Alteryx's (AYX) Q2 Earnings Top Estimates, Revenues Rise Y/Y
Read MoreHide Full Article
Alteryx’s second-quarter 2020 non-GAAP earnings of 2 cents per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 114.3% and jumped 100% year over year.
Revenues increased 17.3% year over year to $96.2 million and surpassed the consensus mark by 2.4%.
Alteryx witnessed a significant change in customers’ buying behavior due to the coronavirus-triggered rapidly-changing macroeconomic conditions and implementation of shelter-in-place guidelines.
The company observed notable changes such as higher levels of scrutiny on spending across all sectors resulting in longer sales cycles, smaller deal sizes and less-favorable linearity in the quarter. Alteryx doesn’t anticipate a material improvement in business conditions during 2020.
Alteryx ended the second quarter with 6,714 customers, up 27.2% year over year. The company added 271 net customers, including six of the Global 2000 in the reported quarter.
The company won new businesses in high-risk verticals like transportation, accommodations, food service and retail in the quarter under review, reflecting solid demand for Alteryx’s solutions and long-term tailwind for analytics space.
Moreover, the dollar-based net expansion rate (annual contract-value based) was 126%, down from 133% achieved in the year-ago quarter.
At the end of the quarter, Alteryx’s annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) was more than $430 million, up 40% year over year.
U.S. revenues increased 14% year over year to $66 million while international revenues were up 25% to $30.2 million. Asia and Middle East exhibited strength during the quarter.
Markedly, Alteryx showcased Analytic Process Automation (“APA”) that unifies analytics, data science and business-process automation. The company also introduced Alteryx Analytics Hub and Alteryx Intelligence Suite, solutions that extend the functionality of its APA platform.
As a part of its social-responsibility initiatives, the company launched Advancing Data & Analytics Potential Together program, which offers free data analytics training to thousands of workers globally impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.
