Company's Q2 SaaS Adjusted EBITDA exceeds guidance range by $5 million
Full Year 2023 SaaS Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance raised
Launches free, industry-first offering, Thryv Command Center, to drive product-led growth strategy

DALLAS, August 03, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Thryv Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:THRY) ("Thryv" or the "Company"), the provider of Thryv®, the leading small business software platform, reported SaaS revenue growth of 20% year-over-year in the second quarter of 2023, while SaaS EBITDA margins expanded to 10%.

"We delivered solid second quarter results," said Joe Walsh, Chairman and CEO. "We have been focused on driving profitable SaaS growth - and we have a strong operating framework in place for this to continue. Our consistent, profitable SaaS growth is the result of leveraging our sales channels. We also continue to demonstrate that our traditional sales channels, selling SaaS to our existing Marketing Services customers, and our client referral initiatives, drive significant margin expansion and profitability. Together, this has improved our SaaS EBITDA margins by 10% sequentially."

"We are continuing the evolution of our Thryv platform and are laser-focused on delivering solutions that solve problems that small businesses face," Walsh continued. "We have released a beta version of Thryv Command Center, an industry-first offering that will be a core element to our product-led growth initiative. Thryv Command Center can be downloaded for free to all small business users, and they can upgrade to a more powerful and advanced paid version as their needs warrant. Thryv Command Center centralizes all communication, from email to text to phone and video, into one inbox. With all of our centers, users can upgrade as they are ready. We are excited about this new center, which reinforces our commitment to innovation and layers a product-led growth onto our sales-led motion."

With this launch, the Thryv platform has been re-architected, providing small business owners a modular, easily expandable and customizable user experience that meets their needs. It creates a strong new customer acquisition channel and a clear path to sustained Net Dollar Retention improvement. This launch continues the roll out of new centers, such as the recently announced Marketing Center.

"As we continue to advance our strategy and look to the rest of 2023, we are raising our full-year guidance for SaaS revenue and EBITDA," said Paul Rouse, Chief Financial Officer. "We are pleased with our results this quarter. We believe we have a sound strategy for accelerating profitable growth in the SaaS business for the balance of the year and into the future."

Non-GAAP Measures

Our results included in this press release include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted Gross Profit, which are not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and 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. Please refer to the supplemental information presented in the tables below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income and Adjusted Gross Profit to Gross profit. Both Net income and Gross profit are the most comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We believe that these measures provide additional tools for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry. However, it is important to note that the particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained herein are not historical facts, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Statements that include the words "may", "will", "could", "should", "would", "believe", "anticipate", "forecast", "estimate", "expect", "preliminary", "intend", "plan", "target", "project", "outlook", "future", "forward", "guidance" and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, the risks related to the following: risks related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity to fund operations; the Company’s future operating and financial performance; the Company’s ability to consummate acquisitions, or, if consummated, to successfully integrate acquired businesses into the Company’s operations, the Company’s ability to recognize the benefits of acquisitions, or the failure of an acquired company to achieve its plans and objectives; limitations on our operating and strategic flexibility and the ability to operate our business, finance our capital needs or expand business strategies under the terms of our credit facilities; our ability to retain existing business and obtain and retain new business; general economic or business conditions affecting the markets we serve; declining use of print yellow page directories by consumers; our ability to collect trade receivables from clients to whom we extend credit; credit risk associated with our reliance on small and medium sized businesses as clients; our ability to attract and retain key managers; increased competition in our markets; our ability to obtain future financing due to changes in the lending markets or our financial position; our ability to maintain agreements with major Internet search and local media companies; reduced advertising spending and increased contract cancellations by our clients, which causes reduced revenue; and our ability to anticipate or respond effectively to changes in technology and consumer preferences as well as the risks and uncertainties set forth in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on From 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by such cautionary statements.

If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. For these reasons, we caution you against relying on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof and, other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
