"With operational discipline built into the core of our company, we drove record gross and operating margins in the quarter. Our efficient cost structure enables us to continue to make meaningful investments in our sales and marketing programs and product roadmap as we deliver the leading Intelligent Content Cloud for the enterprise."

Fiscal Third Quarter Financial Highlights

Revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $275.9 million, a 5% increase from revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of $261.5 million, or 6% growth on a constant currency basis.
Remaining performance obligations ("RPO") as of October 31, 2024 were $1.282 billion, a 13% increase from RPO as of October 31, 2023 of $1.131 billion, or 14% growth on a constant currency basis.
Billings for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 were $264.7 million, a 4% increase from billings for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 of $253.7 million, or 3% growth on a constant currency basis. Third quarter billings were impacted by a roughly 100 basis point tailwind from FX versus our prior expectations of 210 basis point tailwind.
GAAP gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was a record $220.4 million, or 79.9% of revenue. This compares to a GAAP gross profit of $192.3 million, or 73.5% of revenue, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Non-GAAP gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was a record $226.1 million, or 81.9% of revenue. This compares to a non-GAAP gross profit of $199.6 million, or 76.3% of revenue, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
GAAP operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was a record $23.4 million, or 8.5% of revenue. This compares to a GAAP operating income of $11.4 million, or 4.4% of revenue, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Non-GAAP operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was a record $80.2 million, or 29.1% of revenue. This compares to a non-GAAP operating income of $64.6 million, or 24.7% of revenue, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $0.05 on 149.1 million weighted-average shares outstanding. This compares to GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders of $0.04 in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 on 147.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding. GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 includes a negative impact of $0.02 year-over-year from unfavorable foreign exchange rates.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was a record $0.45 on 149.5 million weighted-average shares outstanding. This compares to non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders of $0.36 in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 on 147.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 includes a negative impact of $0.02 year-over-year from unfavorable foreign exchange rates.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $62.6 million, a 13% decrease from net cash provided by operating activities of $71.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Non-GAAP free cash flow in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $57.4 million, a 2% decrease from non-GAAP free cash flow of $58.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Raised $460 million through a convertible debt offering, with convertible notes due September 15, 2029.

Growth on a constant currency basis and impact from foreign exchange is determined by comparing current period reported results with the current results calculated using the equivalent rates in the prior period.

Outlook

As a reminder, approximately one third of Box's revenue is generated outside of the U.S., of which approximately 65% is in Japanese Yen. The following guidance includes the expected impact of FX headwinds, assuming present foreign currency exchange rates.

Additionally, as we have become consistently profitable in our international business, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 we released the valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets in the United Kingdom. Accordingly, in fiscal year 2025 we are recognizing deferred tax expense in the United Kingdom. This non-cash expense is reflected in our GAAP and non-GAAP diluted net income per share guidance for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025 and full fiscal year 2025.

Q4 FY25 Guidance

Revenue is expected to be approximately $279 million, up 6% year-over-year, or 7% growth on a constant currency basis.
GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 7.5%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 27.5%.
GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be approximately $0.07. GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.02 from unfavorable exchange rates and $0.01 from the recognition of deferred tax expenses in international countries.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be approximately $0.41. Non-GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.02 from unfavorable exchange rates and $0.01 from the recognition of deferred tax expenses in international countries.
Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 151 million.

Full Year FY25 Guidance

Revenue is expected to be approximately $1.090 billion, up 5% year-over-year, or 7% growth on a constant currency basis. We now expect FX to be a 190 basis point headwind to full fiscal year 2025 revenue growth, 20 basis points higher than our previous expectations. On a constant currency basis, our new guidance represents a $3 million increase from our previous guidance.
GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 7.5%, and non-GAAP operating margin is expected to be approximately 28%. For full fiscal year 2025 GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin, we now expect FX to be a headwind of 140 basis points, 10 basis points higher than our previous expectations.
GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be approximately $0.30. FY25 GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.13 from unfavorable exchange rates and $0.05 from the recognition of deferred tax expenses in international countries.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders is expected to be approximately $1.70. FY25 non-GAAP EPS guidance includes an expected negative impact of $0.13 from unfavorable exchange rates and $0.05 from the recognition of deferred tax expenses in international countries.
Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 149 million.

All forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures contained in this section titled "Outlook" exclude estimates for stock-based compensation expense, intangible assets amortization, and as applicable, other special items. Box has provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP net income per share and operating margin guidance at the end of this press release.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics

To supplement Box's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, Box provides investors with certain non-GAAP financial measures and other key metrics, including non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders, non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders, billings, remaining performance obligations, non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow margin. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics, please see the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures and certain key metrics to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.

