News Release


AppFolio, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Financial Results

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., November 7, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AppFolio, Inc. (NASDAQ: APPF), a leading provider of cloud-based business software solutions, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Third Quarter 2016 Highlights

Third quarter revenue was $28.2 million, an increase of 39% period-over-period.
Third quarter GAAP net loss was $1.1 million, or a net loss of $0.03 per share; Non-GAAP net income was $0.2 million, or $0.00 per share.
Increased property manager customers 27% year-over-year to 9,612; increased units under management 26% year-over-year to 2.5 million.
Increased law firm customers 40% year-over-year to 7,799.

The Company generated approximately $2.3 million in cash from operating activities and reported $2.7 million in Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2016. At September 30, 2016, the Company had $49.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and investment securities.

“We are pleased with our results in the quarter, achieving strong revenue, increasing units under management and continuing to realize operating leverage," commented Brian Donahoo, President and CEO of AppFolio.  "During the quarter we hosted over 700 property manager customers at our Fourth Annual Customer Conference for three days of industry education, networking events, and hands-on product demonstrations and feedback sessions with AppFolio experts. We also announced two new product offerings for our Property Managers customers, including Collections and Revenue Management, which will enhance our platform and further highlight our commitment to helping our customers successfully manage and grow their businesses and expand our market opportunity.” 

Financial Outlook

Based on information available as of November 7, 2016, we are updating our outlook for full year 2016 as indicated below.
Full year revenue is expected to be in the range of $104.0 million to $105.0 million.

Weighted average common shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 33.6 million for the full year.






Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, we provide investors with certain Non-GAAP financial measures, including Non-GAAP net loss, Non-GAAP net loss per share, and Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA which are financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share are defined as net loss and net loss per share, respectively, attributable to common stockholders before stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBTIDA is defined as GAAP net loss before depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, provision for income taxes, other income (expense), net, and interest income (expense), net.

We use these Non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial statements. These financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these financial measures may be different from Non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness for comparison purposes. A reconciliation of the Non-GAAP financial measures to the most direct comparable GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

We urge investors to review these reconciliations and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Conference Call Information
As previously announced, we will host a conference call today, November 7, 2016, to discuss our third quarter financial results at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time, 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. A live webcast of the conference call will be available at http://ir.appfolioinc.com. The conference call can also be accessed by dialing 844-239-5286 (Domestic), or 513-268-0783 (International).
