Weave Announces First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

First quarter total revenue of $47.2 million, up 19.2% year over year
GAAP gross margin of 69.9%, up 280 basis points year over year
Non GAAP gross margin of 70.4%, up 280 basis points year over year

LEHI, Utah—May 1, 2024 – Weave (NYSE: WEAV), a leading all-in-one customer experience and payments software platform for small and medium-sized healthcare businesses, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“Weave delivered another terrific quarter, providing a strong start to the year with solid top-line performance and significant improvements in gross and operating margin and adjusted EBITDA. Achieving greater than 70% non-GAAP gross margin for the first time is a significant milestone for Weave,” said CEO Brett White. “These results underscore the market’s demand for our vertically tailored software and payments platform and our continued efforts to improve efficiency.”
First Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights
•    Total revenue was $47.2 million, representing a 19.2% year-over-year increase compared to $39.6 million in the first quarter of 2023.
•    GAAP gross margin was 69.9%, compared to a GAAP gross margin of 67.1% in the first quarter of 2023.    
•    Non-GAAP gross margin was 70.4%, compared to a non-GAAP gross margin of 67.6% in the first quarter of 2023.        
•    GAAP loss from operations was $8.2 million, compared to a GAAP loss from operations of $8.5 million in the first quarter of 2023.
•    Non-GAAP loss from operations was $1.4 million, compared to a non-GAAP loss from operations of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2023.
•    GAAP net loss was $7.2 million, or $0.10 per share, compared to a GAAP net loss of $7.9 million, or $0.12 per share, in the first quarter of 2023.
•    Non-GAAP net loss was $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a non-GAAP net loss of $3.3 million, or $0.05 per share, in the first quarter of 2023.
•    Net cash used in operating activities was $19.7 million, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2023.
•    Free cash flow was negative $20.5 million, a $21.1 million decrease from positive free cash flow of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease is the result of the timing of two items and is expected to normalize within the first half of 2024. First, in the first quarter of 2024 we implemented a new billing system that necessitated deferring March subscription billings into April. This resulted in an increase in March accounts receivable, and a corresponding decrease in free cash flow, of approximately $15 million. Second, in the first quarter, we paid out our annual employee bonuses, which amounted to approximately $7 million. In prior years, annual bonuses were paid out in the second quarter. Excluding the impact of both the delay in billing and the timing difference of the bonus pay out, free cash flow would have been positive for the first quarter of 2024.

Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate (NRR) was 96% as of March 31, 2024.

•    Dollar-Based Gross Retention Rate (GRR) was 92% as of March 31, 2024.

The guidance provided above constitutes forward-looking statements and actual results may differ materially. Refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” safe harbor section below for information on the factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements.
Non-GAAP loss from operations excludes estimates for, among other things, stock-based compensation expense. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial guidance measure to a corresponding GAAP financial guidance measure is not available on a forward-looking basis because we do not provide guidance on GAAP net loss from operations and are not able to present the various reconciling cash and non-cash items between GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP loss from operations without unreasonable effort. In particular, stock-based compensation expense is impacted by our future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of our common stock, all of which is difficult to

predict and is subject to change. The actual amount of these expenses during 2024 will have a significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Supplemental Financial Information
Dollar-Based Net Revenue Retention (NRR)
For retention rate calculations, we use adjusted monthly revenue (AMR), which is calculated for each location as the sum of (i) the subscription component of revenue for each month and (ii) the average of the trailing-three-month recurring payments revenue. To calculate our NRR, we first identify the cohort of locations (the Base Locations) that were active in a particular month (the Base Month). We then divide AMR for the Base Locations in the same month of the subsequent year (the Comparison Month), by AMR in the Base Month to derive a monthly NRR. We derive our annual NRR as of any date by taking a weighted average of the monthly net retention rates over the trailing twelve months prior to such date.
Dollar-Based Gross Revenue Retention (GRR)
To calculate our GRR, we first identify the cohort of locations (the Base Locations) that were under subscription in a particular month (the Base Month). We then calculate the effect of reductions in revenue from customer location terminations by measuring the amount of AMR in the Base Month for Base Locations still under subscription twelve months subsequent to the Base Month (Remaining AMR). We then divide Remaining AMR for the Base Locations by AMR in the Base Month for the Base Locations to derive a monthly gross retention rate. We calculate GRR as of any date by taking a weighted average of the monthly gross retention rates over the trailing twelve months prior to such date. GRR reflects the effect of customer locations that terminate their subscriptions, but does not reflect changes in revenue due to revenue expansion, revenue contraction, or addition of new customer locations.
Number of Locations

We measure locations as the total number of customer locations under subscription active on the Weave platform as of the end of each month. A single organization or customer with multiple divisions, segments, offices or subsidiaries is counted as multiple locations if they have entered into subscriptions for each location.

As a reminder, we only provide customer location information on an annual basis with annual and fourth quarter results and do not provide this information with financial statements or earnings releases covering interim periods.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, Weave Communications has provided financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). We disclose the following historical non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss margin, non-GAAP net loss per share, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP loss from operations margin, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to analyze our financial results and evaluate our ongoing operational performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in understanding and evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in the same manner as our management and board of directors. Our use of these non-GAAP financial measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider these non-GAAP financial measures along with other GAAP-based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, operating income (loss), net income (loss), and our GAAP financial results. We have provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures in the tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.
Non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss margin and non-GAAP net loss per share
4


We define non-GAAP net loss as GAAP net loss adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, and non-GAAP net loss margin as non-GAAP net loss as a percentage of revenue. Non-GAAP net loss per share is calculated as non-GAAP net loss divided by the diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.
Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin
We define non-GAAP gross profit as GAAP gross profit adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, and non-GAAP gross margin as non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
Non-GAAP operating expenses
We define non-GAAP operating expenses, in the aggregate or its individual components (i.e., sales and marketing, research and development or general and administrative), as the applicable GAAP operating expenses adjusted to exclude the applicable stock-based compensation expense.
Non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP loss from operations margin
We define non-GAAP loss from operations as GAAP loss from operations less stock-based compensation expense, and non-GAAP loss from operations margin as non-GAAP loss from operations as a percentage of revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define EBITDA as earnings before interest expense, interest income, other income/expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Our depreciation adjustment includes depreciation on operating fixed assets and we do not adjust for amortization of finance lease right-of-use assets on phone hardware provided to our customers. We further adjust EBITDA to exclude stock-based compensation expense, a non-cash item. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations. Additionally, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to measure our financial and operational performance and prepare our budgets.
Free cash flow
We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software costs. We believe that free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides useful information to management and investors, even if negative, as it provides information about the amount of cash consumed by our combined operating and investing activities. For example, as free cash flow has in the past been negative, we have needed to access cash reserves or other sources of capital for these investments.
The foregoing non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. For example, the non-GAAP financial information presented above may be determined or calculated differently by other companies and may not be directly comparable to that of other companies. In addition, free cash flow does not reflect our future contractual commitments and the total increase or decrease of our cash balance for a given period. Further, Adjusted EBITDA excludes some costs, namely, non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the non-cash impact of stock-based compensation expense or working capital needs that will continue for the foreseeable future. All of these limitations could reduce the usefulness of these non-GAAP financial measures as analytical tools.
