-- Total Revenue of $101.3M, at the top end of our guidance range --
-- Adjusted EBITDA above the midpoint of our guidance range --
--Maintaining 2023 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance midpoints--
NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- LivePerson, Inc. (NASDAQ: LPSN) ("LivePerson" the "Company", "we" or "us"), a global leader in conversational AI, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Third Quarter Highlights
Total revenue was $101.3 million for the third quarter of 2023, at the top end of our prior guidance and a decrease of 21.8% as compared to the same period last year as the company continues to execute on its plan to exit lower-margin and non-core lines of business.
LivePerson signed 50 deals in total for the third quarter, consisting of 19 new and 31 existing customer contracts, including 4 seven-figure deals. Trailing-twelve-months average revenue per enterprise and mid-market customer increased 13% for the third quarter to $595,000, up from approximately $525,000 for the comparable prior-year period. Beginning with the second quarter of 2022, in order to provide a more consistent and meaningful measure of ARPC, we started calculating this metric using only B2B Core recurring revenue, which is consistent with the revenue base for calculating Net Revenue Retention.
"Since last quarter, we have refocused the company on our core strengths – those that have delivered a meaningful return on investment to our enterprise customers by enabling them to efficiently shift legacy voice interactions to digital channels and AI-powered automation," said Interim CEO and CFO John Collins. "Based on projections available from Gartner and Forrester, the combined markets for conversational AI and customer service and support are estimated to grow approximately 20% year-over-year in 2024. Considering the demonstrable return on investment our customers are realizing, and growing traction we're seeing with generative AI, we believe we are well positioned to meet this growing demand."
Customer Expansion
During the third quarter, the Company signed 50 total deals for the quarter, including 4 seven-figure deals, 31 expansion & renewals and 19 new logo deals. New logo deals included:
- Two large California-based credit unions;
- A leading conversational marketplace company; and
- One of the largest network providers in the UK.
The Company also expanded/renewed business with:
- A leading Australian bank;
- A leading South African digital bank;
- One of the world's largest cruise lines; and
- One of the world's largest amusement park and entertainment businesses.
Net Loss and Adjusted Operating Income (Loss)
Net loss for the third quarter of 2023 was $53.3 million or $0.68 per share, as compared to a net loss of $43.2 million or $0.56 per share for the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted operating income, a non-GAAP financial metric, for the third quarter of 2023 was $2.8 million, as compared to $2.0 million adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted operating income (loss) excludes amortization of purchased intangibles and finance leases, stock-based compensation expense, other litigation, consulting and other employee costs, restructuring costs, impairment of goodwill, impairment of intangible assets, gain on divestiture, leadership transition costs, contingent earn-out adjustments, acquisition and divestiture costs, interest (income) expense, and other expense (income).
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, for the third quarter of 2023 was $10.6 million as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $9.1 million for the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA excludes amortization of purchased intangibles and finance leases, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, other litigation, consulting and other employee costs, restructuring costs, impairment of goodwill, impairment of intangible assets, leadership transition costs, gain on divestiture, contingent earn-out adjustments, provision for income taxes, acquisition and divestiture costs, interest (income) expense, and other expense (income).
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release. An explanation of the non-GAAP financial measures and how they are calculated is included below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company's cash balance was $212.2 million at September 30, 2023, as compared to $391.8 million at December 31, 2022.
Financial Expectations
The following forward-looking measures and the underlying assumptions involve significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and actual results may vary materially from these forward-looking measures. The Company does not present a quantitative reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (or otherwise present such forward-looking GAAP measures) because it is impractical to forecast certain items without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting, within a reasonable range, the occurrence and financial impact of and the periods in which such items may be recognized. In particular, these non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items, including amortization of purchased intangibles and finance leases, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, other litigation, consulting and other employee costs, restructuring costs, impairment of goodwill, impairment of intangible assets, leadership transition costs, gain on divestiture, contingent earn-out adjustments, (benefit from) provision for income taxes, acquisition and divestiture costs, interest (income) expense, and other expense (income), which depend on future events that the Company is unable to predict. Depending on the size of these items, they could have a significant impact on the Company's GAAP financial results.
In terms of full year 2023 revenue guidance, we are reiterating the midpoint of $394M, but narrowing the range to $389M - $399M from the prior range of $388M - $400M. This range excludes the $7.2M contribution from Kasamba in Q1.
Inclusive of the Kasamba contribution in Q1, the new full year 2023 revenue guidance range is $396M - $406M, narrowed from the prior range of $395M - $407M.
As for the B2B Core, we expect recurring revenue to represent 86% of total revenue.
For full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA guidance, we are reiterating the midpoint of $25.5M, but narrowing the range to $22M - $29M from the prior range of $19M - $32M.
For the fourth quarter, we expect total revenue to range from $89.7M - $99.7M. Further, we expect B2B Core recurring revenue to represent 89% of total revenue. As for adjusted EBITDA, we are expecting a range of $0M - $7M.
For the tables below, year-over-year growth rates are on a like-for-like basis (excluding Kasamba contribution from 2022).

Further, this sale eliminated the entire Consumer segment, as a result of which revenue is presented within a single consolidated segment. Hosted services includes $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and $9.5 million and $27.7 million of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, relating to Kasamba. |
