Comments
"I am very pleased with our 24% subscription revenue growth and our execution in Q3, closing several of the largest deals in company history. We provide a differentiated solution that helps customers quickly, easily and securely put data to work at scale," said Josh James, Domo founder and CEO. "In Q3, we were once again able to make meaningful progress on reducing our cash burn, coming in well ahead of our guidance. Consistent with our previous statements, we remain committed to achieving cash flow positive status with the cash on our balance sheet and continue to be optimistic about the opportunity in front of us."

Recent Highlights
We believe the following points and accolades are additional indicators of what’s to come in our business through our commitment to product innovation, go-to-market initiatives and customer success:

  • Domo announced a partnership with Snowflake, which includes an API integration and co-selling initiative, to help customers more easily leverage the flexibility and scalability of the cloud. With this partnership, customers can leverage Domo's iPaaS capabilities to manage their entire data ecosystem and easily bring additional sources of data from across their organization into Snowflake.
     
  • Domo announced a new application with Square to help merchants with multiple Square accounts to easily unlock insights and gain more value from that data.
     
  • Domo was named a Leader in two G2 Crowd reports, which were based on real user feedback. In the G2 Crowd BI platforms report, Domo was named the #1 vendor, receiving high scores for ease of use, quality support and ease of doing business. Domo also was a Leader in the Enterprise BI Platforms category. Domo achieved a user satisfaction rating of 90 and 94 percent in each respective report. This is the fourth consecutive year Domo has been ranked a G2 Crowd Leader.
     
  • Domo was ranked an Overall Credibility and Experience Leader in Dresner Advisory Services' 2019 SME Business Intelligence Market Study.

Business Outlook
Based on information available as of December 5, 2019, Domo is providing the following guidance for Q4 and full year fiscal 2020:

Q4 Fiscal 2020

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $45.0 million to $46.0 million
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be between $0.94 and $0.98 based on 28.1 million weighted-average shares outstanding

Full Year Fiscal 2020

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $172.2 million to $173.2 million
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be between $3.88 and $3.92 based on 27.5 million weighted-average shares outstanding

We have not reconciled guidance for non-GAAP metrics to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because such items that impact these measures are not within our control or cannot be reasonably predicted.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we reference in this press release and the accompanying tables the following non-GAAP financial measures: billings, non-GAAP subscription gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and adjusted net cash used in operating activities. In computing these measures, we exclude the effects of certain items including stock-based compensation expense, amortization of certain intangible assets, the reversal of contingent tax-related accruals and proceeds from shares issued in connection with employee stock purchase plan. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, and our non-GAAP measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

We use these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when analyzing historical performance and liquidity and planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures, please see the tables captioned "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" included at the end of this release.
