AUSTIN, Texas, May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Asure Software, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, “Asure” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ASUR), a leading provider of cloud-based Human Capital Management (“HCM”) software solutions, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights

• Revenue of $31.7 million, down 4% year over year
• Revenue (excluding ERTC revenue) of $30.7 million, up 10% from $28.0 million in the prior year
• Recurring revenue of $30.3 million, up 8% year over year
• Recurring revenue excluding ERTC recurring revenue of zero, up 9% from $27.7 million in the prior year
• Net loss of $0.3 million versus a net income of $0.3 million during the prior year
• EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $4.4 million versus $ 6.8 million from prior year
• Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $6.8 million versus $8.2 million from prior year
• Gross profit of $22.6 million versus $24.4 million from prior year
• Non-GAAP gross profit⁽¹⁾ of $23.8 million (Non-GAAP gross margin⁽¹⁾ of 75%) versus $25.7 million (and 78% in prior year)
  

Recent Business Highlights

• Launched best-in-class employee self-service and role-based identity access to remove administrative burden for small business owners and empower their employees to better manage their own data. These releases are part of an architecture modernization strategy to improve scalability and lower cost to serve for Asure’s HCM suite.
• Went live with first Workday client, a Major League Baseball (MLB) team, following certification of Workday’s Global Payroll integration with Asure’s Payroll Tax Platform. This MLB team epitomizes the complexity of multi-state payroll as highly compensated staff and team members incur payroll tax liabilities in several states each week. This marquee client opens the door to many more Workday opportunities.
• Announced new employer tax credit service, delivered by partner HR Logics, to provide Asure’s small business clients with much needed capital. Most small business owners are unaware of the number of employer tax credits available such as Work Opportunity Tax Credits (WOTC), Research & Development, and Veterans tax credits.
• Embedded new AI Agent into enterprise Payroll Tax Management (PTM) platform. Amazon’s continued partnership with Asure, as part of the AWS Application Modernization Lab, has accelerated AI efforts to gain deeper insights, better understand user sentiment, and deliver unmatched payroll tax management services.

Management Commentary

Asure Chairman and CEO Pat Goepel commented, “We continue to execute our growth strategy and are pleased to have delivered another solid performance for the first quarter of 2024.”

“We’ve nearly doubled the company in terms of revenues since 2020 and believe the introduction of new products like 401(k) and new technology developed with AWS will accelerate our recurring revenue growth in 2024. While the one-time revenue associated with ERTC in 2023 may have masked our underlying growth story, we have a strong recurring revenue business that continues to grow every year.”

Second Quarter 2024 and Full Year 2024 Revenue Guidance Ranges

The Company is providing the following guidance for the second quarter 2024 and full year 2024 based on the Company’s year-to-date results and recent business trends. This guidance excludes any potential revenues from the employee retention tax credit (ERTC) program for which the IRS placed a pause on processing claims in September 2023, and we continue to monitor for updates regarding the program closely.

Guidance for 2024

Guidance Range		Q2-2024		FY-2024
Revenue	$	28.0M – 29.0M	$	125.0 M -129.0 M
Adjusted EBITDA(1)	$	4.0M -5.0M		20% -21%

Management uses GAAP, non-GAAP and adjusted measures when planning, monitoring, and evaluating the Company’s performance. The primary purpose of using non-GAAP and adjusted measures are to provide supplemental information that may prove useful to investors and to enable investors to evaluate the Company’s results in the same way management does.

Management believes that supplementing GAAP disclosures with non-GAAP and adjusted disclosures provides investors with a more complete view of the Company’s operational performance and allows for meaningful period-to-period comparisons and analysis of trends in the Company’s business. Further, to the extent that other companies use similar methods in calculating adjusted financial measures, the provision of supplemental non-GAAP and adjusted information can allow for a comparison of the Company’s relative performance against other companies that also report non-GAAP and adjusted operating results.

Management has not provided a reconciliation of guidance of GAAP to non-GAAP or adjusted disclosures because management is unable to predict the nature and materiality of non-recurring expenses without unreasonable effort.

