Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Performance Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial and other key performance measures: billings, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, free cash flow, subscription revenue, subscription billings, subscription revenue mix, subscription billings mix, professional services billings, Annual Contract Value Billings (or ACV Billings), and Run-rate Annual Contract Value (or Run-rate ACV). In computing these non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures, we exclude certain items such as stock-based compensation and the related income tax impact, costs associated with our acquisitions (such as amortization of acquired intangible assets, income tax-related impact, and other acquisition-related costs), impairment of operating lease-related assets, change in fair value of derivative liability, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, non-cash interest expense, other non-recurring transactions and the related tax impact, and the revenue and billings associated with pass-through hardware sales. Billings is a performance measure which we believe provides useful information to investors because it represents the amounts under binding purchase orders received by us during a given period that have been billed, and we calculate

billings by adding the change in deferred revenue between the start and end of the period to total revenue recognized in the same period. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-

Divider slide

GAAP net loss, and non-GAAP net loss per share are financial measures which we believe provide useful information to investors because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures such as stock-based compensation expense that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results. Free cash flow is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after necessary capital expenditures, and we define free cash flow as net cash (used in) provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. Subscription revenue, subscription billings, subscription revenue mix, subscription

billings mix, and professional services billings are performance measures that we believe provide useful information to our management and investors as they allow us to better track the growth of the subscription-based portion of our business, which is a critical part of our business plan. ACV Billings and Run-rate ACV are performance measures that we believe provide useful information to our management and investors as they allow us to better track the topline growth of our business during our transition to a subscription-based business model because they take into account variability in term

lengths. We use these non-GAAP financial and key performance measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. However, these non-GAAP financial and key performance measures have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Billings, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share, and free cash flow are not substitutes for total revenue, gross margin, operating expenses, net loss, net loss per share, or net cash (used in) provided by operating activities, respectively; subscription revenue is not a substitute for total revenue; and subscription and professional services billings are not substitutes for subscription and professional services revenue, respectively, or total revenue. There is no GAAP measure that is comparable to either ACV Billings or Run-rate ACV, so we have not reconciled the ACV Billings or Run-rate ACV numbers included in this presentation to any GAAP measure. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures as tools for comparison. We urge you to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures set forth in the tables captioned "GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations and Calculation of Billings" and "Disaggregation of Billings and Revenue" included in the appendix hereto, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

FY'19 total revenue growth would have been 26% without model transition

Subscription model offers tremendous long-term benefits despite top-line headwind during transition.88% of total billings and 89% of total revenue were subscription-based as of Q1'21

Q1'21 marked our shift of focus from TCV to ACV, making ACV a key metric for top-line performance

Management Commentary

Dheeraj Pandey

Chairman, Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer

"We are pleased with our financial performance in the first quarter, which marked a strong start to fiscal 2021 including increased adoption of new products as well as continued growth in our core hyperconverged infrastructure software. After launching our solutions on AWS in August, we announced a major partnership with Microsoft to develop our portfolio on Azure, placing the Nutanix HCI (Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure) at a significant competitive advantage to help our customers build out their hybrid and multicloud environments."

Duston Williams

Chief Financial Officer

"Our ACV-first strategy and solid go-to-market execution drove outperformance across all key financial metrics including ACV billings growth of 10 percent year-over-year and run-rate ACV growth of 29 percent year-over-year. Looking ahead, we remain focused on thoughtfully managing operating expenses as we continue to execute on our business model transformation and are confident in Nutanix's ability to drive long-term growth for the benefit of all stakeholders."

Nutanix Culture Principles

WE START WITH WHY...

...then the How, then the What. It helps us prioritize boulders, pebbles, and sand. With a beginner's mindset, we are curious about first principles.

HAVE BACKBONE; DISAGREE BUT COMMIT

Being authentic and respecting boundaries are how we build trust. Backbone is about brutal intellectual honesty, but also about committing.

There is no place for passive aggressive disagreements (indirect resistance) within.

WE HATE WASTE

It's our money, our property, our company.

As owners, we believe in sharing and leveraging common core, common data, and adjacencies. We fail fast and learn fast.

OBSESS OVER THE CUSTOMER & FRONTLINE

As insurgents, we are waging a war on behalf of the underserved customer, and against naysaying bureaucracy. We have an obsession for customer success. We win with honor.