Box uses these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics for financial and operational decision-making (including for purposes of determining variable compensation of members of management and other employees) and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Box's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Box's performance by excluding certain expenses that may not be indicative of Box's recurring core business operating results. Box believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics in assessing Box's performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics also facilitate management's internal comparisons to Box's historical performance as well as comparisons to Box's competitors' operating results. Box believes these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics are useful to investors both because they (1) allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) are used by Box's institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of Box's business.

A limitation of non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics is that they do not have uniform definitions. Further, Box's definitions will likely differ from the definitions used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. Thus, Box's non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, in the case of stock-based compensation expense, if Box did not pay a portion of compensation in the form of stock-based compensation expense, the cash salary expense included in cost of revenue and operating expenses would be higher, which would affect Box's cash position. The accompanying tables have more details on the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and certain key metrics to their nearest comparable GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin. Box defines non-GAAP gross profit as GAAP gross profit excluding expenses related to stock-based compensation ("SBC") included in cost of revenue, intangible assets amortization, and as applicable, other special items. Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit divided by revenue. Although SBC is an important aspect of the compensation of Box's employees and executives, determining the fair value of certain of the stock-based instruments Box utilizes estimation and the expense recorded may bear little resemblance to the actual value realized upon the vesting or future exercise of the related stock-based awards. Management believes it is useful to exclude SBC in order to better understand the long-term performance of Box's core business and to facilitate comparison of Box's results to those of peer companies. Management also views amortization of acquired intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost associated with an acquired company's developed technology and trade names, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangibles is a static expense that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period. Box also excludes expenses associated with a non-recurring workforce reorganization from non-GAAP gross profit as they are considered by management to be special items outside of Box's core operating results.

Non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin. Box defines non-GAAP operating income as operating income excluding expenses related to SBC, intangible assets amortization, and as applicable, other special items. Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as non-GAAP operating income divided by revenue. Box excludes the following expenses as they are considered by management to be special items outside of Box's core operating results: (1) fees related to shareholder activism (2) expenses related to certain litigation, (3) expenses associated with a non-recurring workforce reorganization, consisting primarily of severance and other personnel-related costs, and (4) expenses related to acquisitions.

Non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders and non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders. Box defines non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders as GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders excluding expenses related to SBC, intangible assets amortization, amortization of debt issuance costs, the income tax benefit from the release of a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, induced conversion of convertible notes, undistributed earnings attributable to preferred stockholders, and as applicable, other special items as described in the preceding paragraph. Box defines non-GAAP net income per share attributable to common stockholders as non-GAAP net income attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average outstanding shares.

Billings. Billings reflect, in any particular period, (1) sales to new customers, plus (2) subscription renewals and (3) expansion within existing customers, and represent amounts invoiced for all products and professional services. Box calculates billings for a period by adding changes in deferred revenue and contract assets in that period to revenue. Box believes that billings help investors better understand sales activity for a particular period, which is not necessarily reflected in revenue as a result of the fact that Box recognizes subscription revenue ratably over the subscription term. Box considers billings a significant performance measure. Box monitors billings to manage the business, make planning decisions, evaluate performance and allocate resources. Box believes that billings offers valuable supplemental information regarding the performance of the business and helps investors better understand the sales volumes and performance of the business. Although Box considers billings to be a significant performance measure, Box does not consider it to be a non-GAAP financial measure because it is calculated using exclusively revenue, deferred revenue, and contract assets, all of which are financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Remaining performance obligations. Remaining performance obligations ("RPO") represent, at a point in time, contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized. RPO consists of deferred revenue and backlog. Backlog is defined as non-cancellable contracts deemed certain to be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Future invoicing is determined to be certain when we have an executed non-cancellable contract or a significant penalty that is due upon cancellation. While Box believes RPO is a leading indicator of revenue as it represents sales activity not yet recognized in revenue, it is not necessarily indicative of future revenue growth as it is influenced by several factors, including seasonality, contract renewal timing, average contract terms and foreign currency exchange rates. Box monitors RPO to manage the business and evaluate performance. Box considers RPO to be a significant performance measure. Box does not consider RPO to be a non-GAAP financial measure because it is calculated in accordance with GAAP, specifically under ASC Topic 606.

Non-GAAP free cash flow and free cash flow margin. Box defines non-GAAP free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment, principal payments of finance lease liabilities, capitalized internal-use software costs, and other items that did not or are not expected to require cash settlement and that management considers to be outside of Box's core business. Free cash flow margin is calculated as non-GAAP free cash flow divided by revenue. Box specifically identifies adjusting items in the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures. Box considers non-GAAP free cash flow to be a profitability and liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that can possibly be used for investing in Box's business and strengthening its balance sheet, but it is not intended to represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. The presentation of non-GAAP free cash flow is also not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity.
