DigitalOcean Announces Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Revenue Grew 35% to $103.8 million and ARR Increased to $426 million, Up 36% year-over-year

Net Dollar Retention Rate Increased to 113% and Average Revenue Per Customer Grew 25% year-over-year

DigitalOcean Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: DOCN), the cloud for developers, startups and SMBs, today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

“We had an outstanding second quarter with strong revenue growth acceleration and continued improvement in our capital efficiency,” said Yancey Spruill, CEO of DigitalOcean. “We are excited about the progress we have made in leveraging simplicity across our business to better serve our customers and believe we have a path to a durable 30%+ growth rate for 2021 and next year. Adding to the strong quarter, we introduced Managed MongoDB which will continue to drive the revenue growth from our managed service offerings.”

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue was $103.8 million, an increase of 35% year-over-year.
  • Annual Run-Rate Revenue (ARR) ended the quarter at $426 million, an increase of 36% year-over-year.
  • GAAP Gross Profit of $60.7 million or 58% of revenue and adjusted Gross Profit of $81.1 million or 78% of revenue.
  • Loss from operations was $2.6 million and operating margin was (3)% as compared to income from operations of $1.8 million and operating margin of 2% in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $31.4 million and adjusted EBITDA margin was 30% of revenue as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $23.9 million and adjusted EBITDA margin of 31% in the prior year period.
  • Capital expenditures were $26.0 million or 25% of revenue as compared to $30.8 million or 40% of revenue in the prior year period.
  • Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were $579.4 million with zero debt as of June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 Operational Highlights:

  • Total customers of approximately 602K at the end of the quarter, up 9% as compared to the second quarter 2020.
  • Net Dollar Retention Rate (NDR) was 113%, an increase of 1,100 basis points from the second quarter 2020.
  • Average Revenue Per Customer (ARPU) in the quarter was $58.07, an increase of 25% over the second quarter 2020.

Launch of Managed MongoDB:

In late Q2, at DigitalOcean’s virtual conference for developers and startups, deploy, the company announced Managed MongoDB, a new, fully-managed database as a service (DBaaS) offering which helps developers of all skill levels easily spin up MongoDB clusters on DigitalOcean.

Financial Outlook:

Based on information available as of August 5, 2021, for the third quarter of 2021 we expect:

  • Total revenue of $106 to $109 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30% to 31%.
  • Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 119 to 121 million shares.

For the full year 2021, we expect:

  • Total revenue of $419 to $423 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30% to 31%.
  • Fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding of 115 to 117 million shares.
  • Capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue of 25% to 26%.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. Accordingly, reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP.

DigitalOcean will host a conference call today, August 5, 2021, at 8:00 a.m. ET to review its results.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP performance financial measures, as described below, to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We are presenting these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe, when taken collectively, they may be helpful to investors because they provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance.

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. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results.

Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin

We believe adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin, when taken together with our GAAP financial results, provides a meaningful assessment of our performance, and is useful for the preparation of our annual operating budget and quarterly forecasts.

We define adjusted gross profit as gross profit exclusive of stock-based compensation, amortization of capitalized internal-use software development costs and depreciation of our data center equipment included within Cost of revenue. We exclude stock-based compensation, which is a non-cash item, because we do not consider it indicative of our core operating performance. We exclude depreciation and amortization, which primarily relates to our investments in our data center servers that are long lived assets with an economic life of five years, because it may not reflect our current or future cash spending levels to support our business. While we intend to spend a significant amount on capital expenditures on an absolute basis in the coming years, our capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue has declined significantly and will continue to decline. We define adjusted gross margin as a percentage of adjusted gross profit to revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define adjusted EBITDA as net loss attributable to common stockholders, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, interest expense, income tax expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, restructuring and severance expense, asset impairment, revaluation of warrants and other charges. We believe that adjusted EBITDA, when taken together with our GAAP financial results, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business, determining incentive compensation, evaluating our operating performance, and for internal planning and forecasting purposes.

Key Business Metrics:

We utilize the key metrics set forth below to help us evaluate our business and growth, identify trends, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions.

Customers

We define a customer at the end of any period as a person or entity who has incurred usage in the period and, as a result, has generated an invoice of greater than $0 for that period. We treat each customer that generates an invoice as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers if they separately signed up on our platform.

ARPU

We calculate ARPU on a monthly basis as our total revenue in that period divided by the number of customers determined as of the last day of that period. For a quarterly or annual period, ARPU is determined as the weighted average monthly ARPU over such three or 12-month period.

ARR

We calculate ARR at a point in time by multiplying the latest monthly period’s revenue by 12.

Net Dollar Retention Rate

We calculate net dollar retention rate monthly by starting with the revenue from the cohort of all customers during the corresponding month 12 months prior, or the Prior Period Revenue. We then calculate the revenue from these same customers as of the current month, or the Current Period Revenue, including any expansion and net of any contraction or attrition from these customers over the last 12 months. The calculation also includes revenue from customers that generated revenue before, but not in, the corresponding month 12 months prior, but subsequently generated revenue in the current month and are therefore reflected in the Current Period Revenue. We include this group of re-engaged customers in this calculation because our customers frequently use our platform for projects that stop and start over time. We then divide the total Current Period Revenue by the total Prior Period Revenue to arrive at the net dollar retention rate for the relevant month. For a quarterly or annual period, the net dollar retention rate is determined as the average monthly net dollar retention rates over such three or 12-month period.

Capital Expenditures as a Percentage of Revenue

We calculate capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue by dividing total capital expenditures during the period, including purchases of intangible assets, seller financed equipment purchases and acquisition of property and equipment from capital leases, by revenue.
