Second Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

• Olo deployed a number of leading brands onto the platform across all service-models, including quick service, fast-casual, fine dining, virtual brands, as well as welcomed a number of convenience stores. Notably, Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, a fast casual restaurant with hundreds of locations, deployed Olo’s full stack of digital ordering solutions, including Ordering, Dispatch, Rails, Network, and Olo Pay. Freddy’s represents one of Olo’s newest and largest customers to adopt Olo Pay.
• Olo expanded relationships within its existing customer base, increasing product adoption across several Olo product suites. Brands such as California Fish Grill, CiCis Pizza, and Duck Donuts expanded their usage of Ordering solutions, Twin Peaks and Whataburger expanded their usage of Delivery Enablement solutions, O’Charley’s Restaurant + Bar and Sprinkles adopted Guest Engagement solutions, and On the Border and Smokey Bones adopted Front-of-House solutions.
• Olo hosted its first Quarterly Release Event, showcasing features that empower brands to grow by delivering the best hospitality to their guests. The release included highlights related to Borderless Olo Pay, Sync listings management, scheduled menu changes and more, which may be viewed at https://www.olo.com/quarterly-release.
• Olo earned Best Feature Set and Best Relationship from the TrustRadius Best of Summer Awards. Olo is honored to support restaurant brands and looks forward to delivering on the high expectations brands set for the Company.
• Olo furthered its commitment to being an open platform by growing its diverse technology partner network through completion of its first Ordering module integration with QSR Automations, a market leader in Kitchen Display Systems, or KDS. KDS integrations enable Olo customers to see and optimize all orders, whether on- or off-premise, providing a 360-degree view of all orders in production. This information will allow Olo to provide brands with operational decision-making abilities by including capacity management features that quote and throttle orders based on the real-time kitchen activity levels, ultimately creating a more integrated technology solution for restaurants, and expanding the Company’s vertical offerings throughout the restaurant value chain.
• Olo is committed to building a diverse and inclusive culture that promotes growth and equity for underrepresented groups while supporting and celebrating all voices and perspectives. Olo has updated its DEI website with gender and ethnicity metrics as of June 30, 2022, and remains on track to have its team be composed of 42% women and 18% underrepresented ethnicities by 2024. Olo also furthered its commitment to equity through adoption of a new Equitable Access to Healthcare policy and other actions aimed at supporting its LGBTQ+ employee population.

Financial Outlook

As of August 11, 2022, Olo is issuing the following outlook for the third quarter of 2022 and fiscal year 2022:

For the third quarter of 2022, Olo expects to report:

• Revenue in the range of $46.5 million to $47.0 million; and
• Non-GAAP operating income in the range of $1.8 million to $2.2 million.

For the fiscal year 2022, Olo expects to report:

• Revenue in the range of $183.0 million to $184.0 million; and
• Non-GAAP operating income in the range of $7.6 million to $8.4 million.

The outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond Olo’s control. See the cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” below. Fluctuations in Olo’s operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current macroeconomic environment, which has been characterized by rising inflation and interest rates, lower consumer confidence, uncertainty caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, volatility in part due to the war in Ukraine, and the risk of a global recession, the severity, duration, and ultimate impact of which is difficult to predict at this time. While Olo has benefited from the acceleration of demand for off-premise dining during the COVID-19 pandemic, Olo’s business and financial results could be materially adversely affected in the future if off-premise dining declines.

Olo will host a conference call today, August 11, 2022, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Company’s financial results and financial outlook.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Metrics

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, we refer to non-GAAP financial measures that are derived on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. We use non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, in conjunction with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP for planning purposes, including in the preparation of our annual operating budget, as a measure of our core operating results and the effectiveness of our business strategy, and in evaluating our financial performance. These measures provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance as measured by such non-GAAP figures, facilitate period-to-period comparisons of core operating results, and assist shareholders in better evaluating us by presenting period-over-period operating results without the effect of certain charges or benefits that may not be consistent or comparable across periods.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation. Our use of non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our GAAP financial results. Because our non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

The following are the non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this press release and presented in the tables below: non-GAAP gross profit/margin (and as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP operating expenses (total and each line item, and total and each non-GAAP operating expense item as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP operating income (and as a percentage of revenue), non-GAAP net income (and as a percentage of revenue and on a per share basis), and free cash flow.

We adjust our GAAP financial measures for the following items to calculate one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures (other than free cash flow): stock-based compensation expense (non-cash expense calculated by companies using a variety of valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions) and related payroll tax expense, equity expense related to charitable contributions (non-cash expense), intangible and internal-use software amortization (non-cash expense), change in fair value of warrants, other non-cash charges, severance related to the departure of our Chief Customer Officer, transaction costs incurred within one year of the related acquisition, and related income tax impacts.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income 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 and related payroll tax 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.

Management believes that it is useful to exclude certain non-cash charges and non-core operational charges from non-GAAP operating income because (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations; and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods. For 2022, payroll tax expenses related to equity compensation awards were added to our calculation of non-GAAP operating income. We have historically excluded stock-based compensation expense from non-GAAP operating income, and management believes that excluding the related payroll tax expense is important and consistent, as such payroll tax expenses are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price. Prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current year presentation.

Free cash flow represents net cash provided by or used in operating activities, reduced by purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of internal-use software. Free cash flow is a measure used by management to understand and evaluate our liquidity and to generate future operating plans. Free cash flow excludes items that we do not consider to be indicative of our liquidity. The reduction of capital expenditures facilitates comparisons of our liquidity on a period-to-period basis. We believe providing free cash flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the strength of our liquidity and future ability to generate cash that can be used for strategic opportunities or investing in our business from the perspective of our management and Board of Directors.

Key Performance Indicators

In addition, we also use the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, identify trends affecting the business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions.

Active Locations: We define an active location as a unique restaurant location that is utilizing one or more of our modules at the end of a quarterly period. We believe that active location count is an important metric that demonstrates the growth and scale of our overall business and reflects our ability to attract, engage, and monetize our customers and thereby drive revenue, as well as provides a base to expand usage of our modules.

Average revenue per unit (ARPU): We calculate ARPU by dividing the total platform revenue in a given period by the average active locations in that same period. We believe ARPU is an important metric that measures monetization of our platform and demonstrates our ability to grow within our customer base through the development of products that our customers value.

Dollar-based net revenue retention (NRR): We calculate NRR as of a period-end by starting with the revenue, defined as platform revenue, from the cohort of all active customers as of 12 months prior to such period-end, or the prior period revenue. We then calculate the platform revenue from these same customers as of the current period-end, or the current period revenue. Current period revenue includes any expansion and is net of contraction or attrition over the last 12 months, but excludes platform revenue from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total current period revenue by the total prior period revenue to arrive at the point-in-time dollar-based NRR. We believe that NRR is an important metric demonstrating our ability to retain our customers and expand their use of our modules over time, proving the stability of our revenue base and the long-term value of our customer relationships.
