MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Confluent, Inc. (NASDAQ: CFLT), the platform for data in motion, today announced financial results for its third quarter 2021, ended September 30, 2021.

“Harnessing the power of data in motion is a major factor in determining which organizations win in the modern era,” said Jay Kreps, co-founder and CEO, Confluent. “This imperative - combined with the massive cross-industry migration to the public cloud - has driven an acceleration to 245% year-over-year growth for Confluent Cloud as organizations look for a platform that connects and processes all of their data, everywhere it is.”

“We delivered our first quarter with more than one hundred million dollars in total revenue, a milestone for our business, and saw continued year-over-year growth acceleration in total revenue, Confluent Cloud revenue, and remaining performance obligations,” said Steffan Tomlinson, CFO, Confluent. “Our strong dollar-based net retention rate, which once again exceeded 130% in the third quarter, is a testament to the power of our data-in-motion platform and the strength of our go-to-market model.”

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights
(In millions, except per share data and percentages)

	Q3 2021	Q3 2020	Y/Y Change
Total Revenue	$102.6	$61.5	67%
Remaining Performance Obligations	$385.0	$220.2	75%
GAAP Operating Loss(1)	$(94.8)	$(140.0)	$45.2
Non-GAAP Operating Loss	$(42.6)	$(19.7)	$(22.9)
GAAP Net Loss Per Share(1)	$(0.37)	$(1.34)	$0.97
Non-GAAP Net Loss Per Share	$(0.17)	$(0.18)	$0.01
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities	$(18.0)	$(9.2)	$(8.8)
Free Cash Flow	$(20.6)	$(10.3)	$(10.3)

A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release. For a description of these non-GAAP financial measures, including the reasons management uses each measure, please see the section titled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

(1) Includes the one-time impact of $111.9 million of stock-based compensation expense in connection with a tender offer and secondary sales of our common stock and convertible founder stock in Q3 2020.

Financial Outlook
For the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2021, Confluent expects:

	Q4 2021 Outlook	Fiscal 2021 Outlook
Total Revenue	$108-$110 million	$376-$378 million
Non-GAAP Operating Loss	$(59)-$(57) million	$(170)-$(168) million
Non-GAAP Net Loss Per Share	$(0.23)-$(0.21)	$(0.92)-$(0.90)

A reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort, as certain items cannot be reasonably predicted because of their high variability, complexity and low visibility. In particular, the measures and effects of our stock-based compensation expense specific to our equity compensation awards and employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions are directly impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions and unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price, which we expect to have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and free cash flow. We use these non-GAAP financial measures and other key metrics internally to facilitate analysis of our financial and business trends and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations, or outlook. However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and are presented for supplemental informational purposes only. They should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In particular, other companies, including companies in our industry, may report non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, free cash flow or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Further, free cash flow is not a substitute for cash used in operating activities. The utility of free cash flow is limited as such measure does not reflect our future contractual commitments and does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for any given period. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as presented below. We define non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share as the respective GAAP balances, adjusted for, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense; employer taxes on employee stock transactions; common stock charitable donation expense; and income tax effects associated with these adjustments. We define free cash flow as net cash used in operating activities less capitalized internal-use software costs and capital expenditures. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the performance of core operations and future ability to generate cash that can be used for strategic opportunities or investing in our business.

Other Business Metrics

Remaining performance obligations (“RPO”) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized as of the end of each period, including both deferred revenue that has been invoiced and non-cancelable committed amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. RPO excludes pay-as-you-go arrangements. RPO may also fluctuate due to a number of factors, including the timing of renewals, average contract terms, seasonality, and dollar amount of customer contracts. RPO as a metric is not necessarily indicative of future revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers’ consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity.

Customers with $100,000 or greater in annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) represent the number of customers that contributed $100,000 or more in ARR as of period end. ARR is the subscription revenue contractually expected to be received from customers over the following 12 months assuming no increases or reductions in subscriptions. ARR excludes services and pay-as-you-go arrangements. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat all affiliated entities with the same parent organization as a single customer and include pay-as-you-go customers. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity.

Dollar-based net retention rate (“NRR”) as of a period end is calculated by starting with the ARR from the cohort of all customers as of 12 months prior to such period end (“Prior Period Value”). We calculate the ARR from these same customers as of the current period end (“Current Period Value”), which includes any growth in the value of subscriptions and is net of contraction or attrition over the prior 12 months. Services and pay-as-you-go arrangements are excluded from the calculation of ARR. We then divide the Current Period Value by the Prior Period Value to arrive at our dollar-based NRR. The dollar-based NRR includes the effect, on a dollar-weighted value basis, of our subscriptions that expand, renew, contract, or attrit, but excludes ARR from new customers in the current period. Our dollar-based NRR is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity.
