Delivers Adjusted ARR growth of 29% year-over-year

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Software intelligence company Dynatrace (NYSE: DT) today released financial results for the third quarter of its fiscal 2023 ended December 31, 2022.

“Dynatrace delivered another strong quarter, beating expectations across the board and demonstrating the durability of our business model that supports a balance of growth and profitability,” said Rick McConnell, Chief Executive Officer. “The secular tailwinds of digital transformation and particularly cloud modernization are driving an explosion in data, making observability increasingly mandatory across all industries as companies look to realize greater value from their IT spend. We remain focused on driving innovation to meet customers' evolving needs, managing the business prudently, and investing thoughtfully in strategic priorities.”

Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 and Other Recent Business Highlights:
All growth rates are compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022, unless otherwise noted.

Financial Highlights:

• Total ARR of $1,163 million, Adjusted ARR growth of 29% year-over-year
• Total Revenue of $297 million, up 29% on a constant currency basis
• Subscription Revenue of $279 million, up 29% on a constant currency basis
• Operating Income of $34 million and Non-GAAP Operating Income of $81 million
• EPS of $0.05 and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.25, both on a dilutive basis

Business Highlights:

• Analyst and Customer recognition: Dynatrace was named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps), Q4 2022 report with the top scores in both the Current Offering and Strategy categories. In addition, Dynatrace is a Leader in the Gartner® 2022 Magic Quadrant™ for Application Performance Monitoring and Observability¹. In the last quarter, we were also named a Customers’ Choice in the 2022 Gartner Peer Insights™ ‘Voice of the Customer’: Application Performance Monitoring and Observability². We are the only provider with Industry and Customer recognition in this market.

• Expanded partnerships: Dynatrace is working closely with ten strategic Global System Integrators (GSIs) to help customers digitally transform their businesses and reduce cloud complexity. We continue to see a robust technical readiness investment from our key strategic GSIs resulting in over 500 individuals trained or certified on the Dynatrace platform. We are beginning to see early traction with these partnerships, including a recent seven-figure deal in Latin America. And as more workloads move to the cloud, we continue to gain leverage from the frictionless go-to-market motion of our hyperscaler relationships. On a trailing-twelve-month basis, business transacted through these partners, including AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft, is more than 1.6x compared to the same period last year.

• Ongoing platform expansion: We expanded the Dynatrace Grail data lakehouse to power business analytics. This builds on existing support for log analytics and management and is designed to drive accurate, reliable, and cost-effective automation and analytics covering a wide range of business use cases, including order fulfillment, customer service activation, and the impact on revenue from new digital services.

Financial Outlook
Since March 31, 2022, Dynatrace has seen an incremental strengthening of the U.S. dollar resulting in a foreign exchange ("FX") headwind in fiscal 2023. Total FY23 FX impact on a constant currency basis is expected to be approximately $30 million on ARR, down from prior quarter expectations of approximately $60 million. Total FY23 FX impact is expected to be approximately $45 million on Revenue, down from prior quarter expectations of approximately $60 million.

Growth rates for Adjusted ARR, Total revenue, and Subscription revenue are presented in constant currency in the table below to provide better visibility into the underlying growth of the business.

Based on information available, as of February 1, 2023, Dynatrace is issuing guidance for the fourth quarter and updating guidance for full year fiscal 2023 as follows:

Our guidance is based on foreign exchange rates as of the end of December.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per diluted share and free cash flow guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures; in particular, the measures and effects of share-based compensation expense, employer taxes and tax deductions specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by future hiring, turnover and retention needs, as well as unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price. We expect the variability of the above charges to have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures & Key Metrics

In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, this press release and the accompanying tables contain certain non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Dynatrace considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful indicators of its performance and liquidity measures. These are key measures used by our management and board of directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In addition, investors often use similar measures to evaluate the performance of a company. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only for understanding the company’s operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. The GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to each non-GAAP financial measure used or discussed, and a reconciliation of the differences between each non-GAAP financial measure and the comparable GAAP financial measure, are included in this press release after the consolidated financial statements.

Dynatrace presents constant currency amounts for Revenue and Annual Recurring Revenue to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the average exchange rates from the comparative period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in the last fiscal year. Dynatrace provides this non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding our performance.

Annual Recurring Revenue “ARR” is defined as the daily revenue of all subscription agreements that are actively generating revenue as of the last day of the reporting period multiplied by 365. We exclude from our calculation of Total ARR any revenues derived from month-to-month agreements and/or product usage overage billings.

Adjusted ARR is defined as ARR excluding the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations that occurred over the trailing twelve month period. This calculation also excludes the headwind associated with the Dynatrace^® perpetual license ARR that rolled off in the trailing twelve month period.

Adjusted ARR Growth is defined as year-over-year growth in Adjusted ARR divided by ARR as reported.

Dynatrace^® Net Expansion Rate is defined as the Dynatrace^® ARR at the end of a reporting period for the cohort of Dynatrace^® accounts as of one year prior to the date of calculation, divided by the Dynatrace^® ARR one year prior to the date of calculation for that same cohort. This calculation excludes the benefit of Dynatrace^® ARR resulting from the conversion of Classic products to the Dynatrace^® platform. Effective the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, we began to exclude the headwind associated with the Dynatrace perpetual license ARR given diminishing impact of perpetual license ARR. We believe that eliminating the perpetual license headwind will result in a Net Expansion Rate metric that better reflects Dynatrace’s ability to expand existing customer relationships. We present Dynatrace^® net expansion rate on a constant currency basis to provide a framework for assessing how our business performed excluding the effects of foreign currency rate fluctuations.

Dynatrace customers are defined as accounts, as identified by a unique account identifier, that generate at least $10,000 of Dynatrace^® ARR as of the reporting date. In infrequent cases, a single large organization may comprise multiple customer accounts when there are distinct divisions, departments or subsidiaries that operate and make purchasing decisions independently from the parent organization. In cases where multiple customer accounts exist under a single organization, each customer account is counted separately based on a mutually exclusive accounting of ARR.

Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures.
