GTM - NASDAQ

Good day and thank you for standing by. Welcome to the

Great. Thanks so much. Welcome to

Thank you, Jerry, and welcome everyone. The first quarter was a great start to the year. We continue to successfully execute our strategy and drive growth across all of our major initiatives. Our expanding RevOS platform, which is deeply integrated with our world-class data and insights layer is resonating with customers. We are increasingly seeing customers embrace the integrated platform experience, running more and more of their sales stack on

Thanks, Henry. Q1 was another terrific quarter in terms of execution and growth. We outperformed all areas of our guidance and executed well across our portfolio of growth initiatives, including enterprise, international and emerging advanced functionality in the platform. The demand environment remains strong companies continue to invest behind improving their go-to-market motions and the platform strategy is resonating with customers. We are confident that given the tremendous value we provide to customers and our current narrow level of market penetration that we will be able to drive durable growth regardless of the economic environment. As a result, we are raising our full year guidance for revenue to $1.06 million to $1.07 billion and adjusted operating income to $418 million to $424 million. At the midpoint, this represents revenue growth of 43% in an adjusted operating income margin of 40%. For 2022, we expect to deliver more than $1 per share and unlevered free cash flow. In Q1, we delivered GAAP revenue of $242 million, up 58% year-over-year, which implies 11% sequential growth compared to Q4 2021 as adjusted for days in the quarter. Excluding the impact of products acquired within the last 12 months, organic revenue growth for the quarter was 49%. Adjusted operating income in Q1 was $96 million a margin of the 39%. With respect to our international business, we are driving strong growth and success for customers outside the U.S. We invested in growing our sales team in London and also committed to further expanding in India and Israel. Revenue from international customers is 12% of total revenue and grew over 80% in Q1 relative to last year. Our investment in the enterprise motion and advanced functionality within our platform continue to drive engagement and growth with our customers. This is reflected in the addition of more than 150 customers with more than $100,000 in ACV and further penetration of our recently expanded MarketingOS and TalentOS offerings. Turning to the balance sheet and cash flow, we ended the first quarter with $407 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Operating cash flow in Q1 was $105 million, which included approximately $20 million of interest payments. Unlevered free cash flow was $126 million for the quarter or 131% of adjusted operating income. We continued to expect that on an annual basis, unlevered free cash flow conversion will be in the range of 100% to 110% as a percentage of adjusted operating income. Following the end of the quarter, we acquired comparably and Dogpatch Advisors for approximately $145 million in cash, net of cash acquired. We expect these acquisitions to contribute revenue in the low teens, millions of dollars in 2022, and create a modest drag on margins of 1 to 2 points for the remaining quarters this year. While these acquisitions are small and we’ll have only a modest impact on our financials in 2022, we expect them to be accretive to growth and operating income in 2023 and forward. With respect to liabilities and future performance obligations, unearned revenue at the end of the quarter was $406 million in remaining performance obligations or RPO were $918 million of which $715 million are expected to be delivered in the next 12 months. We believe that calculated billings and RPO are imprecise metrics to assess in period activity and forward momentum. As a result, we focus on days adjusted sequential revenue growth. We delivered 11% days adjusted sequential revenue growth in the first quarter. At the end of Q1, we carried $1.25 billion in gross debt. With continued growth, we saw an improvement in leverage in the quarter with a net leverage ratio of 2.4 times trailing 12 months adjusted EBITDA and 1.8 times trailing 12 months cash EBITDA, which is defined as consolidated EBITDA in our credit agreements. We also recently received upgrades from both Moody’s and S&P to Ba3 and BB respectively for our corporate ratings. Following the launch of our inaugural ESG report, we also received an upgrade from MSCI with our ESG rating upgraded to AA. With that, I will provide our outlook for the second quarter and increased outlook for full year 2022 results. For Q2, we expect GAAP revenue in the range of $253 million to $255 million and adjusted operating income in the range of $98 million to $100 million. Non-GAAP net income is expected to be in the range of $0.17 to $0.18 per share. Our Q2 guidance implies year-over-year GAAP revenue growth of 46% at the midpoint in an adjusted operating income margin of 39%. We are providing updated full year 2022 guidance as follows. We expect GAAP revenue in the range of $1.06 billion to $1.07 billion, up $50 million from our prior guidance. An adjusted operating income in the range of $418 million to $424 million, up from $410 million at the midpoint of our prior guidance. We expect non-GAAP income in the range of $0.75 to $0.77 per share based on 411 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding, up from 72 points at the midpoint previously. For unlevered free cash flow, we expect to generate between $435 million and $445 million up from $430 million at the midpoint previously. Our full year guidance implies 43% GAAP revenue growth at the midpoint up from 36% at the midpoint of our prior guidance and our full year guidance also implies an adjusted operating income margin of 40% and an unlevered free cash flow margin of 41%. With that, let me turn it over to the operator to open the call for questions.

