REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — September 4, 2024 — C3.ai, Inc. (“C3 AI,” “C3,” or the “Company”) (NYSE: AI), the Enterprise AI application software company, today announced financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended July 31, 2024.
“We had a solid start to the fiscal year, with rising demand for Enterprise AI driving our sixth consecutive quarter of accelerating revenue growth,” said Thomas M. Siebel, Chairman and CEO, C3 AI. “C3 AI is the original Enterprise AI company. Our unwavering commitment to solving the most challenging problems in the enterprise has led us to what we believe are the highest levels of customer satisfaction in the industry.”

•Gross Profit: GAAP gross profit for the quarter was $52.2 million, representing a 60% gross margin. Non-GAAP gross profit for the quarter was $60.9 million, representing a 70% non-GAAP gross margin.
•Net Loss per Share: GAAP net loss per share was $(0.50). Non-GAAP net loss per share was $(0.05).
•Cash Reserves: $762.5 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities.
•Free Cash Flow: Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.0 million. Positive free cash flow of $7.1 million.
Business Highlights
C3 AI made significant progress in broadening our market presence with particularly strong momentum in Manufacturing and State and Local Government.
•In Q1, the Company closed 71 agreements (an increase of 122% year-over-year) including 52 pilots (an increase of 117% year-over-year).
•The Company significantly expanded its footprint across State and Local Government, closing 25 agreements with municipal, county, and state agencies in Texas, California, New Jersey, Georgia, Washington, Connecticut, Virginia, Rhode Island, Maine, New Mexico, and Florida.
•The Company entered into new agreements with GSK, Eletrobras, Valero, Swift, SmithRx, Sanofi, the U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Department of Defense, Dolce & Gabbana, and Ingersoll Rand, among others.
•C3 AI’s Federal business continues to experience sustained momentum, representing over 30% of bookings for Q1. The Company entered into new and expansion agreements with the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Intelligence Community, among others.
Customer Success
C3 AI’s customer base continues to expand both within and across industries while maintaining exceptional levels of customer satisfaction by focusing on delivering measurable enterprise value.
•Eletrobras, Latin America’s largest power generation and transmission company, has partnered with C3 AI to enhance grid resilience and availability. Brazil’s grid is among the world’s most complex, owing to its generation profile, variability, extensive service territory, and challenging regulatory environment. With C3 AI, Eletrobras can efficiently process and analyze real-time data, surfacing low latency AI insights to mitigate network disturbances.
•The U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) and C3 AI continued the successful collaboration digitally transforming the branch’s legacy software systems. The USMC is using the C3 AI Defense & Intelligence Suite to improve efficiency of personnel and management systems by accelerating critical processes and time-to-decision support. Backed by the Manpower IT Systems Modernization program, this work with C3 AI supports the USMC’s multi-year roadmap and goals, which includes becoming a more agile and technologically advanced force.
•Nucor Corporation is seeing significant success in improving manufacturing outcomes with the C3 AI Supply Chain Suite. This deployment includes three distinct C3 AI applications — C3 AI Demand Forecasting, C3 AI Inventory Optimization, and C3 AI Production Schedule Optimization — working together to support and optimize daily decision making across multiple facilities.
•U.S. counties are increasingly seeing significant benefits including enhanced efficiency and operational effectiveness with the C3 AI Property Appraisal application.
“We set the bar high for C3 AI and they delivered with over 90% model accuracy in our property valuations. This technology is letting our staff do the mundane tasks faster and easier so they can concentrate on the very complicated properties. And our employees are starting to see the fruits of this effort, translating into better customer service. Overall, we are seeing incredible results with C3 AI,” Riverside County, CA, Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder.
Partner Network
Strong alliances powered pilot growth, markedly increasing activity in State and Local Government in particular.
•In Q1, the Company closed 51 agreements representing 72% of total agreements through its partner network, an increase of 155% year-over-year.
•Partner supported bookings grew by 94% year-over-year.
•Google Cloud and C3 AI jointly closed 40 agreements, an increase of 300% year-over-year. This was driven by a joint campaign promoting the C3 AI State & Local Government Suite of applications, including C3 AI Property Appraisal and C3 Generative AI for Government Benefits. Through these efforts, the Company saw high adoption with State and Local Government, closing 24 agreements in the quarter.
C3 Generative AI
C3 Generative AI continues to have strong customer demand with diverse use cases, including operator assistance, intelligence analysis, complex documentation drafting, and customer service.
•In Q1, the Company closed 17 C3 Generative AI pilots with Cargill, Eletrobras, Valero, Dolce & Gabbana, Tractor Supply, and others including various government agencies in Texas, Georgia, and New Jersey.
•The Company converted C3 Generative AI pilots to production including Carpenter and the U.S. Marine Corps, among others.
•In Q1, the Company closed a pilot of the newly launched C3 Generative AI for Government Programs with a state in the Northeastern U.S. This generative AI application streamlines access to and comprehension of public benefits and government programs — such as healthcare, employment, financial assistance, and education. The application can be used within contact centers to accelerate response time and improve first call resolution rate. It can also be deployed customer facing to deliver fast, accurate, and secure answers to constituent questions, complete with source citations, in 133 languages, and without hallucinations.
•C3 Generative AI is being applied to a wide range of use cases including:
Manufacturing:
◦Operator assistance for enhancing yield and improving production efficiency.
◦Expediting troubleshooting of machines.
◦Streamlining asset inspections and turnarounds.
◦Management of assets/factory equipment, scheduling repairs and replacements.

Agriculture:

Financial Outlook:
The Company’s guidance includes GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures.
The following table summarizes C3 AI’s guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and full-year fiscal 2025:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
(in millions) | Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Guidance | | Full Year Fiscal 2025 Guidance |
Total revenue | $88.6 - $93.6 | | $370.0 - $395.0 |
Non-GAAP loss from operations | $(26.7) - $(34.7) | | $(95.0) - $(125.0) |
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, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP results included in this press release. Our fiscal year ends April 30, and numbers are rounded for presentation purposes.

Investor Presentation Details
An investor presentation providing additional information and analysis can be found at our investor relations page at ir.c3.ai.
Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports the following non-GAAP financial measures, which have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
•Non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share. Our non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense-related charges and employer payroll tax expense related to employee stock-based compensation. We believe the presentation of operating results that exclude these non-cash items provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of our operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods.
•Free cash flow. We believe free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, is useful in evaluating liquidity and provides information to management and investors about our ability to fund future operating needs and strategic initiatives. We calculate free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs. This non-GAAP financial measure may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies. Additionally, the utility of free cash flow is further limited as it does not represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balances for a given period.
We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. We encourage investors to carefully consider our results under GAAP, as well as our supplemental non-GAAP information and the reconciliation between these presentations, to more fully understand our business. Please see the tables included at the end of this release for the reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
Use of Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our market leadership position, anticipated benefits from our partnerships, financial outlook, our sales and customer opportunity pipeline including our industry diversification, the expected benefits of our offerings (including the potential benefits of our C3 Generative AI offerings), and our business strategies, plans, and objectives for future operations. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including our history of losses and ability to achieve and maintain profitability in the future, our historic dependence on a limited number of existing customers that account for a substantial portion of our revenue, our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers, market awareness and acceptance of enterprise AI solutions in general and our products in particular, the length and unpredictability of our sales cycles and the time and expense required for our sales efforts. Some of these risks are described in greater detail in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024, and other filings and reports we make the Securities and Exchange Commissions from time to time, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that will be filed for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2024, although new and unanticipated risks may arise. The future events and trends discussed in this press release may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements, or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will occur. Except to the extent required by law, we do not undertake to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this press release to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations.
