Market Research Analyst

Q2's strategic positioning in the financial services digital transformation space is yielding results, evidenced by six major Enterprise and Tier 1 deals, including three Top 50 U.S. banks. The company's ability to secure both new contracts and expansions with existing clients shows strong product-market fit and customer satisfaction.

The diverse win mix across retail, SMB and commercial solutions, plus the success in relationship pricing, indicates broad market acceptance. The 50% of incremental ARR coming from existing customers suggests strong platform stickiness and upsell potential. The Helix platform expansion and Q2 Fabric adoption demonstrate successful execution of the embedded finance strategy.

We believe these results and our continued success in winning and expanding our relationships with financial institutions of all sizes reflects our position as a leader in the market.”

Third Quarter Highlights

Six Enterprise & Tier 1 Contracts Demonstrate Continued Broad-Based Sales Success

• Signed two Enterprise & one Tier 1 digital banking contracts, including:
  • Two new banks, one for Q2’s retail solutions, and the other to utilize its retail, SMB and commercial solutions.
  • One expansion with an Enterprise Bank, adding commercial solutions.
• Signed two Enterprise & one Tier 1 relationship pricing contracts, including:
  • Two new banks, highlighted by a top 50 US bank.
  • One expansion with an Enterprise Bank, adding treasury pricing solutions.
• Signed a new contract with Envisant, to utilize our Q2 Fabric offering, which combines Helix's embedded finance platform with Q2's digital banking capabilities.
• Subscription Annualized Recurring Revenue increased to $654.6 million, up 20 percent year-over-year.
• Remaining Performance Obligations total, or Backlog, increased by $78 million sequentially and a record $467 million year-over-year, resulting in a total committed Backlog of over $2.0 billion at quarter-end, representing 4 percent sequential growth and 30 percent year-over-year growth.

Q2's Comprehensive Solutions Continue to Drive Robust Bookings

Q2 delivered broad-based bookings activity in the quarter across digital banking and relationship pricing with both new and existing customers. The third quarter was the strongest cross-sale bookings quarter so far in 2024, with nearly 50% of incremental annual recurring revenue (ARR) bookings coming from existing customers.

The versatility of Q2's digital banking platform continued to be a differentiator in the quarter, as the three Enterprise & Tier 1 wins included two Top 50 banks as well as a new Tier 1 bank, formed through an acquisition. The largest digital banking win was with a Tier 2 bank which adopted the entire platform of retail, SMB and commercial solutions, further diversifying the bookings strength in the third quarter.

Relationship pricing saw meaningful bookings in the quarter, highlighted by three Enterprise & Tier 1 wins, including two top 50 banks, and the largest overall ARR deal in the quarter, which was also the fifth largest relationship pricing deal in company history.

Helix bookings activity included a significant renewal and expansion with one of its largest customers in the quarter, as well as a material net new Q2 Fabric win with Envisant, a credit union service organization.

“We are pleased with our third quarter results, which exceeded our guidance and achieved our total revenue Rule of 30 target set at the beginning of 2023," said Q2 Prospective CFO Jonathan Price. "Our subscription revenue now accounts for over 80% of our total revenue, reflecting the strength of our business model. We've made substantial progress in free cash flow generation, and as we look ahead, we remain focused on growing our higher-margin recurring revenue streams and improving operational efficiency.”

Financial Outlook

As of November 6, 2024, Q2 Holdings is providing guidance for its fourth 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 Q2's results computed in accordance with GAAP in future periods.

Q2 Holdings is providing guidance for the fourth quarter of 2024 as follows:

• Total non-GAAP revenue of $178.1 million - $181.1 million, which would represent year-over-year growth of 10 to 12 percent.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $34.3 million - $36.3 million, representing 19 to 20 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 $691.5 million - $694.5 million, which would represent year-over-year growth of 11 percent.

• Adjusted EBITDA of $122.0 million - $124.0 million, representing 18 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.
