First Quarter 2023 Product Innovation Highlights:

We innovate aligned with our guiding principles. VTEX key innovations deployed this quarter:

  • Zero friction onboarding and collaboration:
    • Samsung improved its ecommerce operation in Brazil by implementing a data observability operation using VTEX IO. The project included various solutions such as custom control dashboards, pixel app templates, order feed and order hook, and an alarm mechanism via Telegram. As a result, Samsung achieved a more proactive operation, faster response times, and better delivery quality, among other benefits.
    • Cia. Hering, a major Brazilian fashion group with over 800 physical stores that migrated to VTEX in just three months, is already increasing their average order value by 30% and decreasing their abandoned carts by 40%. The replatforming process helped the company achieve a fully customizable storefront, faster page loading times, an improved checkout experience, and integrated its physical and digital channels for a smooth omnichannel operation.
    • Claro, a leading telecommunications company in Latin America, chose VTEX's composable architecture as their digital commerce platform in Peru to simplify their current architecture and achieve a fast time-to-market. With our out-of-the-box features, Claro was able to solve their business requirements, including marketplaces.
    • Divvino, one of Brazil's largest online wine platforms, selected VTEX to improve their front-end capabilities and ensure a frictionless migration for their subscribers. As a result, Divvino now has an internal marketplace and has increased their revenue lines by selling new products such as wine accessories.
    • Banco Provincia, a public bank in Argentina, chose VTEX due to its ability to handle complex architecture requirements and previous experience with similar clients. With VTEX's help, Banco Provincia launched its successful platform with a daily record of 10,986 orders. They plan to expand their product catalog and double the number of sellers with VTEX's assistance.
    • A high aesthetic wear brand operating in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, chose VTEX for our headless implementation capabilities and flexibility to culture-specific product requirements. With our platform, they now have a catalog that enables multi-language product translations and the Checkout.com payment tool, which provides a better customer experience for their users.
  • Single control panel for every order
    • Vital Mayorista, a large wholesale supermarket brand in Argentina, customized their checkout with different payment options with VTEX. Furthermore, the customer incorporated a shopping cart rule feature during the checkout process, enabling the implementation of purchasing rules for approving, canceling, or modifying online orders. This has assisted their consumers in adhering to the requirements necessary for completing the purchase, leading to an increase in conversion rates. With this key improvement, Vital has increased their orders by more than 140%.
    • Oba Hortifruti, a grocery chain with more than 70 stores and 2 distribution centers in Brazil, chose VTEX's omnichannel strategy to leverage sales opportunities. With our features such as shipping from store and pick up in store, Oba improved their logistics and customized their website's user experience.
  • Commerce on auto-pilot and co-pilot
    • Launched our improved conversational commerce tool with an automated onboarding flow, enabling customers to create and customize their WhatsApp accounts independently. This reduces the onboarding time from 20 to 5 business days, increasing the time to revenue for our customers.
    • Launched the Offer Quality Filter configuration to provide marketplaces with greater control over the approval criteria for seller offers. This feature empowers our marketplace customers to establish rules that automatically reject offers from sellers that do not meet their business standards, allowing for a clear view of their go-to-market strategies. Furthermore, our customers can specify the application of filters for specific sellers, categories, and brands.
  • The development platform of choice for digital commerce
    • Extended our native integration between VTEX stores and Amazon by incorporating support for Amazon's FBA Classic (Fulfillment by Amazon) and DBA (Delivery by Amazon) logistics programs. This new feature enables users to import orders from FBA Classic or DBA, providing a single place to view and manage orders. Moreover, the integration delivers a more comprehensive user experience in the VTEX Admin and streamlines operational work related to order management.
    • Jeffers Pet, an online pet retailer in the USA that operates in B2C and B2B models, chose VTEX to strengthen their customer experience and increase sales using our Live Shopping feature. Our customer has experienced a significant increase in their conversion rates during live events, doubling their average sales volume during these sessions.

Business Outlook

The integration of ecommerce to leverage existing physical stores has become a crucial aspect of the business strategy for enterprise brands and retailers. Consumers now expect a seamless shopping experience, whether they're browsing online or in-store. Omnichannel has gone from being a desirable feature to a vital tool for engaging with consumers in a consistent and relevant manner.

However, the global macroeconomic environment has imposed challenges to retailers and ecommerce players. The increase in interest rates and labor costs has impacted consumption and put pressure on margins. Despite these challenges, our company has not seen a significant deterioration in our most relevant long-term performance metrics. This is a testament to the resilience of our business model and our ability to adapt to changing market conditions.

As a result of the aforementioned, we have reflected the extended sales cycle resulting from the increased implementation time of the VTEX platform and longer ramp-up periods for new customers into our projections for this year. We haven’t seen further deterioration of such cycles in the current quarter, however the macroeconomic scenario for the full year remains uncertain. We are closely monitoring the performance of our customers and sales funnel and taking necessary actions to ensure our business's continued growth and success.

In this context, we are currently targeting revenue for the second quarter of 2023 in the US$45.0 million to US$45.8 million range, implying a YoY growth of 19% on an FX neutral basis in the middle of the range.

For the full year 2023, we expect FX neutral YoY revenue growth of 16% to 19%, implying a range of US$185 million to US$190 million, based on year to date average FX rates.

As we continue executing on our strategy for profitable growth, we anticipate a substantial YoY expansion in our non-GAAP operating income margin in the second quarter of 2023, followed by incremental lighter improvements in the second half of the year.

We are confident in VTEX's ability to navigate the uncertainties posed by the current macroeconomic scenario. We are empowering our customers to digitally transform their commerce operations while helping them to outperform the market.

The business outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond VTEX’s control. See the cautionary note regarding ''Forward-Looking Statements'' below. Fluctuations in VTEX’s operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment. There can not be an assurance that VTEX will achieve these results.
