    NEW YORK, Aug. 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Varonis Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNS), a pioneer in data security and analytics, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

    "Highlighted by 30% ARR growth, our second quarter results again demonstrate the strength of the Varonis Data Security Platform and the durability of our business model, as we delivered both strong topline growth and operating leverage," said Yaki Faitelson, Varonis CEO. "Given the uncertainty of the times, companies around the world continue to recognize the growing urgency to secure their sensitive data."

    "We are meaningfully raising our full-year operating income expectations and reaffirming our full-year financial guidance for both ARR and revenues," Mr. Faitelson continued. "Going forward, we are well positioned to deliver against the vast, long-term opportunity we see."

    An explanation of ARR is included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators."

    Financial Outlook
    The Company is again reaffirming its original full-year guidance for ARR and revenue, and increasing its full-year guidance for non-GAAP operating income, despite the below headwinds:

    1. the significant strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro and the Pound during the first half of 2022, a trend which accelerated in the second quarter;
    2. the exit of its Russia business, which will impact the Company's full-year revenue and ARR guidance by approximately $4 million to $5 million dollars; and
    3. the Company's exposure to the New Israeli Shekel, which the Company has partially mitigated through its hedging program for 2022. For both the third quarter of 2022 and full-year 2022, this headwind is expected to be 200 basis points.

    For the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects:

    • Revenues of $123.0 million to $125.5 million, or year-over-year growth of 23% to 25%.
    • Non-GAAP operating income of $8.5 million to $10.0 million.
    • Non-GAAP net income per diluted share in the range of $0.05 to $0.06, based on 127.1 million diluted shares outstanding.

    For full year 2022, the Company expects:

    • ARR of $484.0 million to $489.0 million, or year-over-year growth of 25% to 26%.
    • Revenues of $485.0 million to $490.0 million, or year-over-year growth of 24% to 26%.
    • Non-GAAP operating income of $32.5 million to $36.5 million.
    • Non-GAAP net income per diluted share in the range of $0.19 to $0.22, based on 126.9 million diluted shares outstanding.

    Actual results may differ materially from the Company’s Financial Outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described below under “Forward-Looking Statements”.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators
    Varonis believes that the use of non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) is helpful to our investors. These measures, which the Company refers to as our non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP.

    Non-GAAP operating income (loss) is calculated as operating income (loss) excluding (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, and (iii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses.

    Non-GAAP net income (loss) is calculated as net income (loss) excluding (i) stock-based compensation expense, (ii) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation, (iii) amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition-related expenses, (iv) foreign exchange gains (losses) which includes exchange rate differences on lease contracts as a result of the implementation of ASC 842 and (v) amortization of debt discount and issuance costs.

    The Company believes that the exclusion of these expenses provides a more meaningful comparison of our operational performance from period to period and offers investors and management greater visibility to the underlying performance of our business. Specifically:

    • Stock-based compensation expenses utilize varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and a variety of equity instruments that can impact a company's non-cash expenses;
    • Payroll taxes are tied to the exercise or vesting of underlying equity awards and the price of our common stock at the time of vesting or exercise, factors which may vary from period to period;
    • Acquired intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over an estimated useful life after the acquisition, and acquisition-related expenses are unrelated to current operations and neither are comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results;
    • The Company incurs foreign exchange gains or losses from the revaluation of its significant operating lease liabilities in foreign currencies as well as other assets and liabilities denominated in non-U.S. dollars, which may vary from period to period; and
    • Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs, which relate to the Company’s convertible senior notes issued in 2020, is a non-cash item.

    Each of our non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial measures do not represent our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss) or net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Further, stock-based compensation expense and payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses in our business and an important part of the compensation provided to our employees. Also, the amortization of intangible assets are expected recurring expenses over the estimated useful life of the underlying intangible asset and acquisition-related expenses will be incurred to the extent acquisitions are made in the future. Additionally, foreign exchange rates may fluctuate from one period to another, and the Company does not estimate movements in foreign currencies. Finally, the amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs are expected recurring expenses until the maturity of the senior notes in 2025.

    The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Varonis urges investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measures to evaluate our business.

    A reconciliation for non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) referred to in our “Financial Outlook” is not provided because, as forward-looking statements, such reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort due to the high variability, complexity, and difficulty of estimating certain items such as charges to stock-based compensation expense and currency fluctuations which could have an impact on our consolidated results. The Company believes the information provided is useful to investors because it can be considered in the context of the Company’s historical disclosures of this measure.

    ARR is a key performance indicator defined as the annualized value of active term-based subscription license contracts and maintenance contracts related to perpetual licenses in effect at the end of that period. Subscription license contracts and maintenance for perpetual license contracts are annualized by dividing the total contract value by the number of days in the term and multiplying the result by 365. The annualized value of contracts is a legal and contractual determination made by assessing the contractual terms with our customers. The annualized value of maintenance contracts is not determined by reference to historical revenues, deferred revenues or any other GAAP financial measure over any period. ARR is not a forecast of future revenues, which can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal rates.

    Constant Currency and Russia Impacts
    In addition to reported growth rates prepared in accordance with GAAP, the Company is presenting growth rates this quarter that adjust for the impact of foreign currency rate (“FX”) fluctuations, as well as for the impact of exiting its Russia business in the first quarter of 2022. To adjust for FX, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the average exchange rates from the comparative period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods. To adjust for Russia, the Company has removed Russia’s financial contribution from the comparable prior-year period. The Company has provided this financial information to aid investors in better understanding our underlying performance. The financial measures presented in this release should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
