UserTesting Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Record Second Quarter Revenue of $47.6 million, up 36% year-over-year

San Francisco, August 4, 2022, UserTesting, Inc. (NYSE: USER), a leader in video-based human insight, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“The second quarter represented our sixth consecutive quarter of year-over-year subscription growth over 40%, with record total revenue of $48 million, up 36% year-over-year,” said Andy MacMillan, CEO of UserTesting. “While we are prudently managing our expense structure in the near-term given the uncertain economic outlook, we firmly believe the mid to long-term opportunities for our business remain robust as our Human Insight Platform fundamentally helps companies better understand the driving forces behind customer behavior and delivers actionable insights to make smarter and faster business decisions.”

Financial Outlook:
The following revenue guidance reflects the Company’s demand expectations based on the current global macroeconomic outlook. In anticipation of these headwinds, the Company recently conducted a reduction in force which it expects will reduce the growth rate of operating expenses. As a result, the Company now expects improved operating leverage for the full year, despite the changing macroeconomic impact to revenue.

For the third quarter ending September 30, 2022, UserTesting currently expects:

      Total revenue between $47.5 million and $48.5 million.

      Non-GAAP operating margin between (27.0)% and (29.0)%.

  Non-GAAP net loss per share between $(0.09) and $(0.10) assuming 144.5 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

For the full year ending December 31, 2022, UserTesting currently expects:

      Total revenue between $190.0 million and $193.0 million.

      Non-GAAP operating margin between (23.0)% and (25.0)%.

      Non-GAAP net loss per share between $(0.31) and $(0.33) assuming 144.0 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

The guidance provided above are forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” section below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating loss, non-GAAP operating loss margin, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, free cash flow and free cash flow margin are non-GAAP financial measures. Additional information on UserTesting’s reported results, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP measures, is included in the financial tables below. Our definition for each non-GAAP measure used is provided below, however a limitation of non-GAAP financial measures is that they do not have uniform definitions. Accordingly, our definitions for non-GAAP measures used will likely differ from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies thereby limiting comparability. In addition, the utility of free cash flow as a measure of our liquidity is limited as it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash and cash equivalents balance for a given period.

With regards to the non-GAAP guidance provided above, a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of expenses that may be incurred in the future, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to UserTesting’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
