Innodata Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results; Record 66% Revenue Growth Year-Over-Year

 

NEW YORK – August 8, 2024 – INNODATA INC. (Nasdaq: INOD) today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

 

· Revenue of $32.6 million, an increase of 66% year-over-year.

 

· Earnings per basic and diluted share of $0.00, which includes the impact of recruitment costs of $3.6 million, compared to a net loss of $(0.8) million, or $(0.03) per basic and diluted share, in the same period last year.

 

· Adjusted EBITDA of $2.8 million, an increase of 76% year-over-year.*

 

· Won new Large Language Model (LLM) development programs and expansions for a Big Tech customer valued at approximately $87.5 million in annualized run rate revenue.

 

· Notable new customer wins and expectations of others.

 

· Raise guidance to 60% or more revenue growth in 2024.

   

*  Adjusted EBITDA is defined below.

 

Jack Abuhoff, CEO, said, “Innodata delivered another outstanding quarter, highlighted by record revenue growth of 66% year-over-year. During the quarter, we significantly expanded our partnership with a Big Tech customer while also gaining traction with others. We take great pride in the foundation we have built to establish Innodata as a leading partner of choice to deliver reliable, complex generative AI training data. We believe we are uniquely positioned to capture the enormous market opportunity and drive value for shareholders. Given the strong organic growth we are seeing, we are raising our 2024 full-year revenue growth guidance to 60% or more.

 

“Our gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin were down sequentially as a result of incurring $3.6 million of recruiting agency fees we incurred in the quarter to scale our operations in anticipation of significant 2H revenue growth. We recorded these costs as direct operating expenses in Q2.  However, we expect that our recruiting costs will reduce to approximately $300,000 in Q3. As a result of significantly lower recruiting costs, together with expected operating leverage from growth, we expect Adjusted EBITDA in Q3 to be approximately triple Q2 Adjusted EBITDA.”

 

Big Tech Customer Program Expansions

 

On June 3, 2024, Innodata announced it was awarded two new LLM development programs by one of its existing "Magnificent Seven" Big Tech customers. These programs are expected to deliver approximately $44 million of annualized run rate revenue and represents the single largest customer win in Innodata’s history. These awards are in addition to the new programs and program expansion with this customer announced on April 24, 2024, and May 7, 2024. In the one year that Innodata has been working with this customer, Innodata has landed new programs and program expansions that bring the total value of the account to approximately $110.5 million of annualized run rate revenue. Innodata aspires to replicate this success across the six other Big Tech customers already contracted for generative AI development and to land additional Big Tech accounts.

 

 


Growing Customer Base

 

In addition, the Company won several new engagements in the second quarter and expects to land several others in the near future. Some notables include a Big Tech company that would be a new customer – it is one of the most valuable companies in the world and one of the companies most often talked about in connection with generative AI. Another is with an existing Big Tech customer. In connection with this opportunity Innodata would aim to become certified to work on their premises. Being collocated with their engineering and operations teams would potentially enable Innodata to access new attractive opportunities. Innodata also expects to shortly sign a prominent social media platform that is building its own generative AI models and would be a new customer for Innodata.

 

Another noteworthy win was with a clinical provider in the healthcare market. While the Company’s Synodex platform has historically been used as a tool for supporting insurance underwriting, the Company has developed new technology that enables the platform to be utilized for certain clinical use cases. Innodata was also recently awarded a deal to provide news briefs and media monitoring to a federal government agency that will be leveraging the new generative AI capabilities built into Innodata’s Agility platform. Innodata is seeking to expand into the public sector, so it considers this a strategic win.

 

Strong Balance Sheet to Support Growth

 

Innodata continues to maintain a healthy balance sheet and remains in a solid financial position. As of June 30, 2024, cash balances were $16.5 million, up from $13.8 million at the end of 2023.

 

As Innodata continues to invest in growth, the Company has increased its receivables-based credit facility with Wells Fargo from $10 million to $30 million, subject to a borrowing base limitation, with an accordion feature that enables it to expand to up to $50 million subject to the approval of Wells Fargo. Innodata has also filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to establish a universal shelf which, once declared effective by the SEC, would allow Innodata to sell up to an aggregate of $50 million of securities in registered offerings. Innodata believes this will preserve the flexibility to raise capital from time to time, if needed. The Company has no specific plans to raise money, and the uses of net proceeds from any such offering would be set forth in a prospectus supplement.

 

Amounts in this press release have been rounded. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the results referred to in the forward-looking statements will occur, and you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

In addition to the financial information prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP (“GAAP”), we provide certain non-GAAP financial information. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in making comparisons of period-to-period operating results. In some respects, management believes non-GAAP financial measures are more indicative of our ongoing core operating performance than their GAAP equivalents by making adjustments that management believes are reflective of the ongoing performance of the business.

 

We believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information provides investors with greater transparency by providing investors a more complete understanding of our financial performance, competitive position, and prospects for the future, particularly by providing the same information that management and our Board of Directors use to evaluate our performance and manage the business. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release have certain limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures that we present may differ from similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Innodata Inc. and its subsidiaries in accordance with U.S. GAAP before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets (which derives EBITDA), plus additional adjustments for loss on impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, non-recurring severance, and other one-time costs.

 

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate core results of operations and trends between fiscal periods and believe that these measures are important components of our internal performance measurement process.

 

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the tables that accompany this release.
