Financial Outlook

The company expects ongoing new business bookings momentum in fiscal 2026. This underpins the company's guidance, which reflects revenue growth acceleration during fiscal 2026.

Taking into account the anticipated final churn on the Qubit platform, the revenue guidance below infers that growth in Coveo's core SaaS Subscription revenue will be ~14% in Q1 of fiscal year 2026 and between 15-17% during the complete fiscal year 2026.

In light of the company's growth outlook and improved operational efficiency, Coveo is making select strategic investments in innovation and go-to-market initiatives, aimed at further accelerating our growth rates. At the same time, it remains committed to operational rigor, maintaining strong unit economics, and sustaining positive operating cash flows.

Considering these factors, Coveo anticipates SaaS Subscription Revenue⁽¹⁾, Total Revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA⁽⁴⁾ for Q1 FY26 and fiscal year 2026 as follows:

 

The company expects to continue to deliver positive operating cash flows based on the above guidance of approximately $10 million for fiscal year 2026.

These statements are forward-looking and actual results may differ materially. Coveo's outlook constitutes "financial outlook" within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is provided for the purpose of, among other things, assisting investors and others in understanding certain key elements of our expected financial results, as well as our objectives, strategic priorities and business outlook, and in obtaining a better understanding of our anticipated operating environment. Investors and others are cautioned that it may not be appropriate for other purposes. Please refer to the "Forward-Looking Information" and "Financial Outlook Assumptions" sections below for additional information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements and a description of the assumptions underlying same.

Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios

Coveo's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The information presented in this press release includes non-IFRS financial measures and ratios, namely (i) Adjusted EBITDA; (ii) Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Product Gross Profit, and Adjusted Professional Services Gross Profit (collectively referred to as our "Adjusted Gross Profit Measures"); (iii) Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Product Gross Margin, and Adjusted Professional Services Gross Margin (collectively referred to as our "Adjusted Gross Margin Measures"); (iv) Adjusted Sales and Marketing Expenses, Adjusted Research and Product Development Expenses, and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses (collectively referred to as our "Adjusted Operating Expense Measures"); (v) Adjusted Sales and Marketing Expenses (%), Adjusted Research and Product Development Expenses (%), and Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses (%) (collectively referred to as our "Adjusted Operating Expense (%) Measures"), and (vi) SaaS Subscription Revenue in Coveo Core Platform at constant currency and constant days, including as a growth ratio (the "Constant Currency Measure/Ratio"). These measures and ratios are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures and ratios are provided as additional information to complement IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the company's results of operations from management's perspective.

Accordingly, these measures and ratios should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the company's financial information reported under IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA, the Adjusted Gross Profit Measures, the Adjusted Gross Margin Measures, the Adjusted Operating Expense Measures, the Adjusted Operating Expense (%) Measures and the Constant Currency Measure/Ratio are used to provide investors with supplemental measures and ratios of the company's operating performance and thus highlight trends in Coveo's core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures and ratios. The company's management also believes that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS financial measures and ratios in the evaluation of issuers. Coveo's management uses non-IFRS financial measures and ratios in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, and to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts.

See the "Non-IFRS Measures" section of our MD&A for the quarter and full-year ended March 31, 2025, which is available as of the date hereof under our profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca for a description of these measures (except for the Constant Currency Measure/Ratio, which is defined in the tables appended to this press release). Please refer to the financial tables appended to this press release for additional information including a reconciliation of (i) Adjusted EBITDA to net loss; (ii) Adjusted Gross Profit to gross profit; (iii) Adjusted Product Gross Profit to product gross profit; (iv) Adjusted Professional Services Gross Profit to professional services gross profit; (v) Adjusted Sales and Marketing Expenses to sales and marketing expenses; (vi) Adjusted Research and Product Development Expenses to research and product development expenses; (vii) Adjusted General and Administrative Expenses to general and administrative expenses, and (viii) SaaS Subscription Revenue in Coveo Core Platform at constant currency and constant days to SaaS Subscription Revenue.

Key Performance Indicators

This press release refers to "SaaS Subscription Revenue" and "Net Expansion Rate". They are operating metrics used in Coveo's industry. We monitor our key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions. Our key performance indicators provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. Certain of our key performance indicators are measures that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and cannot be reconciled to a directly comparable IFRS measure. Our key performance indicators may be calculated and designated in a manner different than similar key performance indicators used by other companies.

"SaaS Subscription Revenue" means the company's SaaS subscription revenue, as presented in our financial statements in accordance with IFRS.

"Net Expansion Rate" is calculated by considering a cohort of customers at the end of the period 12 months prior to the end of the period selected and dividing the SaaS Annualized Contract Value ("SaaS ACV", as defined below) attributable to that cohort at the end of the current period selected, by the SaaS ACV attributable to that cohort at the beginning of the period 12 months prior to the end of the period selected. Expressed as a percentage, the ratio (i) excludes any SaaS ACV from new customers added during the 12 months preceding the end of the period selected; (ii) includes incremental SaaS ACV made to the cohort over the 12 months preceding the end of the period selected; (iii) is net of the SaaS ACV from any customers whose subscriptions terminated or decreased over the 12 months preceding the end of the period selected; and (iv) is currency neutral and as such, excludes the effect of currency variation.

In this section and throughout this press release, "SaaS Annualized Contract Value" means the SaaS annualized contract value of a customer's commitments calculated based on the terms of that customer's subscriptions, and represents the committed annualized subscription amount as of the measurement date.

Please also refer to the "Key Performance Indicators" section of our latest MD&A, which is available under our profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, for additional details on the abovementioned key performance indicators. For greater certainty, for purposes of this press release, a "booking" is a binding commitment by a customer to purchase a Coveo solution. Bookings reflect annualized committed revenue under binding agreements and include transactions with new customers and increased or expanded usage of our solutions by existing customers.

The following table presents share-based payments and related expenses recognized by the company:

 

Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA
(expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars)

 

Reconciliation of Adjusted Gross Profit Measures and Adjusted Gross Margin Measures
(expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars)

 

Reconciliation of Adjusted Operating Expense Measures and Adjusted Operating Expense (%) Measures

Reconciliation of SaaS Subscription Revenue and SaaS Subscription Revenue at Constant Currency and Constant Days of the Coveo core Platform

In this table, SaaS Subscription Revenue in currencies other than US dollars are converted into US dollars using the exchange rates from the prior period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. Furthermore, SaaS Subscription Revenue of the Coveo core Platform for the current period is adjusted to add the Additional SaaS Subscription Revenue Day, as the prior period had one more full day of SaaS Subscription Revenue recognition as a result of calendar year 2024 being a leap year with 366 days.

"Additional SaaS Subscription Revenue Day" means an amount equal to the SaaS Subscription Revenue of the Coveo core platform for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, divided by the number of days in the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, and multiplied by the number of days in comparative period of fiscal year 2024.

"SaaS Subscription Revenue in Coveo Core Platform at constant currency and constant days" means the SaaS Subscription Revenue of the Company earned in connection with subscriptions by customers to the Coveo core Platform for the period, and thus excluding revenue from subscriptions to the Qubit Platform, adjusted for the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations and to reflect the Additional SaaS Subscription Revenue Day.
