Management Commentary
"Our fourth quarter started the next phase of forward momentum for Kaleyra, with revenue exceeding the upper end of our guided range as we build on our existing partnerships, work with new valuable enterprise customer partners, and gain success by layering in higher margin communication channels" said Kaleyra Founder and CEO Dario Calogero. "Our relationships with business partners with their important communications were highlighted by our 27% year-over-year full year record revenue growth. In addition, our adjusted gross profit increased by 25% with an adjusted gross margin of 22.6% year-over-year, further solidifying our leadership position in enterprise CPaaS. Indeed, The Campaign Registry, part of our higher gross margin business portfolios, outperformed by posting significant growth in revenue.

In January 2023, Kaleyra launched a company-wide "Value Creation Program" aimed at improving the efficiency and focus on the core elements of the Company's strategy. This project is expected to deliver results starting in 1Q23 and over the next quarters, with significant cost savings and cash flow improvements already underway."

2023 "Value Creation Program"

Giacomo Dall'Aglio, Kaleyra CFO, commented, "Kaleyra is announcing that the Company has begun its 2023 restructuring and cost reduction program. The program is designed to position Kaleyra to serve the demand from global businesses to interact with their customer base using existing and emerging communication channels, while driving labor and cost efficiencies that are available to Kaleyra from its geographical scale."

The program seeks to achieve the following goals:

• Adjusted EBITDA to exceed 20% growth in FY2023 compared to FY2022, with additional growth in FY2024;
• Organizational streamlining aimed to reduce monthly cash payroll costs by more than 15% in FY2023;
• Increasing net cash provided by operating activities by FY2023 year end compared to FY2022;
• Continue the focus on R&D investments to provide high quality service standards and offer new products to our customers.

"In 2022 our technology managed 51.5 billion messages and 8.1 billion voice calls with over 1,600 operators, including all tier-1 US carriers directly connected. During Q4 Kaleyra signed strategic partnerships with telecom operators in important markets including PLDT in the Philippines and Claro in Central America. Direct connectivity is vital to reduce costs and to ensure needed quality to serve global enterprise customers. Looking ahead into 2023, we will continue to build our partnership pipeline and develop our technologies," concluded Calogero.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results
Results compare the 2022 fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022, to the 2021 fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, unless otherwise indicated.

• Total revenue was $93.7 million, an increase of 4.1% from $90.0 million in the comparable year-ago period ($97.7 million or 8.6% increase using Q42021 foreign exchange rates). The increase in revenue generated in the quarter was mainly driven by new customers and expansion of volume with existing customers.
• Gross profit was $17.0 million compared to $21.1 million in the comparable year-ago period. The decrease in gross profit was mainly due to the growth of the low marginality international business and the higher customer onboarding costs.
• Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 18.2% compared to 23.5% for the fourth quarter of 2021. We expect this will improve as new customers ramp up their volumes.
• Net loss totaled $57.8 million, or $1.28 per share based on 45.2 million weighted-average shares outstanding, compared to a net loss of $7.3 million, or $0.17 per share based on 41.9 million weighted-average shares outstanding, in the comparable year-ago period. The increase in the net loss was predominantly due to an impairment loss on intangible assets of $49.4 million, mainly driven by decreased industry growth expectations and lower cash flow projections.
• Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was $19.0 million from $22.8 million in the comparable year-ago period.
• Adjusted gross margin, also a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was 20.3% for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 25.3% in the comparable year-ago period.
• Adjusted net income (loss), a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was a loss of $4.4 million, or $0.10 per basic and diluted share based on 45.2 million weighted-average shares outstanding, from a net income of $3.9 million, or $0.09 and $0.08 per basic and diluted share based on 41.9 and 51.9 million weighted-average shares outstanding, respectively, in the comparable year-ago period.
• Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was $2.5 million, or 2.6% of total revenue, compared to $9.6 million, or 10.7% of total revenue, in the comparable year-ago period.
• At the end of the fourth quarter, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments were $78.6 million ($82.2 million using foreign exchange rates as of Q42021), compared to $97.9 million as of December 31, 2021
• Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate of 98.1% (139.0% within the top 30 customers).

Full Year 2022 Financial Results
Results compare the 2022 full year ended December 31, 2022, to the 2021 full year ended December 31, 2021, unless otherwise indicated.