Certainly. [Operator Instructions] And our first question comes from Phil Winslow of Credit Suisse. Your line is open.

Hey, guys. Thanks for taking my question and I congratulate another great quarter. I mean, obviously, you saw a strong organic growth again at 49%, but one of the metrics that jumped out at me was the revenue from required products over the past 12 months, $13 million versus $10.4 million, obviously, underscoring some of the comments Henry you made about RingLead and Chorus AI but I guess, two questions follow up on that. What are customers telling you now that you’ve had RingLead and Chorus inside of

Thanks, Phil. I think, first, customers are out there trying to modernize their go-to-market stacks. And so they’re out looking for solutions that do lead routing and lead scoring in real time, they’re out there looking for B2B chat for their website. They’re out there looking for conversation intelligence to improve the insights that they have on their sales teams to hear the voice of the customer. And so what – and they’re already customers of

And Phil with respect to sales efficiency, naturally, as you’re selling more complex solutions, the sales cycles at times can be a little longer. But what we’ve found is that by integrating the conversations with a solution that our customers are already taking advantage of and getting real value out of that we’re able to compress those sales cycles versus what you might see otherwise. So while sales efficiency might move around a little as we’re continuing to invest in different initiatives, whether that’s international or enterprise or more complex products, et cetera. We expect to be able to maintain an industry leading level of sales efficiency going forward to continue to grow our sales and marketing capacities, so that we can grow sales and marketing for our new revenues as well.

Great. Thanks team. Keep up the great work.

Our next question comes from Mark Murphy of J.P. Morgan. Your line is open.

Yes. Thank you. I’ll add my congrats on just a great quarter. Cameron, I was wondering, can you just confirm Dogpatch Advisors, is that an acqui-hire of something like one to two people that it looks like it’s something kind of small. And then Comparably, for Henry, I, I think of Comparably as competing against Glassdoor for kind of the best places to work awards. Is any of their data applicable to generating sales leads or is that a 100% designed to kind of solidify what you’re doing with the HR and recruiter and TalentOS product lines.

So Dogpatch first. Yes, Dogpatch and Comparably are both the reasonably small Dogpatch is a small company, but it was definitely more than an acqui-hire where they have relationships and a history of really delivering great go-to-market consulting engagements for large clients. So it’s a handful of people, but I think that they very much box outside of their class in terms of the value they’re able to deliver. And we think that by bringing that on and being able to deliver those engagement, that we’ll be able to further accelerate the solutions that we’re offering as well.

