Financial Outlook
Sprinklr is providing the following guidance for the second fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2023:
•Subscription revenue between $158 million and $160 million.
•Total revenue between $172 million and $174 million.
•Non-GAAP operating income between $11 million and $13 million.
•Non-GAAP net income per share between $0.04 and $0.05, assuming 270 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

Sprinklr is providing the following guidance for the full fiscal year ending January 31, 2024:
•Subscription revenue between $649 million and $653 million.
•Total revenue between $711 million and $715 million.
•Non-GAAP operating income between $51 million and $55 million.
•Non-GAAP net income per share between $0.19 and $0.21, assuming 273 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures:
•Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin
•Non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating margin
•Non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share
We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective GAAP measures, excluding, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense-related charges and amortization of acquired intangible assets. We believe that it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation expense-related charges and amortization of acquired intangible assets in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies over multiple periods. In periods of net loss, we calculate non-GAAP net income (loss) per share by using non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by basic weighted average shares for the period regardless of whether we are in a non-GAAP net income or (loss) position and assuming that all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive.
In addition, the press release and the accompanying tables contain free cash flow which is defined as net cash used in operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software, and adjusted free cash flow, which is defined as free cash flow plus cash adjusted for litigation settlement costs. We believe that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are useful indicators of liquidity as they measure our ability to generate cash, or our need to access additional sources of cash, to fund operations and investments.
However, non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in their usefulness to investors because they have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. As a result, our non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP.
Sprinklr has not reconciled its expectations as to non-GAAP operating loss, or as to non-GAAP net loss per share, to their most directly comparable GAAP measures as a result of the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures; in particular, the measures and effects of stock-based compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our stock price. We expect the variability of the above charges to have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP financial results. Accordingly, reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to Sprinklr’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.
