CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Groupon, Inc. (NASDAQ: GRPN) today announced financial results for the
first quarter 2012.
Revenue increased 89% to $559.3 million in the first quarter 2012,
compared with $295.5 million in the first quarter 2011. Gross billings,
which reflects the gross amounts collected from customers for Groupons
sold, excluding any applicable taxes and net of estimated refunds,
increased 103% to $1.35 billion in the first quarter 2012, compared with
$668.2 million in the first quarter 2011.
Operating income was $39.6 million in the first quarter 2012, which
includes an expense of $28.0 million related to non-cash stock-based
compensation. This compares with a loss from operations of $117.1
million in the first quarter 2011, which included stock-based expense of
$18.9 million.
"We are pleased to report a record quarter that demonstrates our
progress in unlocking the opportunity in local commerce for merchants
and customers worldwide," said Andrew Mason, CEO of Groupon.
Operating cash flow increased 367% to $83.7 million, compared with $17.9
million for the prior-year quarter. Free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial
measure, was $70.6 million for the first quarter 2012. At the end of the
quarter, Groupon had $1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents and no
long-term debt.
First quarter 2012 net loss attributable to common stockholders improved
to $11.7 million, or a loss of $0.02 per share, from a net loss
attributable to common stockholders of $146.5 million, or a loss of
$0.48 per share, in the first quarter 2011. The net loss in the first
quarter 2012 included $34.6 million in tax expense, or $0.05 per share.
Non-GAAP earnings per share attributable to common stockholders for the
first quarter 2012 improved to $0.02 versus a non-GAAP loss per share
attributable to common stockholders of $0.41 for the first quarter 2011.

(1) The Company restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in
the Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 2, 2011, to correct for an
error in its presentation of revenue. Most significantly, the
Company restated its reporting of revenues from Groupons to be net
of the amounts related to merchant fees. Historically, the Company
reported the gross amounts billed to its subscribers as revenue. The
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2011, was restated to show the net amount the
Company retains after paying the merchant fees. The effect of the
correction resulted in a reduction of previously reported revenues
and corresponding reductions in cost of revenue in those periods.
The change in presentation had no effect on pre-tax loss, net loss
or any per share amounts for the period.
|
|
(2) Represents change in financial measures that would have resulted
had average exchange rates in the reported period been the same as
those in effect in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
|
|
(3) Non-GAAP net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders
is a non-GAAP financial measure. This measure excludes stock-based
compensation and acquisition-related costs. See ‘‘Non-GAAP Financial
Measures'' for a reconciliation of this measure to the most
applicable financial measure under U.S. GAAP.
|
|
(4) The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding is calculated
using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive,
potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential
common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon
the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units
and restricted shares, as calculated using the treasury stock method.

