Sonic Foundry Announces Fiscal Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Sonic Foundry, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFO), the trusted leader in video creation and management solutions, and virtual and hybrid events, today announced consolidated financial results for its 2023 fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Executive Summary:

In the second quarter, there was a substantial lift in Mediasite renewals and hardware sales. This resulted in Mediasite billings increasing 40% over the first quarter, revenue increasing nearly 15% over the first quarter and a 32% sequential increase in recurring billings from contract renewals. We anticipate this growth in Mediasite recurring billings should translate into meaningful revenue growth in upcoming quarters. In addition, the company’s new strategic initiatives continued to demonstrate progress. These initiatives provide the runway for Sonic Foundry’s accelerated growth plan and the company will continue to invest resources to realize their full potential in the high-growth markets they address. Sonic Foundry anticipates these investments will continue to impact near-term profitability yet over the longer term generate strong returns and value creation. “As I shared in our annual shareholder meeting, we knew turning the ship towards our new high growth areas would negatively impact our profitability and to some extent our Mediasite growth, however we believe our growth strategy coupled with our persistent focus on recurring SaaS revenue and long-term contracts has positioned us for stable, predictable future Mediasite revenue growth as we simultaneously pursue our high growth strategy,” said Sonic Foundry CEO Joe Mozden, Jr.

Highlights for the Second Quarter Ended March 31, 2023:

  • Second quarter billings from combined business lines increased 50% over the prior-year quarter.
  • Total revenue was $5.7 million compared to $7.2 million in the prior-year quarter due in large part to foreign exchange in Japan and COVID’s continued impact on events in Japan.
  • Gross margin was 57% of revenue versus 71% of revenue in the prior year quarter, primarily due to accelerated depreciation on hosting infrastructure and other transition costs as we migrate our cloud instance.
  • Net loss was $3.4 million, or $0.28 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.3 million, or $0.15 per share, in the second fiscal quarter of 2022.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was a negative $2.0 million compared to negative $787 thousand million in the fiscal second quarter of 2022.

Year-to-Date Financial Highlights:

  • Total year-to-date revenues of $10.8 million compared to $14.5 million in the same period of 2022, a $3.7 million decrease.
  • Year-to-date gross margin was 59% of revenue versus 71% of revenue in the prior year quarter, primarily due to short-term transition costs related to our move to a public cloud environment with the remainder to support growth expectations from our events business.
  • Year-to-date net loss of $7.8 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to a net loss of $2.9 million or $0.35 per share, in the same period of 2022.
  • Year-to-date adjusted EBITDA was a negative $4.9 million compared to negative $1.8 million, in the same year-to-date period of 2022.

Management Commentary:

“At the close of the second quarter of 2023, we are pleased to report substantive progress in our Mediasite business. We saw a substantial lift in both Mediasite hardware sales and contract renewals in the second quarter, which resulted in Mediasite billings increasing 40% over the first quarter, with a 32% increase in recurring billings. Although earnings were down, this was expected due to planned investments in our new strategic initiatives. Overall, we see a cluster of positive developments in the video business. First, post-pandemic, it’s still a video-first world and Mediasite customers are embracing a broader vision for content and its applications as it continues to evolve into a driver of key business objectives. Second, the restoration of federal funding in Japan following a sustained period of Covid-related reductions, in addition to a more favorable currency exchange rate, resulted in Mediasite Japan billings more than doubling over the first quarter. Third, our increase in recurring revenue demonstrates the success we are seeing as we make the turn from hardware sales to annualized license products bundled with our SaaS business, generating more consistent monthly revenue. To that end, we are making strong progress migrating our on-premises customers to the Mediasite cloud and are maximizing the efficiency of our cloud investment by moving our infrastructure to the AWS Cloud, which will improve the hosting environment and limit long-term capital investment,” said Sonic Foundry CEO Joe Mozden, Jr.

