BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Brightcove Inc. (Nasdaq: BCOV), a leading global provider of cloud-based solutions for publishing and distributing professional digital media, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.

"We are pleased to announce strong financial results, highlighted by 53% revenue growth year-over-year, in our first quarter as a public company," said Jeremy Allaire, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Brightcove. "Brightcove continues to expand its market share leadership position, and we believe the company is well positioned at the center of multiple powerful growth trends — video, mobile, cloud and social."

Allaire added, "This is a major milestone for our company that helps expand awareness that companies of all sizes and across verticals are increasingly adopting online video platforms and launching mobile content applications. With the proceeds from our IPO, we have greater resources to execute our growth strategy and expand our market leadership position."

First Quarter 2012 Financial Highlights:

Revenue: Total revenue for the first quarter of 2012 was $19.9 million, an increase of 53% compared to $13.1 million for the first quarter of 2011. Subscription and support revenue was $18.8 million, an increase of 51% compared with $12.5 million for the first quarter of 2011. Professional services and other revenue was $1.1 million, an increase of 90% compared to $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2011.

Gross Profit: Gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 was $13.6 million, compared to $8.7 million for the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP gross profit for the first quarter of 2012 was $13.6 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 56% and a non-GAAP gross margin of 68%.

Operating Loss: Loss from operations was $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2012, compared to a loss of $4.4 million for the first quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP loss from operations, which excludes stock-based compensation expense, was $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2012, an improvement compared to a non-GAAP loss of $3.4 million during the first quarter of 2011.

Net Loss: Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $4.3 million, or $0.27 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012. This compares to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $5.8 million, or $1.22 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders, which excludes stock-based compensation expense and the accretion of dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock, was $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2012, or $0.17 per basic and diluted share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2011, or $0.72 per basic and diluted share.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow: As of March 31, 2012, Brightcove had $60.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, an increase from $17.2 million at December 31, 2011. The increase in cash was due to the company's initial public offering, which generated net proceeds of $54.6 million. Net proceeds from the company's initial public offering are net of related costs of $4.2 million, of which $2.3 million were paid during fiscal 2011. The Company used $7.0 million of the net proceeds to pay down outstanding debt.

Brightcove used $2.8 million in cash from operations and invested $3.7 million in capital expenditures, leading to the use of free cash flow of ($6.5) million for the first quarter of 2012. Free cash flow was ($4.3) million for the first quarter of 2011.

A Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP results has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Brightcove has provided in this release the non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP basic and diluted net loss per share. Brightcove uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Brightcove's ongoing operational performance. Brightcove believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other companies in Brightcove's industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. As noted, the non-GAAP financial results discussed above exclude stock-based compensation expense and the accretion of dividends on redeemable convertible preferred stock.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As previously mentioned, a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release. The Company's earnings press releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can be found on the Investors section of the Company's web site at http://www.brightcove.com.
