Business Highlights:

  • Corporate Highlights: In Q3, BigCommerce continued its international expansion with the addition of Austria, Denmark, Norway and Sweden. We successfully completed SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance audits and obtained corresponding attestation reports, demonstrating commitment to protecting our customers’ sensitive and valuable information. These certifications are very important to enterprise merchants and will ultimately allow us to compete in more deals. We also hired Rosie Rivel to be the company’s first CIO, leading BigCommerce’s business applications and information technology teams with the objective of transforming internal technology systems to improve productivity, efficiency and effectiveness to the benefit of the company’s customers, employees and investors.
  • Product Highlights: BigCommerce continues to release features and product enhancements that resonate with our target market of enterprise customers. In Q3, we launched the closed beta of multi-location inventory, and at the end of 2022, we’re on track to launch a set of new and updated APIs that enable merchants to create custom buy online pick up in store experiences. As shoppers increasingly demand flexible, fast, and convenient fulfillment options, these APIs are foundational for enabling large enterprise merchants to create the complex multi-location inventory scenarios that they need to meet customer expectations. Our customer segmentation feature is in open beta, as well as our app extension feature, which allows third parties to deeply integrate into the control panel experience.
  • Merchant Highlights: IAG Loyalty, the loyalty program for British Airways and other airlines, launched The Wine Flyer, a new online store leveraging BigCommerce’s Open SaaS, API-first platform, where the millions of members of the British Airways Executive Club can exchange loyalty points for wine and earn loyalty points by making purchases. One Kings Lane, a US-based seller of designer, vintage, and exclusive home furnishings, launched a beautiful custom headless site, taking advantage of our integrations with Avalara, Braintree and Cybersource. Music Direct, the world’s largest online retailer for high-end audio equipment, music and accessories, is now selling on BigCommerce with a custom order flow built on a custom Azure environment that is seamlessly integrated with the ERP. Hungry Harvest, which nobly reduces food waste by selling rescued produce that otherwise would have been discarded due to surplus, supplier over-purchasing or physical deformity, took advantage of our Multi-Storefront functionality to launch two stores – one for their customers’ on-demand purchases and another for its subscribers. MKM Building Supply, a prominent UK-based hardware and commercial building supply company, launched a new headless store that allows them to have more flexibility and an improved website design. Jimmy Brings, one of Australia’s largest express alcohol delivery services, launched a progressive web app storefront built on BigCommerce’s headless architecture that takes advantage of our Australia-based hosting offering to minimize the potential for disruptions. And last but not least, Dippin’ Dots, the frozen treat brand, launched a new storefront that combines a fun and engaging customer experience with checkout functionality that ensures its temperature-sensitive products are delivered when the buyer wants them to be.
  • Partner Highlights: BigCommerce announced a strategic partnership with cryptocurrency leaders BitPay and CoinPayments to easily and securely deliver cryptocurrency payment solutions to BigCommerce merchants, opening up opportunities for merchants to offer more payment options, broaden market share, tap into new customer bases and accelerate international growth through innovation. In August, we announced an expanded partnership with Affirm, enabling merchants of all sizes to be able to use Affirm’s Adaptive Checkout and provide eligible customers with the flexibility and control to choose which payment schedule works best for them. Earlier this week, we announced the launch of Snapchat for BigCommerce in partnership with Snap, Inc. This gives BigCommerce merchants of all sizes the ability to easily create, manage and optimize Snapchat ad campaigns to showcase products and broaden audience reach to millions of Snapchat users. In August and September, we held a series of three Partner Summits, one each for our Americas, EMEA and APAC regions, where we celebrated our joint success and progress and shared our roadmap and priorities for the future. During these summits, we announced the launch of our new Omnichannel Certified Partner Program. Today’s merchants know they need to meet their customers where they shop and spend their time online, but they often struggle to determine the best combination of channels for their business. This program solves that, and we’re doing it in a very BigCommerce way – by leveraging our strong partner relationships with both agency and tech partners. Our agency partners benefit from improved product data and listings and feed optimization with Feedonomics, omnichannel growth consultations with BigCommerce experts, and access to exclusive channel partner alpha and beta programs, including Amazon Buy with Prime, Google, Mercado Libre, Meta, Snap, Target+ and Walmart Marketplace, among others, in select regions. We’re already seeing substantial demand to join this program.

