About Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
JFrog discloses the following non-GAAP financial measures in this release and the earnings call
referencing this press release: non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP gross profit, non-
GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses (research and development, sales and
marketing, general and administrative), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss),
non-GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share, non-GAAP net income (loss) per basic share, and
free cash flow. JFrog uses each of these non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand
and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting and forecasting
purposes, for short- and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate JFrog’s financial performance.
JFrog believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating its
operational performance, as further discussed below. JFrog’s non-GAAP financial measures may
not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in its
industry, as other companies in its industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently,
particularly related to non-recurring and unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using
non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in
accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other
companies and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on JFrog’s reported financial
results.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for,
financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the historical non-
GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in
the financial statement tables included below in this press release. A reconciliation of non-GAAP
guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis
without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of,
reconciling items that may be incurred in the future such as share-based compensation, the
effect of which may be significant.
sales and marketing, general and administrative), non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating
margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) as the respective
GAAP balances, adjusted for, as applicable: (1) share-based compensation expense; (2) the
amortization of acquired intangibles; (3) acquisition-related costs; and (4) income tax effects.
financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors and others in
assessing JFrog’s operating performance due to the following factors:
Share-based compensation. JFrog utilizes share-based compensation to attract and retain
employees. It is principally aimed at aligning their interests with those of its shareholders and at
long-term retention, rather than to address operational performance for any particular period. As
a result, share-based compensation expenses vary for reasons that are generally unrelated to
financial and operational performance in any particular period.
Amortization of acquired intangibles. JFrog views amortization of acquired intangible assets as
items arising from pre-acquisition activities determined at the time of an acquisition. While these
intangible assets are evaluated for impairment regularly, amortization of the cost of acquired
intangibles is an expense that is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.
Acquisition-related costs. Acquisition-related costs include expenses related to acquisitions of
other companies. JFrog views acquisition-related costs as expenses that are not necessarily
reflective of operational performance during a period.
Income tax effects. JFrog’s non-GAAP financial results are adjusted for income tax effects related to
these non-GAAP adjustments and changes in our assessment regarding the realizability of our
deferred tax assets, if any. Excluding income tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments provides a
more accurate view of JFrog’s operating results.
Non-GAAP weighted average share count. Diluted GAAP and non-GAAP weighted-average shares are
the same, except in periods that there is a GAAP loss and a non-GAAP income. The non-GAAP
weighted-average shares used to compute the non-GAAP net income per share – diluted are
adjusted to reflect dilution equal to the dilutive impact had there been GAAP income.
Additionally, JFrog’s management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure, free cash flow, is
meaningful to investors because management reviews cash flows generated from operations
after taking into consideration capital expenditures due to the fact that these expenditures are
considered to be a necessary component of ongoing operations.
Operating Metrics
JFrog’s number of customers with annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) of $100,000 or more is based
on the ARR of each customer, as of the last month of the quarter. JFrog’s number of customers
with ARR of $1 million or more is based on the ARR of each customer, as of the last month of the
quarter. JFrog defines ARR as the annualized revenue run-rate of subscription agreements from
all customers as of the last month of the quarter. The ARR includes monthly subscription
customers, so long as JFrog generates revenue from these customers. JFrog annualizes its
monthly subscriptions by taking the revenue it would contractually expect to receive from such
customers in a given month and multiplying it by 12.
JFrog’s net dollar retention rate compares its ARR from the same set of customers across
comparable periods. JFrog calculates net dollar retention rate by first identifying customers (the
“Base Customers”), which were customers in the last month of a particular quarter (the “Base
Quarter”). JFrog then calculates the contracted ARR from these Base Customers in the last month
of the same quarter of the subsequent year (the “Comparison Quarter”). This calculation captures
upsells, contraction, and attrition since the Base Quarter. JFrog then divides total Comparison
Quarter ARR by total Base Quarter ARR for Base Customers. JFrog’s net dollar retention rate in a
particular quarter is obtained by averaging the result from that particular quarter with the
corresponding results from each of the prior three quarters.
