Brightcove Announces Financial Results for Third Quarter 2016

Company reports third quarter revenue of $38.4 million, up 13% year-over-year

BOSTON, MA (November 2, 2016) – Brightcove Inc. (NASDAQ: BCOV), a leading global provider of cloud services for video, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2016.

“Brightcove delivered solid third quarter results that met or exceeded our expectations from both a revenue and profitability perspective,” said David Mendels, Chief Executive Officer of Brightcove. “We continue to make good progress against our go-to-market strategy in both our digital marketing and media segments, which is driving our improved business performance.”

Mendels continued, “From a product perspective, we are working hard to deliver even greater value to both our digital marketing and media customers by making significant enhancements and additions to our product portfolio.  We are particularly excited about the release of our new dynamic delivery platform over the coming quarters as well as the introduction of our new Brightcove Social product, which is being released in the next two weeks. While we still need to close out the year strong, we believe that our innovation across our product portfolio will continue to separate us from the competition and will drive further adoption of our products."

Mendels concluded, “Finally, I’m pleased to announce an organizational change within Brightcove. We have named Andy Feinberg as Brightcove's President and Chief Operating Officer.   Andy will now be responsible for both of our business units and all of our customer-facing operations, globally. For the past year Andy has served as our President of International Operations and, together with his teams, has been a driving force behind our strong international growth over this past year. We believe his talents can be leveraged even further worldwide.”

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 income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP diluted net income (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 of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP diluted net income (loss) per share exclude stock-based compensation expense, the amortization of acquired intangible assets and merger-related expenses. The non-GAAP financial results discussed above of adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net income (loss), plus stock-based compensation expense, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, merger-related expenses, depreciation expense, other income/expense, including interest expense and interest income, and the provision for income taxes. Merger-related expenses 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.