• Total revenue increased by 26.7% to $339.2 million from $267.7 million in the comparable year-ago period (32.0% increase using FY2021 foreign exchange rates).  Revenue during the year was driven by the full year contribution of mGage legacy customer revenue, the growth with existing customers coupled with ramping volume with new customers, and a constant focus on enterprise businesses that deliver a large volume of messages.
• Gross profit increased 21.9% to $70.1 million from $57.5 million in the comparable year-ago period. Gross margin for the 2022 full year was 20.7% compared to 21.5% for the 2021 full year.
• Net loss totaled $98.5 million, or $2.25 per share based on 43.9 million weighted-average shares outstanding, compared to a net loss of $34.0 million, or $0.92 per share based on 37.0 million weighted-average shares outstanding, in the comparable year-ago period. The increase in net loss was predominantly due to an impairment loss on intangible assets of $49.4 million.
• Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, increased 24.9% to $76.6 million from $61.4 million in the comparable year-ago period. Adjusted gross margin, also a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below,  for the 2022 full year was 22.6% compared to 22.9% in the comparable year-ago period.
• Adjusted net income (loss), a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was a loss of $1.2 million, or $0.03 per share based on 43.9 million weighted-average shares outstanding, from a net income of $6.1 million, or $0.16 per basic and $0.13 per diluted share based on 37.0 and 48.1 million weighted-average shares outstanding, respectively, in the comparable year-ago period. 
• Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measurement of operating performance reconciled below, was $18.7 million, or 5.5% of total revenue, compared to $18.6 million, or 7.0% of total revenue, in the comparable year-ago period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Related Information
To provide investors and others with additional information regarding Kaleyra's results, the following non-GAAP financial measures, not prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), are disclosed:

• Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit and Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin. For the periods presented, Kaleyra defines non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit and non-GAAP Gross Margin as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, adjusted to exclude, as applicable, certain expenses as presented in the table below;
• Adjusted EBITDA is defined as of any date of calculation, as the consolidated  earnings/(loss) of Kaleyra and its subsidiaries, before finance income and finance cost (including bank charges), tax, depreciation and amortization, plus (i) transaction and one-off expenses, (ii) without duplication of clause (i), severance or change of control payments, (iii) any expenses related to company restructuring, (iv) any compensation expenses relating to stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock or similar equity interests as may be issued by Kaleyra or any of its subsidiaries to its or their employees and (v) any provision for the write-down of assets;
• Non-GAAP Adjusted Net Income (Loss) Per Share, Basic and Diluted. For the periods presented, Kaleyra defines non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, as GAAP net loss and GAAP net loss per share, basic and diluted, respectively, adjusted to exclude, as applicable, certain expenses presented in the table below.
  

Management uses the foregoing non-GAAP financial information, collectively, to evaluate its ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Kaleyra's management believes that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, facilitates period-to-period comparisons of results of operations, and assists in comparisons with other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Whenever Kaleyra uses a non-GAAP financial measure, a reconciliation is provided to the most closely applicable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Operating Metrics
Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate. Kaleyra's ability to drive growth and generate incremental revenue depends, in part, on the Company's ability to maintain and grow its relationships with Active Existing Customer Accounts and to increase their use of the platform. An important way in which Kaleyra has historically tracked performance in this area is by measuring the Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate for those customer accounts. Kaleyra's Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate increases when such customer accounts increase their usage of a product, extend their usage of a product to new applications or adopt a new product. Kaleyra's Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate decreases when such customer accounts cease or reduce their usage of a product or when the Company lowers usage prices on a product. Kaleyra believes that measuring Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate provides a more meaningful indication of the performance of the Company's efforts to increase revenue from existing customers. To calculate the Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate, the Company first identifies the cohort of customer accounts that were customer accounts in the same quarter of the prior year. The Dollar-Based Net Expansion Rate is the quotient obtained by dividing the revenue generated from that cohort in a quarter, by the revenue generated from that same cohort in the corresponding quarter in the prior year. 

Active Existing Customer Accounts. Kaleyra believes that the number of Active Customer Accounts is an important indicator of the growth of its business, the market acceptance of its platform and future revenue trends. Kaleyra defines an Active Customer Account at the end of any reporting period as an individual account, as identified by a unique account identifier, for which Kaleyra has recognized revenue in the period.
