First Quarter Cash Flow from Operations Increases $55 million Year-Over-Year
Charleston, S.C. (April 28, 2021) - Blackbaud (NASDAQ: BLKB), the world's leading cloud software company powering social good, today announced financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2021.
"Our
first quarter performance combined with an improving macro environment has us well positioned for a strong and successful year ahead," said Mike Gianoni, president and CEO, Blackbaud. "The progress being made to distribute COVID vaccines is encouraging for our market, our customers and our company. As we look to extend our leadership position in this market, we're accelerating investments in key areas like digital marketing, engineering, security and customer success, and our sights are set on the substantial opportunity ahead of us to drive meaningful acceleration in financial performance in the context of Rule of 40. Overall, we had a strong start to the year, and I'm increasingly optimistic about what's to come in 2021 and over the next several years."
First Quarter 2021 Results Compared to First Quarter 2020 Results:
•Total
GAAP revenue was $219.2 million, down 2.0%, with $206.8 million in GAAP recurring revenue, up 0.9%.
•GAAP income from operations was $6.6 million, with GAAP operating margin of 3.0%, a decrease of 80 basis points.
•Non-GAAP income from operations was $47.2 million, with non-GAAP operating margin of 21.5%, an increase of 630 basis points.
•GAAP net loss was $0.2 million, with GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.00, down $0.10 per share.
•Non-GAAP net income was $32.8 million, with non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.68, up $0.17 per share.
•Non-GAAP
adjusted EBITDA was $57.2 million, up $12.5 million, with non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin of 26.1%.
•GAAP net cash provided by operating activities was $30.1 million, an increase of $54.6 million.
•Non-GAAP free cash flow was $17.3 million, an increase of $55.6 million.
"Our first quarter results are encouraging as we continue to see strength in online payments and durability in our recurring revenue streams," said Tony Boor, executive vice president and CFO. "We had solid bookings performance to start the year while reducing customer acquisition costs, and we continued to make accelerated investments in critical areas of the business. As expected, one-time services and other revenue continues to decline which creates a drag on overall revenue growth but is positive over the long term.
With one quarter behind us, we have increasing visibility into our near-term performance, and as we exit the pandemic, we see significant growth opportunities ahead of us. Our latest modeling gives us heightened confidence we may have upside to our best estimate for 2021, and the trends we're seeing to start the year combined with favorable foreign exchange rates significantly reduces the likelihood of our downside revenue scenario."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Blackbaud has provided in this release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Blackbaud uses non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its operational performance. Accordingly, Blackbaud believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating its ongoing operational performance and trends and in comparing its financial results from period-to-period with other companies in Blackbaud's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation between companies.
The non-GAAP
financial measures discussed above exclude the impact of certain transactions that Blackbaud believes are not directly related to its operating performance in any particular period, but are for its long-term benefit over multiple periods. Blackbaud believes these non-GAAP financial measures reflect its ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in its business.
While Blackbaud believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information, 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 reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Non-GAAP free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures,
including costs required to be capitalized for software development, and capital expenditures for property and equipment.
In addition, Blackbaud uses non-GAAP organic revenue growth, non-GAAP organic revenue growth on a constant currency basis and non-GAAP organic recurring revenue growth, in analyzing its operating performance. Blackbaud believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, for evaluating the periodic growth of its business on a consistent basis. Each of these measures excludes incremental acquisition-related revenue attributable to companies acquired in the current fiscal year. For companies acquired in the immediately preceding fiscal year, each of these measures reflects presentation of full-year incremental non-GAAP revenue derived from such companies as if they were combined throughout the prior period, and it includes
the non-GAAP revenue attributable to those companies, as if there were no acquisition-related write-downs of acquired deferred revenue to fair value as required by GAAP. In addition, each of these measures excludes prior period revenue associated with divested businesses. The exclusion of the prior period revenue is to present the results of the divested businesses within the results of the combined company for the same period of time in both the prior and current periods. Blackbaud believes this presentation provides a more comparable representation of its current business’ organic revenue growth and revenue run-rate
Rule of 40 is defined as non-GAAP organic revenue growth plus non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income plus interest, net; income
tax provision; depreciation; amortization of intangible assets from business combinations; amortization of software development costs; acquisition-related deferred revenue write-down; stock-based compensation; acquisition-related integration costs; acquisition-related expenses; employee severance; and restructuring and other real estate activities.

(1)Non-GAAP acquisition-related revenue excludes incremental acquisition-related revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP that is attributable to companies acquired in the current fiscal year. For companies
acquired in the immediately preceding fiscal year, non-GAAP acquisition-related revenue reflects presentation of full-year incremental non-GAAP revenue derived from such companies, as if they were combined throughout the prior period, and it includes the non-GAAP revenue from the acquisition-related deferred revenue write-down attributable to those companies.
(2)Non-GAAP organic revenue for the prior year periods presented herein may not agree to non-GAAP organic revenue presented in the respective prior period quarterly financial information solely due to the manner in which non-GAAP organic revenue growth is calculated.
(3)To determine non-GAAP organic revenue growth on a constant currency basis, revenues from entities reporting in foreign currencies were translated to U.S. Dollars using the comparable prior period's quarterly weighted
average foreign currency exchange rates. The primary foreign currencies creating the impact are the Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar and EURO.
