A reconciliation of each Non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2021 and Recent Business Highlights

• Announced the general availability of MongoDB Realm Sync, a fully managed service that synchronizes data between the Realm mobile database and MongoDB Atlas. This new solution addresses the unique technical challenges of mobile and offline-first development, saving developer's time by reducing the amount of code they need to write and the complexity of their application architecture.
• Launched a global partnership with Tencent Cloud, allowing customers to consume MongoDB-as-a-Service across Tencent's global cloud infrastructure and securely build, deploy and scale powerful applications. With this partnership, the two largest cloud providers in China now provide authorized MongoDB managed service offerings, demonstrating the popularity of MongoDB in one of the largest markets in the world.
• Expanded the Google Cloud partnership with deeper technical integrations and joint-customer programs to make MongoDB Atlas easier to consume through the Google Cloud Marketplace. Since the inception of the partnership, we've seen a dramatic increase in new business as customers have selected MongoDB Atlas as a superior alternative to relational database solutions.

Business Outlook

Based on information as of today, March 9, 2021, MongoDB is issuing the following financial guidance for the first quarter and full year fiscal 2022.

	First Quarter Fiscal 2022	Full Year Fiscal 2022
Revenue	$167.0 million to $170.0 million	$745.0 million to $765.0 million
Non-GAAP Loss from Operations	($21.0) million to ($19.0) million	($84.0) million to ($74.0) million
Non-GAAP Net Loss per Share	($0.39) to ($0.36)	($1.55) to ($1.39)

The guidance provided above is forward-looking in nature. Actual results may differ materially. See the cautionary note regarding "Forward-Looking Statements" below. Fluctuations in MongoDB's operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment due to the uncertainty caused by, and the unprecedented nature of, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the severity, duration, and ultimate impact of which is difficult to predict at this time. The situation regarding COVID-19 remains uncertain and could change rapidly, and MongoDB will continue to evaluate its potential impact on its business.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss per share 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 stock-based compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by 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.

Conference Call Information

MongoDB will host a conference call today, March 9, 2021, at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) to discuss its financial results and business outlook. A live webcast of the call will be available on the "Investor Relations" page of MongoDB's website at https://investors.mongodb.com.

Additional information will be made available in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2021 and other filings and reports that we may file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by law, we undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release as a result of new information, future events, changes in expectations or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and free cash flow. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin exclude stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude:

• stock-based compensation expense;
• amortization of intangible assets for the acquired technology and acquired customer relationships associated with the prior acquisitions of Realm, mLab and WiredTiger;
• amortization of time-based founder payments associated with the mLab purchase that was deemed to be compensation expense for GAAP purposes;
• acquisition costs associated with the purchase of Realm in fiscal 2020; and
• in the case of non-GAAP net loss, non-cash interest expense related to our convertible senior notes, a non-recurring loss from the early extinguishment of debt related to the partial repurchase in fiscal 2020 of our 0.75% convertible senior notes due 2024 and a non-recurring income tax benefit associated with the acquisition of Realm intangible assets in fiscal 2020.

MongoDB uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating MongoDB's ongoing operational performance. MongoDB believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other companies in MongoDB's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

Free cash flow represents net cash used in operating activities less capital expenditures, principal repayments of finance lease liabilities and capitalized software development costs, if any. MongoDB uses free cash flow to understand and evaluate its liquidity and to generate future operating plans. The exclusion of capital expenditures, principal repayments of finance lease liabilities and amounts capitalized for software development facilitates comparisons of MongoDB's liquidity on a period-to-period basis and excludes items that it does not consider to be indicative of its liquidity. MongoDB believes that free cash flow is a measure of liquidity that provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the strength of its liquidity and future ability to generate cash that can be used for strategic opportunities or investing in its business in the same manner as MongoDB's management and board of directors.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In particular, other companies may report non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net 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. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as presented below. This earnings press release and any future releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can also be found on the Investor Relations page of MongoDB's website at https://investors.mongodb.com.

(a) Direct Sales Customers are customers that were sold through our direct sales force and channel partners.

(b) Represents the number of customers with $100,000 or greater in annualized recurring revenue ("ARR") and annualized monthly recurring revenue ("MRR"). ARR includes the revenue we expect to receive from our customers over the following 12 months based on contractual commitments and, in the case of Direct Sales Customers of MongoDB Atlas, by annualizing the prior 90 days of their actual consumption of MongoDB Atlas, assuming no increases or reductions in their subscriptions or usage. For all other customers of our self-serve products, we calculate annualized MRR by annualizing the prior 30 days of their actual consumption of such products, assuming no increases or reductions in usage. ARR and annualized MRR exclude professional services. Prior to January 31, 2020, ARR from Direct Sales Customers of MongoDB Atlas was based on their contractual commitments instead of their actual consumption. We believe that our new consumption-based ARR calculation better reflects current customer behavior. The impact of this change on prior reported periods is immaterial.