And on Comparably – look, we are very focused on Comparably adding value to our TalentOS platform that’s where we’re focused with that acquisition. Now Comparably does a lot more than just the employee reviews that you see online behind that is a suite of SaaS tool that allows HR and recruiting professionals to easily create content for their careers pages, for their recruiters that allow them to quickly solicit feedback from their employees through Slack and email and easy to use survey solutions that they’re able to quickly deploy. And so what we see in the marketplace today is the most challenging hiring environment in history. When we hear from our recruiting clients and our TalentOS platform clients is that they are struggling to find the right candidates to fill their job roles, where historically they could post something on a job board and instantly get candidates. That’s not the case anymore. They’re out there direct sourcing the candidates they need to be able to reach their goals. And we think the combination of the recruitment marketing and employer branding suite that Comparably ads combined with the sourcing and engagement and digitization tools that we provide inside of TalentOS makes for a really important solution at a really important time in our hiring history.

Thank you.

Thanks, Mark.

And our next question comes from Raimo Lenschow of Barclays. Your line is open.

Thanks for taking my questions. Congrats from me as well. Can I talk a little bit more higher level, I mean, obviously this year, it was the year where you have more focused on Europe. And you kind of talked about the opening of the offices in London, et cetera. What’s the – is there any impact on the piece of push into Europe from [indiscernible]. Do you seeing anything and do you see anything on the U.S. side in theory, your solution is helping people to get to their clients better, but like any impact from macro on Europe and the U.S. Thank you and congrats.

Yes. Thanks, Raimo. So we really don’t see any impact on Europe at this point or in the U.S. Our customers are almost entirely selling to other businesses and are in most cases looking for ways to do so more effectively and efficiently. And I think if anything in times of stress, historically, you look – you see that businesses are looking to either take out efficiencies or invest in things that have a faster time to value than other solutions. And I think in all cases, our solution helps our customers be more effective, be more efficient, and is also something that whenever they’re adding additional functionality or coming on for the first time, it’s something that they see immediate time to value, which makes it a great solution when you see times of stress, whether that’s in Europe or potentially a broader economic down in the U.S.

Yes. Thank you.

And our next question comes from DJ Hynes of Canaccord. Your line is open.

Hey, thank you guys. Great set of numbers. Henry, so you added a very experienced Chief Compliance Officer back in January. I know we had a ton of expertise, particularly, in the UK. Now that Simon’s had a quarter plus under his belt, any – can you share any observations or recommendations he’s made around

Yes. Look, I think the big thing that we’ve seen with Simon is, number one, I think access to a network of privacy professionals that we’re looking to recruit and bring in to

Perfect. Thank you.

Our next question comes from Siti Panigrahi of Mizuho. Your line is open.

Mizuho. Yes. Thank you. Thanks for taking my question. I just want to ask about the customer Net Ad, more than 100,000 that’s very impressive. What is the cross sell going within installed base versus getting new customer, large customer getting multiple products.

So Siti, thanks for joining. You cut out just a little in the middle there, but I think your question was that for those customers that we added that are over a 100k how much of that is existing customers that are upselling versus customers that are coming on and buying a number of different parts of the platform. It – as has been historically the case, we tend to land customers with a kind of smaller offering or sometimes a trial and then expand and grow them over time. So that continues to be the case that we’ve – that most of the customers that we add in that 100k cohort are customers that started at a smaller level with us and we've upsell. But there does continue to be momentum in customers coming on over 100k. Yes, I think last year, we started to see a little bit more momentum, and that's continued in Q1, where a growing number of customers are coming in at 200k or 500k and then continuing to grow from there as well.

Thank you.

And our next question comes from Michael Turrin of Wells Fargo. Your line is open.

Hey there. Thanks. Good afternoon. Op margins holding in at the high 30s, again, this here in Q1, guide suggest margins remain somewhere around those levels for the rest of the year. Cameron, is that a level you're comfortable suggesting you'd expect margins to stabilize around? And then it sounded like the margin delta versus the prior guide is most entirely attributable to some of the M&A you called out, but that the growth guide still suggests meaningful increase on an organic basis. Is that a fair characterization or anything else you'd add to just help us compare and contrast the full year outlook of what you last provided? Thank you.

