Steven
G. Mihaylo, Chief Executive Officer commented, “I continue to be very excited
about the progress we are making and the direction we are headed.
While I would have preferred to continue our streak of
profitability, we fully expected to operate at a loss this quarter
due to the expenses associated with the NetSapiens merger. There
were some very good markers for us this quarter, UCaaS service
revenue for the first quarter of 2021 increased 21% compared to the
first quarter of 2020 and consolidated service revenue increased
19% year-over-year. These are very important and promising trends.
It was also a transformational quarter for us with the signing of
the merger agreement with NetSapiens. Our proxy is out to our
shareholders and we should be able to close the NetSapiens merger
hopefully by the end of this month. As I have said before, we will
continue to grow the business both organically and through
acquisitions, this quarter is a testament to our commitment to our
plan.”
Mihaylo
added, “I am very excited that we will shortly be rolling out
the NetSapiens platform to our Crexendo customers. I am convinced
that the NetSapiens video collaboration solutions and mobility
solutions used for teleconferencing and telecommuting, are the best
in the industry. In the new work from anywhere world, this will be
a substantial benefit to the Crexendo customers. NetSapiens was
recently spotlighted in Frost & Sullivan’s UCaaS (Unified
Communications as a Service) report as the third-party platform
vendor with the fastest growth rate in the North American market,
and the report ranks NetSapiens at number 4 in UCaaS seats in the
North American market. Our combined company pro forma consolidated
revenue for 2020 of $27.8 million nearly a 20% increase compared to
$23.3 million for 2019, this strong growth demonstrates why this
merger is a benefit for our shareholders. Additionally, the
NetSapiens community will benefit from our combined years of
experience which will be very helpful in continuing to improve the
offerings of both organizations. We will, as a joint team, continue
to operate the business effectively and efficiently. We carefully
monitor how we spend shareholder money, but we will do what is
necessary to make our soon to be combined company the best in the
industry. I could not be more excited about our
future.”
Doug
Gaylor, President and Chief Operating Officer, stated, “I am
thrilled about our merger with NetSapiens! Our management teams
continue to work together closely, and we will hit the ground
running after the merger is completed. Our combined synergies,
offerings and experiences will prove to be a substantial benefit to
all of our customers and our shareholders. The combination of the
talented resources from both organizations will make us a better
and more complete Company to support over 1.7 million users. I
share Steve’s enthusiasm and look forward to the
future.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To
evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted
accounting principles (“Non-GAAP”) net income and
Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance.
These measures include the same adjustments that management takes
into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on
a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income to be an
important indicator of overall business performance because it
allows us to evaluate results without the effects of share-based
compensation, acquisition related expenses and amortization of
intangibles. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income/(loss) before
interest income, interest expense, other income and expense,
provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We
believe EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us
with other companies within our industry and across industries. We
define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for acquisition related
expenses and share-based compensation. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a
supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We
also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors’
use of operating performance comparisons from period to period, as
well as across companies.
In our
May 11, 2021 earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we
included Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms
Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined
under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income,
operating performance or liquidity presented in analytical tools,
and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net income,
EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation,
or as a substitute for net income/(loss) or other consolidated
income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some
of these limitations include, but are not limited to:
●
EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements
for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
●
they do not reflect
changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital
needs;
●
they do not reflect
the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service
interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may
incur;
●
they do not reflect
income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax
payments;
●
although
depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets
being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the
future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash
requirements for such replacements;
●
while share-based
compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our
financial statements compared to other companies can vary
significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the
options and the assumed volatility of our common stock;
and
●
other companies may
calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do,
limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
We
compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S.
GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA, and Adjusted
EBITDA only as supplemental support for management’s analysis
of business performance. Non-GAAP net income, EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods
presented.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In
accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC,
we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial
measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics
to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.
