Okta, Inc. (Nasdaq: OKTA), the leading independent identity
provider, today announced financial results for its first quarter
ended April 30, 2023.
“We started the new fiscal year with strong non-GAAP operating
profit and record cash flow, which is a testament to the actions
we’ve taken to increase efficiency and profitability,” said Todd
McKinnon, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Okta. “Identity
is a key building block for projects around the long-term trends of
zero trust security, digital transformation, and cloud adoption. As
the leading independent and neutral identity partner, Okta is the
choice for over 18,000 organizations’ most critical initiatives.
While macroeconomic pressures are increasing, we are well
positioned to advance our leadership position by delivering
valuable product innovation to our customers while delivering
non-GAAP profitable growth to our shareholders.”
First Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights:

25% year-over-year. Subscription revenue was $503 million, an
increase of 26% year-over-year.
- RPO: RPO, or subscription backlog, was $2.94 billion, an
increase of 9% year-over-year. cRPO, which is subscription backlog

- GAAP Operating Loss: GAAP operating loss was $160
million, or (31)% of total revenue, compared to a GAAP operating
loss of $240 million, or (58)% of total revenue, in the first

- Non-GAAP Operating Income/Loss: Non-GAAP operating
income was $37 million, or 7% of total revenue, compared to
non-GAAP operating loss of $41 million, or (10)% of total revenue,
in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
- GAAP Net Loss: GAAP net loss was $119 million, compared
to a GAAP net loss of $243 million in the first quarter of fiscal

