      Total Revenues of $699.2M, up 13% Year Over Year
      Subscription Services Revenues of $580.9M, up 17% Year Over Year

      PLEASANTON, Calif., Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Veeva Systems Inc. (NYSE: VEEV), a leading provider of industry cloud solutions for the global life sciences industry, today announced results for its third quarter ended October 31, 2024.

      "It was a great quarter of innovation and excellent execution across the board," said CEO Peter Gassner. "Especially significant was the hard work for the long term. We deepened a number of large, highly strategic relationships and are set to deliver the next generation of CRM this month with Vault CRM Suite to connect sales, marketing, and medical – a first for the industry."

      Fiscal 2025 Third Quarter Results:

      • Revenues(1): Total revenues for the third quarter were $699.2 million, up from $616.5 million one year ago, an increase of 13% year over year. Subscription services revenues for the third quarter were $580.9 million, up from $494.9 million one year ago, an increase of 17% year over year.

      • Operating Income and Non-GAAP Operating Income(1)(2): Third quarter operating income was $181.4 million, compared to $128.5 million one year ago, an increase of 41% year over year. Non-GAAP operating income for the third quarter was $304.0 million, compared to $234.6 million one year ago, an increase of 30% year over year.

      • Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income(1)(2): Third quarter net income was $185.8 million, compared to $135.2 million one year ago, an increase of 37% year over year. Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter was $288.3 million, compared to $218.7 million one year ago, an increase of 32% year over year.

      • Net Income per Share and Non-GAAP Net Income per Share(1)(2): For the third quarter, fully diluted net income per share was $1.13, compared to $0.83 one year ago, while non-GAAP fully diluted net income per share was $1.75, compared to $1.34 one year ago.

      "We delivered results ahead of guidance on all metrics, reflecting our operational discipline and the durability of our model," said CFO Brian Van Wagener. "With a clear product strategy, focused execution, and large market opportunity we are well positioned for strong growth and profitability for many years to come."

      Recent Highlights:

      • Leading in CRM with Innovation, Execution, and Customer Success Focus – Leadership in CRM continued with a focus on customer success and product excellence. More than 30 customers are now live on Vault CRM and the seven migrations from Veeva CRM to Vault CRM are on track for completion by year end. In November, the fourth top 20 biopharma committed to Vault CRM as its commercial foundation. And as planned, this month the latest release of Vault CRM will include the full functionality of Veeva CRM and additional new capabilities, marking the availability of the next generation of CRM for the industry.

      • New AI Capabilities Coming to Commercial – Veeva announced three new AI innovations planned for availability in late 2025. Coming in Vault CRM is CRM Bot, a GenAI assistant, and Voice Control, a voice interface leveraging Apple Intelligence. The company also announced MLR Bot for Vault PromoMats, which uses a Veeva-hosted large language model to speed review and approval by checking quality and content of promotional materials.

      • Long-term Focus on the Major Quality Opportunity – With the addition of more than 25 customers in the quarter, now more than 600 customers have selected at least one of the seven Vault Quality Suite applications available today. This milestone, along with the continued expansion of current customers with additional Quality applications, is the result of Veeva's long-term view to building clear leadership in large markets through product excellence and customer success.

      Financial Outlook:

      Veeva is providing guidance for its fiscal fourth quarter ending January 31, 2025 as follows:

      • Total revenues between $696 and $699 million.

      ___________

      (1) The customer contracting change that standardized termination for convenience (TFC) rights in our master subscription agreements resulted in a change in the timing of revenue for certain customer contracts and reduced revenues, operating income and non-GAAP operating income, and net income and non-GAAP net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.


      (2) This press release uses non-GAAP financial metrics that are adjusted for the impact of various GAAP items. See the section titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the tables entitled "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for details.


      (3) Veeva is not able, at this time, to provide GAAP targets for operating income and fully diluted net income per share for the fourth fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2025 or the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025 because of the difficulty of estimating certain items excluded from non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP fully diluted net income per share that cannot be reasonably predicted, such as charges related to stock-based compensation expense. The effect of these excluded items may be significant.

