Cash from operating activities was $5.0 million compared to $3.0 million in the same period last year.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables included in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

First Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

  • Ended the first quarter of 2017 with 2,565 customers, a 63% increase from the first quarter of 2016. Added 237 net new customers in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 180 net new customers in the first quarter of 2016.
  • Achieved a dollar-based net revenue retention rate of 133% for the first quarter of 2017.
  • Announced the pricing of our initial public offering of 9,000,000 shares of Alteryx Class A common stock at a price of $14.00 per share on March 23, 2017 for net proceeds of approximately $114.1 million after offering costs. The shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “AYX” on March 24, 2017. In addition, in April 2017, the underwriters exercised their 30-day option to purchase an additional 1,350,000 shares of Class A common stock at the initial public offering price for additional net proceeds of approximately $17.6 million.
  • We began collaborating with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to virtualize the Alteryx Server platform and offer its robust data prep, blending, and analytics solution in the cloud. Organizations can now quickly deploy Alteryx Server through AWS Marketplace as an on-demand, pay-as-you-go option. This collaboration builds on the existing integration of Alteryx with Amazon Redshift, and support for Amazon Aurora and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), empowering analysts to quickly consume big data and deliver key business insights.
  • Announced the appointment of Eileen Schloss to our Board of Directors. Eileen is a veteran executive who has worked as a human resource professional to help mentor and guide HR strategy and operations for more than 20 years.

Financial Outlook

As of May 10, 2017, guidance for the second quarter 2017 and full year 2017 is as follows:

Second Quarter 2017 Guidance:

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $29.0 million to $29.5 million.
  • Non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be in the range of $(7.5) million to $(8.0) million.
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $(0.13) to $(0.14) based on approximately 58.0 million non-GAAP weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding.

Full Year 2017 Guidance:

  • Revenue is expected to be in the range of $122.0 million to $123.5 million.
  • Non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be in the range of $(20.0) million to $(21.5) million.
  • Non-GAAP net loss per share is expected to be in the range of $(0.38) to $(0.40) based on approximately 56.0 million non-GAAP weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding.

The financial outlook above for non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude estimates for stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets, and for non-GAAP net loss per share also excludes the accretion of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis primarily as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets. In particular, stock-based compensation expense is impacted by our future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of our Class A common stock, all of which is not within our control, is difficult to predict and is subject to constant change. The actual amount of these expenses during 2017 will have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial guidance measures to the corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort.

An archived webcast of this conference call will also be available in the “Investors” section of the company’s website.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, and non-GAAP weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use non-GAAP measures to internally evaluate and analyze financial results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and enable comparison of our financial results with other public companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. We exclude the following items from one or more of our non-GAAP financial measures:

Stock-based compensation expense. We exclude stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash expense, from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, companies calculate stock-based compensation expense using a variety of valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions.

Amortization of intangible assets. We exclude amortization of intangible assets, which is a non-cash expense, related to our acquisition of a business in the first quarter of 2017 from certain of our non-GAAP financial measures. We exclude these amortization expenses because we do not believe these expenses have a direct correlation to the operation of our business.

Accretion of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock. We exclude accretion relating to our Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock from non-GAAP net loss per share because this is a non-cash item that will not recur in the periods following our initial public offering.

In addition, we adjust non-GAAP weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding to include the conversion of the redeemable convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock as though the conversion had occurred at the beginning of all periods presented as if they had been outstanding since the beginning of each of the respective periods.

Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. In particular, we exclude stock-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets which are recurring and will be reflected in our financial results for the foreseeable future. The non-GAAP measures we use may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP items excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures.
