Q3 Enterprise Anti-Phishing ARR Grows 74% Year-over-Year Driven by Increased Demand
McLean, VA. – November 14, 2022 – Cyren (NASDAQ: CYRN) today announced its third quarter 2022 financial results for the period ending September 30, 2022.
Cyren reported quarterly revenues of $5.8 million for the third quarter of 2022, a 4% increase compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2021. Net loss from continuing operations was $5.5 million for 2022, compared to a net loss of $6.1 million in 2021.
“We are pleased to see year-over-year revenue growth in our third quarter, driven by both our enterprise anti-phishing business as well as our threat detection OEM business,” said Brett Jackson, CEO of Cyren. “Based on increased demand for our products in our third quarter and a strong pipeline entering the final quarter of our fiscal year, we expect year-over-year revenue growth to continue in the fourth quarter.”
During the third quarter, Cyren completed the sale of its legacy security email gateway business for €10 million in cash, subject to customer post-closing adjustments. As a result, and in accordance with GAAP, Cyren’s third quarter continuing financial results are presented net of the divested business unless otherwise indicated.
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:
•Revenues for the third quarter of 2022 were $5.8 million, compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2021. The 4% revenue increase was driven by growth in Cyren’s enterprise anti-phishing business as well as its threat detection OEM business.
•Operating expenses increased to $8.3 million for the third quarter of 2022 compared to $8.1 million for the third quarter of 2021, driven by an increase in sales and marketing investment to drive continued growth of Cyren’s enterprise anti-phishing business.
•Financial expense was $7 thousand for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $282 thousand for the third quarter of 2021. This decline was largely driven by changes in foreign exchange rates, as the Euro continued to decline against the U.S. dollar during the quarter, resulting in a reduction in certain Euro-denominated liabilities.
•Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2022 was $5.5 million, compared to a net loss of $6.1 million for the third quarter of 2021. Gross profit increased by $0.5 million or 22.3% driven by higher revenues, as discussed above, and lower cost of revenues due to lower depreciation and favorable FX effects on expenses.
•As a result of the Cyren GmbH divestment, Cyren reported a loss from discontinued operations of $0.6 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to income from discontinued operations of $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2021. This one-time event contributed to Cyren’s $6.1 million GAAP net loss for the quarter, compared to the $5.8 million net loss reported for the third quarter of 2021.
•GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of 2022 was $0.71, compared to a loss of $1.57 per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of 2021.
•Non-GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2022, including continuing and discontinued operations, was $5.5 million, compared to a net loss of $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2021.


•Non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share for the first quarter of 2022 was $0.70, compared to a loss of $1.21 per basic and diluted share for the third quarter of 2021.
•Cash used in operating activities for the third quarter of 2022 was $4.0 million compared to operating cash usage of $5.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. This decline in cash used was largely the result of a lower loss from continuing operations of $0.6 million and favorable timing differences in our collections of accounts receivable. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in operating activities was $9.0 million compared to $12.5 million for the same period in 2021.
•Net cash provided by investing activities for the third quarter of 2022 was 7,365 compared to cash used in investing activities of $0.3 million for the same period in 2021, reflecting the proceeds received from the Cyren GmbH divestment in 2022.
•Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2022, was $14.1 million, compared to $10.0 million as of June 30, 2022.
•For information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this release, please see “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Selected GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Non-GAAP financial measures consist of GAAP financial measures adjusted to exclude: stock-based compensation expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and deferred taxes related to acquisitions, adjustments to earn-out obligations, and capitalization of technology. The purpose of such adjustments is to give an indication of the company’s performance exclusive of non-cash charges and other items that are considered by management to be outside of the company’s core operating results. The company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with the company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Company management regularly uses supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the business and make operating decisions.
These non-GAAP measures are among the primary factors management uses in planning for and forecasting future periods. The company believes this adjustment is useful to investors as a measure of the ongoing performance of the business. The company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide consistent and comparable measures to help investors understand the company’s current and future operating cash flow performance. These non-GAAP financial measures may differ materially from the non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Reconciliation between results on a GAAP and non-GAAP basis is provided in a table immediately following the Consolidated Statements of Income. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management uses both GAAP and non-GAAP measures when evaluating the business internally and therefore felt it important to make these non-GAAP adjustments available to investors.
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. For example, statements in the future tense, and statements including words such as “expect,” “plan,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” or “believe” are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding expectations that Cyren Inbox Security will be the key driver of future growth, expectations regarding developing a high-growth enterprise revenue stream that will materially contribute to Cyren’s results and expectations regarding our products, including Cyren Inbox Security. These statements are based on information available at the time of the press release and the company assumes no obligation to update any of them. The statements in this press release are not guarantees of future performance and actual results could differ materially from current expectations as a result of numerous factors, including our ability to continue as a going concern, our ability to execute our business strategy, including our sales and business development plans, our ability to timely and successfully enhance and improve our existing solutions and introduce new solutions, the commercial success of such enhancements and new solutions, including Cyren Inbox Security, lack of demand for our solutions, including as a result of actual or perceived decreases in levels of advanced cyber attacks, our ability to manage our cost structure, avoid unanticipated liabilities and achieve profitability, our ability to grow our revenues, including the ability of existing solutions to drive sufficient revenue, our ability to attract new customers and increase revenue from existing customers, market acceptance of our existing and new product offerings, our continued listing on NASDAQ, business conditions and growth or deterioration in the internet security market, technological developments, products offered by competitors, availability of qualified staff, and technological difficulties and resource constraints encountered in developing new products, as well as those risks described in the company’s publicly filed reports, which are available through www.sec.gov.