      Forward-looking Statements
      This release contains forward-looking statements regarding Veeva's expected future performance and, in particular, includes quotes from management and guidance, provided as of December 5, 2024, about Veeva's expected future financial results. Estimating guidance accurately for future periods is difficult. It involves assumptions and internal estimates that may prove to be incorrect and is based on plans that may change. Hence, there is a significant risk that actual results could differ materially from the guidance we have provided in this release and we have no obligation to update such guidance. There are also numerous risks that have the potential to negatively impact our financial performance, including issues related to the performance, availability, security, or privacy of our products, competitive factors, customer decisions and priorities, events that impact the life sciences industry, general macroeconomic and geopolitical events (including inflationary pressures, changes in interest rates, currency exchange fluctuations and impacts related to Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas conflict), and issues that impact our ability to hire, retain and adequately compensate talented employees. We have summarized what we believe are the principal risks to our business in a section titled "Summary of Risk Factors" on pages 36 and 37 in our filing on Form 10-Q for the period ended July 31, 2024 which you can find here. Additional details on the risks and uncertainties that may impact our business can be found in the same filing on Form 10-Q and in our subsequent SEC filings, which you can access at sec.gov.

      Non-GAAP Financial Measures
      In Veeva's public disclosures, Veeva has provided non-GAAP measures, which it defines as financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. In addition to its GAAP measures, Veeva uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally for budgeting and resource allocation purposes and in analyzing its financial results. For the reasons set forth below, Veeva believes that excluding the following items provides information that is helpful in understanding its operating results, evaluating its future prospects, comparing its financial results across accounting periods, and comparing its financial results to its peers, many of which provide similar non-GAAP financial measures.

      • Excess tax benefits. Excess tax benefits from employee stock plans are dependent on previously agreed-upon equity grants to our employees, vesting of those grants, stock price, and exercise behavior of our employees, which can fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Because these fluctuations are not directly related to our business operations, Veeva excludes excess tax benefits for its internal management reporting processes. Veeva management also finds it useful to exclude excess tax benefits when assessing the level of cash provided by operating activities. Given the nature of the excess tax benefits, Veeva believes excluding it allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our operating cash flows from quarter to quarter and those of other companies.

      • Stock-based compensation expenses. Veeva excludes stock-based compensation expenses primarily because they are non-cash expenses that Veeva excludes from its internal management reporting processes. Veeva's management also finds it useful to exclude these expenses when they assess the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Moreover, because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types that companies can use, Veeva believes excluding stock-based compensation expenses allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our recurring core business operating results and those of other companies.

      • Amortization of purchased intangibles. Veeva incurs amortization expense for purchased intangible assets in connection with acquisitions of certain businesses and technologies. Amortization of intangible assets is a non-cash expense and is inconsistent in amount and frequency because it is significantly affected by the timing, size of acquisitions and the inherent subjective nature of purchase price allocations. Because these costs have already been incurred and cannot be recovered, and are non-cash expenses, Veeva excludes these expenses for its internal management reporting processes. Veeva's management also finds it useful to exclude these charges when assessing the appropriate level of various operating expenses and resource allocations when budgeting, planning and forecasting future periods. Investors should note that the use of intangible assets contributed to Veeva's revenues earned during the periods presented and will contribute to Veeva's future period revenues as well.

      • Litigation settlement. We exclude costs related to the settlement of certain litigation matters because they are non-recurring and outside the ordinary course of business. Because these costs are unrelated to our day-to-day business operations, we believe excluding them enables more consistent evaluation of our operating results.

      • Income tax effects on the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP costs and expenses. The income tax effects that are excluded relate to the imputed tax impact on the difference between GAAP and non-GAAP costs and expenses due to stock-based compensation and purchased intangibles for GAAP and non-GAAP measures.

      There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures because non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies. The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by Veeva's management about which items are adjusted to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures. Veeva compensates for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing GAAP measures in its public disclosures.

      Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Veeva encourages its investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate its business, and to view its non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables below.
