As with our previously issued full-year 2020 guidance dated
April 29, 2020, our guidance factors in assumptions regarding the
expected impacts of COVID-19 on our business. This assumes that
generally the most significant headwinds would occur in the second
and third quarter of 2020, that there will be uncertainty around
new business, renewal timing or billings terms, particularly with
customers in industries highly affected by COVID-19, and that these
economic conditions could persist throughout the remainder of the
year. These assumptions are based on information available to us
today. Significant variation from these assumptions could cause us
to modify our guidance higher or lower.
The following table compares our updated full-year 2020 guidance
against our previously issued full-year 2020 guidance dated April
29, 2020:

GAAP subscription revenues and non-GAAP
subscription billings for the future quarters included in our
full-year 2020 guidance are based on foreign exchange rates in
effect at the end of the current quarter for entities reporting in
currencies other than U.S. Dollars. Currency impact represents the
sum of (i) the impact of the difference between the actual average
rates in the period used to calculate our Q2 2020 actual results
and the rates as of March 31, 2020 assumed in our previously issued
guidance dated April 29, 2020 plus (ii) the impact of the
difference between the exchange rates in effect as of June 30, 2020
assumed in our updated full-year 2020 guidance, and the rates as of
March 31, 2020 assumed in our previously issued guidance dated
April 29, 2020.

Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
We report the following non-GAAP financial measures in addition
to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures
calculated in accordance with GAAP.
- Adjusted revenues. We present revenues adjusted for constant
currency to provide a framework for assessing how our business
performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate
fluctuations. To present this information, current period results
for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. Dollars (USD)
are converted into USD at the average exchange rates in effect
during the comparison period (for Q2 2019, the average exchange
rates in effect for our major currencies were 1 USD to 0.8899 Euros
and 1 USD to 0.7781 British Pound Sterling (GBP)), rather than the
actual average exchange rates in effect during the current period
(for Q2 2020, the average exchange rates in effect for our major
currencies were 1 USD to 0.9083 Euros and 1 USD to 0.8059 GBP).
Similarly, in our guidance, we apply the average exchange rates in
effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates
for the guidance period. We believe the presentation of revenues
adjusted for constant currency facilitates the comparison of
revenues year-over-year.
- Billings and Adjusted billings. We believe billings is a useful
leading indicator regarding the performance of our business. We
define subscription billings, professional services and other
billings, and total billings as the applicable revenue plus the
applicable change in deferred revenue, unbilled receivables and
customer deposits as presented or derived from the statement of
cash flows. We adjust billings for constant currency, as described
above, and for constant duration by replacing the portion of
multi-year billings in excess of twelve months during the current
or guidance period with the portion of multi-year billings in
excess of twelve months during the comparison period. We believe
these adjustments facilitate greater comparability in our billings
information year-over-year.
- Gross profit, Income from operations, Net income and Net income
per share - diluted. Our non-GAAP presentation of gross profit,
income from operations, and net income measures exclude certain
non-cash or non-recurring items, including stock-based compensation
expense, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs related
to our convertible senior notes, loss on early note conversions,
amortization of purchased intangibles, legal settlements, business
combination and other related costs, and the related income tax
effect of these adjustments. The non-GAAP weighted-average shares
used to compute our non-GAAP net income per share - diluted
excludes the dilutive effect of the in-the-money portion of
convertible senior notes as they are covered by our note hedges,
and includes the dilutive effect of time-based stock awards, the
dilutive effect of warrants and the potentially dilutive effect of
our stock awards with performance conditions not yet satisfied at
forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is
probable that the performance condition will be met. We believe
these adjustments provide useful supplemental information to
investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and
comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
- Free cash flow. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by (used in) operating activities plus cash paid for legal
settlements and repayments of convertible senior notes attributable
to debt discount, reduced by purchases of property and equipment.
Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow as a
percentage of total revenues. We believe information regarding free
cash flow and free cash flow margin provides useful information to
investors because it is an indicator of the strength and
performance of our business operations.
Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be
comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We
encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP,
as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the
reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully
understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end
of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP results
and guidance.
Use of Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains “forward-looking statements” regarding our
performance, including but not limited to statements in the section
entitled “Financial Outlook.” Forward-looking statements are
subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are based
on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expected or implied by the
forward-looking statements. If any such risks or uncertainties
materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, our
results could differ materially from the results expressed or
implied by the forward-looking statements we make.
Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from
those in any forward-looking statements include: (i) the impact and
duration of the health impact of COVID-19 and the economic impact
of safety measures to mitigate its impact, including the
effectiveness, extent and duration of efforts to limit the spread
and impact of the disease, such as “shelter in place” and similar
government directives; (ii) our ability to compete successfully
against existing and new competitors, (iii) our ability to comply
with evolving privacy laws, data transfer restrictions, and other
foreign and domestic standards related to data and the Internet,
(iv) our ability to predict, prepare for and respond promptly to
rapidly evolving technological, market and customer developments,
(v) errors, interruptions, delays, or security breaches in or of
our service or data centers, (vi) our ability to grow our business,
including converting remaining performance obligations into
revenue, adding and retaining customers, selling additional
subscriptions to existing customers, selling to larger enterprises,
government and regulated organizations with complex sales cycles
and certification processes, and entering new geographies and
markets, (vii) our ability to develop and gain customer acceptance
of new and improved products and services, including those acquired
through strategic transactions, and (viii) material changes in the
value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar.
Additionally, these forward-looking statements, particularly our
guidance, involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions, including
those related to the continued impacts of COVID-19 on our business
and global economic conditions. Many of these assumptions relate to
matters that are beyond our control and changing rapidly,
including, but not limited to, the timeframes for and severity of
social distancing and other mitigation requirements, the continued
impact of COVID-19 on our customers’ purchasing decisions and the
length of our sales cycles, particularly for customers in certain
industries highly affected by COVID-19. Significant variation from
the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements could
cause our actual results to vary, and the impact could be
significant.
Further information on these and other factors that could affect
our financial results are included in our Form 10-Q that will be
filed for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and in other filings we
make with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time,
including our Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31,
2019.
We undertake no obligation, and do not intend, to update these
forward-looking statements, to review or confirm analysts’
expectations, or to provide interim reports or updates on the
progress of the current financial quarter.

