Operational and Other Financial Highlights

Extending the DocuSign Agreement Cloud for Salesforce. Ahead of Dreamforce in November, DocuSign announced two new offerings. The first was DocuSign Negotiate, a dedicated solution for smaller companies that simplifies and accelerates the process of generating, redlining, and negotiating agreements-the current version of which is optimized for the Salesforce ecosystem. The second was DocuSign CLM, the next generation of SpringCM's enterprise-level contract lifecycle management solution. DocuSign eSignature for Salesforce CPQ was also enhanced this quarter, and now enables companies to collect a signer's payment method at the time of signature, storing it in Salesforce Billing for future or recurring payments.
Real estate solution developments. DocuSign released DocuSign Rooms API v2.0 on the Developer Center, which enables DocuSign Rooms functionality to be easily integrated into existing environments. DocuSign also renewed its partnership with Lone Wolf Technologies, marked by a deeper integration between DocuSign Rooms for Real Estate and Lone Wolf's zipForm Plus.
Executive appointments. As part of its drive to exceed the industry's most rigorous security standards and create the highest levels of customer trust, DocuSign appointed former United Airlines CISO Emily Heath to the new role of chief trust and security officer in October.

Outlook

The company currently expects the following guidance:

▪	Quarter ending January 31, 2020 (in millions, except percentages):

	Total revenue	$263	to	$267

	Non-GAAP interest and other income (expense)	$3	to	$4
	Provision for income taxes	$1	to	$2
	Non-GAAP diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	190	to	195

▪	Year ending January 31, 2020 (in millions, except percentages):

	Total revenue	$962	to	$966
	Billings	$1,083	to	$1,093
	Non-GAAP gross margin	78%	to	80%

The company has not reconciled its expectations of non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures because stock-based compensation expense cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, which may be different than similarly-titled measures used by other companies, are presented to enhance investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information about our financial performance, enhance the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to important metrics used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We are presenting these non-GAAP measures to assist investors in seeing our financial performance using a management view, and because we believe that these measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry.

Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share: We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective GAAP measures, excluding expenses related to stock-based compensation, employer payroll tax on employee stock transactions, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs from our convertible senior notes issued in September 2018, and, as applicable, other special items. The amount of employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions is dependent on our stock price and other factors that are beyond our control and do not correlate to the operation of the business. When evaluating the performance of our business and making operating plans, we do not consider these items (for example, when considering the impact of equity award grants, we place a greater emphasis on overall stockholder dilution rather than the accounting charges associated with such grants). We believe it is useful to exclude these expenses in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies and over multiple periods.

Free cash flows: We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity measure of the cash (if any) that is available, after purchases of property and equipment, for operational expenses, investment in our business, and to make acquisitions. Free cash flow is useful to investors as a liquidity measure because it measures our ability to generate or use cash in excess of our capital investments in property and equipment. Once our business needs and obligations are met, cash can be used to maintain a strong balance sheet and invest in future growth.

Billings: We define billings as total revenues plus the change in our contract liabilities and refund liability less contract assets and unbilled accounts receivable in a given period. Billings reflects sales to new customers plus subscription renewals and additional sales to existing customers. Only amounts invoiced to a customer in a given period are included in billings. We believe billings is a key metric to measure our periodic performance. Given that most of our customers pay in annual installments one year in advance, but we typically recognize a majority of the related revenue ratably over time, we use billings to measure and monitor our ability to provide our business with the working capital generated by upfront payments from our customers.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, please see "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