Management’s projections are based on management’s current beliefs and assumptions about the Company's business, and the industry and the markets in which it operates; there are known and unknown risks and uncertainties associated with these projections. There can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ from the guidance set forth above. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, including its 2024 earnings guidance, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Please refer to the “Use of Forward-Looking Statements” disclosures on page 5 of this press release as well as the risk factors in our quarterly and annual reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information about risk that affect our business and industry.

⁽¹⁾This financial measure is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and is defined on page 3 of this press release. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most applicable GAAP measure begins on page 11 of this release.

Non-GAAP and Adjusted Financial Measures

This press release includes information about non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP sales and marketing expense, non-GAAP general and administrative expense, non-GAAP research and development expense, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin. These non-GAAP and adjusted financial measures are measurements of financial performance that are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and computational methods may differ from those used by other companies. Non-GAAP and adjusted financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP and adjusted financial measures are reconciled to GAAP in the tables set forth in this release and are subject to reclassifications to conform to current period presentations.

Non-GAAP gross profit differs from gross profit in that it excludes amortization, share-based compensation, and one-time items.

Non-GAAP sales and marketing expense differs from sales and marketing expense in that it excludes share-based compensation and one-time items.

Non-GAAP general and administrative expense differs from general and administrative expense in that it excludes share-based compensation and one-time items.

Non-GAAP research and development expense differs from research and development expense in that it excludes share-based compensation and one-time items.

EBITDA differs from net income (loss) in that it excludes items such as interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Asure is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort.

Adjusted EBITDA differs from EBITDA in that it excludes share-based compensation, other income (expense), net and one-time expenses. Asure is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of these exclusions without unreasonable effort.

All adjusted and non-GAAP measures presented as “margin” are computed by dividing the applicable adjusted financial measure by total revenue.

Specifically, as applicable to the respective financial measure, management is adjusting for the following items when calculating non-GAAP and adjusted financial measures as applicable for the periods presented. No additional adjustments have been made for potential income tax effects of the adjustments based on the Company’s current and anticipated de minimis effective federal tax rate, resulting from the Company’s continued losses for federal tax purposes and its tax net operating loss balances.

Share-Based Compensation Expenses. The Company’s compensation strategy includes the use of share-based compensation to attract and retain employees and executives. It is principally aimed at aligning their interests with those of our stockholders and at long-term employee retention, rather than to motivate or reward operational performance for any particular period. Thus, share-based compensation expense varies for reasons that are generally unrelated to operational decisions and performance in any particular period.

Depreciation. The Company excludes depreciation of fixed assets. Also included in the expense is the depreciation of capitalized software costs.

Amortization of Purchased Intangibles. The Company views amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company’s research and development efforts, trade names, customer lists and customer relationships, and acquired lease intangibles, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense, one that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.

Interest Expense, Net. The Company excludes accrued interest expense, the amortization of debt discounts and deferred financing costs.

Income Taxes. The Company excludes income taxes, both at the federal and state levels.

One-Time Expenses. The Company’s adjusted financial measures exclude the following costs to normalize comparable reporting periods, as these are generally non-recurring expenses that do not reflect the ongoing operational results. These items are typically not budgeted and are infrequent and unusual in nature.

Settlements, Penalties and Interest. The Company excludes legal settlements, including separation agreements, penalties and interest that are generally one-time in nature and not reflective of the operational results of the business.

Acquisition and Transaction Related Costs. The Company excludes these expenses as they are transaction costs and expenses that are generally one-time in nature and not reflective of the underlying operational results of our business. Examples of these types of expenses include legal, accounting, regulatory, other consulting services, severance and other employee costs.

Other non-recurring Expenses. The Company excludes these as they are generally non-recurring items that are not reflective of the underlying operational results of the business and are generally not anticipated to recur. Some examples of these types of expenses, historically, have included write-offs or impairments of assets, demolition of office space and cybersecurity consultants.

Other (Expense) Income, Net. The Company’s adjusted financial measures exclude Other (Expense) Income, Net because it includes items that are not reflective of the underlying operational results of the business, such as loan forgiveness, adjustments to contingent liabilities and credits earned as part of the CARES Act, passed by Congress in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