Yes, absolutely. So from a margin perspective, certainly, we are focused on the construct that we laid out last year at our Analyst Day, where margins are somewhat inversely correlated to growth. So the faster we grow, the more investment we have upfront into bringing customers on and implementing those customers. And so at the levels of growth where we're at today, growing organically around 50%. I think the margins that we've laid out and certainly within the guidance or what we'd expect to continue to operate at, if we're able to accelerate that growth, then it is possible that margins would come down somewhat. And certainly, as we grow off a larger and larger base and that growth moderates a little. We’d expect the margins to drift up.

Thank you.

Thanks.

And our next question comes from Parker Lane of Stifel. Your line is open.

Yes, hi. Thanks for taking the question. Henry, I wanted to talk about TalentOS a little bit here. Would it be fair to say that the majority of the success you've had there so far has been with customers that have used something like SalesOS in the past? And – are you beginning to see an uptick in the number of organizations that are attracted to

I think our focus from a go-to-market perspective, Parker, has been focused on the customer base where we already have relationships with the customers. We're already through procurement and privacy and security review where we can accelerate time to the sales cycle within those accounts. That being said, we're also seeing demand from new customers come in as well. And so we feel really good about the way that we're positioned to have those conversations. And when you think about the breadth of people who are using the solution from everything from The Cheesecake Factory to Redfin, there's a broad assortment of companies who get value out of that platform. Now the user of TalentOS is obviously not the same user as the SalesOS platform. It is a different area in the business. So, I wouldn't say that the actual end user was also a user of SalesOS, but the customers, our focus has been on the customer base today.

Very helpful. Thank you.

And our next question comes from Kash Rangan of Goldman Sachs. Your line is open.

Hey guys congratulations on the quarter. Henry, strategically, when I look at the different pieces of the puzzle you’re trying to put together TalentOS, Marketing, Sales, Operations, et cetera, it looks like the company is getting a piece of other categories, budgets through levers in MarketingOS, TalentOS, OperationsOS, SalesOS previously, you're doing it in a way that is synergistic with your core data platform. Can you talk about how far you can go? And who are the categories that you're gaining share from in each of these domains as you put the pieces of the puzzle together? And if that is successful, how much more upside do you see with your core group of data platform customers? How much can that lead to in terms of ACV multiples relative to where you are with the core product if a customer were to completely buy into all layers of your RevOS? Thank you so much and congrats.

Thanks Kash. It's an interesting question. When we first founded

And I think when we think about the ACV or the potential for growth within our customers. Certainly, it's early days with the MarketingOS and even with the OperationsOS at this point. But we have customers where the value proposition that we're able to provide in marketing and operations, in some cases, can be greater than even what they're deriving from the SalesOS. So we have customers that are actually spending more on those particular parts of the platform than they are just on sales. So, I think when we look at the opportunity to expand within our customers that we could expand by multiples of what we're currently earning for just the SalesOS, where that's the only thing that's deployed.

And retention would improve to arguably, right? So that's the good news.

Retention definitely improves as our customers are using more advanced functionality. We already see that there is a significant level of retention improvement for those customers as well.

Thanks, gentlemen.

And our next question comes from Keith Weiss of Morgan Stanley. Your line is open.

Hi, this is Elizabeth Porter on for Keith Weiss. Thank you so much. I was hoping to get an update on the government opportunity. What is on the uptake of being able to purchase in through the GSA schedule how should we think about monetizing that opportunity? Thanks.

Yes. I think the way to think about it today is that we're in really early days of that opportunity. We are seeing good momentum as we come out as we've come out with an offering for the government and through the GSA schedule. But it's really early days in that opportunity. Lots of promise, and we've stated the team to go after that opportunity, but it's still really early days.

Got it. Thank you.

