Vivint Smart Home Announces Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue grew by 17% as the company added over 121,000 new subscribers, an all-time record for the second quarter

Attrition declined by 210 basis points year over year to a 12-quarter low of 11.6%

PROVO, Utah--()--Vivint Smart Home, Inc. (NYSE: VVNT), a leading smart home company, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

It’s great to be back at Vivint Smart Home,” said David Bywater, CEO of Vivint. “I know the company, culture, and industry extremely well, having spent three years previously as the company’s chief operating officer before spending the last five years as the CEO of our former sister company, Vivint Solar. I am very pleased with the significant progress the Vivint Smart Home team has made during my absence in growing the subscriber base, improving the depth and quality of the product portfolio, and driving tremendous improvements in the unit economics and cash flow dynamics of the business.”

Second Quarter 2021 Highlights (vs. prior year period)

  • New Subscribers grew by 12.6% to 121,599, a record high for the second quarter period
  • Revenue increased by $51.3 million to $355.2 million, representing growth of 16.9%
  • Net loss improved by $82.7 million to $74.1 million, decreasing by 52.7% vs. Q2 2020 and 36.1% vs. Q2 2019
  • Adjusted EBITDAa increased by $5.4 million to $156.0 million, up 3.6% vs. Q2 2020 and up 76.7% vs. Q2 2019
  • Attrition rate improved to 11.6%, the lowest rate in 12 quarters
  • Net Subscriber Acquisition Costs per New Subscriber declined to $70, down 88.9%
  • Net Service Costs per Subscriber came in at $10.03, representing a service margin of 79%
  • Cash on hand was $345.2 million and the company’s liquidity position was $660.7 million as of quarter end
  • Net leverage ratio (net debt to LTM Covenant Adjusted EBITDA) improved to 2.9x as of quarter end

Other Recent Highlights

  • Appointed David Bywater as CEO – seasoned executive with 25 years of leadership experience across consumer-facing technology companies
  • Announced strategic partnership with Freedom Forever, one of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing solar installers, that moves Vivint one step closer to a fully integrated smart home and energy offering
  • Successfully completed global debt refinancing that will reduce annual cash interest costs by approximately $50 million

Full Year Outlook

We reported solid performance in the second quarter, delivering 17 percent revenue growth year over year, which was more than double the growth rate of the prior year period,” said Dale R. Gerard, CFO of Vivint. “We added nearly 122,000 new smart home subscribers, which represented a 13 percent increase, all while producing an adjusted EBITDA margin of over 43 percent. Our key portfolio indicators remain very healthy overall, with attrition sitting at a 12-quarter low. These results keep us on pace to meet our growth objectives for the full year, and we are once again reaffirming our original guidance for the year.”

For the full year 2021, Vivint currently expects:

  • Total subscribers of 1.80 – 1.85 million
  • Revenue of $1.38 – $1.42 billion
  • Adjusted EBITDAa of $640 – $655 million

a) This earnings release includes Adjusted EBITDA and Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, metrics that are not calculated in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (GAAP). Covenant Adjusted EBITDA provides additional information to investors about the calculation of, and compliance with, certain financial covenants contained in the agreements governing the Company’s notes, and the credit agreements governing the Company’s revolving credit facility and term loan. See the Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures section at the end of this earnings release for the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliations to their most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and uncertainty with respect to forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including Net Loss and adjustments that could be made for impairment charges, restructuring charges and the timing and magnitude of other amounts included in the reconciliation. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Certain Definitions

Total Subscribers - is the aggregate number of active smart home and security subscribers at the end of a given period.

Total Monthly Recurring Revenue - or Total MRR, is the average total monthly recurring revenue recognized during a given period.

Average Monthly Recurring Revenue per User - or AMRRU, is Total MRR divided by average monthly Total Subscribers during a given period.

Total Monthly Service Revenue - or MSR, is the contracted recurring monthly service billings to our smart home and security subscribers, based on the Total Subscribers number as of the end of a given period.

Average Monthly Service Revenue per User - or AMSRU, is Total MSR divided by Total Subscribers at the end of a given period.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin - is Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA Margin - is Covenant Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue.

Net Loss Margin - is Net Loss as a percent of revenue.

