Second quarter revenue of $31.0 million up 15% year-over-year

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Brightcove Inc. (Nasdaq: BCOV), a leading global provider of cloud services for video, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.

"Brightcove delivered second quarter results that exceeded our expectations from both a revenue and profitability perspective, and was highlighted by a significant sequential improvement in our monthly revenue retention rate," said David Mendels, Chief Executive Officer of Brightcove. "During the second quarter we also experienced slower than expected progress on large deal opportunities and certain customer implementations. When combined with the fact that we now expect a large customer with an uncommon use case to churn in the third quarter, we have adjusted our full year outlook in response."

Mendels added "We remain confident in our strategy and in the very meaningful market opportunity in front of us. We believe our recent and upcoming product innovations, including Gallery and the Video Marketing Suite, combined with shifting our go-to-market focus towards enabling better business results for both media companies and digital marketers, better position Brightcove to generate improved long-term growth."

Net Loss: Net loss was $4.3 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014. This compares to a net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.12 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter of 2013.

Business Outlook

Based on information as of today, July 24, 2014, the Company is issuing the following financial guidance:

Third Quarter 2014*: The Company expects revenue to be $30.0 million to $30.5 million, and non-GAAP loss from operations to be $2.2 million to $2.5 million. Assuming approximately 32.3 million shares outstanding, Brightcove expects its non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share to be $0.08 to $0.09.

Full Year 2014*: The Company now expects revenue to be $122.0 million to $123.5 million, and non-GAAP loss from operations is expected to be $6.5 million to $7.5 million. Assuming approximately 32 million shares outstanding, Brightcove expects its non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted share to be $0.24 to $0.28.

*With respect to the Company's expectations under "Business Outlook" above, the Company has not reconciled non-GAAP loss from operations or non-GAAP net loss per share to GAAP loss from operations and GAAP net loss per share, respectively, because the Company does not provide guidance for stock-based compensation expense, merger-related expenses, or amortization of acquired intangible assets, which are reconciling items between those Non-GAAP and GAAP measures. As the items that impact GAAP loss from operations and GAAP net loss per share are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, the Company is unable to provide such guidance. Accordingly, a reconciliation to GAAP loss from operations and GAAP net loss per share is not available without unreasonable effort.

These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts and statements identified by words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates" or words of similar meaning.

Although we believe that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects as reflected in or suggested by those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that the plans, intentions, expectations or strategies will be attained or achieved. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and will be affected by a variety of risks and factors that are beyond our control including, without limitation, our ability to retain existing customers; difficulties integrating the technologies, products, operations, existing contracts and personnel of Unicorn Media and realizing the anticipated benefits of the combined business; difficulties executing on our go-to-market strategy and realizing the anticipated benefits of this strategy; expectations regarding the widespread adoption of customer demand for our products, including recently launched products; our ability to expand the sales of our products to customers located outside the U.S., keeping up with the rapid technological change required to remain competitive in our industry; our history of losses, our limited operating history; our ability to manage our growth effectively and successfully recruit additional highly-qualified personnel; and the price volatility of our common stock, and other risks set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other SEC filings.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Brightcove has provided in this release the non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, 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, amortization of acquired intangible assets and merger-related costs. Merger-related costs include fees incurred in connection with closing an acquisition in addition to fees associated with the retention of key employees. 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.