And our next question comes from Alex

Hey guys, thanks for taking my questions. Congrats on a great quarter. I guess maybe – just at a high level, you talked about the demand environment, not really seeing much of an impact from all the macro factors. If I isolate that to the large deal environment, Henry called out that deal with Alphabet, there was eight figures. How should we think about the pipeline for those types of engagements, not necessarily figure, but just large deals. How do you think about that pipeline this year given the demand? And then maybe for Cameron, for the last, I want to say, four quarters, I think. I know they're in perfect metrics, but I believe the calculated billings as run ahead of current RPO and current RPO bookings. And that slipped this quarter were current RPO and current RPO bookings are growing faster than the billings on the P&L. Any sense for why that would be? Or anything to call out there would be helpful.

So if we start on the pipeline, I'll just jump in real quick. Realistically, the macro factors, if you isolated into two kind of areas, one being, obviously, the conflicts in Eastern Europe and the second being fears of a potential recession. We don't see any impact on our large deals. Realistically, we don't do much business in Eastern Europe historically, and that's not kind of one of the primary areas where we're focusing right now. So large deals are unimpacted by that. And certainly, in terms of any potential recession or recession thoughts, I think for larger deals, those are customers that are leaning in even harder to being more efficient and more effective. So, I think that those sorts of customers are more likely to focus on where they can get quick time to value, and that's something that I can imagine even accelerating sales cycles around that as opposed to decelerating, because our system is so focused on that quick time to value and generating efficiency and effectiveness for go-to-market motions. On the billings and bookings discussion, I think it's worth pointing out that if you look at the ratio of billings to bookings, Q1 of last year, so Q1 of 2021 was actually, by far, the highest ratio of bookings to billings or the ratio of billings to bookings, sorry. And that largely related to when we came out of COVID, there was like a deferral of some of our bookings and certainly more of our bookings were done quarterly in like Q2 and Q3 of 2020 than they had been historically. So that's just another one of those levels of noise where bookings and billings can be imperfect metrics when you're looking at growth. And certainly, the compare in Q1 of 2021, I think, distorts that the kind of growth figures that you'd otherwise be looking at.

Perfect. Thank you guys.

Yes, thanks Brad.

And our next question comes from Rishi Jaluria of RBC. Your line is open.

Wonderful. Thanks so much for taking my questions and nice to see continued strengthen the business. Just a simple one in terms of geography. So you're expanding your presence in Europe. You opened up your first office in India. I want to get a sense for how do you think about the opportunity, especially in emerging markets? Because it seems pretty obvious, the G7 or the natural adjacency – but hoping up in India, it seems like a completely different base. Maybe can you walk us through how you're thinking about that international opportunity and specifically in emerging markets? Thanks.

Yes. I think as it relates to India, the bulk of the talent we have there is around customer success, support, product management and engineering. And so the India opportunity we see as one that can help us more manage time zones across the world with customer success and support and product which interfaces the product engineering teams interface with our Israel R&D operation than it is from a go-to-market perspective. Today, from a go-to-market perspective, we think the London office as well as in the future, potentially Australia, New

Great. Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Koji Ikeda of Bank of America. Your line is open.

Hey, Henry, hey Cameron. Thanks for taking my question. I wanted to build upon a prior question about TalentOS with its potential for being a primary land and actually kind of shifting it over to MarketingOS here. So clearly, a new product, I understand that, but it has some unique features in there. It has account-based marketing. It has an ad tech ASP. I mean, are you also seeing inbound demand for MarketingOS as a stand-alone basis? And if you are, maybe you could share what are some of the pain points that those customers are looking to try and solve it the

Yes. Great question. We are seeing inbound demand for MarketingOS from an outbound perspective, we are still focused on our existing customer base for that where we have existing relationships with sales and often marketing. Many of our customers on the SalesOS platform are using it for marketing-related audience building or marketing automation campaign, form completion enrichment. And so we already have a; bulk of a big amount of our customers who are from the marketing department. And so what we've done is go out to them, show them the expanded capabilities of the MarketingOS platform and we're getting more and more of them to sign up for that. We do believe when we have these conversations, one of the first things we hear is, look, we spend a lot of time building high-value audiences to deploy through marketing automation to deploy through our sales team and our outbound efforts and we'd love to have a way to build an audience and deploy through the display ad networks and to deploy through the social media network. And our solution because it's built on this 150 million professional profiles across 150 million company profile, we were able to let marketers build a B2B audience inside of

Got it. Thanks Henry. Thanks so much.

