-use lease expense, deferred compensation expense related to earn outs and amortization of intangibles associated with acquisitions.

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 measures as detailed above. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.
