Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for standing by, and welcome to the Cantaloupe, Incorporated First Quarter Fiscal Year 2022 Earnings Conference Call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. After the speaker's presentation, there'll be a question-and-answer session. I would now like to hand the conference over to your first speaker today, Alicia Nieva-Woodgate, Vice President of Corporate Communications and Investor Relations for Cantaloupe, Inc. Please go ahead. Thank you, and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the Cantaloupe First Quarter Earnings Conference Call. With me on the call this afternoon is Sean Feeney, Chief Executive Officer, Wayne Jackson, Chief Financial Officer, and Ravi Venkatesan, Chief Technology Officer. Before we begin today's call, I would like to remind you that all statements included in this call, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking in nature. Actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements because of certain factors, included but not limited to business, financial, markets, and economic conditions. A detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from such forward-looking statements is included with our filings with the SEC and in the press release issued earlier today. Listeners are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which reflect management's view only as of the date they are made. Cantaloupe undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, or otherwise. This call will also include a discussion of certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful for, among other things, evaluating Cantaloupe's operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental to and not a substitute for GAAP financial measures such as net income or loss. Details of these non-GAAP financial measures, a presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and a reconciliation between these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as the most comparable GAAP financial measures, can be found in our press release issued this afternoon, which has also been posted on the investor relations section of our website at www.cantaloupe.com. With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Chief Executive Officer, Sean Feeney. Sean? Thank you, Alicia, and thank you everyone for joining us on our first call of the new fiscal year. Before I dive into the business update, I want to point out that starting this quarter, we are providing additional visibility into our financials by breaking out revenue streams and operating expenses differently, which you can see in our earnings press release and which Wayne will describe in more detail. This disclosure aligns more closely with the way we internally manage the business. We had a strong start to fiscal year 2022, with first- quarter revenues increasing 24% year-over-year, driven by a 34% increase in transaction revenues and 37% increase in equipment revenue over the prior year quarter. Relating to our transaction revenues, our volumes are now exceeding pre-pandemic highs. Comparing the current quarter to prior fiscal year quarter, total dollar volumes increased by 36%. Active customers increased by 17%, and active devices were up 3%. We are seeing continued demand for Cantaloupe's products and services. Over the last few weeks, I've been meeting with operators to hear more about trends they are seeing in the market and how we can help them. It is clear from these conversations that customers have an increased level of confidence in their business outlook. The return to schools, and the need for the digitization of payments are all positively impacting our business. Operators continue to provide feedback that our Seed Pro software is helping them keep up with these trends, as well as helping them to navigate supply chain issues and the tight labor market. Plain and simple, our software enables operators to be more efficient. A few weeks ago, we highlighted Seed Pro and Seed Office's very positive impact on Food Express, a new client and one of America's fastest-growing food service operators located in the Southeast. In August, we acquired Yoke Payments. The initial customer reaction to the combination of Yoke and our Seed Markets product has been resoundingly positive. Seed software, combined with Yoke's point-of-sale platform, offers our customers a unique solution for micromarkets. Every operator I've spoken to recently is looking to add micromarkets to high-value locations and redeploy vending machines in other parts of their operation. Micromarkets are expected to grow somewhere between 15% and 30% this calendar year, and growth is expected to accelerate into calendar 2022, according to Automatic Merchandiser's 2021 State of the Industry report. Another trend influencing our industry is EMV enablement, which is going to have a significant impact on hardware spend for our customers as card issuers begin to enforce compliance over the next year. Cantaloupe has the largest footprint of EMV-compliant devices in the U.S., and we are working with customers who are not yet EMV-compliant to upgrade their devices over the coming months. We also continue to see a rise in M&A activity in the unattended retail space. In many cases, this is driving conversion to Seed software