Our next question comes from Taylor McGinnis of UBS. Your line is open.

Yes, hi. Thanks for taking my question. So a question on the margin outlook. It seems like a good portion of the outperformance is coming from Chorus, Engage, TalentOS and some of the newer opportunities. So as these pieces become a bigger portion of the mix, Cameron, is there anything to keep in mind from potential impact or differences in the margin structure of some of these at the early stage?

And certainly, one of the pieces around the acquisitions that we've done is taking companies that have less of a focus on sales efficiency and putting them into our model, where we're able to generate incremental sales on a much more efficient basis. So I think that what we see, if you think about the margin kind of outlook going forward is that from some of those earlier acquisitions, they'll continue to become a little bit more efficient as they're kind of more deeply integrated into the model, but then we have newer acquisitions where we need to, again go through that process of realizing some of that synergy and kind of integrating into the platform where we're able to get those faster sales cycles running as well. So I think that the construct that we've laid out before, where at a 40-ish kind of type of growth rate, which is where we were around when we went public, we'd be able to deliver margins in those kind of mid-40s extended the acquisitions. I think we're very comfortable with that. And obviously, at the levels that we're growing now stepped up levels, we expect margins to continue in the kind of high 30s, low 40s. And as we grow off that larger and larger base, and growth rates start to moderate a little, but we'll see those margins drift back up over time.

Great. Thanks.

Thank you.

And our next question comes from Brent Bracelin of Piper Sandler. Your line is open.

Good afternoon. I guess, Henry, Cameron, great to hear companies like Alphabet, Shopify leading into the platform, I guess, at a high level, the vision to move up into apps from just the core data layer seems to be resonating – my question here is if you just think about this quarter biggest dollar beat operating profits that you've seen since the IPO, really strong cash flows. – what is the appetite to do more on M&A, particularly given valuations in cloud software are much lower today, are you seeing more M&A opportunities? Are there bigger M&A opportunities clearly, the strategy is resonating. Love to get any thoughts on what the appetite here is given the momentum you have. Thanks.

Yes. Thank you for the question. I think layering on to what Cameron just finished saying. We feel really good about our ability to take various technologies, integrate them with our data and then take them to market as a proven way to grow. Today, we have a really clear vision for how we want our platform to evolve. We're doing content analysis around that vision around build, buy or partner to achieve that vision. We understand the ecosystems across our four personas. And if we see something that matches our vision and the criteria that we've laid out around M&A, you'll see us take a close look.

And Brent, I'd probably layer on to that. One of the secrets about being really good at M&A is being disciplined and making sure that it meets the criteria that we've set up historically. And so we plan to continue that. I think valuations, I think, in the public markets have certainly come down, but sometimes it takes a little while for private valuations to fully mirror the reality that kind of come to be. So while there are opportunities out there, we're more focused on just meeting our kind of core criteria than we are on where valuations are moving or anything else.

Got it. Makes sense. Thanks. Helpful color.

Now, last question comes from Brian Peterson of Raymond James. Your line is open.

This is Chase [ph] on for Brian. Thanks for taking my question. Just one from our side. Can you guys elaborate on the announcement of the

Yes, I think – so the launch of

Perfect. Thanks.

I would now like to turn the conference back to Mr. Henry Schuck for closing remarks.

Great. Thank you, everyone. We hope that you can join us virtually for the Analyst Day on June 2 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern. We're excited to share more with you about our platform approach and our leading combination of both growth and profitability. Thank you.