“We built our global reputation on Mediasite, and we will continue to leverage that strength both independently and as the principal go-to-market vector for Vidable™, our next-gen solution that applies artificial intelligence to transform video content. The outstanding accuracy and performance of our captioning solution has generated rave reviews and positioned us on the ground floor of what AI and machine learning can deliver for our customers. High-quality speech-to-text data provides the essential foundation for accessibility, searchability, and advanced engagement capabilities, which are the three key characteristics that we expect will shape the future of video in enterprise and learning environments. To capitalize on the continued or strong demand in these areas, we have plans to deploy translations, AI-generated metadata, and an early version of an AI-powered engagement analytics platform by the end of Q3. The enormous potential of Vidable is unfolding every day—we have already sold about half a million hours of video transformation and have an additional 600,000+ hours in the sales pipeline. We continue to believe that AI-transformed video is an emerging market that we have the right to win, and we are moving aggressively to secure the traction necessary for a rapid expansion.”

“The in-person events business continues its strong recovery from the pandemic, and we expect our Video Solutions team to secure around 300 events in 2023. The partnership we announced last quarter with CTI Meeting Technology has provided us with a direct channel to dozens of CTI customers, including several of the world’s leading research organizations, and the innovative workflow that our teams have developed together will allow us to turn around high-quality on-demand video from live content in one hour—a first for the events industry. We are currently in discussions with other major event and A/V providers and hope to announce at least one new channel partnership by the end of Q3."

“Our recent engagements in the events market have reinforced our confidence in the growing appetite for a more comprehensive and value-driven approach to event video services, which represents another opportunity to deploy and monetize Vidable. Event professionals are eager to incorporate AI-powered tools into their video production and distribution processes and the hands-on relationship that we have established through our Video Solutions team will allow us to deliver Vidable-powered services with a high level of quality control, as well as direct access to the processed data. Accordingly, we are expanding the short-term go-to-market strategy for Vidable to include the events business, where we can gain traction and achieve high-volume utilization quickly while generating immediate revenue via enhancements to existing Video Solutions contracts and through channel-enabled deals.”

“Global Learning Exchange™ (GLX), is also gaining traction. Our GLX Hub in the Bahamas is experiencing a steady upswing in inquiries, applications, and student enrollments. Our partnership with UNESCO-REF has accelerated access to countries, students, and government officials in Africa and we plan to open GLX Hubs in Nigeria and South Africa this summer. Both countries are high on our priority list due to their sizeable populations, growing economies, and supply/demand imbalance in higher education. We have also continued to expand our roster of higher education partners. In the past two months, we announced partnerships with EC-Council University, a leader in cyber security education and technical certification, and Colorado State University Global, which offers an extensive roster of fully online, internationally recognized, career-focused degrees and certification programs. Together with all our university partners, we offer accredited degrees and certifications that can change the lives of students and their families while contributing to the advancement of their nation’s economy.”

“The progress we’ve made over the past quarter has significantly reinforced our optimism about Sonic Foundry’s future. Our financial performance reflects the steps we have taken to shore up our traditional Mediasite business and invest in all three of our growth initiatives – Vidable, Video Solutions, and Global Learning Exchange – which are gaining traction as we speak. As previously stated, our goal is to make these new business units profitable before we exit 2024. While there is still significant work ahead, we are confident in our direction and ability to execute our plan, and we expect more positive updates are right around the corner,” concluded Mozden.

Fiscal Second Quarter 2023 Operating Results:

Service revenue, which included support, cloud services, events, and professional services, was $4.1 million for the fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to the prior-year-quarter service revenue of $5.1 million due to non-repeatable integration projects which took place in 2022. Product revenue was $1.6 million compared to $2.2 million during the same period last year. Cloud services revenue, which also included event-related cloud services, decreased 3% to $1.7 million in the fiscal second quarter of 2023 compared to $1.8 million in the same quarter last year. Event revenue in the fiscal second quarter of 2023 was $945 thousand, compared with $998 thousand reported in the comparable year-ago quarter. Gross margin was $3.3 million for the fiscal second quarter of fiscal 2023, compared with $5.2 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Non-GAAP Financial Information:

To supplement and enhance the reader’s understanding of our operating performance, we disclose adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (adjusted EBITDA), a non-GAAP measure of operating performance. Our adjusted EBITDA measure additionally adds back stock compensation expense and severance from the SEC definition of EBITDA. As such, our adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income as a measurement of our operating performance. A reconciliation of net income to adjusted EBITDA for the year to date and second quarter ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 are included in the release.
