• Total bookings of 1.5 million, up 27% year-over-year
• Company raises full year 2023 guidance

SEATTLE, May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rover Group, Inc. (“Rover” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ROVR), the world’s largest online marketplace for pet care, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

“We had an excellent start to 2023 - delivering revenue growth of 48% while significantly expanding margins year over year," said Rover co-founder and CEO, Aaron Easterly. "Our team’s strong execution across a broad range of functional areas while remaining focused on managing expenses has resulted in a significant flow through of incremental revenue to the bottom line. We drove meaningful booking volume on the platform while increasing expected customer lifetime value. Looking ahead, we remain focused on achieving profitable growth, sustaining our momentum outside the United States, improving our customer experience and expanding our product portfolio.”

First Quarter 2023 Highlights:

• Revenue increased 48% to $41.1 million, compared to $27.8 million in Q1 2022.
• GBV grew 36% to $209.4 million, compared to $153.7 million in Q1 2022.
• Total Bookings increased 27% to 1.5 million, compared to 1.2 million in Q1 2022. New bookings increased 16% to 208,000, compared to 179,000 in Q1 2022. Repeat bookings increased 29% to 1.3 million, compared to 1.0 million in Q1 2022.
• GAAP net loss and net loss margin were $4.7 million and 11%, compared to a GAAP net loss and net loss margin of $8.1 million and 29% in Q1 2022.
• Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin were $0.6 million and 1%, compared to $(4.8) million and (17)% in Q1 2022.

Outlook

"We are excited by our first quarter performance and are raising our full year guidance incorporating this beat. With more than 80% of our revenue anticipated in the balance of the year, much of our performance is still in front of us," said Charlie Wickers, Rover CFO. "We expect that if a recession is milder or occurs later than we modeled, it may result in incremental upside to our new, increased guidance."

Second Quarter 2023

• Revenue
  • Rover anticipates revenue in the range of $51 - $53 million.
• Adjusted EBITDA
  • Rover anticipates Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $3 - $5 million.

Raised Full Year 2023

• Revenue
  • Rover anticipates revenue in the range of $207 - $217 million, a year-over-year increase of 22% at the midpoint of the projected range.
• Adjusted EBITDA
  • Rover anticipates Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $29 - $34 million, a 15% margin at the midpoint of the projected range.

Both the low and high ends of guidance incorporate the impact of macroeconomic headwinds, including a mild to moderate recession, public health concerns and travel disruptions. The updated guidance range also incorporates a full year of normalized marketing expenses and operating costs compared to a partial year of each in 2022.

In reliance on the exception provided by Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, Rover has not provided the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure to its Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance or a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as stock-based compensation, income tax, change in fair value, and gain or loss from equity method investments. For example, the non-GAAP adjustment for stock-based compensation expense requires additional inputs such as number of shares granted and market price that are not currently ascertainable. Accordingly, a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP metrics to their corresponding GAAP equivalent is not available without unreasonable effort. Because these adjustments are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors that are beyond Rover's control, Rover is also unable to predict their probable significance. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this earnings release, please see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.

Share Repurchase Program

On February 27, 2023, Rover announced that its board of directors approved a share repurchase program with authorization to purchase up to $50 million of Rover's Class A common stock (exclusive of broker commissions and expenses) for a period of 12 months. From commencement of purchasing shares in mid-March through May 3, 2023, Rover repurchased and retired approximately 1.7 million shares for an aggregate amount of approximately $7.4 million (excluding brokers' commissions), including 720,097 shares for an aggregate amount of approximately $3.0 million (excluding brokers' commissions) through March 31, 2023.

Definitions

• A booking is defined as a single arrangement between a pet parent and pet care provider on the Rover services marketplace, which can be for a single night or multiple nights for overnight services, or for a single walk/day/drop-in or multiple walks/days/drop-ins for daytime services. New bookings is defined as the total number of first-time bookings that new users, which Rover refers to as pet parents, book on our platform in a period. Repeat bookings are defined as the total number of bookings from pet parents who have ever had a previous booking on Rover, inclusive of pet parents who had their first booking within the same quarter.
• Gross Booking Value, or GBV, represents the dollar value of bookings on the Rover services marketplace during a period, prior to cancellations, and is inclusive of pet care provider earnings, service fees, add-ons, taxes, and alterations, and is exclusive of tips and Rover's other ancillary revenue streams.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement Rover's condensed consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, Rover uses non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release and/or its related earnings call, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Contribution, Contribution margin, and non-GAAP operating expenses (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”), each as defined below. A reconciliation of the historical Non-GAAP Financial Measures to their most directly comparable historical GAAP financial measures is presented in tabular form at the end of this release immediately following the GAAP financial statements. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are supplemental measures of Rover's performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as an analytical tool, which limitations are described below, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures.