and adoption of ePorts as larger enterprise clients add incremental routes and points of sale to their operations. We expect this trend to continue. These trends, including an improving business outlook, labor shortages, EMV enablement, and consolidation in the marketplace, are all driving forces behind our growth initiatives. Now, turning to a few updates on our product roadmap. We are currently shipping ePort Engage, our next-gen touchscreen interactive device. Engage offers best-in-class networking, security, and interactivity, is EMV compliant, and accepts all forms of contact and contactless payments. As discussed at NAMA, one of our strategic pillars is to help our customers better engage their customers, which the Engage device, combined with Seed, enables. Over the next few months, we will be rolling out our more mobile engagement loyalty upgrade, which will provide additional functionalities, including the first acceptance of crypto, as well as further loyalty rewards and other payment methods. This initiative follows our announced partnership with Bakkt earlier this year. Lastly, we launched our Campus Card Solution, which simplifies payment transactions for students, so they can use their Apple mobile wallets to pay for goods and services directly on campus. We remain committed to investing in sales and service capabilities. Last week, we hosted our first Seed University since the pandemic, held over two days here in Atlanta. It was a resounding success, with over 140 customers attending, including a number of whom were unable to make it to NAMA in August. We are working expeditiously on 2G and 3G upgrades within our existing customer base, while also targeting expansion opportunities, resulting in new equipment and subscription sales with both new and existing customers. During the quarter, we welcomed Refreshments, Inc, a large Coke bottler with a full- line vending business. They bought a full suite of Seed software services. The Florida Department of Education's Division of Blind Services was another notable win. We also have customers who have converted from competing technology to Seed. During the quarter, we saw Seed expansion at Legends Commerce in their Maryland location, which included conversions to Seed from competitors' products at two companies they acquired, which were Jel-Cap and Vending Plus. To wrap up, we are excited to see the continued adoption and growth of unattended retail. We have spent the past year developing and executing on a robust roadmap to keep pace with the trends and expectations of consumers. While we still have work to do, we are well-positioned to help our customers adapt to new trends while continuing to provide solutions to better engage customers, grow sales, and improve efficiency. With that, I would like to turn the call over to Wayne to go over the financials in greater detail. Wayne? Thanks, Sean. Good afternoon, everyone. As Sean noted, we're disclosing a breakout of subscription and transaction revenue in our revenue footnote. In addition, we have revised the presentation of operating expenses in our income statement by disaggregating selling, general, and administrative expenses. The new presentation is intended to provide additional transparency and reflects in more detail how we manage our business. From a financial perspective, we had a solid quarter. Q1 FY 2022 revenue was $45.8 million, a 24% increase year-over-year, driven by record transaction and subscription fees of $26.4 million and $14.2 million, respectively. Transaction fees grew 34% year-over-year and 8% sequentially. Subscription fees increased 6% year-over-year and 2% sequentially. Equipment revenue for the first quarter was $5.2 million, a 37% year-over-year increase, but down sequentially following a record high amount in Q4 FY 2021. We are seeing increased momentum in the equipment pipeline, with strong orders continuing into the second quarter. Active customers totaled almost 21,000 as of September 30, 2021, compared to approximately 18,000 as of September 30, 2020, an increase of 17% year-over-year and 5% sequentially over Q4 FY 2021. Active devices totaled 1.1 million as of September 30, 2021, an increase of 3% year-over-year. Total gross margin for the quarter was 32.5%, down from 38.6% in the prior year fiscal first quarter, but up 2% sequentially. As a reminder, Q1 FY 2021 benefited from a one-time out-of-period adjustment. Subscription and transaction revenue margin was 35.9%, reflecting a higher mix of transaction revenue versus the prior year quarter's gross margin of 41.6%. Equipment revenue margin for Q1 FY 2022 decreased to 5.3% from 12.4% in the prior year. Last year's equipment sales margins benefited from the out-of-period adjustment mentioned earlier. As I previously noted, we now break out operating expenses in greater detail in our financial statements. Rather than total selling, general, and administrative expenses, we now disclose sales and marketing costs, technology and product costs, and general administrative costs. Total operating expenses in the first quarter totaled $16 million, compared to $17.9 million in Q1 FY 2021, a 10% decrease over the prior year, driven by lower G&A expenses. As noted in our prior earnings call, we are reinvesting some of these G&A savings into our growth initiatives. During the current quarter compared to the prior year fiscal quarter, our sales and marketing expenses increased 46%, and our technology and development expenses increased 68%. Meanwhile, our G&A expenses were down approximately 40% year-over-year, primarily due to a reduction of outside consulting costs during the current quarter. Other income for the quarter was $0.1 million compared to a loss of $3 million in the first quarter of the prior year, which included charges associated with last year's debt refinancing. Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the first quarter was $1.6 million or negative 2 cents per share, compared to a loss of $6.9 million or negative 11 cents per share in the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA was $1.9 million in the first quarter, compared to $5 million in the fourth quarter and -$0.5 million in the prior year period. Relating to our balance sheet and liquidity, we ended the first quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $82.5 million. Turning to our guidance, we remain confident in our previously issued guidance and continue to expect revenues to be between $200 million and $210 million, representing year-over-year growth of 20%-26%. We expect transaction and subscription revenues to grow consistently throughout the year as businesses return to offices. Anticipated equipment revenue is weighted towards the second half of the fiscal year due to 3G upgrades and growing momentum in our Engage device. Net loss applicable to common shares is expected to be between $7 million and $5 million. Adjusted EBITDA to range between $8.5 million and $10.5 million. We expect to generate $8 million to $10 million in cash flow from operations. Lastly, capital expenditures will range from $12 million to $14 million. I will now turn the call over to the operator for Q&A. Operator? Thank you. We will now open the call to questions. Please limit the call to two questions. If you have additional questions, please add yourself back to the queue. Thank you. We will now take our first question. Our first question comes from the line of Chris Kennedy of William Blair. Your line is now open. Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the question, and I appreciate the new disclosure. On the subscription revenue up 6% in the quarter, how has that trended relative to history? Wayne? Hi. Thanks for the question. This is Wayne. Sequentially is a good indicator right now. It's going about 2% a year. The reason I say that, if we look at fiscal 2020 in the last two quarters of that year, we had some credits related to COVID. Maybe start looking at what we've disclosed in FY 2021 and first quarter 2022 as sort of the trend line on the sequential growth, if that makes sense. Sure. T hat does. Just broadly, can you talk about the gross margin profile between subscription fees and transaction fees? Thanks a lot, guys. Sure. That one is subscription fees are very similar to traditional SaaS fees that you would expect. Transaction fees are very, you know, much lower margin, but much bigger numbers. Okay. Understood. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Mike Latimore from Northland Capital. Your line is now open. Great. Thank you. T he additional clarity is great. In terms of the subscription line, can you just talk a little bit about the key drivers for that line over the next year? I s it new connections, fee cross-sell, new products? How would you prioritize the key drivers for subscription over the next year? Sure. Thanks, Mike. The key drivers for subscription number one, I'm very happy to begin calling our subscription revenue subscription versus license. I feel like we've come into the current century now. We get subscription from two areas. One is, we get a subscription fee for managing devices, and of course, we get it for the Seed software. Both of those will be important contributors as we look forward, and we begin to see, you know, more devices coming back online as we hope offices return to some normalcy in the second half of our year. We have a lot of Seed activity going on now as operators are more confident and beginning to look at expanding that. Also in the second half and into next year, you'll begin to see some of the additional modules which we will charge additional subscription fees for coming online and beginning to get those. Small impact in this fiscal year, but should be stronger in the next year. Also, remember, we get a subscription fee from our new Yoke product. While the numbers are small now, we are beginning to accelerate with the release of version 2 very soon, and you'll begin to see that contribute as well. Yes, Connections, Reactivations, Seed, and Yoke will all drive the subscription line for the remainder of this year and really begin to contribute in FY 2023. Got it. Transaction volumes are above pre-COVID levels. I guess the office category, I think, is generally lagged. Maybe can you give a little update on patterns in the office you're seeing? I think that, what most operators are telling me is I've spent a lot of time with them, as has Ravi, they're getting more and more confident. What they're unsure of is kind of when people return to the office, exactly what that looks like. In some cases, people will come back and may be in the office fully for five days a week. In