Coupa Software Reports Financial Results For the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2020

Record Quarterly Revenues of $95.1 Million, Up 54% Year-Over-Year

Quarterly Calculated Billings of $107.7 Million, Up 57% Year-Over-Year

Cumulative Spend Under Management Surpasses $1.3 Trillion

SAN MATEO, Calif., September 3, 2019 – Coupa Software (NASDAQ: COUP) today announced financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2019.

“We delivered a strong second quarter with record revenues of $95 million, up 54% year-over-year, and calculated billings of $108 million, up $57% year-over-year,” said Rob Bernshteyn, chairman and chief executive officer at Coupa. “These results demonstrate our continued momentum in delivering measurable and repeatable value to our customers. By extending our leadership standing in Business Spend Management (BSM), we feel well positioned on our path to $1 billion in revenue.”

Coupa defines calculated billings as the change in deferred revenue on the balance sheet for the period, plus revenue recognized during the period. See the section titled“Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the reconciliation tables below for important details regarding Coupa’snon-GAAP measures. Coupa defines free cash flows as operating cash flows less purchases of property and equipment.

Second Quarter Results

• Total revenues were $95.1 million, an increase of 54% compared to the same period last year. Subscription revenues were $83.5 million, an increase of 51% compared to the same period last year.

• GAAP operating loss was $22.8 million, compared to a loss of $10.6 million for the same period last year.Non-GAAP operating income was $4.8 million, compared toNon-GAAP operating income of $4.0 million for the same period last year.

• GAAP net loss was $20.0 million, compared to a net loss of $13.9 million for the same period last year. GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share was $0.32, compared to a net loss of $0.24 for the same period last year.Non-GAAP net income was $5.3 million, compared toNon-GAAP net income of $3.3 million for the same period last year.Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.07, compared toNon-GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.05 for the same period last year.

• Operating cash flows and free cash flows were positive $1.3 million and negative $2.3 million, respectively, for the quarter ended July 31, 2019.

Business Outlook:

The following forward-looking statements reflect Coupa’s expectations as of September 3, 2019.

Third quarter of fiscal 2020:

• Total revenues are expected to be between $95.5 and $96.5 million.

• Subscription revenues are expected to be between $86.0 and $87.0 million.

• Professional services and other revenues are expected to be approximately $9.5 million.

• Non-GAAP income from operations is expected to be between $3.5 and $5.5 million.

• Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to be between $0.05 and $0.08 per share.

• Diluted weighted average share count is expected to be approximately 71.7 million shares.

Full year fiscal 2020:

• Total revenues are expected to be between $369.0 and $372.0 million.

• Non-GAAP income from operations is expected to be between $10.0 and $13.0 million.

• Non-GAAP net income per diluted share is expected to be between $0.11 and $0.16 per share.

• Diluted weighted average share count is expected to be approximately 70.0 million shares.

Coupa has not reconciled its expectations fornon-GAAP income from operations to GAAP loss from operations ornon-GAAP net income per share to GAAP net loss per share because certain items excluded fromnon-GAAP income from operations andnon-GAAP net income, such as charges related to share-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs from our convertible notes, and related tax effects, includingnon-recurring income tax adjustments, cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time. In addition, the effect of the anti-dilutive impact of the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the convertible notes cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time. The effect of these items may be significant.

Recent Business Highlights:

• Welcomed many new customers into the Coupa community in Q2, including the following: Affirmed Networks, ASB Bank, Carousell, Comfortdelgro Corporation, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Las Vegas Valley Water District, Lucid Software, Lucozade Ribena Suntory,Messer-US, Pochteca Materias Primas, PSSI Group, Rakuten, Redfin, Sainsbury’s Supermarkets, SAUR Group, The Nebu Group, Tullow Oil, University of St. Augustine, Venafi, Volkswagen Group Australia, Waste Management, and Wawa.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In addition to disclosing financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this press release and the accompanying tables contain certainnon-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items, including share-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs from convertible notes, and related tax effects, includingnon-recurring income tax adjustments. In addition, the weighted average diluted shares used to calculatenon-GAAP net income per share reflect the anti-dilutive impact of the capped call transactions entered into in connection with the convertible notes. Coupa believes thesenon-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance and regularly reviews these measures as it evaluates its business.

Coupa believes thesenon-GAAP measures provide investors and other users of its financial information consistency and comparability with its past financial performance and facilitate period to period comparisons of operations. Coupa believes thesenon-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in its industry, as they generally eliminate the effects of certain items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance.

Coupa uses thesenon-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP measures as part of its overall assessment of its performance, including the preparation of its annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts, to evaluate the effectiveness of its business strategies and to communicate with its board of directors concerning its financial performance. The definitions of itsnon-GAAP measures may differ from the definitions used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. In addition, other companies may not publish these or similar metrics. Thus, Coupa’snon-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Coupa compensates for these limitations by providing investors and other users of its financial information a reconciliation ofnon-GAAP measures to the related GAAP financial measures. Coupa encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure and to view itsnon-GAAP measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures. Please see the reconciliation ofnon-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures attached to this release.

Coupa also uses key metrics such as cumulative spend under management, which represents the aggregate amount of money that has been transacted through its core platform for all of its customers collectively since it launched its platform. Coupa calculates this metric by aggregating the actual transaction data, for invoices, purchase orders and expenses, from customers on its core platform. While Coupa does not believe this metric is directly correlated to its financial results, it believes that the adoption of its core platform, as evidenced by growth in cumulative spend under management, drives additional value to its customers, which will enhance its ability to acquire new customers and to increase renewals and upsells to existing customers.

Forward-Looking Statements:

This release includes forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts, including the statements of management and statements in “Business Outlook” are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on Coupa’s current expectations and projections about future events and trends that Coupa believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, strategy, short- and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially, including Coupa has a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to predict its future operating results; if Coupa is unable to attract new customers, the growth of its revenues will be adversely affected; because its platform is sold to large enterprises with complex operating environments, Coupa encounters long and unpredictable sales cycles; risks and liabilities related to breach of its security measures or unauthorized access to customer data; the markets in which Coupa participates are intensely competitive; Coupa’s business depends substantially on its customers renewing their subscriptions and purchasing additional subscriptions; if Coupa fails to develop widespread brand awareness cost-effectively, its business may suffer; if Coupa fails to manage its recent rapid growth effectively, Coupa may be unable to execute its business plan, maintain high levels of service, or adequately address competitive challenges; and the impact of foreign currency exchange rates and global economic conditions.

These and other risks and uncertainties that could affect Coupa’s future results are included under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in Coupa’s quarterly report on Form10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 4, 2019, which is available at investors.coupa.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Further information on potential risks that could affect actual results will be included in other periodic filings Coupa makes with the SEC.

The forward-looking statements in this release reflect Coupa’s expectations as of September 3, 2019. Coupa undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this release to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in its expectations.