Rover uses the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to evaluate the health of its business, measure its operating performance, identify trends, prepare financial forecasts and make strategic decisions, including those related to operating expenses, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Rover considers the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to be important measures because they help illustrate underlying trends in its business and its historical operating performance on a more consistent basis.

Rover believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, when taken together with their corresponding comparable GAAP financial measure, provide meaningful supplemental information to investors as they provide a basis for period-to-period comparisons of Rover's business by excluding the effect of certain non-cash and cash gains, expenses, losses and variable charges that may not be indicative of its recurring core business, results of operations, or outlook. Rover believes these Non-GAAP Financial Measures are useful to investors because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial, operational and strategic decision-making and in assessing the health of Rover's business and operating performance, (2) are used by Rover's institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of Rover's business, (3) allow investors and others to understand and evaluate Rover's operating results in the same manner as Rover's management and board of directors, and (4) provide a reasonable basis for comparing Rover's ongoing results of operations and those of other companies.

Examples of the limitations of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures include:

• Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain recurring, non-cash charges, such as depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets, and although these are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, Rover's working capital needs;
• Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain restructuring and acquisition and merger-related charges, some or all of which may be settled in cash;
• Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP operating expenses exclude stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring non-cash expense in Rover's business as it grows as a company and an important part of its compensation strategy;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the components of other income (expense), net, which consists primarily of realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and realized gains and losses from the change in fair value of investments and financial instruments and sales of such investments;
• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect period-to-period changes in taxes, income tax expense or the cash necessary to pay income taxes;
• Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP general and administrative expense exclude certain legal settlements that may reduce cash available to Rover;
• these measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Rover's financial statements;
• these measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these Non-GAAP Financial Measures; and
• Rover's calculation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures may differ from similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures, if any, reported by Rover's peer companies, or those peer companies may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore Rover's use of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

To compensate for these limitations, management presents the Non-GAAP Financial Measures in conjunction with GAAP results. Rover encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure, and to view the Non-GAAP Financial Measures in conjunction with their respective related GAAP financial measures. In addition, such financial information is unaudited and does not conform to SEC Regulation S-X and as a result such information may be presented differently in Rover's future earnings releases and filings with the SEC.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not indicative of Rover's overall results, an indicator of past or future financial performance, a financial measure of total company profitability, and are not intended to be used as a proxy for total company profitability nor imply profitability for Rover's business. Also, in the future Rover may incur expenses or charges such as those being adjusted in the calculation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Rover's presentation of these Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items.

Rover defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, interest expense, interest income, change in fair value, net, other income (expense), net, income tax expense or benefit, certain acquisition and merger-related costs, gain or loss from equity method investments, and non-routine items such as investment impairment (if any), restructuring costs (if any), transaction-related expenses (if any), and certain legal settlements (if any). Adjusted EBITDA margin as presented in the reconciliation table below is Adjusted EBITDA for a period divided by revenue for the same period.

Rover defines Contribution as gross profit (loss) plus amortization of intangible assets and amortization of internally developed software, or IDS, included in cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization shown separately). Gross profit (loss) is defined as revenue less cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization shown separately) and amortization of intangible assets. Gross profit margin is calculated by dividing gross profit (loss) for a period by revenue for the same period. Contribution margin is calculated by dividing Contribution for a period by revenue for the same period.

GAAP operating expenses consist of operations and support expense, marketing expense, product and development expense, and general and administrative expense. Rover defines Non-GAAP operating expenses as GAAP operating expenses excluding the non-cash expenses arising from the grant of stock-based awards, and in the case of non-GAAP general and administrative expense, excluding certain legal settlements (if any). These non-GAAP operating expenses are also presented as a percentage of revenue, which is calculated by dividing the specific non-GAAP operating expense for a period by revenue for the same period.