Adjusted revenues and the corresponding
growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in
effect during the comparison period rather than the actual average
exchange rates in effect during the current period.
(2)
Adjusted billings and the corresponding
growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in
effect during the comparison period rather than the actual average
exchange rates in effect during the current period, and by
replacing the portion of multi-year billings in excess of twelve
months during the current period with the portion of multi-year
billings in excess of twelve months during the comparison
period.
(3)
Effects of dilutive time-based stock
awards, in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes and
warrants are included in the GAAP weighted-average diluted shares
in periods where we have GAAP net income. We exclude the
in-the-money portion of convertible senior notes for non-GAAP
weighted-average diluted shares as they are covered by our note
hedges. We include stock awards with performance conditions not yet
satisfied for non-GAAP weighted average diluted shares at
forecasted attainment levels to the extent we believe it is
probable that the performance condition will be met.

(1)
Adjusted revenues and the corresponding
growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in
effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates
for the guidance period.
(2)
Adjusted billings and the corresponding
growth rates are derived by applying the average exchange rates in
effect during the comparison period rather than the exchange rates
for the guidance period, and by replacing the portion of multi-year
billings in excess of twelve months for the guidance period with
the actual portion of multi-year billings in excess of twelve
months during the comparison period.
(3)
Effects of foreign currency rate
fluctuations and fluctuations in billing durations are not
applicable for the comparison period.

We exclude the in-the-money portion of
convertible senior notes for non-GAAP weighted-average diluted
shares as they are covered by our note hedges.