Q4 and 2022 Financial Outlook:
For the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company currently expects:

  • Total revenue between $72.4 million to $74.2 million, implying an organic year-over-year growth rate of 12% to 14% with revenue from Feedonomics in the base period.
  • Non-GAAP operating loss is expected to be between $12.3 million to $14.3 million.
    For the full year 2022, the Company currently expects:
  • Total revenue between $279.1 million and $280.9 million, translating into a year-over-year growth rate of 27% and 28%.
  • Non-GAAP operating loss between $49.9 million and $51.9 million.

The Company’s fourth quarter and 2022 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the Company’s control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company’s expectations may change. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.

The Company does not provide guidance for operating loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Non-GAAP operating loss, and similarly cannot provide a reconciliation between its forecasted Non-GAAP operating loss and Non-GAAP net loss per share and these comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain items. These items are not within the Company’s control and may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.

These assumptions, uncertainties and risks include that, among others, our business would be harmed by any decline in new customers, renewals or upgrades, our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects and future results of operations, we operate in competitive markets, we may not be able to sustain our revenue growth rate in the future, our business would be harmed by any significant interruptions, delays or outages in services from our platform or certain social media platforms, and a cybersecurity-related attack, significant data breach or disruption of the information technology systems or networks could negatively affect our business. Additional risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements are included under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on August 8, 2022, and the future quarterly and current reports that we file with the SEC.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have provided in this press release certain financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Our management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believes that use of these Non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar Non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of our historical Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations.

Annual Revenue Run-Rate (ARR)

We calculate annual revenue run-rate (“ARR”) at the end of each month as the sum of: (1) contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue, and (2) the sum of the trailing twelve-month non-recurring and variable revenue, which includes one-time partner integrations, one-time fees, payments revenue share, and any other revenue that is non-recurring and variable.

Subscription ARR

We calculate subscription annual revenue run-rate (“ARR”) at the end of each month as contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue.

Enterprise Account Metrics

To measure the effectiveness of our ability to execute against our growth strategy, particularly within the mid-market and enterprise business segments, we calculate ARR attributable to Enterprise Accounts. We define Enterprise Accounts as accounts with at least one unique Enterprise plan subscription or an enterprise level feed management subscription (collectively “Enterprise Accounts”). These accounts may have more than one Enterprise plan or a combination of Enterprise plans and Essentials plans.

Average Revenue Per Account

We calculate average revenue per account (ARPA) for accounts above the ACV threshold at the end of a period by including customer-billed revenue and an allocation of partner and services revenue, where applicable. We allocate partner revenue, where applicable, primarily based on each customer’s share of GMV processed through that partner’s solution. For partner revenue that is not directly linked to customer usage of a partner’s solution, we allocate such revenue based on each customer’s share of total platform GMV. Each account’s partner revenue allocation is calculated by taking the account’s trailing twelve-month partner revenue, then dividing by twelve to create a monthly average to apply to the applicable period in order to normalize ARPA for seasonality.

Adjusted EBITDA

We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax expense, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, depreciation and amortization expense, interest income, interest expense, changes in fair value of financial instruments, and our provision for income taxes. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss.

Non-GAAP Operating Loss

We define Non-GAAP Operating Loss as our GAAP Loss from operations, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax expense, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our loss from operations.

Non-GAAP Net Loss

We define Non-GAAP Net Loss as our GAAP net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax expense, third party acquisition-related costs, and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and changes in fair value of financial instruments. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our net loss.

Non-GAAP Net Loss per Share

We define Non-GAAP Net Loss per Share as our Non-GAAP Net Loss, defined above, divided by our basic and diluted GAAP weighted average shares outstanding. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our net loss per share.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash flow as our GAAP cash flow from operating activities plus our GAAP purchases of property and equipment (Capital Expenditures). The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our cash flow from operating activities.
