Financial Commentary
“We are pleased with our performance in the third quarter and are excited about the initiatives we implemented that we expect will drive future performance”, said CFO John Pence. “We expect the acquisitions we completed will generate economies of scale and enhance our margins in the future, which is a key focal point for the organization. We also closed a new and flexible credit facility with Structural Capital, in a new partnership that we expect will provide runway for further acquisitions and value creation. We have a variety of funding sources that should enable us to continue to invest with increased financial flexibility. Our efforts in the quarter represent a solid step forward in achieving our strategy and goals.”
Product Development
Asure continues to enhance its HCM platform to better serve our clients, and, in the third quarter, we rolled out two significant product enhancements. First, we've reimagined our suite of small business payroll and HR solutions into a single HCM product so payroll clients can now take advantage of all our HR capabilities in one place with a fresh new look. The pandemic accelerated virtual work and we've responded by making HR features like touchless onboarding, electronic signatures for company documents, and improved employee self-service capabilities part of our standard payroll offering.
We are also proud to announce a new integration with Employee Navigator, a leader in benefits administration software to over 60,000 companies and 10 million employees and dependents. For clients who use the Employee Navigator platform for open enrollment and updating insurance carriers, this integration automatically keeps employee data in sync between our payroll system and the carriers. Many health insurance brokers rely on the Employee Navigator platform to serve their clients. Accordingly, this integration will enable seamless communication between our systems which will advance to the next level our broker referral strategy.
Guidance
We are providing the following guidance for the fourth quarter of 2021 and fiscal year 2022 based on our third quarter results and our recent acquisitions. This outlook is offered with the backdrop of a continuing challenging environment to predict future economic results given the ebbs and flows of employment trends, COVID and the other economic challenges of today.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes information about Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss), Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) per share, Non-GAAP tax rates, Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP gross profit margin, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, Non-GAAP EBITDA, and Non-GAAP EBITDA margin (collectively the “Non-GAAP financial measures”). These Non-GAAP financial measures are measurements of financial performance that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and computational methods may differ from those used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are reconciled to GAAP in the tables set forth in this release.
EBITDA differs from GAAP Net Income (Loss) in that it excludes items such as interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization. Asure is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort.
Non-GAAP EBITDA differs from EBITDA in that it excludes share-based compensation, and one-time expenses. Asure is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) per share differs from GAAP Net Income (Loss) per share in that it assumes a
Non-GAAP gross profit differs from GAAP gross profit in that it excludes amortization, share-based compensation, and one-time items.
All Non-GAAP measures presented as “margin” are computed by dividing the applicable Non-GAAP financial measure by total revenue.
Management uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP measures when planning, monitoring, and evaluating the Company’s performance.
The primary purpose of using Non-GAAP measures is to provide supplemental information that may prove useful to investors and to enable investors to evaluate the Company’s results in the same way management does.
Management believes that supplementing GAAP disclosure with Non-GAAP disclosure provides investors with a more complete view of the Company’s operational performance and allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in the Company’s business. Further, to the extent that other companies use similar methods in calculating Non-GAAP measures, the provision of supplemental Non-GAAP information can allow for a comparison of the Company’s relative performance against other companies that also report Non-GAAP operating results.
Specifically, management is excluding the following items from its Non-GAAP earnings per share, as applicable, for the periods presented in the third quarter 2021 financial statements:
Share-Based Compensation Expenses. The Company’s compensation strategy includes the use of share-based compensation to attract and retain employees and executives. It is principally aimed at aligning their interests with those of our stockholders and at long-term employee retention, rather than to motivate or reward operational performance for any particular period. Thus, share-based compensation expense varies for reasons that are generally unrelated to operational decisions and performance in any particular period.
Amortization of Purchased Intangibles. The Company views amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company’s research and development efforts, trade names, customer lists and customer relationships, and acquired lease intangibles, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense, one that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.
Income Tax Effects and Adjustments. Beginning in first quarter 2018, the Company started using a fixed projected Non-GAAP tax rate in order to provide better consistency across the interim reporting periods by eliminating the effects of items such as changes in the tax valuation allowance and non-cash tax effects of acquired goodwill and amortization, since each of these can vary in size and frequency. This tax rate could be subject to change for a variety of reasons, such as significant changes in the acquisition activity or fundamental tax law changes in major jurisdictions where the Company operates. The Company re-evaluates this tax rate on an annual basis or when any significant events that may materially affect this rate occur. The Non-GAAP tax rate is currently projected to be approximately zero (0.0) percent.
Amortization of Capitalized Internal-Use Software, Acquisition-Related, and One-Time Expenses. The Company’s Non-GAAP financial measures exclude amortization of internal-use capitalized software costs and acquisition-related expenses as well as one-time expenses, such as material tax credits, material interest-expense credits, severance, recruitment, proforma adjustments of the impact of post-sale HCM restructuring, and relocation.
