Ooma Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

March 5, 2024

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 5, 2024-- Ooma, Inc. (NYSE: OOMA), a smart communications platform for businesses and consumers, today released financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended January 31, 2024.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue: Total revenue was $61.7 million, up 9% year-over-year. Subscription and services revenue increased to $58.0 million from $52.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, and was 94% of total revenue, primarily driven by the growth of Ooma Business and the acquisition of 2600hz, Inc. (“2600Hz”).
  • Net Income/Loss: GAAP net loss was $3.1 million, or $0.12 per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $0.4 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Non-GAAP net income was $3.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $4.1 million, or $0.16 per diluted share in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA was $5.2 million, compared to $5.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.

Full Year Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue: Total revenue was $236.7 million, up 10% year-over-year. Subscription and services revenue increased to $221.6 million from $199.1 million in fiscal 2023, and was 94% of total revenue, primarily driven by the growth of Ooma Business and the acquisition of 2600Hz.
  • Net Income/Loss: GAAP net loss was $0.8 million, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, compared to GAAP net loss of $3.7 million, or $0.15 per basic and diluted share, in fiscal 2023. GAAP net loss for fiscal 2024 includes tax benefit for the release of a $3.1 million valuation allowance resulting from the recording of certain intangible assets associated with the acquisition of 2600Hz in late October 2023, as well as a $1.0 million gain on consolidation of facility costs, partially offset by $0.7 million in acquisition-related costs and $0.5 million of certain restructuring costs. Non-GAAP net income was $15.4 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $13.6 million, or $0.54 per diluted share in the prior fiscal year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA was $19.8 million, compared to $17.4 million in fiscal 2023.

For more information about non-GAAP net income and Adjusted EBITDA, see the section below titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the reconciliation provided in this release.

“Ooma performed well financially in Q4, delivering $61.7 million in revenue and $3.5 million of non-GAAP net income,” said Eric Stang, chief executive officer of Ooma. “For our full fiscal year 2024, we grew revenue by 10%, non-GAAP net income by 13%, adjusted EBITDA by 14%, and cash flow from operations by 40%. We achieved this growth while also investing significantly in new market opportunities and international expansion, and we believe we enter FY25 in a strong position with leading product solutions. Our plans for FY25 include continued investment across our business as we capitalize on key industry trends, such as the expansion of cloud communications for small to medium sized businesses and the sunsetting of copper lines. We believe our strategic focus on small to medium sized businesses, larger businesses that are in select verticals, POTS copper line replacement, and wholesale and CPaaS platform opportunities positions us well for future success.”

Business Outlook:

For the first quarter of fiscal 2025, Ooma expects:

  • Total revenue in the range of $61.7 million to $62.2 million.
  • GAAP net loss in the range of $2.6 million to $2.9 million and GAAP net loss per share in the range of $0.10 to $0.11.
  • Non-GAAP net income in the range of $3.0 million to $3.3 million and non-GAAP net income per share in the range of $0.11 to $0.12.

For the full fiscal year 2025, Ooma expects:

  • Total revenue in the range of $250.0 million to $253.0 million.
  • GAAP net loss in the range of $8.6 million to $9.6 million, and GAAP net loss per share in the range of $0.32 to $0.36.
  • Non-GAAP net income in the range of $14.0 million to $15.0 million, and non-GAAP net income per share in the range of $0.51 to $0.55.

The following is a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to non-GAAP net income and GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share to non-GAAP diluted net income per share guidance for the first fiscal quarter ending April 30, 2024 and the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025 (in millions, except per share data):

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 certain non-GAAP financial measures, including: non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP gross profit and gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA represents the net income before interest and other income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization of capital expenditures, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition-related transaction costs, certain litigation settlement and restructuring costs, non-recurring gains, and stock-based compensation expense and related taxes.

Other non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation expense and related taxes, certain non-recurring charges and gains, such as acquisition-related income tax benefits, acquisition-related transaction costs, amortization of intangible assets and certain legal settlement and restructuring costs. Non-GAAP weighted-average diluted shares include the effect of potentially dilutive securities from the company’s stock-based benefit plans.

These non-GAAP financial measures are presented to provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results and core business operations. Ooma considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful measures of the operating performance of the company, because they contain adjustments for unusual events or factors that do not directly affect what management considers to be Ooma's core operating performance and are used by the company's management for that purpose. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures allow for a better evaluation of the company's performance by facilitating a meaningful comparison of the company's core operating results in a given period to those in prior and future periods. In addition, investors often use similar measures to evaluate the operating performance of a company.

Non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only to aid an understanding of the company's operating results. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. A limitation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented is that the adjustments relate to items that the company generally expects to continue to recognize. The adjustment of these items should not be construed as an inference that the adjusted gains or expenses are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Therefore, both GAAP financial measures of Ooma's financial performance and the respective non-GAAP measures should be considered together. Please see the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure in the tables below.

Ooma uses the investor relations section on its website as a means of complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD. Accordingly, investors should monitor Ooma's investor relations website in addition to following Ooma's press releases, Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings, and public conference calls and webcasts.
