Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

As of June 30, 2024, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and funds held on behalf of customers were $145.2 million and total debt was $1,240.3 million; compared to cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $344.2 million and total debt of $491.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and funds held on behalf of customers and increase in debt since December 31, 2023 is primarily driven by cash spent and debt incurred in connection with the Parchment acquisition. As of June 30, 2024, Instructure’s total leverage ratio is 4.9x (which represents Total Debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA) and net leverage ratio is 4.3x (which represents Net Debt to trailing twelve month Adjusted EBITDA). This calculation includes twelve months of historical Instructure Adjusted EBITDA and five months of Parchment contribution to Adjusted EBITDA. Net cash used in operating activities was $8.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $25.1 million net cash provided by operating activities in the prior year period. This decrease was primarily driven by higher interest expense. Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow was $25.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $37.1 million in the prior year period.

Transaction with KKR

Given the announcement made on July 25, 2024, regarding Instructure’s entry into a definitive agreement to be acquired by affiliates of investment funds managed by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (“KKR”), a leading global investment firm, Instructure will not host an earnings conference call or provide financial guidance in conjunction with this report. The Company’s previously issued guidance for full year fiscal 2024 should no longer be relied upon. For further detail on quarterly performance, please refer to Instructure’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, filed today with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Instructure has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). In addition to Instructure’s results determined in accordance with GAAP, Instructure believes the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating its operating performance and liquidity. Instructure believes that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Instructure has updated the grouping of the presentation of the adjustments to Non-GAAP Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income, Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow, Non-GAAP Cost of Revenue, Non-GAAP Operating Expenses, and Non-GAAP Gross Profit to more closely conform to the Company’s strategies and initiatives. These measures are not being recasted.

A reconciliation of Instructure’s historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.

Non-GAAP Operating Income; Non-GAAP Operating Income Margin. We define non-GAAP operating income as loss from operations excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, other non-recurring costs, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. We believe non-GAAP operating income is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Although we exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles from the non-GAAP measure, management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Non-GAAP operating income margin is defined as non-GAAP operating income divided by revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA; Adjusted EBITDA Margin. EBITDA is defined as earnings before debt-related costs, including interest and loss on debt extinguishment, benefit for taxes, depreciation, and amortization. We further adjust EBITDA to exclude certain items of a significant or unusual nature, including stock-based compensation, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, other non-recurring costs, effects of foreign currency transaction (gains) and losses, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. Although we exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles from this non-GAAP measure, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

Non-GAAP Net Income. We define non-GAAP net income as net loss excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, loss on extinguishment of debt, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, other non-recurring costs, and effects of foreign currency transaction (gains) and losses that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operations. The tax effects of the adjustments are calculated using the statutory tax rate, taking into consideration the nature of the item and the relevant taxing jurisdiction. We believe Non-GAAP net income is useful in evaluating our operating performance compared to that of other companies in our industry, as this metric generally eliminates the effects of certain items that may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Although we exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles from the non-GAAP measure, management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. Basic non-GAAP net income per common share is computed by dividing non-GAAP net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted non-GAAP net income per common share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period.

Free Cash Flow, Unlevered Free Cash Flow and Adjusted Unlevered Free Cash Flow. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and intangible assets, net of proceeds from disposals of property and equipment. We define unlevered free cash flow as free cash flow adjusted for cash paid for interest on outstanding debt and cash settled stock-based compensation. We define adjusted unlevered free cash flow as unlevered free cash flow adjusted for transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, and other non-recurring costs paid in cash. We believe free cash flow, unlevered free cash flow and adjusted unlevered free cash flow facilitate period-to-period comparisons of liquidity. We consider free cash flow, unlevered free cash flow and adjusted unlevered free cash flow to be important measures because they measure the amount of cash we generate and reflect changes in working capital.

Non-GAAP Cost of Revenue and Non-GAAP Operating Expenses. We define non-GAAP cost of revenue and non-GAAP operating expenses as GAAP cost of revenue and GAAP operating expenses, respectively, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, other non-recurring costs, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operations. Although we exclude the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles from the non-GAAP measures, management believes it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit; Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin. We define non-GAAP gross profit as gross profit excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin is defined as Non-GAAP gross profit divided by revenue.

Subscription and Support Non-GAAP Gross Profit; Subscription and Support Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin. We define subscription and support Non-GAAP gross profit as subscription and support gross profit excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, transaction costs, globalization costs, restructuring costs, technology modernization costs, and amortization of acquisition-related intangibles. Subscription and support non-GAAP gross profit margin is defined as subscription and support non-GAAP gross profit divided by subscription and support revenue.

Net Debt; Net Leverage Ratio. We define net debt as total outstanding debt, less cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and funds held on behalf of customers. Management uses this supplemental non-GAAP measure to evaluate the Company’s leverage. Net leverage ratio is computed by dividing net debt by adjusted EBITDA.