Highlights
-
Rapid acceleration of North American revenue growth. North
American revenues grew 75% year-over-year and accelerated sequentially
faster than they have since the first quarter of 2011. North America's
continuing growth was due in part to technology innovations such as
deal personalization that Groupon plans to introduce to the majority
of its international operations by the end of this year.
-
Strong consumer and merchant satisfaction. Groupon commissioned
ForeSee, a leading market research firm, to assess merchant and
customer satisfaction using their standard methodology. Groupon's
March 2012 U.S. consumer satisfaction score of 83 places the Company
among the highest surveyed and within approximately 2 points of the
5-year #1 average satisfaction score for online retailers. Groupon's
March 2012 U.S. merchant satisfaction score of 79 also ranks high,
considerably above the B2B benchmark of 64 and the Fortune 500 score
of 69.
-
New customer milestone. As of March 31, 2012, Groupon surpassed
the 35 million active customer mark, ending the quarter with 36.9
million active customers, an increase of 140% year-over-year.
-
New merchant milestone. The first quarter 2012 marked the first
time that more than 100,000 unique merchants were served in a single
quarter. In addition, in the first quarter, more than 50% of offers
were with merchants who had previously run on Groupon.
-
Merchant tools gaining momentum. Groupon Rewards continues to
expand. During the past two months, more than 30% of eligible daily
deal merchants in pilot cities signed up for the program. Early
results suggest that Rewards customers are more loyal than other
customers. Groupon Scheduler has also seen early success, with more
than 2,500 merchants signed up to date.
-
Growth in mobile and Now! In April 2012, nearly 30% of North
American transactions were completed on mobile devices, compared with
25% in December 2011. This growth has created momentum for Groupon
Now!, which recently surpassed 1.5 million Groupons sold. Now!
achieved this milestone faster and within fewer markets than the daily
deals business.
-
Increased leverage from marketing spend. In the first quarter
2012, approximately the same number of customers were added as in the
fourth quarter 2011, while marketing spend decreased by 25%. At the
same time, the number of repeat purchasers grew 1.5 times faster than
the number of unique purchasers.
Second Quarter 2012 Outlook
Revenue for the second quarter 2012 is expected to be between $550
million and $590 million, an increase of between 40% and 50% compared
with the second quarter 2011.
Income from operations for the second quarter 2012 is expected to be
between $25 million and $45 million, compared with a loss from
operations of $101.0 million in the second quarter 2011. This outlook
includes approximately $35 million of stock-based compensation. Our
outlook further assumes no acquisitions or investments, or material
changes in foreign exchange rates.
A conference call will be webcast live today at 4:00 p.m. CT/5:00 p.m.
ET, and will be available on Groupon's investor relations website at http://investor.groupon.com.
This call will contain forward-looking statements and other material
information regarding the Company's financial and operating results.
Extension of Lock-Up Period
As previously reported, in connection with Company's initial public
offering, the underwriters and certain holders of Groupon common stock
entered into agreements restricting the sale or transfer of shares of
common stock during the 180-day period following the closing of the IPO.
These agreements provide for an automatic extension in the event the
Company announced that it would release earnings or other material news
within the 16-day period following the originally-scheduled expiration
of the agreements. These agreements were originally scheduled to expire
on May 2, 2012. As a result of today's earnings release, the lock-up
agreements described above will now expire on June 1, 2012, with June 1,
2012, being the first day such shares are eligible for sale or transfer.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes the following non-GAAP financial measures: free
cash flow and non-GAAP net (loss) income attributable to common
stockholders. In the Supplemental Financial Information Table and
Business Metrics, we also include operating income and operating margin,
in each case excluding stock-based compensation and acquisition-related
expenses. Free cash flow and non-GAAP net (loss) income attributable to
common stockholders may be different from similar measures used by other
companies. Groupon believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful
because they provide for more meaningful comparisons of period-to-period
results by excluding certain non-cash charges that Groupon believes are
not driven by core operating results. However, these non-GAAP measures
are not intended to be a substitute for cash flows from operations or
net income, and are not intended to represent the total increase or
decrease in Groupon's cash balance for the applicable period. The
presentation of this financial information, which is not prepared under
any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles, is not intended
to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial
information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These
non-GAAP measures should only be used to evaluate our results of
operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. For a
reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest
comparable U.S. GAAP measures, see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" included in this release.
Free cash flow represents operating cash flow less purchases of property
and equipment. Non-GAAP net income excludes from GAAP net income
stock-based compensation and acquisition-related expenses. The non-GAAP
measures included in this release are adjusted by excluding the items
below:
Property and Equipment: Purchases of property and equipment are
subtracted from operating cash flow in the calculation of free cash flow
because Groupon believes that this is more aligned with an analysis of
ongoing business operations, as purchases of fixed assets, software
developed for internal use, and website development costs are necessary
components of ongoing operations.
Stock-based compensation expense: Stock-based compensation is
excluded because it is a non-cash expense. It is, however, reflected in
earnings per share, as it is incorporated in sharecount.
Acquisition-related expense: Acquisition-related costs that are
non-cash in nature are excluded. The timing and nature of these expenses
are unpredictable, and Groupon believes that they do not provide for
meaningful period-to-period comparisons.
Included in the tables below are reconciliations of each of the non-GAAP
financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measures.
Note on Forward Looking Statements

the next quarter or the future are forward-looking statements that

(1) The Company restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in the
Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 2, 2011, to correct for an error in
its presentation of revenue. Most significantly, the Company restated
its reporting of revenues from Groupons to be net of the amounts related
to merchant fees. Historically, the Company reported the gross amounts
billed to its subscribers as revenue. The Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was
restated to show the net amount the Company retains after paying the
merchant fees. The effect of the correction resulted in a reduction of
previously reported revenues and corresponding reductions in cost of
revenue in those periods. The change in presentation had no effect on
pre-tax loss, net loss or any per share amounts for the period.
The Company also changed the presentation of certain other income
statement expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, to be
consistent with reporting revenue on a net basis. These changes included
presenting loyalty programs as a component of marketing rather than as
an offset to revenue. The Company believes that this classification is
most appropriate as it is acting as an agent on behalf of the merchant
in driving traffic to generate revenue. In addition, refunds made to
customers which are not recovered by the merchant are presented as a
component of cost of revenue, rather than as an offset to revenue, as
these amounts are not paid directly to the merchants.
A portion of technology costs and editorial costs were reclassified to
cost of revenue from selling, general and administrative for the three
months ended March 31, 2011.
Costs associated with the Company's marketing staff, including payroll,
benefits and stock compensation, were reclassified to marketing for the
three months ended March 31, 2011, from selling general and
administrative.

