Insights
The reported total revenue increase of 12% indicates a solid trajectory for BigCommerce and aligns with a healthy growth pattern in the tech sector. A close look at the annual revenue run-rate (ARR) shows a steady ascent, although the 7% year-over-year rise is a bit tempered compared to the total revenue growth. This could suggest a maturing market or increased competition.
Significantly, the net income improvement—nearly a 23-point increase as a percent of revenue—reflects tighter cost control and potentially improved operational efficiency. Investors should appreciate the swing from a GAAP net loss of <$22.1> million to a GAAP net loss of <$6.4> million. However, the persistence of operating losses, even though reduced, warrants caution.
Gross margin enhancements are marginal but indicate a sustainable cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) management. The shift towards enterprise customers, now comprising 73% of the total ARR, suggests a strategic focus on higher-value accounts.
For the retail investor, the jump in non-GAAP operating income to $3.2 million from a loss of <$6.4> million should be recognized as a positive indicator of underlying business health, away from accounting adjustments. The disclosed outlook for Q2 and the full year 2024 reflects conservative optimism, with single-digit revenue growth projections and an expected continuation of non-GAAP operating income. This suggests confidence but also acknowledges the competitive and dynamic nature of the ecommerce platform market.
BigCommerce's emphasis on enterprise accounts underscores a strategic pivot towards larger clients, which could offer more stability and increase customer lifetime value. The 8% growth in this segment also speaks to the effectiveness of this approach in a fiercely competitive market.
Geographical revenue growth showcases global market penetration, with EMEA leading at a 15% increase. This is a critical data point for investors, as it may indicate successful international expansion strategies and could help buffer against regional market volatility.
The unveiling of the Catalyst storefront technology and Open Source B2B Buyer Portal is poised to catalyze further growth. In the tech industry, continuous innovation is a cornerstone for maintaining competitive advantage. Investors ought to pay attention to customer and market responses to these new offerings, as they could significantly affect future revenue streams.
Finally, the focus on Multi-Storefront capabilities and integrations reflects a trend towards customization and flexibility in ecommerce solutions. Potentially, this could lead to increased market share as businesses seek platforms that can offer personalized shopping experiences.
The release of over 100 platform enhancements and integrations is a testament to BigCommerce's commitment to evolving its offerings and staying at the forefront of ecommerce technology trends. From a technological standpoint, their approach towards composable commerce, which allows for more modular and flexible storefronts, could be a game-changer in the market and attract a new tier of tech-savvy merchants.
The introduction of Feedonomics' Instant Commerce could revolutionize fulfillment by enabling same-day delivery, a significant value addition in today's on-demand economy. As an investor, understanding the potential for such features to disrupt standard operations and attract premier clientele is crucial.
Given the technical nature of these updates and the potential to disrupt the market, there's a notable opportunity for BigCommerce to capture more market share, which could positively impact long-term financials.

However, not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements may relate to our market size and growth strategy, our estimated and projected costs, margins, revenue, expenditures and customer and financial growth rates, our Q2 and 2024 financial outlook, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth, initiatives or strategies. By their nature, these statements are subject to numerous uncertainties and risks, including factors beyond our control, that could cause actual results, performance or achievement to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These assumptions, uncertainties and risks include that, among others, our business would be harmed by any decline in new customers, renewals or upgrades, our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects and future results of operations, we operate in competitive markets, we may not be able to sustain our revenue growth rate in the future, our business would be harmed by any significant interruptions, delays or outages in services from our platform or certain social media platforms, and a cybersecurity-related attack, significant data breach or disruption of the information technology systems or networks could negatively affect our business. Additional risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements are included under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the future quarterly and current reports that we file with the SEC.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have provided in this press release certain financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Our management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believes that use of these Non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar Non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of our historical Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations.
Annual Revenue Run-Rate
We calculate annual revenue run-rate (“ARR”) at the end of each month as the sum of: (1) contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue, and (2) the sum of the trailing twelve-month non-recurring and variable revenue, which includes one-time partner integrations, one-time fees, payments revenue share, and any other revenue that is non-recurring and variable.
Enterprise Account Metrics
To measure the effectiveness of our ability to execute against our growth strategy, particularly within the mid-market and enterprise business segments, we calculate ARR attributable to Enterprise Accounts. We define Enterprise Accounts as accounts with at least one unique Enterprise plan subscription or an enterprise level feed management subscription (collectively “Enterprise Accounts”). These accounts may have more than one Enterprise plan or a combination of Enterprise plans and Essentials plans.
Average Revenue Per Account
We calculate average revenue per account (ARPA) for accounts in the Enterprise cohort at the end of a period by including customer-billed revenue and an allocation of partner and services revenue, where applicable. We allocate partner revenue, where applicable, primarily based on each customer’s share of GMV processed through that partner’s solution. For partner revenue that is not directly linked to customer usage of a partner’s solution, we allocate such revenue based on each customer’s share of total platform GMV. Each account’s partner revenue allocation is calculated by taking the account’s trailing twelve-month partner revenue, then dividing by twelve to create a monthly average to apply to the applicable period in order to normalize ARPA for seasonality.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, depreciation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, interest income, interest expense, restructuring charges, other non-operating income and expense and our provision or benefit for income taxes. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss.
Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss)
We define Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss) as our GAAP Loss from operations, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and restructuring charges. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our loss from operations.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)
We define Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) as our GAAP net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, and restructuring charges. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our net loss.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) per Share
We define Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) per Share as our Non-GAAP Net Loss, defined above, divided by our basic and diluted GAAP weighted average shares outstanding. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our net loss per share.
Free Cash Flow
We define Free Cash flow as our GAAP cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less our GAAP purchases of property and equipment (Capital Expenditures). The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities.
