Insights

Kaltura's Q2 2024 results show modest growth and improved profitability. Revenue reached $44.0 million, a slight increase from Q2 2023. Notably, ARR grew to $165.2 million, up 1% year-over-year. The company achieved non-GAAP operating profit of $0.5 million, a significant improvement from the $2.0 million loss in Q2 2023.

While growth is slow, profitability is improving. Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $1.6 million, compared to negative $1.0 million last year. This marks the fourth consecutive quarter of Adjusted EBITDA profitability. The company's focus on cost management is evident, with reduced net cash used in operations.

However, investors should note the conservative guidance for Q3 and full-year 2024, projecting flat to modest growth. This suggests ongoing challenges in accelerating top-line growth despite positive industry trends mentioned by management.

Kaltura's Q2 results reflect the evolving landscape of enterprise video platforms. The company's success in closing 23 six-digit deals across diverse sectors indicates growing demand for comprehensive video solutions. The launch of AI-driven product enhancements, including speech recognition and sentiment analysis, positions Kaltura at the forefront of the AI revolution in video technology.

The company's focus on consolidating multiple enterprise video use-cases around a single platform aligns with the trend of streamlining digital transformation initiatives. This strategy, coupled with the increasing adoption of hybrid work models, could drive future growth. However, the modest revenue growth suggests that market penetration and upselling remain challenging in a competitive landscape.

Investors should monitor Kaltura's ability to leverage AI innovations to drive user engagement and differentiate its offerings, potentially accelerating growth in the coming quarters.

Kaltura's Q2 performance reflects broader market trends in the enterprise video sector. The company's highest new bookings since Q4 2022 and improved gross retention rate suggest a potential turning point in customer acquisition and retention strategies. The focus on AI-driven features aligns with the industry's direction, potentially enhancing Kaltura's competitive position.

The mention of strong tailwinds, including increased investments in digital transformation and the impact of Gen-Z and millennial employees, indicates favorable market conditions. However, the modest revenue growth suggests that these trends have yet to fully materialize in Kaltura's financial performance.

Investors should watch for signs of accelerated adoption in the second half of 2024, particularly as companies reassess their digital strategies post-pandemic. The company's ability to capitalize on the growing demand for AI-enhanced video experiences could be a key differentiator in driving future growth.

NEW YORK, Aug. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaltura, Inc. (“Kaltura” or the “Company”), the video experience cloud, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, as well as outlook for the third quarter and full year 2024.

“We delivered record annualized recurring revenue ("ARR") in the second quarter, making it our seventh consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth, while also posting a sequential and year-over-year increase in new bookings and sustaining the improved gross retention rate we saw in the first quarter. It was also our fourth consecutive quarter of Adjusted EBITDA profitability, and its highest result since the third quarter of 2020.   Accordingly, we are incrementally raising our revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for the full year and are reaffirming our plans to achieve positive cash flow from operations in 2024,” said Ron Yekutiel, Kaltura Co-founder, Chairman, President and CEO.

Mr. Yekutiel continued “Looking to the second half of 2024 and beyond, we continue to believe there are strong tailwinds ahead of us, as we are seeing companies re-accelerate their investments in digital transformation and online experiences. Fueling these initiatives are factors such as an increasingly hybrid workplace, growth in Gen-Z & millennial video-savvy employees, cost savings by consolidating multiple enterprise video use-cases around a single video platform, and the advent of Gen-AI, which we expect will bring about more creation and consumption of videos and increased ROI. We believe these trends will continue to grow our new bookings, accelerate our revenue growth, and increase our profits.”

The guidance provided above contains forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Kaltura has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net loss within this press release because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. The reconciliation for Adjusted EBITDA includes but is not limited to the following items: stock-based compensation expenses, depreciation, amortization, financial expenses (income), net, provision for income tax, and other non-recurring operating expenses. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net loss, are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control.

