Insights

Financial Analyst

OneSpan's Q3 results demonstrate a strategic shift towards higher-margin subscription revenues amid overall revenue decline. The $56.2M total revenue represents a 4% YoY decrease, but subscription revenue grew impressively by 29%. The company's profitability metrics show significant improvement, with operating income reaching $11.3M compared to a $4.8M loss last year.

The Digital Agreements segment shows strong momentum with 18% YoY growth to $15.4M, while Security Solutions declined 11% to $40.8M. The improved gross margin of 74% and robust Adjusted EBITDA of $16.7M reflect successful cost management. The narrowed revenue guidance but increased Adjusted EBITDA outlook suggests effective execution of cost-saving initiatives while transitioning to a subscription-based model.

• Operating income was $11.3 million, compared to an operating loss of $4.8 million in the year-ago period
• Revenue decreased 4% year-over-year to $56.2 million
• Subscription revenue increased 29% year-over-year to $33.6 million
• Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) increased 9% year-over-year to $163.9 million¹

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- OneSpan Inc. (NASDAQ: OSPN) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“We reported another strong quarter of subscription growth, profitability and cash generation driven by our team’s hard work and operational focus,” stated OneSpan CEO, Victor Limongelli. “The OneSpan team has done a tremendous job in delivering value to our customers while increasing our profitability. We are now much better positioned to drive efficient revenue growth over the long-term.”

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

• Total revenue was $56.2 million, a decrease of 4% compared to $58.8 million for the same quarter of 2023. Digital Agreements revenue was $15.4 million, an increase of 18% year-over-year. Security Solutions revenue was $40.8 million, a decrease of 11% year-over-year.
• ARR increased 9% year-over-year to $163.9 million.
• Gross profit was $41.5 million, or 74% gross margin, compared to $40.7 million, or 69% in the same period last year.
• Operating income was $11.3 million, compared to operating loss of $4.8 million in the same period last year.
• Net income was $8.3 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $4.1 million, or $(0.10) per diluted share, in the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income was $13.1 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share in the same period last year.³
• Adjusted EBITDA was $16.7 million, compared to $6.3 million in the same period last year.³
• Cash and cash equivalents were $77.5 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $43.0 million at December 31, 2023.

Financial Outlook

For the full year 2024, OneSpan is narrowing the range of its previously issued revenue guidance to reflect a reduction in anticipated hardware token shipments, partially offset by stronger than previously expected subscription revenues. The Company is affirming its ARR guidance and is increasing its Adjusted EBITDA guidance to reflect stronger than originally anticipated operating leverage driven by improved execution of its cost savings initiatives.

More specifically, for the Full Year 2024, OneSpan expects:

• Revenue to be in the range of $238 million to $242 million, as compared to its previous guidance range of $238 million to $246 million.
• ARR to finish the year in the range of $166 million to $170 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $65 million to $67 million, as compared to its previous guidance range of $55 million to $59 million.

____________________________________________

1. ARR is calculated as the approximate annualized value of our customer recurring contracts as of the measurement date. These include subscription, term-based license, and maintenance and support contracts and exclude one-time fees. To the extent that we are negotiating a renewal with a customer within 90 days after the expiration of a recurring contract, we continue to include that revenue in ARR if we are actively in discussion with the customer for a new recurring contract or renewal and the customer has not notified us of an intention to not renew. See our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 for additional information describing how we define ARR, including how ARR differs from GAAP revenue.
2. NRR is defined as the approximate year-over-year growth in ARR from the same set of customers at the end of the prior year period.
3. An explanation of the use of Non-GAAP financial measures is included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” A reconciliation of each Non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure has also been provided in the tables below. We are not providing a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because we are unable to predict certain items included in GAAP net income without unreasonable efforts.

Operating Segments

Since the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we have reported our financial results under the following two lines of business, which are our reportable operating segments: Digital Agreements and Security Solutions.

• Digital Agreements. Digital Agreements consists of solutions that enable our clients to secure and automate business processes associated with their digital agreement and customer transaction lifecycles that require consent, non-repudiation and compliance. These solutions, which are largely cloud-based, include OneSpan Sign e-signature, OneSpan Notary, and Identity Verification. This segment also includes costs attributable to our transaction cloud platform.
• Security Solutions. Security Solutions consists of our broad portfolio of software products, software development kits (SDKs) and Digipass authenticator devices that are used to build applications designed to defend against attacks on digital transactions across online environments, devices, and applications. The software products and SDKs included in the Security Solutions segment are largely on-premises software products and include multi-factor authentication and transaction signing solutions, such as mobile application security and mobile software tokens.

Segment operating income consists of the revenues generated by a segment, less the direct costs of revenue, sales and marketing, research and development expenses, amortization expense, and restructuring and other related charges that are incurred directly by a segment. Unallocated corporate costs include costs related to administrative functions that are performed in a centralized manner that are not attributable to a particular segment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We report financial results in accordance with GAAP. We also evaluate our performance using certain Non-GAAP financial metrics, namely Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share. Our management believes that these measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial metrics, provide useful supplemental information regarding the performance of our business, as further discussed in the descriptions of each of these Non-GAAP metrics below.

These Non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives or substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. While we believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures are useful for the purposes described below, they have limitations associated with their use, since they exclude items that may have a material impact on our reported results and may be different from similar measures used by other companies. Additional information about the Non-GAAP financial measures and reconciliations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures appear below.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, restructuring and other related charges, and certain non-recurring items, including acquisition related costs, rebranding costs, and non-routine shareholder matters. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a simplified measure of performance for use in communicating our performance to investors and analysts and for comparisons to other companies within our industry. As a performance measure, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a view of our operating results that is most closely related to serving our customers. By excluding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, restructuring costs, and certain other non-recurring items, we are able to evaluate performance without considering decisions that, in most cases, are not directly related to meeting our customers’ requirements and were either made in prior periods (e.g., depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, non-routine shareholder matters), deal with the structure or financing of the business (e.g., interest, one-time strategic action costs, restructuring costs, impairment charges) or reflect the application of regulations that are outside of the control of our management team (e.g., taxes). In addition, removing the impact of these items helps us compare our core business performance with that of our competitors.

Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share

We define Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Per Diluted Share as net income (loss) or net income (loss) per diluted share, as applicable, before the consideration of long-term incentive compensation expenses, the amortization of intangible assets, restructuring costs, and certain other non-recurring items. We use these measures to assess the impact of our performance excluding items that can significantly impact the comparison of our results between periods and the comparison to competitor results.

We exclude long-term incentive compensation expense because our long-term incentives generally reflect the use of restricted stock unit grants or cash incentive grants, including incentives directly tied to the performance of the business, while other companies may use different forms of incentives that have different cost impacts, which makes comparison difficult. We exclude amortization of intangible assets as we believe the amount of such expense in any given period may not be correlated directly to the performance of the business operations and that such expenses can vary significantly between periods as a result of new acquisitions, the full amortization of previously acquired intangible assets, or the write down of such assets due to an impairment event. However, intangible assets contribute to current and future revenue, and related amortization expense will recur in future periods until expired or written down.

We also exclude certain non-recurring items including one-time strategic action costs and non-recurring shareholder matters, as these items are unrelated to the operations of our core business. By excluding these items, we are better able to compare the operating results of our underlying core business from one reporting period to the next.

We make a tax adjustment based on the above adjustments resulting in an effective tax rate on a Non-GAAP basis, which may differ from the GAAP tax rate. We believe the effective tax rates we use in the adjustment are reasonable estimates of the overall tax rates for the Company under its global operating structure.