Attrition Rate - is the aggregate number of canceled smart home and security subscribers during the prior 12-month period divided by the monthly weighted average number of Total Subscribers based on the Total Subscribers at the beginning and end of each month of a given period. Subscribers are considered canceled when they terminate in accordance with the terms of their contract, are terminated by us or if payment from such subscribers is deemed uncollectible (when at least four monthly billings become past due). If a sale of a service contract to third parties occurs, or a subscriber relocates but continues their service, we do not consider this as a cancellation. If a subscriber transfers their service contract to a new subscriber, we do not consider this a cancellation.

Average Subscriber Lifetime - in number of months, is 100% divided by our expected long-term annualized attrition rate (which is currently estimated at 13%) multiplied by 12 months.

Net Service Cost per Subscriber - is the average monthly service costs incurred during the period (both period and capitalized service costs), including monitoring, customer service, field service and other service support costs, less total non-recurring smart home services billings and cellular network maintenance fees for the period, divided by average monthly Total Subscribers for the same period.

Net Service Margin - is the monthly average MSR for the period, less total average net service costs for the period divided by the monthly average MSR for the period.

New Subscribers - is the aggregate number of net new smart home and security subscribers originated during a given period. This metric excludes new subscribers acquired by the transfer of a service contract from one subscriber to another.

Net Subscriber Acquisition Costs per New Subscriber - is the net cash cost to create new smart home and security subscribers during a given 12-month period divided by New Subscribers for that period. These costs include commissions, Products, installation, marketing, sales support and other allocations (general and administrative and overhead); less upfront payments received from the sale of Products associated with the initial installation, and installation fees. Upfront payments reflect gross proceeds prior to deducting fees related to consumer financing of Products. These costs exclude capitalized contract costs and upfront proceeds associated with contract modifications.

Total Monthly Service Revenue for New Subscribers - is the contracted recurring monthly service billings to our New Subscribers during the prior 12-month period.

Lifetime Service Margin per New Subscriber - is Total Monthly Service Revenue/Total service RPU for New Subscribers less Net Service Cost per Subscriber multiplied by Average Subscriber Lifetime

LTV / Net SAC - is the Lifetime Service Margin per New Subscriber plus RIC equipment revenue per new subscriber, divided by Net Subscriber Acquisition Costs per New Subscriber including financing costs

Average Monthly Service Revenue per New Subscriber - is the Total Monthly Service Revenue for New Subscribers divided by New Subscribers during the prior 12-month period.

Statement Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation (or non-cash compensation), certain financing fees, changes in the fair value of the derivative liability associated with our public and private warrants and certain other non-recurring expenses or gains.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue.

During the first quarter of 2021, in connection with our re-assessment of our accounting for our public and private warrants, we updated our definition of “Adjusted EBITDA” to exclude the impact of changes in the fair value of the derivative liability associated with our public and private warrants. We do not consider changes in the fair value of the warrants to be directly attributable to our operations and we believe that excluding the impact of changes in the fair value of the warrants from our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA results in a metric that better reflects the results of our operations. Prior period disclosures of Adjusted EBITDA were updated to conform to our updated definition of Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and is subject to important limitations. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts used by other companies.

Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies in industries similar to ours. In addition, targets based on Adjusted EBITDA are among the measures we use to evaluate our management’s performance for purposes of determining their compensation under our incentive plans.

Adjusted EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense (net of interest income), income and franchise taxes and depreciation and amortization (including amortization of capitalized subscriber acquisition costs), further adjusted to exclude the effects of certain contract sales to third parties, non-capitalized subscriber acquisition costs, stock-based compensation, changes in the fair value of the derivative liability associated with our public and private warrants and certain unusual, non-cash, non-recurring and other items permitted in certain covenant calculations under the agreements governing our Notes, the credit agreement governing the 2025 Term Loan B and the credit agreement governing our revolving credit facility.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Covenant Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of revenue.

We believe that the presentation of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate to provide additional information to investors about the calculation of, and compliance with, certain financial covenants contained in the agreements governing the Notes, the credit agreements governing the revolving credit facility and the 2025 Term Loan B. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definition of Covenant Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because not all issuers and analysts calculate Covenant Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

See the following tables for quantitative reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Covenant Adjusted EBITDA for historical periods to Net Loss, which we believe is the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP.
