Insights

Financial Analyst

Examining Q2 Holdings' recent financial disclosures, a retail investor should note the revenue growth, both year-over-year and sequentially from the previous quarter. However, a deeper dig reveals a widening GAAP net loss year-over-year, which could be indicative of underlying cost pressures or investment phases. The increased gross margin suggests improved efficiency or a potentially favorable shift in sales mix. From a financial health perspective, the growth in Subscription Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) and the substantial backlog are positive indicators, reflecting a strong and possibly stable future revenue stream. The ARR growth rate outpaces the revenue growth, signifying a strategic focus on recurring revenue models, which are often preferred for their predictability. Adjusted EBITDA is another key metric, showing operational profitability excluding certain non-cash expenses and one-time items. The increase here aligns with management's narrative of cost efficiencies. The upward revision of full-year guidance is usually a bullish signal, implying management's confidence in the company's trajectory. However, investors must balance this against the net loss figures and understand how the company plans to bridge the gap to profitability.

Market Research Analyst

From a competitive standpoint, Q2 Holdings' emphasis on their single-platform approach for retail, SMB and commercial customers is a significant differentiator in the digital banking solutions market. The financial services sector is increasingly seeking integration and streamlined operations, which Q2's offerings cater to. Their ability to secure new customers and expand relationships within existing ones, particularly noted with the Tier 1 contracts, indicates market acceptance and the effectiveness of their sales strategy. Additionally, the Innovation Studio seems to be resonating well with clients, as evidenced by its inclusion in all new digital banking wins this quarter. The reported possibility of expansion opportunities within their existing customer base to the tune of $3 billion in ARR, including a large portion from Tier 1 customers, suggests room for considerable growth. Investors should pay attention to how Q2 capitalizes on these opportunities and whether they translate into continued ARR growth and eventual profitability.

Technology Industry Analyst

Q2 Holdings' focus on digital transformation in the financial sector is timely, as the industry is in the midst of a technological shift. Q2's product strategy, particularly the Innovation Studio, aligns with current trends towards customization and agility in digital services. The mentioned benefits of their platform, such as combined revenue share and cost savings contributing to financial impact for clients, demonstrate practical value creation. For long-term investors, the technological depth of Q2's products and their alignment with industry evolution are just as important as the current financials. By leveraging its continuous innovation, Q2 positions itself to stay relevant and competitive, which is important for sustained growth in a technology-driven industry.

“We had a strong start to the year with highlights across the business,” said Q2 CEO Matt Flake. “We saw continued favorable sales execution with a broad mix of new and expansion wins in the quarter. Our single-platform approach that allows customers to serve both retail and commercial users, paired with the strength and diversity of our customer base, continues to drive meaningful expansion opportunities as a complement to our net new execution. And as we continue to execute on our profitable growth strategy, we believe we're well positioned to drive long-term value creation.”

First Quarter Highlights

• Signed four Tier 1 digital banking contracts including:

• Two new banks to utilize our retail and SMB solutions, with one also adding commercial in their initial agreement.

• Two expansion agreements with existing customers, resulting in both customers now utilizing the Q2 digital banking platform for retail, SMB and commercial solutions.

• Signed a greater number of total Tier 2 and 3 digital banking contracts during the quarter, compared to any quarter in 2023.

• Signed two Tier 1 expansion deals with existing customers utilizing our relationship pricing solutions.

• Subscription Annualized Recurring Revenue increased to $615.1 million, up 18 percent year-over-year from $521.3 million at the end of the first quarter of 2023.

• Remaining Performance Obligations total, or Backlog, increased by $83 million sequentially, resulting in a total committed Backlog of approximately $1.9 billion at quarter-end, representing 5 percent sequential growth and 25 percent year-over-year growth.

Q2's Digital Banking Platform servicing Retail, Small-to-Medium Business (SMB) and Commercial Solutions Continues to Drive New Customer Wins and Expansion Opportunities

Q2's single-platform approach, developed over two decades, enables financial institutions to serve retail, small business, and commercial customers with one solution. With Q2, customers can optimize their operations by merging various systems into one cohesive platform. This consolidation enhances the user experience and empowers customers to leverage our comprehensive technology ecosystem to boost operational efficiencies.

Q2’s single platform also enables key elements of Q2’s product strategy, such as Q2 Innovation Studio, which allows customers to swiftly introduce new digital banking solutions to their end users and was included in every net new digital banking win in the quarter. Integration with Q2 Innovation Studio’s growing partner ecosystem provides the opportunity for real financial impact for financial institutions, with several customers reporting they have seen combined revenue share and cost savings from the platform that exceed more than half of the contractual fees they pay for their Q2 solutions.

After a record sales and bookings performance in the fourth quarter of 2023, the benefits of Q2’s single-platform approach continued to drive net new sales momentum in the first quarter of 2024, with a strong concentration of Tier 2 digital banking deals and two net new Tier 1 wins.

