THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

Revenue

Third quarter revenue of $233.2 million increased $29.2 million or 14% as compared to the third quarter of 2022. Revenue generated from our Enterprise sales channel increased 60% as compared to the third quarter of 2022, to $127.2 million, and represented 55% of third quarter revenue in 2023. The increase in Enterprise revenues was primarily driven by growth in our computer vision data partnerships which generated $45.5 million during the third quarter, compared to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2022. Revenue from our E-commerce sales channel decreased 15% as compared to the third quarter of 2022, to $106.0 million, and represented 45% of total revenue in the third quarter of 2023. The decline in E-commerce revenue was primarily driven by weakness in new customer acquisition.

On a constant currency basis, revenue increased 12% in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter of 2022. On a constant currency basis, Enterprise revenues increased by 57%, and E-commerce revenue decreased by 16% in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to 2022.

Net income and net income per diluted share

Net income of $28.4 million increased $5.4 million as compared to $23.0 million for the third quarter in 2022. Net income per diluted share was $0.79, as compared to $0.64 for the same period in 2022.

Third quarter 2023 net income was favorably impacted by a non-taxable bargain purchase gain of $9.9 million associated with the our acquisition of Giphy which occurred in the second quarter. Third quarter 2023 net income was also favorably impacted our growth in revenue and unfavorably impacted by expenses associated with reimbursable costs paid to the Giphy workforce.

Adjusted net income per diluted share was $1.26 as compared to $1.00 for the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $0.26 per diluted share.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA of $64.7 million for the third quarter of 2023 increased by $8.7 million, or 15%, as compared to the third quarter of 2022, due primarily to revenue growth partially offset by higher operating expenses. The adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.7% for third quarter of 2023 increased by 28 basis points, as compared to 27.5% in the third quarter of 2022.

THIRD QUARTER LIQUIDITY

Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $11.9 million to $75.2 million at September 30, 2023, as compared with $87.1 million as of June 30, 2023. This decrease was driven by $25.3 million of net cash used in financing activities, partially offset by $10.0 million of net cash provided by our operating activities and $4.2 million of net cash provided by investing activities.

Net cash provided by our operating activities was driven by our operating income, in addition to changes in the timing of cash collections from our customers and payments pertaining to operating expenses. Operating cash flows were unfavorably impacted by payments made to the Giphy workforce, the reimbursement of which is reflected in Investing Activities.

Cash provided by investing activities primarily consists of $19.0 million related to the receipt of the Giphy Retention Compensation, as reimbursed by the Giphy seller, partially offset by $16.3 million related to capital expenditures and content acquisition.

Cash used in financing activities primarily consists of $15.0 million paid for the repurchase of common stock under our share repurchase program, $9.6 million related to the payment of the quarterly cash dividend and $0.7 million paid in settlement of tax withholding obligations related to employee stock-based compensation awards.

Free cash flow was $12.7 million for the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of $8.7 million from the third quarter of 2022.

QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.27 per common share or $9.6 million.

On October 23, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.27 per share of outstanding common stock, payable on December 14, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 30, 2023.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement Shutterstock’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, Shutterstock’s management considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, collectively referred to as non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow.

Shutterstock defines adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation, bargain purchase gain related to the acquisition of Giphy, Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations, interest income and expense and income taxes; adjusted EBITDA margin as the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to revenue; adjusted net income as net income adjusted for the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, bargain purchase gain related to the acquisition of Giphy, Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations and the estimated tax impact of such adjustments; adjusted net income per diluted share as adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted shares; revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage) as the increase in current period revenues over prior period revenues, utilizing fixed exchange rates for translating foreign currency revenues for all periods in the comparison; billings as revenue adjusted for the change in deferred revenue, excluding deferred revenue acquired through business combinations; and free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, adjusted for capital expenditures, content acquisition and cash received related to Giphy Retention Compensation in connection with the acquisition of Giphy.

The expense associated with the Giphy Retention Compensation related to (i) the one-time employment inducement bonuses and (ii) the vesting of the cash value of unvested Meta equity awards held by the employees prior to closing, which are reflected in operating expenses (together, the “Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring”), are required payments in accordance with the terms of the acquisition. Meta’s sale of Giphy was directed by the CMA and accordingly, the terms of the acquisition were subject to CMA preapproval. Management considers the operating expense associated with these required payments to be unusual and non-recurring in nature. The Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring is not considered an ongoing expense necessary to operate the Company’s business. Therefore, such expenses have been included in the below adjustments for calculating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company also incurred $6.5 million of Giphy Retention Compensation expense related to recurring employee costs, which is included in operating expenses, and are not included in the below adjustments for calculating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share.

These figures have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered only in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Shutterstock cautions investors that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.

Shutterstock’s management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow are useful to investors because these measures enable investors to analyze Shutterstock’s operating results on the same basis as that used by management. Additionally, management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share provide useful information to investors about the performance of the Company’s overall business because such measures eliminate the effects of unusual or other infrequent charges that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock’s underlying operating performance; and revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage) provides useful information to investors by eliminating the effect of foreign currency fluctuations that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock’s operating performance. Management also believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the comparability for investors in assessing Shutterstock’s financial reporting. Shutterstock’s management believes that free cash flow is useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in internal-use software and website development costs to support the Company’s ongoing business operations and provides them with the same measures that management uses as the basis for making resource allocation decisions.

Shutterstock’s management also uses the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing the business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of Shutterstock’s business operations, financial performance and overall liquidity; (ii) facilitate management’s internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of its business operations; (iii) facilitate management’s external comparisons of the results of its overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the operating performance of Shutterstock’s management team and, together with other operational objectives, as a measure in evaluating employee compensation and bonuses; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.

Reconciliations of the differences between adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings, free cash flow, and the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are presented under the headings “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP” and “Supplemental Financial Data” immediately following the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We do not provide a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance or a reconciliation of adjusted net income per diluted share guidance to net income per diluted share guidance, because we are unable to calculate with reasonable certainty the impact of potential future transactions, including, but not limited to, capital structure transactions, restructuring, acquisitions, divestitures or other events and asset impairments, without unreasonable effort. These amounts depend on various factors and could have a material impact on net income and net income per diluted share, but may be excluded from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per diluted share. In addition, we believe such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP

(In thousands, except per share information)

(unaudited)

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow are not financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as alternatives to any other measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.
