Insights
When analyzing the financial performance of nCino, Inc., the reported increase in total revenues by 13% in Q4 and 17% for the fiscal year 2024 indicates a consistent upward trajectory in the company's earnings. This performance is particularly noteworthy in the context of the global financial services industry, which has been facing various challenges such as fluctuating interest rates and regulatory changes.
The subscription revenues, which saw a 16% increase in Q4 and a 19% rise for the fiscal year, suggest a solidifying recurring revenue stream. This metric is critical as it points to the sustainability and predictability of future earnings. Investors often value companies with strong subscription-based models due to the stable cash flow they can provide.
However, the announcement of the Chief Revenue Officer transition could signal upcoming strategic shifts or potential disruptions in sales processes. It is important to monitor how this change will affect the company's revenue growth momentum in the subsequent quarters.
From a market perspective, nCino's growth in subscription revenue is indicative of a broader trend towards cloud-based solutions in the financial services sector. As financial institutions continue to invest in digital transformation, nCino's cloud banking platform appears to be capturing more market share. This is likely contributing to the company's revenue growth.
Moreover, the company's performance should be contextualized within the competitive landscape. If nCino is outpacing its competitors in terms of revenue growth, it could be gaining a competitive advantage. On the flip side, if the industry as a whole is growing at a similar or faster rate, nCino's growth may be in line with market trends rather than indicative of outperformance.
Considering the macroeconomic environment, nCino's revenue growth can be seen as a positive sign of resilience. In periods of economic uncertainty, businesses often cut back on new software investments, making nCino's growth particularly commendable. It's also reflective of an ongoing digital push within the financial sector, which seems to be less sensitive to economic downturns than other industries.
Looking ahead, the company's future performance will likely be influenced by economic factors such as interest rates, which can affect clients' investment capacities. It will be important to observe how nCino navigates these challenges while maintaining its growth trajectory.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In nCino’s public disclosures, nCino has provided non-GAAP measures, which are measurements of financial performance that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. In addition to its GAAP measures, nCino uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally for budgeting and resource allocation purposes and in analyzing our financial results. For the reasons set forth below, nCino believes that excluding the following items provides information that is helpful in understanding our operating results, evaluating our future prospects, comparing our financial results across accounting periods, and comparing our financial results to our peers, many of which provide similar non-GAAP financial measures.
- Amortization of Purchased Intangibles. nCino incurs amortization expense for purchased intangible assets in connection with certain mergers and acquisitions. Because these costs have already been incurred, cannot be recovered, are non-cash, and are affected by the inherent subjective nature of purchase price allocations, nCino excludes these expenses for our internal management reporting processes. nCino’s management also finds it useful to exclude these charges when assessing the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Although nCino excludes amortization expense for purchased intangibles from these non-GAAP measures, management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.
- Stock-Based Compensation Expenses. nCino excludes stock-based compensation expenses primarily because they are non-cash expenses that nCino excludes from our internal management reporting processes. nCino’s management also finds it useful to exclude these expenses when they assess the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Moreover, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use, nCino believes excluding stock-based compensation expenses allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our recurring core business operating results and those of other companies.
- Acquisition-Related Expenses. nCino excludes expenses related to acquisitions as they limit comparability of operating results with prior periods. We believe these costs are non-recurring in nature and outside the ordinary course of business.
- Litigation Expenses. nCino excludes fees and expenses related to litigation expenses incurred from legal matters outside the ordinary course of our business as we believe their exclusion from non-GAAP operating expenses will facilitate a more meaningful explanation of operating results and comparisons with prior period results.
- Restructuring Costs. nCino excludes costs incurred related to bespoke restructuring plans and other one-time costs that are fundamentally different in strategic nature and frequency from ongoing initiatives. We believe excluding these costs facilitates a more consistent comparison of operating performance over time. Adjustments to stock-based compensation in connection with restructuring events are presented in Stock-Based Compensation Expenses.
- Tax (Benefit) Provision Related to the SimpleNexus Acquisition. Upon the acquisition of SimpleNexus, nCino reduced the valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets, resulting in a one-time tax benefit recorded in Income tax (benefit) provision. We believe that the exclusion of this benefit from our non-GAAP net loss attributable to nCino and non-GAAP net loss attributable to nCino per share provides a more direct comparison to all periods presented.
- Income Tax Effect on Non-GAAP Adjustments. The income tax effects are related to the imputed tax impact on the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP costs and expenses.
- Adjustment to Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest. nCino adjusts the value of redeemable non-controlling interest of its joint venture nCino K.K. in accordance with the operating agreement for that entity. nCino believes investors benefit from an understanding of the company’s operating results absent the effect of this adjustment, and for comparability, has reconciled this adjustment for previously reported non-GAAP results.
There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures because non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by nCino’s management about which items are adjusted to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures. nCino compensates for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing GAAP measures in its public disclosures. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. nCino encourages investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business, and to view our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables below.