some cases, operators are telling us that it's 2-3 days. What the operators have learned is to ask what coming back to the office means to you and how that they then will react to that. We had planned for this year in our guidance, a gradual return to the office, and I think we will begin to see that in January. We're of course very interested to see kind of whether the OSHA announcements today, you know, begin to drive that and increase in velocity. I think everyone has a different view on kind of what being back in the office looks like for businesses going forward. Most operators that I talk to say that it'll probably take at least through calendar 2022, if not well into calendar 2023, before we see a fully back in the offices. That's what we plan for in our guidance. Got it. Okay, thanks. Your next question comes from the line of Gary Prestopino from Barrington Research. Your line is now open. All right, good afternoon, all. Hey, Sean. When you were talking about volumes, picking up on the last question, is that transaction volumes? You said they were up 30% sequentially, or 30% year-over-year, or is it dollar volumes? Year-over-year. Dollar volumes, I believe were up that number. Wayne, you've got the number right there. I've got it here, Gary. Dollar volumes are up 36%. Number of unit volume is up 28%. Unit 28%. Okay, that's great. You mentioned that, with Yoke and Seed, you have a unique solution for the micro markets. Could you maybe just elaborate a little bit on that? W hat you can do in the market versus some of the competitors out there? Well, I think when you look at it from the point-of-sale device, Gary, we didn't have an offering there. Bringing that strengthens our offering. When you look at Seed Markets, what we've been told and what we've seen is that we think that's the leading product in the market. The combination of the two brings together a strong point-of-sale offering, along with the best Seed Markets product. The strength of Seed is we service all part of the operator's business, and it's an area that we'll be investing in a lot to combine the Yoke platform with the Seed Markets to build out differentiation going forward. Does your competitor, Nayax, have the same capabilities with POS and software, or are you the only one out there in the market with this? Nayax does not have the software capability that we have. They do have the point of sale, and you know, they are you know just getting started in micro markets as we are. Thank you. As a reminder, to ask a question, you will need to press star one on your telephone. Again, that's star and then the number one for you to ask a question. Your next question comes from the line of George Sutton from Craig-Hallum. Your line is now open. Thank you. Sean, I wondered if you could walk a little more through the EMV enablement in terms of the push and pull of hardware, and other services that you're trying to offer as that process is taking place. Sure, George. Thanks. That's a great question. EMV, most of the devices that we've shipped over the recent years and months are all EMV compliant. The EMV non-compliant devices are mainly older devices that are out there, many of which may be 3G, so they kinda fall in line with the 3G upgrade, and others where the swipe and dip is EMV compliant, but the touchless part isn't. The exposure is much less than what we saw with 3G - 4G, but some very large customers, really across the full customer base, and we're working with them to get them fully EMV compliant. As I said in the text, we already have the most devices out there that are EMV- compliant. We're just working with the ones that we need to either upgrade to a new device or an over-the-air upgrade or a bezel upgrade in some cases. Gotcha. Something that we continually hear when we're doing channel checks and has never been discussed on a call are the remote price change capability that you've built in. It seems to be very well received. How are you charging for that? How is that driving additional business for you? We just thought it deserves some attention given what we're hearing out there. Yes. I'm gonna ask Ravi to answer that 'cause he is the RPC expert, and he and I have been on the road a lot talking to operators about that. Ravi, you wanna talk about RPC? George, you're absolutely right. It's a much- demanded feature, especially with inflation and, you know, the need to sort of react to suppliers changing prices for our customers and then, passing that on. The way we plan to charge for it is typically on a per-device per-month basis. It's a classic add-on SaaS play where there's an additional module that we will provide our customers and charge on a per-device per-month basis. Perfect. Thanks for the help, guys. Appreciate it. There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call back to Sean Feeney. Please go ahead. Thanks, operator. As I said at the beginning, we're off to a strong start for Fiscal Year 2022. I know tonight is a busy earnings night, and we appreciate your attention and look forward to talking to you guys either this evening or over the coming weeks with many other investors. We're excited about what we're doing and looking forward to a great year. Thank you. This concludes today's conference call. Thank you everyone for participating. You may now disconnect.
