Cloud-related subscription revenue up 90% year-over-year

“We continue to make progress at transforming our business to the cloud, demonstrated by 90% growth in cloud-related subscription revenue,” said Michael Howard, CEO at MariaDB plc. “This positions us well, as we bring substantial new capabilities to the next release of MariaDB SkySQL, a second generation cloud database, delivering unstoppable performance and scale for our customers. The immense value we deliver to our customers is further highlighted by a multi-year contract of up to $34 million closed our first quarter, the largest deal in the company’s history.”

  • Revenue: Total revenue was $12.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 20% year-over-year, which was consistent with our revenue growth rate over the last few years. Cloud-related subscription revenue grew 90% year-over-year, continuing the transformation of our on-premises business to the cloud.
  • Annual recurring revenue (ARR): Total ARR as of December 31, 2022 was $52.0 million, an increase of 17% year-over-year, which was consistent with our ARR growth rate over the last few years.

  • Net loss: Net loss was $13.0 million, or $0.55 per share, for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This compares to a net loss of $12.2 million in the year-ago period.

Key Business Metrics

We review a number of operating and financial metrics, including Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”), to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions.

We believe that our ARR is an important indicator of our financial performance and operating results given the renewable nature of our business. ARR does not have a standardized meaning and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled metrics presented by other companies. We define ARR as the annualized revenue for our subscription customers, excluding revenue from nonrecurring contract services (e.g., time and material consulting services). For our annual subscription customers, we calculate ARR as the annualized value of their subscription contracts as of the measurement date, assuming any contract that expires during the next 12 months is renewed on its existing terms (including contracts for which we are negotiating a renewal). In the event that we are negotiating a renewal with a customer after the expiration of their subscription, we continue to include that revenue in ARR if we are actively in discussion with the customer for a new subscription or renewal, or until we are notified that the customer will not be renewing its subscription. Additionally, a subset of customers under the MariaDB SkySQL subscription service offering has monthly pay-as-you-go contract terms. We calculate ARR as their monthly recurring revenue as of the measurement date, multiplied by 12. We consider these annualized pay-as-you-go revenues relevant in the determination of ARR as it aligns with our strategic goal to convert the pay-as-you-go customers to annual subscription customers.

ARR should be viewed independently of revenue, and does not represent our revenue under U.S. GAAP on an annualized basis, as it is an operating metric that can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal dates. ARR is not intended to be a replacement for or forecast of revenue. Our calculation of ARR is not adjusted for the impact of any known or projected events that may cause any such contract not to be renewed on its existing terms. Consequently, our ARR may fluctuate within each quarter and from quarter to quarter.

Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” “target,” similar or comparable expressions, and variations or negatives of such words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as the benefits of the recent business combination with Angel Pond Holdings Corporation and related transactions (the “Business Combination”), future opportunities for us and our products and services (including increased business in the cloud), the ultimate length and value of contractual relationships with our customers, and any other statements regarding MariaDB’s future operations, anticipated growth, financial or operating results or condition, capital allocation, market opportunities, strategies, anticipated business levels, future earnings, customer relationships (including terms), planned activities, competitions, and other expectations and targets for future periods.

As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, our actual results, condition, or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include: (a) our ability to continue as a going concern and to secure additional financing needed to meet short-term and long-term liquidity needs; (b) our ability to compete in an increasingly competitive environment; (c) our ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel, including officers (including a chief financial officer), directors and other key personnel (including those with public company experience); (d) our ability to acquire and integrate technologies, personnel, and other assets (including those related to the acquisition of CubeWerx and Sector 42 by Legacy MariaDB; (e) our ability to retain existing customers and their business and attract additional customers and their business; (f) intellectual property, information technology and privacy requirements that may subject us to unanticipated liabilities; (g) our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, and our ability to manage our operations, including potential growth and expansion of our business operations and building out controls, effectively; (h) our ability to effectively operate as a public company; (i) any regulatory actions or litigation relating to the Business Combination; (j) our ability to maintain the listing of our Ordinary Shares, Public Warrants or other securities on the NYSE; (k) the effects of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic or other infectious diseases, health epidemics, pandemics, and natural disasters on our business; and (l) other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in our SEC filings, such as on Forms 10-Q and 10-K, including those under “Risk Factors” therein, and other documents filed or to be filed with the SEC by us.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and we assume no obligation and, except as required by law, do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
