  • Healthy revenue growth coupled with gross and operating margin improvement drives strong year over year fourth quarter and full year 2024 financial results
  • 2024 GAAP earnings per share swings positive with net cash provided by operating activities up more than eight-fold to $71.9 million
  • Disciplined capital allocation highlighted by paydown of high-interest bank-debt and repurchase of $50 million out of the $100 million authorized in 2024
  • Sustained strong balance sheet with cash and marketable securities of $389.3 million with $9.1 million of long-term debt at year end 2024

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: AVDX), a leading provider of accounts payable (AP) automation software and payment solutions for middle market businesses and their suppliers, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year-ended December 31, 2024.

“We are very pleased with our financial results, ending 2024 on solid financial footing. 2024 saw non-GAAP gross margin expansion to 73.6% from 69.4% in 2023, while adjusted EBITDA margins grew to 19.3% from 8.0% on the back of strong operating leverage. We remain in a strong financial position due to the strong execution on our transformational value proposition of accounts payable and payments automation aimed at our middle market buyer customers and their supplier customers through our proprietary two-sided network. With AvidXchange’s best-of-breed solution, we aim to unlock efficiency, visibility and control for our buyer customers’ procure-to-pay process, while advancing efficiency, predictability and support for our supplier customers’ order to cash needs. While we expect to see continued margin expansion in 2025, we are also anticipating that continued macro headwinds will impact revenue growth. That said, given the ERP integration and strategic partnerships signed in 2024, as the ones signed in 2023 begin to scale, combined with the ramp of our differentiated products such as Payment Accelerator 2.0 and Pay 2.0 as we seek to continue to leverage AI across our business ecosystem, we believe we are continuing to strengthen our competitive position while laying the building blocks for operating performance momentum as the year progresses, thereby advancing our growth, profit and value creation objectives,” said Michael Praeger, Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder of AvidXchange.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Highlights:

  • Total revenue was $115.4 million, an increase of 10.9% year-over-year, compared with $104.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Revenue included interest income of $12.2 million compared with $13.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • GAAP net income was $4.7 million, compared with a GAAP net loss of $(4.5) million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Non-GAAP net income was $17.3 million, compared with $9.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • GAAP gross profit was $78.8 million, or 68.2% of total revenue, compared with $67.3 million, or 64.6% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Non-GAAP gross profit was $86.4 million, or 74.9% of total revenue, compared with $74.4 million, or 71.4% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $26.3 million compared with $15.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures has been provided in the tables following the financial statements in this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Measures and Other Performance Metrics.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Key Business Metrics and Highlights:

Full Year 2025 Financial Outlook

As of February 26, 2025, AvidXchange anticipates its Full Year 2025 revenue, adjusted EBITDA and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) to be in the following ranges (in millions, except per share data):                                                                       

      Current
FY 2025 Guidance
 
    Revenue (1&2) $453.0 – $460.0  
    Adjusted EBITDA(1,2&3) $86.0 – $91.0  
    Non-GAAP Diluted EPS(3) $0.25 – $0.27  
         
(1) The current FY 2025 guidance anticipates interest revenue contribution of approximately $44.0 million compared to $49.7 million in 2024.
(2) The current FY 2025 guidance does not anticipate political revenues compared to approximately $6.6 million in 2024.
(3) Reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP diluted EPS to basic and diluted EPS on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the items excluded from the non-GAAP measures.

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In this context, forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance and often contain words such as: “anticipate,” “assume,” “intend,” “aim,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “believe,” “outlook,” “project,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “continue,” “will” and similar words and phrases indicating future results. The information presented or statements made in this press release, or during the earnings call, related to our beliefs and expectations of future performance, including our plans, strategies and financial performance; our 2025 guidance including our expected revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS for the full year 2025; the solid footing and continued strength of our financial position, operating leverage, and execution on behalf of buyers and suppliers; the macroeconomic outlook and potential impacts within verticals in which we have domain expertise; expectations regarding margin expansion, scalability, value, opportunity size, transformational aspect of impacts, penetration, and momentum derived from our integration and strategic partnerships and our new and existing products, services, and systems; our ability to leverage AI within our operations, products, and services; our competitive position including our customers’ perceptions of the value proposition of our AP automation software and payments services; the impact of our operating priorities on our potential growth and margin expansion; our ability to improve the customer experience across our suite of products and services; the timing of revenue impacts; and other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact, are forward-looking in nature.  These forward-looking statements are made on the basis of management’s current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. We therefore cannot guarantee future results, performance or achievements.   

Factors which could cause actual results or effects to differ materially from those reflected in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risk factors and other cautionary statements described, from time to time, in AvidXchange’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including, without limitation, AvidXchange’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents filed with the SEC, which may be obtained on the investor relations section of our website (https://ir.avidxchange.com/) and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.  Any forward-looking statements made by us in this press release are based only on information currently available to us and speak only as of the date they are made, and we assume no obligation to update any of these statements in light of new information, future events or otherwise unless required under the federal securities laws.

Non-GAAP
Measures and Other Performance Metrics

To supplement the financial measures presented in our press release and related conference call in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we also present the following non-GAAP measures of financial performance: Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share.

A “non-GAAP financial measure” refers to a numerical measure of our historical or future financial performance or financial position that is included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our financial statements. We provide certain non-GAAP measures as additional information relating to our operating results as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a measure of liquidity. There are significant limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Further, these measures may differ from the non-GAAP information, even where similarly titled, used by other companies and therefore should not be used to compare our performance to that of other companies.

We have presented Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) and Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share in this press release. We define Non-GAAP Gross Profit & Gross Margin as revenue less cost of revenue excluding the portion of depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense allocated to cost of revenues. We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net loss before depreciation and amortization, impairment and write-off of intangible assets, interest income and expense, income tax expense (benefit), stock-based compensation expense, transaction and acquisition-related costs expensed, change in fair value of derivative instrument, non-recurring items not indicative of ongoing operations, and charitable contributions of common stock. We define Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) as net loss before amortization of acquired intangible assets, impairment and write-off of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, transaction and acquisition-related costs expensed, change in fair value of derivative instrument, non-recurring items not indicative of ongoing operations, acquisition-related effects on income tax, and charitable contributions of common stock. Non-GAAP income tax expense is calculated using our blended statutory rate except in periods of non-GAAP net loss when it is based on our GAAP income tax expense. In each case, non-GAAP income tax expense excludes the effects of acquisitions in the period on tax expense. We define Non-GAAP Earnings per Share as Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) per diluted share.

We believe the use of non-GAAP financial measures, as a supplement to GAAP measures, is useful to investors in that they eliminate items that are either not part of our core operations or do not require a cash outlay, such as stock-based compensation expense. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating operating performance and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures help indicate underlying trends in the business, are important in comparing current results with prior period results and are useful to investors and financial analysts in assessing operating performance.
