Business Outlook

VTEX is well-positioned to capture an attractive global market opportunity, and we are encouraged by the strength of our business in terms of adding new enterprise customers, gross retention, our product leadership and platform expansion, and our operational efficiency. With the recent slowdown in GMV growth, especially in Brazil, we anticipate more muted same-store sales in the short term. However, we are encouraged by implementing recently signed customers, signing new enterprise customers, and enhancing our product offering. Consequently, we remain confident in our global expansion and ability to sustain a profitable growth trajectory and global expansion.

In this context, we are currently targeting FX neutral YoY subscription revenue growth of 13% to 15% for the first quarter of 2025, implying a US$51.0 million to US$52.0 million range.

For the full year 2025, as we continue executing our profitable growth strategy, we are targeting FX neutral YoY subscription revenue growth of 14% to 17%, implying a range of US$235.0 million to US$241.0 million based on the quarter-to-date average FX rate. We are targeting non-GAAP operating income and free cash flow margins of mid teens.

Given the evolution of our partner ecosystem, we plan to increasingly rely on VTEX's ecosystem of system integrators for new customer implementations.

We are confident in VTEX's ability to capitalize on current market opportunities. We are empowering our customers to digitally transform their commerce operations while helping them to outperform the market.

The business outlook provided above constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws and is based on a number of assumptions and subject to a number of risks. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond VTEX's control. See the cautionary note regarding "Forward-Looking Statements" below. Fluctuations in VTEX's operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment. There can not be an assurance that VTEX will achieve these results.

Transition to U.S. GAAP Reporting

As part of our ongoing efforts to enhance financial transparency and comparability with industry peers, VTEX intends to transition its financial reporting standards from IFRS to U.S. GAAP (GAAP) beginning from the fiscal year commencing on January 1, 2025.

We believe that adopting GAAP may expand our access to a broader investor base, facilitate inclusion in additional stock indices, and improve financial reporting alignment within our sector.

Our Board of Directors has approved this transition, and we will be seeking shareholder approval at the annual shareholders meeting to be held on April 25, 2025. If approved, the transition is expected to become effective in the first quarter of 2025.

To support this change, we will furnish supplementary financial information on April 15, 2025, providing a reconciliation from IFRS to GAAP.

Preliminarily, the primary impacts of this transition will be:

Share-based compensation: GAAP allows for "straight-line" ratable expense recognition instead of "graded" front-loaded expense recognition, which is currently done under IFRS. Payroll taxes and social charges related to share-based compensation are recognized on the vesting date under GAAP, unlike IFRS, where these expenses are allocated progressively throughout the vesting period. These changes may introduce quarterly fluctuations in our Income from Operations.
Hyperinflationary Currency Adjustment: under GAAP, VTEX Argentina's, whilst operating in a highly inflationary economy, will be subject to specific accounting treatment, where its figures will be remeasured as if its functional currency were U.S. dollars. Consequently, this change would result in the reversal of the non-cash adjustment of hyperinflation under IFRS. This change may mainly impact our Financial Result.
Leases: GAAP classifies office leases as operating leases, whereas under IFRS, office leases are accounted for as finance leases. These changes may impact the classification of expenses while not resulting in material differences in total lease expenses.
Income tax accounting: this will be affected by the above accounting changes, in addition to various tax-specific guidance, including the requirements and methodologies for deferred tax recognition and valuation allowances.

Preliminarily, the above topics are expected to have an immaterial impact on revenue, gross profit, non-GAAP operating income. Free cash flow should be adjusted by the operational leasing reclassification, while net income should have a negative impact in 2023 and a positive impact in 2024, both primarily driven by the remeasurement of Argentina's figures as if its functional currency were USD and the reversal of the non-cash adjustment of hyperinflation financial expense.

This announcement contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended. Statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature, including statements about the VTEX strategies and business plans, are forward-looking, and the words "anticipate," "believe," "continues," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "strategy," "project," "target" and similar expressions and future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," "might," "can," "may," or similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.

VTEX may also make forward-looking statements in its periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, in press releases and other written materials and in oral statements made by its officers and directors. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on the VTEX's current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, many of which are beyond VTEX's control. A number of factors and risks could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Further information regarding these and other risks is included in VTEX filings with the SEC.

As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statements in this announcement. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented as there is no guarantee that expected events, trends or results will actually occur. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events or for any other reason.
