Financial Results for the Third Quarter 2023

  • Revenue: Total revenue was $558 million for the third quarter of 2023, up from $509 million in the third quarter of 2022, representing 10% growth. Adjusted for constant currency, total revenue rose 9%. Subscriptions revenue of $531 million increased 10% year over year and accounted for 95% of total revenue. Adjusted for constant currency, subscriptions revenue rose 10%.
  • Operating Income (Loss): GAAP operating loss was ($54) million, compared to ($183) million in the same period last year. Non-GAAP operating income was $107 million, or 19.1% of total revenue, compared to $69 million, or 13.5% of total revenue, for the third quarter of 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was $128 million, or 22.9% of total revenue, compared to $87 million, or 17.1% of total revenue, for the third quarter of 2022.
  • Net Income (Loss) Per Share: GAAP net loss per share was ($0.45), compared to ($2.98) in the same period last year. Diluted non-GAAP net income per share was $0.78, compared to $0.55 per share in the same period last year. The third quarters of 2023 and 2022 reflected an approximately 22.5% non-GAAP tax rate. There were no material cash taxes given our net operating loss carryforwards.
  • Cash and Cash Equivalents: Total cash and cash equivalents at the end of the third quarter of 2023 was $432 million. This compares to $225 million at the end of the second quarter of 2023. Our cash balance reflects the August 2023 issuance of $400 million of senior notes due 2030, with $154 million of the proceeds from this issuance subsequently used during the third quarter of 2023 to repurchase a portion of our 2025 and 2026 convertible notes. The Company also repurchased $75 million in shares during the third quarter of 2023 under the plans announced in February and May of 2023. On November 1, 2023, the company's Board of Directors authorized an incremental $100 million for the repurchase of shares.

Financial Outlook

"We are seeing early traction with our new products such as RingCX, RingSense and RingCentral Events," said Sonalee Parekh, RingCentral's CFO. "Our efficiency initiatives also continue to drive improved non-GAAP operating margins, which we are raising to 19.0%, at the high end of our prior range of 18.5% to 19.0%. We are also raising our free cash flow outlook, and now expect to generate $290 to $300 million of adjusted, unlevered free cash flow in 2023, up from our prior outlook of $270 to $290 million.”

Full Year 2023 Guidance:

  • Updating subscriptions revenue range to $2.095 to $2.101 billion, representing annual growth of 11%; raising midpoint to $2.098 billion.
  • Updating total revenue range to $2.198 to $2.205 billion, representing annual growth of 11%; raising midpoint to $2.201 billion.
  • GAAP operating margin range of (9.3%) to (8.7%) versus (8.0%) to (6.3%) previously, as we continue to streamline the organization and incur restructuring costs.
  • Raising non-GAAP operating margin range to 19.0%, up from 18.5% to 19.0% previously.
  • Non-GAAP tax rate assumed to be 22.5%. No material cash taxes expected given net operating loss carryforwards.
  • Non-GAAP EPS of $3.19 to $3.20 based on 97.0 million fully diluted shares. This compares to $3.11 to $3.25 based on 99.0 million to 98.0 fully diluted shares.
  • Share-based compensation range of $426 to $431 million.
  • Amortization of acquired intangibles of $151 million.
  • Third-party relocation and other costs, net, of $10 million.
  • Restructuring costs of $23 to $28 million.
  • Raising adjusted, unlevered free cash flow to $290 to $300 million, up from $270 to $290 million.

Fourth Quarter 2023 Guidance:

  • Subscriptions revenue range of $542.0 to $548.0 million, representing year-over-year growth of 8% to 9%.
  • Total revenue range of $566.5 to $573.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of 8% to 9%.
  • GAAP operating margin range of (8.8%) to (6.7%).
  • Non-GAAP operating margin of 20.0%.
  • Non-GAAP tax rate assumed to be 22.5%. No material cash taxes expected given net operating loss carryforwards.

  • Share-based compensation range of $105 to $110 million.
  • Amortization of acquired intangibles of $38 million.
  • Restructuring costs of $10 million to $15 million.

Additional Highlights

  • Announced in August 2023 the issuance of $400 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”) in a private offering. The 2030 Senior Notes are senior unsecured and bear interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum. We intend to use the net proceeds from the 2030 Senior Notes to repurchase a portion of our outstanding convertible senior notes and the remainder of the net proceeds, if any, for general corporate purposes.
  • Announced in August 2023 we had entered into individual, privately negotiated repurchase transactions with certain holders of our 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Notes”) and 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Convertible Notes”). We paid $154 million in cash to repurchase approximately $166 million in aggregate principal of the 2025 and 2026 Convertible Notes. The transaction was funded with proceeds from the August 2023 issuance of the 2030 Senior Notes.

For a reconciliation of our forecasted non-GAAP operating margin, see “Reconciliation of Forecasted Operating Margin GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures.” We have not reconciled our forecasted non-GAAP EPS to its respective forecasted GAAP measure because we do not provide guidance on it. We do not provide guidance on forecasted GAAP EPS because of the inherent uncertainty and complexity involved in forecasting the intercompany remeasurement gain (loss), gain (loss) associated with investments, gain (loss) on early debt conversions, and provision (benefit) from income taxes, which could be significant reconciling items between the non-GAAP and respective GAAP measures. The intercompany remeasurement gain (loss) is affected by the movement in various exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar, which is difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We do not provide guidance on gain (loss) associated with investments as it is based on future share prices, which are difficult to predict and subject to inherent uncertainties. We do not provide guidance on gain (loss) on debt early conversions as it is based on future conversion requests, future share prices, and interest rates, which are difficult to predict and are subject to inherent uncertainties. We do not provide guidance on forecasted GAAP tax rates as we do not forecast discrete tax items as they are difficult to predict. The provision (benefit) from income taxes, excluding discrete items, is expected to have an immaterial impact to our GAAP EPS. We utilized a projected long-term tax rate in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision. For fiscal 2023, we have determined the projected non-GAAP tax rate to be 22.5%. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure guidance to the corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

We have not reconciled adjusted, unlevered free cash flow guidance to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities because we do not provide guidance on the reconciling items between net cash provided by (used in) operating activities and adjusted, unlevered free cash flow due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, these items. Accordingly, a reconciliation of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities to adjusted, unlevered free cash flow guidance is not available without unreasonable effort.

Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements are: our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of our strategic relationships; our expectations regarding our strategic acquisitions, including our recently announced acquisition of select assets from Hopin; our ability to grow at our expected rate of growth; our ability to add and retain larger and enterprise customers and enter new geographies and markets; our ability to continue to release, and gain customer acceptance of, new and improved versions of our services, including RingCentral MVP™, and RingCentral Video®; our ability to compete successfully against existing and new competitors; our ability to enter into and maintain relationships with resellers, carriers, channel partners and strategic partners; our ability to successfully and timely integrate, and realize the benefits of any significant acquisition we may make; our ability to manage our expenses and growth; and general market, political, economic, and business conditions, as well as those risks and uncertainties included under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our most recent Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.

All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on information available to RingCentral as of the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, to review or confirm analysts’ expectations, or to provide interim reports or updates on the progress of the current financial quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our reported financial results and financial outlook include certain Non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP subscriptions gross margin, Non-GAAP other gross margin, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss), Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share, Non-GAAP adjusted, unlevered free cash flow, and constant currency revenue. Non-GAAP subscriptions gross margin is defined as Non-GAAP subscriptions gross profit divided by GAAP subscriptions revenue. Non-GAAP other gross margin is defined as Non-GAAP other gross profit divided by GAAP other revenue. Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations is defined as GAAP income (loss) from operations excluding share-based compensation which includes related employer payroll taxes, amortization of acquisition intangibles, asset write-down charges, third-party relocation costs tied to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other costs including acquisition-related transaction costs and retention payments, certain litigation-related costs, net impact of amended agreements with strategic partners, and restructuring costs. Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations divided by total GAAP revenue. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations excluding depreciation and amortization. Non-GAAP net income (loss) is defined as GAAP net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation which includes related employer payroll taxes, amortization of acquisition intangibles, asset write-down charges, third-party relocation costs tied to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other costs including acquisition-related transaction costs and retention payments, certain litigation-related costs, net impact of amended agreements with strategic partners, restructuring costs, non-cash interest expense associated with amortization of debt discount and issuance costs related to our long term debt, loss (gain) associated with investments, loss (gain) on early extinguishment of debt, intercompany remeasurement gains or losses, and the related income tax effect of these adjustments.

Non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding include the impact on shares used in per share calculations of our outstanding capped call transactions. Our outstanding capped call transactions are anti-dilutive in GAAP earnings per share but are expected to mitigate the dilutive effect of our convertible notes and therefore are included in the calculations of non-GAAP diluted shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP adjusted, unlevered free cash flow is defined as GAAP net cash provided by (used in) operating activities adjusted for capital expenditures including purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software, strategic partnerships, restructuring and other non-recurring payments, and cash paid for interest. We believe information regarding adjusted, unlevered free cash flow provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the strength of liquidity and available cash.

We have included Non-GAAP subscriptions gross margin, Non-GAAP other gross margin, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss), Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share, Non-GAAP adjusted, unlevered free cash flow, and constant currency revenue in this press release because they are key measures used by us to understand and evaluate our operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short and long-term operational plans. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses and cash flow items in calculating Non-GAAP subscriptions gross margin, Non-GAAP other gross margin, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss), Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share, and Non-GAAP adjusted, unlevered free cash flow provide useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business.

The Company has provided certain revenue-related information adjusted for constant currency to provide a framework for assessing how the Company's underlying business performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current period results in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the average exchange rate prevailing for the quarter being compared to for growth rate calculations presented, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during that period.

Although Non-GAAP subscriptions gross margin, Non-GAAP other gross margin, Non-GAAP operating margin, Non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP net income (loss), Non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share, Non-GAAP adjusted, unlevered free cash flow, and constant currency revenue are frequently used by investors in their evaluations of companies, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered alongside other financial performance measures.

Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release.

Other Measures

Our reported results also include our annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions, mid-market and enterprise annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions, enterprise annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions, and net monthly subscription dollar retention rate. We define our annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions as our monthly recurring subscriptions multiplied by 12. Our monthly recurring subscriptions equal the monthly value of all customer recurring charges contracted at the end of a given month. We believe this metric is a leading indicator of our anticipated subscriptions revenue. We calculate mid-market and enterprise annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions in the same manner as we calculate our annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions, except that only customer subscriptions from customers generating $25,000 or more in annual recurring revenue are included. We calculate enterprise annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions in the same manner as we calculate our annualized exit monthly recurring subscriptions, except that only customer subscriptions from customers generating $100,000 or more in annual recurring revenue are included. We define our net monthly subscription dollar retention rate as (i) one plus (ii) the quotient of dollar net change divided by average monthly recurring subscriptions. We calculate dollar net change as the quotient of (i) the difference of our monthly recurring subscriptions at the end of a period minus our monthly recurring subscriptions at the beginning of a period minus our monthly recurring subscriptions at the end of the period from new customers we added during the period, (ii) all divided by the number of months in the period. We define our average monthly recurring subscriptions as the average of the monthly recurring subscriptions at the beginning and end of the measurement period.