HAVE BIAS FOR ACTION

Velocity is essential for survival. Balancing velocity and quality makes us thrive. Outcomes matter. We discern, design, and deliver.

DESIGN IS EVERYTHING!

Empathy drives design. We strive to reduce friction for the best end user experience.

Less-is-more, both in product and organizational design. We embrace the mundane, as we strive for elegant simplicity.

THINK BIG BUT START SMALL

A well-designed innovation engine is ambitious yet iterative, strategic yet detail-oriented, big-picture-biased yet milestone-based. We believe in a marathon of sprints.

BELIEVE IN STRIVING

We are a constantly learning, continuously improving, eternally evolving company with immense respect for the law of small improvements. We re-engineer, we re-factor, we take care of accumulated stress. We believe in long-term greed.

CELEBRATE AUTONOMY

We are a startup. It's still Day-1. We constantly disaggregate (products, organizations, decision-making), segment and delegate, while responsibly recomposing for a unified customer experience.

HIRE OFTEN AND HIRE DIVERSE

We celebrate people. We constantly evaluate, promote from within, and make bets on people who are different from us. We actively attract, retain, and motivate people from many backgrounds and perspectives. Being diverse is not optional; it is what we must be.

SHOW GRIT

We endure adversity. We are anti-fragile.

Every shock to the system makes us better. We celebrate failures and vulnerable leaders. Vulnerability connects us, and results in courage and integrity.

GET COMFORTABLE BEING UNCOMFORTABLE

Leaders accept ambiguity, are comfortable with change, and are adept at balancing paradoxes. We are big-hearted, tough decision-makers who are optimistic and paranoid simultaneously. Creators' monomaniacal focus and energy in bringing ideas to life are not always pleasant for those close to them.

Appendix

Endnotes

  • 1. Global 2000 (G2K) and Forbes 100 customer counts reflect yearly update to the members of both lists as reported by Forbes. Cumulative worldwide end-customer and G2K customer counts reflect standard adjustments to certain customer accounts within our system of record, and are rounded to the nearest 10.

  • 2. G2K lifetime purchase multiple is defined as total lifetime purchase divided by initial purchase using software and support bookings, for G2K customers that have been customers for over 18 months.

Definitions

ACV Billings, for any given period, is defined as the sum of the ACV for all contracts billed during the given period. Annual Contract Value, or ACV, is defined as the total annualized value of a contract, excluding amounts related to professional services and hardware. The total annualized value for a contract is calculated by dividing the total value of the contract by the number of years in the term of such contract, using, where applicable, an assumed term of five years for contracts that do not have a specified term. ACV Billings is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors as it allows us to better track the topline growth of our business during our transition to a subscription-based business model because it takes into account variability in term lengths. There is no GAAP measure that is comparable to ACV Billings, so we have not reconciled the ACV Billings numbers included in this presentation to any GAAP measure.

Run-rate ACV, at the end of any period, is the sum of ACV for all contracts that are in effect as of the end of that period. For the purposes of this calculation, we assume that the contract term begins on the date a contract is booked, irrespective of the periods in which we would recognize revenue for such contract. There is no GAAP measure that is comparable to Run-rate ACV, so we have not reconciled the Run-rate ACV numbers included in this presentation to any GAAP measure.

ACV Dollar-based Net Expansion. We believe that our ACV Dollar-based net expansion rate provides insight into our ability to retain and increase revenue from our customers, as well as their potential long-term value to us. Accordingly, we compare the aggregate retained ACV of our customer base at the end of the prior fiscal year, referred as the base ACV, to the aggregate retained ACV from the same group of customers at the end of the current fiscal year. We calculate our dollar-based expansion rate on an annual basis by dividing the retained ACV by the base ACV on a dollar-weighted basis across cohort. Retained ACV is defined as aggregate ACV of a customer base less churn, assuming any active contract expiring during the period is renewed and continues on its existing terms and at its prevailing rate of utilization.

Customer Retention. We define our Customer Retention rate by subtracting our attrition rate from 100%. We calculate our attrition rate for a period by dividing the number of customers lost during the period by the sum of the number of customers at the beginning of the period and the number of new customers acquired during the period.

Total Average Contract Term, represents the dollar-weighted term, calculated on a billings basis, across all subscription and life-of-device contracts, using an assumed term of five years for life-of-device licenses, executed in the quarter.