$2.37 billion at April 30, 2023. During the quarter, the company
repurchased $366 million principal amount of the convertible senior
notes due in 2025, resulting in a gain on early extinguishment of
debt of $31 million.
The section titled "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below contains
a description of the non-GAAP financial measures, and
reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP information are contained
in the tables below.
Financial Outlook:
For the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company expects:
- Total revenue of $533 million to $535 million, representing a
growth rate of 18% year-over-year;
- Current RPO of $1.71 billion to $1.72 billion, representing a
growth rate of 14% to 15% year-over-year;
- Non-GAAP operating income of $36 million to $38 million;
and
- Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.21 to $0.22,
assuming diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of
approximately 180 million and a non-GAAP tax rate of 26%.
For the full year fiscal 2024, the Company now expects:
- Total revenue of $2.175 billion to $2.185 billion, representing
a growth rate of 17% to 18% year-over-year;
- Non-GAAP operating income of $161 million to $170 million;
- Non-GAAP diluted net income per share of $0.88 to $0.93,
assuming diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of
approximately 180 million and a non-GAAP tax rate of 26%; and
- Non-GAAP free cash flow margin of approximately 12%.
These statements are forward-looking and actual results may
differ materially. Refer to the Forward-Looking Statements safe
harbor below for information on the factors that could cause our
actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking
statements.
Okta has not reconciled its forward-looking non-GAAP financial
measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because
certain items are out of Okta’s control or cannot be reasonably
predicted. Accordingly, reconciliations for forward-looking
non-GAAP financial measures are not available without unreasonable
effort.
Webcast Information:
Okta will host a live video webcast at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time on
May 31, 2023 to discuss the results and outlook. The news release
with the financial results will be accessible from the Company’s
website at investor.okta.com prior to the webcast. The live video
webcast will be accessible from the Okta investor relations website
at investor.okta.com.
Supplemental Financial and Other Information:
Supplemental financial and other information can be accessed
through the Company’s investor relations website at
investor.okta.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release and the accompanying tables contain the
following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit,
non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP
operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net margin,
non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, non-GAAP
tax rate, free cash flow and free cash flow margin. Certain of
these non-GAAP financial measures exclude stock-based compensation,
non-cash charitable contributions, amortization of acquired
intangibles, acquisition and integration-related expenses,
restructuring costs related to severance and termination benefits
and lease impairments in connection with the closing of certain
leased facilities, amortization of debt issuance costs and (gain)
loss on early extinguishment of debt. Acquisition and
integration-related expenses include transaction costs and other
non-recurring incremental costs incurred through the one-year
anniversary of the transaction close.
Stock-based compensation is non-cash in nature and is generally
fixed at the time the stock-based instrument is granted and
amortized over a period of several years. Although stock-based
compensation is an important aspect of the compensation of our
employees and executives, the expense for the fair value of the
stock-based instruments we utilize may bear little resemblance to
the actual value realized upon the vesting or future exercise of
the related stock-based awards. We believe excluding stock-based
compensation provides meaningful supplemental information regarding
the long-term performance of our core business and facilitates
comparison of our results to those of peer companies.
We also exclude non-cash charitable contributions, amortization
of acquired intangibles, acquisition and integration-related
expenses, restructuring costs related to severance and termination
benefits and lease impairments in connection with the closing of
certain leased facilities, amortization of debt issuance costs and
(gain) loss on early extinguishment of debt from the applicable
non-GAAP financial measures because these adjustments are
considered by management to be outside of our core operating
results.
In addition to these exclusions, starting in fiscal 2024, we
subtract an assumed provision for income taxes to calculate
non-GAAP net income. We utilize a fixed long-term projected tax
rate of 26% in our computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision
to provide better consistency across the reporting periods. The
non-GAAP tax rate could be subject to change for a variety of
reasons, including changes in tax laws and regulations, significant
changes in our geographic earnings mix, or other changes to our
strategy or business operations. We will periodically reevaluate
the projected long-term tax rate, as necessary, for significant
events, based on our ongoing analysis of relevant tax law changes,
material changes in the forecasted geographic earnings mix, and any
significant acquisitions.
We define Free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net
cash provided by operating activities, less cash used for purchases
of property and equipment, net of sales proceeds, and capitalized
software. Free cash flow margin is calculated as Free cash flow
divided by total revenue. We use free cash flow as a measure of
financial progress in our business, as it balances operating
results, cash management, and capital efficiency. We believe
information regarding free cash flow provides investors and others
with an important perspective on the cash available to make
strategic acquisitions and investments, to fund ongoing operations,
and to fund other capital expenditures. Free cash flow can be
volatile and is sensitive to many factors, including changes in
working capital and timing of capital expenditures. Working capital
at any specific point in time is subject to many variables,
including seasonality, the discretionary timing of expense
payments, discounts offered by vendors, vendor payment terms, and
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
We periodically reassess the components of our non-GAAP
adjustments for changes in how we evaluate our performance, changes
in how we make financial and operational decisions, and consider
the use of these measures by our competitors and peers to ensure
the adjustments remain relevant and meaningful.
Okta believes that non-GAAP financial information, when taken
collectively with GAAP financial measures, may be helpful to
investors because it provides consistency and comparability with
past financial performance and assists in comparisons with other
companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information
to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial
information is presented for supplemental informational purposes
only, and should not be considered a substitute for financial
information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different
from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other
companies.
The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is
that they exclude significant expenses that are required by GAAP to
be recorded in the Company’s financial statements. In addition,
they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the
exercise of judgment by the Company's management about which
expenses are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP
financial measures. A reconciliation is provided below for each
non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable
financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP.
Okta encourages investors to review the related GAAP financial
measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial
measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures,
which it includes in press releases announcing quarterly financial
results, including this press release, and not to rely on any
single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
Forward-Looking Statements: This press release contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe
harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995, including but not limited to, statements regarding our
financial outlook, business strategy and plans, market trends and
market size, opportunities and positioning. These forward-looking
statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts
and projections. Words such as "expect," "anticipate," "should,"
"believe," "hope," "target," "project," "goals," "estimate,"
"potential," "predict," "may," "will," "might," "could," "intend,"
"shall" and variations of these terms and similar expressions are
intended to identify these forward-looking statements, although not
all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that
are beyond our control. For example, the market for our products
may develop more slowly than expected or than it has in the past;
there may be significant fluctuations in our results of operations
and cash flows related to our revenue recognition or otherwise; we
may not achieve expected synergies and efficiencies of operations
between Okta and Auth0, and we may not be able to successfully
integrate the companies; global economic conditions could worsen; a
network or data security incident that allows unauthorized access
to our network or data or our customers’ data could damage our
reputation and cause us to incur significant costs; we could
experience interruptions or performance problems associated with
our technology, including a service outage; and we may not be able
to pay off our convertible senior notes when due. Further
information on potential factors that could affect our financial
results is included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K
and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The forward-looking statements included in this press release
represent our views only as of the date of this press release and
we assume no obligation and do not intend to update these
forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss), Non-GAAP Net Margin and Non-GAAP
Net Income (Loss) Per Share, Basic and Diluted
We define Non-GAAP net income (loss) and Non-GAAP net margin as
GAAP net loss and GAAP net margin, adjusted for stock-based
compensation expense, non-cash charitable contributions,
amortization of acquired intangibles, acquisition and
integration-related expenses, amortization of debt issuance costs,
gain on early extinguishment of debt and restructuring costs
related to severance and termination benefits and lease impairments
in connection with the closing of certain leased facilities. In
addition, starting in fiscal 2024, we subtract an assumed provision
for income taxes to calculate non-GAAP net income. We utilize a
fixed long-term projected tax rate of 26% in our computation of the
non-GAAP income tax provision to provide better consistency across
the reporting periods.
We define Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic, as
Non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by GAAP weighted-average shares
used to compute net loss per share, basic and diluted.
We define Non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, diluted, as
Non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by GAAP weighted-average shares
used to compute net loss per share, basic and diluted adjusted for
the potentially dilutive effect of (i) employee equity incentive
plans, excluding the impact of unrecognized stock-based
compensation expense, and (ii) convertible senior notes outstanding
and related warrants. In addition, Non-GAAP net income (loss) per
share, diluted, includes the impact of our note hedge and capped
call agreements on convertible senior notes outstanding, as
applicable. The note hedge and capped call agreements are intended
to offset potential dilution to our Class A common stock upon any
conversion or settlement of the convertible senior notes under
certain circumstances. Accordingly, we did not record any
adjustments for the potential impact of the convertible senior
notes outstanding under the if-converted method.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin
We define Free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net
cash provided by operating activities, less cash used for purchases
of property and equipment, net of sales proceeds, and capitalized
software. Free cash flow margin is calculated as Free cash flow
divided by total revenue.
In fiscal 2024, we updated our definition of Free cash flow to
include on-premise software purchases in addition to capitalized
internal-use software costs within capitalized software.