Additional information on Kaltura’s reported results, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP measures, is included in the financial tables below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Kaltura has provided in this press release and the accompanying tables measures of financial information that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin (calculated as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP research and development expenses, non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP general and administrative expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP operating margin (calculated as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Kaltura defines these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective corresponding GAAP measure, adjusted for, as applicable: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) the amortization of acquired intangibles; (3) facility exit and transition costs; (4) restructuring charges; and (5) war-related costs. Kaltura defines EBITDA as net profit (loss) before financial expenses (income), net, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (as defined above), adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, such as non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, facility exit and transition costs, restructuring charges and other non-recurring operating expenses. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Kaltura’s financial condition and results of operations. These non-GAAP metrics are a supplemental measure of our performance, are not defined by or presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net profit (loss) or any other performance measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are presented because we believe that they provide useful supplemental information to investors and analysts regarding our operating performance and are frequently used by these parties in evaluating companies in our industry. By presenting these non-GAAP financial measures, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations. Additionally, our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of our performance because they assist us in comparing the operating performance of our business on a consistent basis between periods, as described above. Although we use the non-GAAP financial measures described above, such measures have significant limitations as analytical tools and only supplement but do not replace, our financial statements in accordance with GAAP. See the tables below regarding reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Key Financial and Operating Metrics

Annualized Recurring Revenue. We use Annualized Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) as a measure of our revenue trend and an indicator of our future revenue opportunity from existing recurring customer contracts. We calculate ARR by annualizing our recurring revenue for the most recently completed fiscal quarter. Recurring revenues are generated from SaaS and PaaS subscriptions, as well as term licenses for software installed on the customer's premises (“On-Prem”). For the SaaS and PaaS components, we calculate ARR by annualizing the actual recurring revenue recognized for the latest fiscal quarter. For the On-Prem components for which revenue recognition is not ratable across the license term, we calculate ARR for each contract by dividing the total contract value (excluding professional services) as of the last day of the specified period by the number of days in the contract term and then multiplying by 365. Recurring revenue excludes revenue from one-time professional services and setup fees. ARR is not adjusted for the impact of any known or projected future customer cancellations, upgrades or downgrades or price increases or decreases. The amount of actual revenue that we recognize over any 12-month period is likely to differ from ARR at the beginning of that period, sometimes significantly. This may occur due to new bookings, cancellations, upgrades or downgrades, pending renewals, professional services revenue, foreign exchange rate fluctuations and acquisitions or divestitures. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue as it is an operating metric and is not intended to be a replacement or forecast of revenue. Our calculation of ARR may differ from similarly titled metrics presented by other companies.

Net Dollar Retention Rate. Our Net Dollar Retention Rate, which we use to measure our success in retaining and growing recurring revenue from our existing customers, compares our recognized recurring revenue from a set of customers across comparable periods. We calculate our Net Dollar Retention Rate for a given period as the recognized recurring revenue from the latest reported fiscal quarter from the set of customers whose revenue existed in the reported fiscal quarter from the prior year (the numerator), divided by recognized recurring revenue from such customers for the same fiscal quarter in the prior year (denominator). For annual periods, we report Net Dollar Retention Rate as the arithmetic average of the Net Dollar Retention Rate for all fiscal quarters included in the period. We consider subdivisions of the same legal entity (for example, divisions of a parent company or separate campuses that are part of the same state university system) ,as well as Value-add Resellers (“VARs”) (meaning resellers that directly manage the relationship with the customer) and the customers they manage, to be a single customer for purposes of calculating our Net Dollar Retention Rate. Our calculation of Net Dollar Retention Rate for any fiscal period includes the positive recognized recurring revenue impacts of selling new services to existing customers and the negative recognized recurring revenue impacts of contraction and attrition among this set of customers. Our Net Dollar Retention Rate may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the growing level of our revenue base, the level of penetration within our customer base, expansion of products and features, and our ability to retain our customers. Our calculation of Net Dollar Retention Rate may differ from similarly titled metrics presented by other companies.

Remaining Performance Obligations. Remaining Performance Obligations represents the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been delivered, including both subscription and professional services revenues. Remaining Performance Obligations consists of both deferred revenue and contracted non-cancelable amounts that will be invoiced and recognized in future periods. We expect to recognize 60% of our Remaining Performance Obligations as revenue over the next 12 months, and the remainder thereafter, in each case, in accordance with our revenue recognition policy; however, we cannot guarantee that any portion of our Remaining Performance Obligations will be recognized as revenue within the timeframe we expect or at all.
