(NYSE: CWAN) ("Clearwater Analytics" or the "Company"), an industry-leading SaaS solution for automated investment data aggregation, reconciliation, accounting, and reporting, announced today its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.

2Net loss in full year 2021 included a $10.3 million loss on debt extinguishment in third quarter 2021.

"Clearwater Analytics had an extremely strong quarter as we continue to enable our clients to grow faster. Clients are choosing our SaaS platform to provide them with the freedom to invest in new asset classes and geographies and to acquire new books of business, all without dramatically increasing operational expenses," said Sandeep Sahai, Chief Executive Officer, Clearwater Analytics. "We are pleased that our fourth quarter and full year 2021 results continue the consistent, reliable, and durable growth trend we have achieved over the last several years. We continue to expand into international markets, as evidenced by the signing of Athora, an acquisitive global insurance company. Of the more than 100 new clients added in 2021, nearly 45% left a legacy competitor, further demonstrating the differentiation of our single instance, multi-tenant cloud-native platform in the market."

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Results Summary

  • Revenue: Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 reached $69.8 million, an increase of 27.4%, from $54.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • Gross Profit: Gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $49.6 million compared with $40.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Gross margin was 71.1%, versus 74.3% in the fourth quarter of 2020. Gross margin decreased primarily due to increased equity-based compensation expense related to equity grant activity and the increase in grant date fair value and modification of equity awards in connection with the Company's recent IPO. On an adjusted basis, the Company continues to maintain a strong stable gross margin. Non-GAAP gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $52.7 million, which equates to 75.5%, consistent with full year 2021 non-GAAP gross margin of 75.6%.
  • Income/(Loss) from Operations: Income from operations for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.7 million compared with loss from operations of $61.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.

  • Net Income/(Loss): Net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $0.1 million compared with net loss of $69.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $13.9 million compared with non-GAAP net loss of $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.
  • Net Income/(Loss) Per Share and Non-GAAP Net Income/(Loss) Per Share attributable to Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc.: Net income per basic and diluted share was $0.00 in the fourth quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.06 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $20.1 million, compared with $6.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 28.8% and includes a benefit of $2.0 million from the release of accrued sales tax liability. Excluding that impact, adjusted EBITDA margin would have been 25.9% in the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Cash: Cash and cash equivalents were $254.6 million as of December 31, 2021.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Key Metrics Summary

  • Annualized Recurring Revenue: As of December 31, 2021, annualized recurring revenue ("ARR") reached $277.8 million, an increase of 26.3% from $219.9 million as of December 31, 2020.
    ARR is calculated at the end of a period by dividing the recurring revenue in the last month of such period by the number of days in the month and multiplying by 365.
  • Gross Revenue Retention Rate: As of December 31, 2021, the gross revenue retention rate was 98%. The Company has reported a gross revenue retention rate of 98% for twelve consecutive quarters.
    Gross revenue retention rate represents annual contract value ("ACV") at the beginning of the 12-month period ended on the reporting date less client attrition over the prior 12-month period, divided by ACV at the beginning of the 12-month period, expressed as a percentage. ACV is comprised of annualized recurring revenue plus contracted-not-billed revenue, which represents the estimated annual contracted revenue for new and existing client opportunities prior to revenue recognition.
  • Net Revenue Retention Rate: As of December 31, 2021, the net revenue retention rate was 111%, which represents a 210 basis point improvement over 109% at December 31, 2020. The Company saw year-over-year increases in net retention in North America as well as internationally. Asset Management clients were a particular standout, showing notable increases throughout the year.
    Net revenue retention rate is the percentage of recurring revenue from clients on the platform for 12 months and includes changes from the addition, removal, or value of assets on our platform, contractual changes that have an impact to annualized recurring revenues and lost revenue from client attrition.
  • Clients: As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 1,130 clients, and 59 clients that contributed at least $1 million in ARR, representing a 22.9% year-over-year increase.
  • Assets Under Management (AUM): As of December 31, 2021, the platform processes and reports on $5.9 trillion assets daily.

Recent Business Highlights

  • Significant client wins in North America included several large asset managers, insurers, and state, county, and city governments, including American Century Life Insurance, Carlisle Companies Inc, Circle, City and County of San Francisco, Highmark Health, Madison Re, Sprinklr, and many more.
  • Extensive product enhancements most notably include the release of Clearwater Prism's external accounting book of record (ABOR) integration with a real estate property management solution and automated client data integration for historical performance which allows asset managers to maintain performance history. Other functionality released includes accounting and regulatory updates such as the release of Dutch GAAP, enriched asset class reporting, and upgraded user experience and reporting.
  • Successfully onboarded well over 100 new clients during 2021, including Chimera Investment Corporation, Gilead Foundation, Global Atlantic, Fastly, Inc., and many more.

Certain components of the guidance given above are provided on a non-GAAP basis only without providing a reconciliation to guidance provided on a GAAP basis. Information is presented in this manner, consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules, because the preparation of such a reconciliation could not be accomplished without "unreasonable efforts." The Company does not have access to certain information that would be necessary to provide such a reconciliation, including non-recurring items that are not indicative of the Company's ongoing operations. The Company does not believe that this information is likely to be significant to an assessment of the Company's ongoing operations.

Use of non-GAAP Information 

This press release contains certain non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share.

The non-GAAP measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. However, the Company believes that this non-GAAP information is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate its operating performance, when reviewed in conjunction with its GAAP financial statements. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and because these amounts are not determined in accordance with GAAP, they should not be used exclusively in evaluating the Company's business and operations. In addition, undue reliance should not be placed upon non-GAAP or operating information because this information is neither standardized across companies nor subjected to the same control activities and audit procedures that produce the Company's GAAP financial results.

The Company's non-GAAP statement of operations measures, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, are adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items that management believes are not indicative of its ongoing operations. These adjusted measures exclude the impact of share-based compensation and eliminate potential differences in results of operations between periods caused by factors such financing and capital structures, taxation positions or regimes, restructuring, impairment and other charges.  Please refer to the reconciliations of these measures below to what the Company believes are the most directly comparable measures evaluated in accordance with GAAP. 

Use of Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements include information concerning the Company's possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, technology developments, financing and investment plans, dividend policy, competitive position, industry and regulatory environment, potential growth opportunities and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by terms such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "seek," "should," "will," "would" or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond Clearwater Analytics' control, that may cause the Company's actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from Clearwater Analytics' current expectations and include, but are not limited to, the Company's ability to keep pace with rapid technological change and competitors in its industry, the Company's ability to manage growth, the Company's ability to attract and retain skilled employees, the possibility that the Company's solutions fail to perform properly, disruptions and failures in the Company's and third parties' computer equipment, cloud-based services, electronic delivery systems, networks and telecommunications systems and infrastructure, the failure to protect the Company, its customers' and/or its vendors' confidential information and/or intellectual property, claims of infringement of others' intellectual property, factors related to the Company's ownership structure and status as a "controlled company" as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed in Clearwater Analytics' periodic public filings with the SEC, including but not limited to those discussed under "Risk Factors" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1, declared effective on September 23, 2021, in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 that will be filed following this earnings release and in other periodic reports filed by Clearwater Analytics with the SEC. These filings are available at www.sec.gov and on Clearwater Analytics' website.

Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent management's beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this press release. and should not be relied upon as representing Clearwater Analytics' expectations or beliefs as of any date subsequent to the time they are made.  Clearwater Analytics does not undertake to and specifically declines any obligation to update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of Clearwater Analytics.
