Revenue of $19.9 million increases 31% year-over-year

BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 2, 2016-- Everbridge, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVBG), a global software company that provides critical communications and enterprise safety applications to help keep people safe and businesses running, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

“We delivered a strong financial performance in our first quarter as a public company, as our software as a service platform for critical communications and safety applications continued to build momentum in the marketplace,” said Jaime Ellertson, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Everbridge. “Our growth in the quarter was driven by the expanding adoption of our core mass notification solutions with new and existing customers, as well as by the rapid adoption of our new applications which expand our addressable market opportunity.”

Ellertson continued, “As we look ahead, we believe the strength of our platform, marquee customers and continued innovation position us to further extend our market leadership and accomplish our long-term objectives. We believe our increasing traction and continued investments will provide us with the opportunity to capture a significant share of the growing market in front of us as we expand our reach in an underpenetrated market, and scale toward our long-term goal of continued and profitable growth.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP cost of revenue, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP sales and marketing, non-GAAP research and development, non-GAAP general and administrative, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss), non-GAAP net income/(loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow.

We believe that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to Everbridge's financial condition and results of operations. We use these non-GAAP measures for financial, operational and budgetary decision-making purposes, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, and to generate future operating plans. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information regarding past financial performance and future prospects, and permit us to more thoroughly analyze key financial metrics used to make operational decisions. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other software companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

We do not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures, which are included in this press release, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
