SÃO PAULO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arco Platform Limited, or Arco (Nasdaq: ARCE), today reported financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2020 ended September 30th, 2020.
Letter from Ari de Sá Cavalcante Neto, Arco’s founder and CEO
The year of 2020 has been a testament to the resilience of our business, and we have planted seeds that will help us grow our company for years to come. As technology took a leading role in education overnight, we were able to quickly evolve to better serve existing clients and attract prospects, as well as deliver strong financial and operational results. As student, parent and educator habits changed drastically, we are excited at the opportunity to continue to disrupt our sector and shape the future of education.
While mostly working remotely from the safety of their homes, our team has delivered strong results during the first nine months of 2020. Arco has recorded
The accelerated evolution of our solutions and go-to-market strategy during the period has been a source of pride for us. Within days of the COVID-19 outbreak, we offered our partner schools a portfolio of technology tools, digital content and remote pedagogical support that helped them to continue providing high-quality education to students and perceived value to parents. As a result, we are experiencing high levels of user engagement and customer retention and satisfaction. In our business, trust and reputation are determinant to long term success, and we believe these results will drive growth for years to come.
Additionally, the change in our go-to-market strategy from in-person to digital-first has delivered a record number of leads at a lower cost per lead than past commercial cycles. Since September, when schools started to reopen and our sales team resumed travel, we have seen a strong rebound in new school intake. We expect to deliver solid annual contract value (ACV) growth of 20 to
The evolution in the way we operate and serve our clients has further reinforced our brand reputation, quality and distribution. While some companies perished and other benefited only in the short term, Arco emerges stronger with brighter long-term perspectives. With a

Key Business Metrics
ACV Bookings: we define ACV Bookings as the revenue we would contractually expect to recognize from a partner school in each school year pursuant to the terms of our contract with such partner school, assuming no further additions or reductions in the number of enrolled students that will access our content at such partner school in such school year (we define “school year” for purposes of calculation of ACV Bookings as the twelve-month period starting in October of the previous year to September of the mentioned current year). We calculate ACV Bookings by multiplying the number of enrolled students at each partner school with the average ticket per student per year; the related number of enrolled students and average ticket per student per year are each calculated in accordance with the terms of each contract with the related partner school.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board—IASB, we use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Margin, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow which are non-GAAP financial measures.
We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as profit (loss) for the year (or period) plus/minus income taxes, plus/minus finance result, plus depreciation and amortization, plus share of loss of equity-accounted investees, plus share-based compensation plan, restricted stock units and provision for payroll taxes (restricted stock units), plus M&A expenses, plus non-recurring expenses and plus effects related to COVID-19 pandemic. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Revenue.
We calculate Adjusted Net Income as profit (loss) for the year (or period) plus share-based compensation plan, restricted stock units and provision for payroll taxes (restricted stock units), plus amortization of intangible assets from business combinations (which refers to the amortization of the following intangible assets from business combinations: (i) rights on contracts, (ii) customer relationships, (iii) educational system, (iv) trademarks, (v) non-compete agreement and (vi) software resulting from acquisitions), plus/minus changes in fair value of derivative instruments (which refers to (i) changes in fair value of derivative instruments—finance income, and plus (ii) changes in fair value of derivative instruments—finance costs), plus/minus changes in accounts payable to selling shareholders plus share of loss of equity-accounted investees, plus/minus changes in current and deferred tax recognized in statements of income applied to all adjustments to net income, plus/minus foreign exchange gains/loss on cash and cash equivalents, plus/minus interest expenses (income), net, plus M&A expenses, plus non-recurring expenses and plus effects related to COVID-19 pandemic. We calculate Adjusted Net Income Margin as Adjusted Net Income divided by Net Revenue.
We calculate Free Cash Flow as Net Cash Flows from Operating activities less acquisition of property and equipment less acquisition of intangible assets. We consider Free Cash Flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by operating activities and cash used for investments in property and equipment required to maintain and grow our business. We calculate Adjusted Free Cash Flow as free cash flow for the year (or period) plus (i) interest change in financial investments, (ii) M&A expenses and,(iii) non-recurring expenses.
We understand that, although Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Margin, Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow are used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluation of companies, these measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results of operations as reported under IFRS. Additionally, our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Margin Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Free Cash Flow may be different from the calculation used by other companies, including our competitors in the education services industry, and therefore, our measures may not be comparable to those of other companies.
