Business Outlook
Mimecast is providing guidance for the second quarter and full year 2017.
Second Quarter 2017 Guidance:
For the second quarter of 2017 constant currency revenue growth is expected to
be in the range of 30% and 32% and revenue in the range of $41.5 million and
$41.9 million. Exchange rates have weakened in the period, primarily due to the
strengthening of the US dollar compared to British Pound in the same period in
the prior year. Fluctuations in these rates have impacted our revenue guidance
by $2.8 million. Approximately $0.5 million of this impact relates to the
translation of South African Rand based revenue and $2.3 million relates to
British Pound based revenue. We believe that constant currency revenue growth is
a useful way to measure the underlying strength of our business as it excludes
these short term fluctuations. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range
of $1.6 to $2.4 million.
Full Year 2017 Guidance:
For the full year 2017 constant currency revenue growth is expected to be in the
range of 29% to 31% and revenue to be in the range of $172.0 million to $175.6
million. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations are impacting this guidance by $7.8
million of which $0.9 million relates to the South African Rand and $6.9 million
relates to the British Pound. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of
$9.0 to $11.0 million.
GAAP net income (loss) is the most comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted EBITDA differs from GAAP net income (loss) in that it excludes
depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation expense, interest income
and interest expense, the provision for income taxes and foreign exchange income
(expense). Mimecast is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate
outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort. Therefore, Mimecast
has not provided guidance for GAAP net income (loss) or a reconciliation of the
foregoing forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance to GAAP net income (loss).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have provided in this release financial information that has not been
prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use these non-GAAP financial measures
internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to
investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing
operational performance. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial
measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing
operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other
companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial
measures to investors.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a
substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP
financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures
provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release
Revenue Constant Currency Growth Rate. We believe revenue constant currency
growth rate is a key indicator of our operating results. We calculate revenue
constant currency growth rate by translating revenue from entities reporting in
foreign currencies into U.S. dollars using the comparable foreign currency
exchange rates from the prior fiscal period. To determine projected revenue
growth rates on a constant currency basis for first quarter and full year 2017,
expected revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies was translated
into U.S. dollars using the comparable prior year period's monthly average
foreign currency exchange rates.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA margin are key indicators of our operating results. We define
Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude: depreciation and
amortization, share-based compensation expense, interest income and interest
expense, the provision for income taxes and foreign exchange income (expense)
predominantly related to the elimination of intercompany balances. We define
Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA over revenue in the period.
Non-GAAP net income (loss). We define non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income
(loss) less share-based compensation expense. We consider this non-GAAP
financial measure to be a useful metric for management and investors because it
excludes the effect of share-based compensation expense so that our management
and investors can compare our recurring core business net results over multiple
periods. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP net
income (loss) versus net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP. For
example, as noted above, non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes share-based
compensation expense. In addition, the components of the costs that we exclude
in our calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) may differ from the components
that our peer companies exclude when they report their non-GAAP results of
operations. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific
information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from non-GAAP net income (loss)
and evaluating non-GAAP net income (loss) together with net income (loss)
calculated in accordance with GAAP.
Free cash flow. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating
activities minus capital expenditures. We consider free cash flow to be a
liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors
about the amount of cash generated by the business that, after the acquisition
of property and equipment, can be used for strategic opportunities, including
investing in our business, and strengthening the balance sheet. Analysis of free
cash flow facilitates management's comparisons of our operating results to
competitors' operating results. A limitation of using free cash flow versus the
GAAP measure of net cash provided by operating activities as a means for
evaluating our company is that free cash flow does not represent the total
increase or decrease in the cash balance from operations for the period because
it excludes cash used for capital expenditures during the period. Management
compensates for this limitation by providing information about our capital
expenditures on the face of the cash flow statement and in the "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -
Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of our reports filed with the SEC.

Key Performance Indicators
In addition to traditional financial metrics, such as revenue and revenue growth
trends, we monitor several other non-GAAP financial measures and non-financial
metrics to help us evaluate growth trends, establish budgets, measure the
effectiveness of our sales and marketing efforts and assess operational
efficiencies. The key performance indicators that we monitor are as follows:

Gross profit percentage 73 % 70 %
Revenue constant currency growth rate (1) 32 % 32 %
Revenue retention rate (2) 110 % 108 %
Total customers (3) 19,900 14,500
Adjusted EBITDA (1) $ 1,860 $ 5,489
(1) Adjusted EBITDA and revenue constant currency growth rates are non-GAAP
measures. For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and revenue constant
currency growth rates to the nearest comparable GAAP measures, see
"Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
(2) We calculate our revenue retention rate by annualizing constant currency
revenue recorded on the last day of the measurement period for only those
customers in place throughout the entire measurement period. We include add-
on, or upsell, revenue from additional employees and services purchased by
existing customers. We divide the result by revenue on a constant currency
basis on the first day of the measurement period for all customers in place
at the beginning of the measurement period. The measurement period is the
trailing twelve months. The revenue on a constant currency basis is based on
the average exchange rates in effect during the respective period.
(3) Reflects the customer count on the last day of the period rounded to the
nearest hundred customers. We define a customer as an entity with an active
subscription contract as of the measurement date. A customer is typically a
parent company or, in a few cases, a significant subsidiary that works with
us directly.
