Thryv Grows SaaS Revenue 24% Year-Over-Year in First Quarter 2023

May 4, 2023

First quarter total SaaS clients increased 15% and SaaS monthly active users increased 25% year-over-year
Efficient customer channels and operating leverage deliver strong SaaS EBITDA outperformance

Thryv Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:THRY) (“Thryv” or the “Company”), the provider of Thryv, the leading small business software platform, announced that its SaaS revenue grew 24% year-over-year in the first quarter of 2023.

“We delivered strong first quarter results,” said Joe Walsh, Chairman and CEO. “Every success metric is steady or increasing year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter. We performed well against our guidance, reporting strong SaaS revenue growth, improving SaaS Adjusted EBITDA, and increasing marketing services revenue. Our key SaaS metrics, subscribers and ARPU, showed continued strength as a result of prioritizing innovation and execution. This gives us strong predictability and reflects steady, smart growth. We are intensely focused on increasing engagement and usage because these lead to increased renewal and spend.”

“Acquisitions of well-run marketing services businesses are a key part of our strategy,” Walsh continued. “We are pleased to announce we've acquired Yellow Holdings Limited, the official yellow pages publisher of New Zealand. Also known as Yellow, the company has been New Zealand's leading marketing services company for more than 50 years and has over 10,000 digital clients. Yellow's excellent team will now be able to guide local business owners who are ready to modernize their business, and, as a result, adopt our Thryv platform.”

Thryv continues to roll out new products based on its “center” strategy. The most recent launch, Marketing Center, is gaining client sign-ups by providing tools SMBs need to market and grow. With the launch of additional centers over the next few years, Thryv will offer additional functionality at a variety of price points. As a small business scales and gains incremental value through its Thryv platform, clients will be able to expand the solutions they purchase from Thryv.

“Looking ahead to the rest of 2023, we remain confident in our previous full year SaaS revenue guidance and are focused on achieving SaaS EBITDA profitability,” said Paul Rouse, Chief Financial Officer. “As a result of our recent acquisition of Yellow Holdings and predictable performance in billings, we are increasing our full year guidance of both marketing services revenue and marketing services EBITDA. We are pleased with our results this quarter. Our goal is to drive more operating leverage in the SaaS business as the year progresses.”

Thryv U.S. includes Vivial results of operations subsequent to the January 21, 2022 acquisition date.

Non-GAAP Measures

Our results included in this press release include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Gross Profit, which are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Please refer to the supplemental information presented in the tables below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income and Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross profit. Both Net income and Gross profit are the most comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We believe that these measures provide additional tools for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. However, it is important to note that the particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry.

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable GAAP measure, Net income:

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained herein are not historical facts, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that include the words “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “forecast”, “estimate”, “expect”, “preliminary”, “intend”, “plan”, “target”, “project”, “outlook”, “future”, “forward”, “guidance” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, the risks related to the following: risks related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity to fund operations; the Company’s future operating and financial performance; the Company’s ability to consummate acquisitions, or, if consummated, to successfully integrate acquired businesses into the Company’s operations, the Company’s ability to recognize the benefits of acquisitions, or the failure of an acquired company to achieve its plans and objectives; limitations on our operating and strategic flexibility and the ability to operate our business, finance our capital needs or expand business strategies under the terms of our credit facilities; our ability to retain existing business and obtain and retain new business; general economic or business conditions affecting the markets we serve; declining use of print yellow page directories by consumers; our ability to collect trade receivables from clients to whom we extend credit; credit risk associated with our reliance on small and medium sized businesses as clients; our ability to attract and retain key managers; increased competition in our markets; our ability to obtain future financing due to changes in the lending markets or our financial position; our ability to maintain agreements with major Internet search and local media companies; reduced advertising spending and increased contract cancellations by our clients, which causes reduced revenue; and our ability to anticipate or respond effectively to changes in technology and consumer preferences as well as the risks and uncertainties set forth in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on From 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements.

If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. For these reasons, we caution you against relying on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof and, other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