In addition to driving net new sales success, Q2’s single platform and broad, diverse customer base create significant expansion opportunities with existing customers. For example, during the first quarter, Q2 closed two significant Tier 1 cross-sales where an existing customer that began with one aspect of the platform (e.g., retail) purchased the other (e.g., commercial). In one of these cases, contracted cross-sale revenue more than doubled the expected revenue contribution of the customer relationship.

Q2 estimates that its customer base, spanning approximately 1,400 customers, presents an expansion opportunity of $3 billion in ARR, with nearly one-third of that from Tier 1 customers alone.

“For the first quarter, we delivered both revenue and adjusted EBITDA results above the high end of our guidance,” said Q2 CFO David Mehok. “Our results were driven from subscription revenue associated with bookings and strong organic growth, complemented by cost efficiencies across the business. We are raising our full-year outlook for both revenue and adjusted EBITDA as we continue to execute on our longer-term financial targets.”

Financial Outlook

As of May 1, 2024, Q2 Holdings is providing guidance for its second quarter of 2024 and updated guidance for its full-year 2024, which represents Q2 Holdings’ current estimates on Q2 Holdings’ operations and financial results. The financial information below represents forward-looking, non-GAAP financial information, including estimates of non-GAAP revenue and adjusted EBITDA. GAAP net loss is the most comparable GAAP measure to adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA differs from GAAP net loss in that it excludes items such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, transaction-related costs, interest and other (income) expense, income taxes, lease and other restructuring charges, gain on extinguishment of debt and the impact to deferred revenue from purchase accounting. Q2 Holdings is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort. Therefore, Q2 Holdings has not provided guidance for GAAP net loss or a reconciliation of the forward-looking adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net loss. However, it is important to note that these excluded items could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP in future periods.

Q2 Holdings is providing guidance for its second quarter of 2024 as follows:

• Total non-GAAP revenue of $169.0 million to $172.0 million, which would represent year-over-year growth of 9 percent to 11 percent.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $26.0 million to $28.0 million, representing 15 to 16 percent of non-GAAP revenue for the quarter.

Q2 Holdings is providing updated guidance for the full-year 2024 as follows:

• Total non-GAAP revenue of $686.0 million to $692.0 million, which would represent year-over-year growth of 10 to 11 percent.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $110.0 million to $114.0 million, representing 16 to 17 percent of non-GAAP revenue for the year.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Q2 uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP revenue; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted EBITDA margin; non-GAAP gross margin; non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP sales and marketing expense; non-GAAP research and development expense; non-GAAP general and administrative expense; non-GAAP operating expense; non-GAAP operating income (loss); and free cash flow. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures of operating performance because they exclude items that Q2 does not consider indicative of its core performance.

In the case of non-GAAP revenue, Q2 adjusts revenue to exclude the impact to deferred revenue from purchase accounting adjustments. In the case of adjusted EBITDA, Q2 adjusts net loss for such items as interest and other (income) expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, transaction-related costs, lease and other restructuring charges, gain on extinguishment of debt and the impact to deferred revenue from purchase accounting. In the case of adjusted EBITDA margin, Q2 calculates adjusted EBITDA margin by dividing adjusted EBITDA by non-GAAP revenue. In the case of non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP gross profit, Q2 adjusts gross profit and gross margin for stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired technology, transaction-related costs, lease and other restructuring charges and the impact to deferred revenue from purchase accounting. In the case of non-GAAP sales and marketing expense, non-GAAP research and development expense, and non-GAAP general and administrative expense, Q2 adjusts the corresponding GAAP expense to exclude stock-based compensation. Non-GAAP operating expense is calculated by taking the sum of non-GAAP sales and marketing expenses, non-GAAP research and development expense, and non-GAAP general and administrative expense. In the case of non-GAAP operating income (loss), Q2 adjusts operating income (loss), for stock-based compensation, transaction-related costs, amortization of acquired technology, amortization of acquired intangibles, lease and other restructuring charges, and the impact to deferred revenue from purchase accounting. In the case of free cash flow, Q2 adjusts net cash provided by (used in) operating activities for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs.

There are limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting and may not be completely comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential differences in the exact method of calculation between companies. Certain items that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures can have a material impact on operating and net income (loss). As a result, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, the closest GAAP measures, or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation to the closest GAAP measures of these non-GAAP measures is contained in tabular form on the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Q2’s management uses these non-GAAP measures as measures of operating performance; to prepare Q2’s annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of Q2’s business; to evaluate the effectiveness of Q2’s business strategies; to provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance; to facilitate a comparison of Q2’s results with those of other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results; and in communication with our board of directors concerning Q2’s financial performance.