(1)The Company restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in the
Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 2, 2011, to correct for an error in
its presentation of revenue. Most significantly, the Company restated
its reporting of revenues from Groupons to be net of the amounts related
to merchant fees. Historically, the Company reported the gross amounts
billed to its subscribers as revenue. The Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was
restated to show the net amount the Company retains after paying the
merchant fees. The effect of the correction resulted in a reduction of
previously reported revenues and corresponding reductions in cost of
revenue in those periods. The change in presentation had no effect on
pre-tax loss, net loss or any per share amounts for the period.
The Company also changed the presentation of certain other income
statement expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, to be
consistent with reporting revenue on a net basis. These changes included
presenting loyalty programs as a component of marketing rather than as
an offset to revenue. The Company believes that this classification is
most appropriate as it is acting as an agent on behalf of the merchant
in driving traffic to generate revenue. In addition, refunds made to
customers which are not recovered by the merchant are presented as a
component of cost of revenue, rather than as an offset to revenue, as
these amounts are not paid directly to the merchants.
A portion of technology costs and editorial costs were reclassified to
cost of revenue from selling, general and administrative for the three
months ended March 31, 2011.
Costs associated with the Company's marketing staff, including payroll,
benefits and stock compensation, were reclassified to marketing for the
three months ended March 31, 2011, from selling general and
administrative.
(2) Represents operating expenses, excluding stock-based compensation
and acquisition-related expense, which are not allocated to segments.

The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding is calculated using
the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive,
potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential
common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon
the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units
and restricted shares, as calculated using the treasury stock method.

Represents non-cash stock-based compensation expense recorded within
selling, general and administrative expenses, marketing expenses and
cost of revenue on the income statement.

Primarily represents non-cash charges for measurement of the fair
value of contingent consideration related to acquisitions made by us
since 2010.

The Company restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in
the Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 2, 2011, to correct for an
error in its presentation of revenue. Most significantly, the
Company restated its reporting of revenues from Groupons to be net
of the amounts related to merchant fees. Historically, the Company
reported the gross amounts billed to its subscribers as revenue. The
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2011, was restated to show the net amount the
Company retains after paying the merchant fees. The effect of the
correction resulted in a reduction of previously reported revenues
and corresponding reductions in cost of revenue in those periods.
The change in presentation had no effect on pre-tax loss, net loss
or any per share amounts for the period.
The Company also changed the presentation of certain other income
statement expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011, to
be consistent with reporting revenue on a net basis. These changes
included presenting loyalty programs as a component of marketing
rather than as an offset to revenue. The Company believes that
this classification is most appropriate as it is acting as an
agent on behalf of the merchant in driving traffic to generate
revenue. In addition, refunds made to customers which are not
recovered by the merchant are presented as a component of cost of
revenue, rather than as an offset to revenue, as these amounts are
not paid directly to the merchants.
A portion of technology costs and editorial costs were
reclassified to cost of revenue from selling, general and
administrative for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Costs associated with the Company's marketing staff, including
payroll, benefits and stock compensation, were reclassified to
marketing for the three months ended March 31, 2011, from selling
general and administrative.

the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive,
potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential
common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon
the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units
and restricted shares, as calculated using the treasury stock method.

The Company restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, included in
the Form S-1 filed with the SEC on June 2, 2011, to correct for an
error in its presentation of revenue. Most significantly, the
Company restated its reporting of revenues from Groupons to be net
of the amounts related to merchant fees. Historically, the Company
reported the gross amounts billed to its subscribers as revenue. The
Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2011, was restated to show the net amount the
Company retains after paying the merchant fees. The effect of the
correction resulted in a reduction of previously reported revenues
and corresponding reductions in cost of revenue in those periods.
The change in presentation had no effect on pre-tax loss, net loss
or any per share amounts for the period.
The Company has also changed the presentation of certain other
income statement expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2011 to be consistent with reporting revenue on a net basis. These
changes include presenting loyalty programs as a component of
marketing rather than as an offset to revenue. The Company
believes that this classification is most appropriate as it is
acting as an agent on behalf of the merchant in driving traffic to
generate revenue. In addition, refunds made to customers which are
not recovered by the merchant are presented as a component of cost
of revenue, rather than as an offset to revenue, as these amounts
are not paid directly to the merchants.
A portion of technology costs and editorial costs have been
reclassified to cost of revenue from selling, general and
administrative for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Costs associated with the Company's marketing staff, including
payroll, benefits and stock compensation, have been reclassified
to marketing for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from
selling general and administrative.
