Shutterstock Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Achieves Record Revenues and Adjusted EBITDA and Increases Guidance for 2024
Announces Departure of CFO and Appointment of Incoming CFO
New York, NY - October 29, 2024 - Shutterstock, Inc. (NYSE: SSTK) (the “Company”), a leading global
creative platform offering high-quality creative content for transformative brands, digital media and marketing companies, today announced financial results for the third quarter
ended September 30, 2024.
Commenting on the Company’s performance, Paul Hennessy, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Shutterstock generated record Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA during the
third quarter, exceeding our expectations. With the Envato acquisition now closed, we could not be more pleased with the results we are seeing. With the unlimited multi-asset subscription now part of our overall product suite, we are now well
positioned to fulfill our customer needs. Content performance improved yet again in the quarter, and Data, Distribution, and Services has grown 40% year to date. As a result of this business momentum, we are pleased to be able to raise our guidance
for both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for 2024.”
“Additionally, after five years at Shutterstock, Jarrod Yahes, our Chief Financial Officer, will be departing to pursue another opportunity. I want to thank Jarrod for his
incredible contributions to Shutterstock and wish him the very best in the future. I’d also like to announce that Rik Powell will become our Chief Financial Officer. Rik started with the Company in June as SVP, Finance and Investor Relations and
given Rik’s extensive experience, I am confident that his leadership and expertise will play a vital role in continuing to drive profitable growth for our shareholders.”

Acquisition of Envato Pty Ltd.
On July 22, 2024, the Company completed its acquisition of Envato Pty Ltd. (“Envato”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement entered into May 1, 2024, and the Company
purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Envato. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company, after customary working capital and other adjustments, was $250 million.
THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Revenue
Third quarter revenue of $250.6 million increased $17.3 million or 7% as compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Revenue from our Content product offering increased $24.9 million, or 14%, as compared to the third quarter of 2023, to $203.7 million. The growth in our Content revenues
was driven by revenue generated from Envato. Content revenue represented 81% of our total revenue in the third quarter of 2024. Revenue generated from our Data, Distribution, and Services product offering decreased $7.6 million, or 14%, as compared
to the third quarter of 2023, to $46.9 million, and represented 19% of third quarter revenue in 2024.
Revenue was not impacted on a constant currency basis in the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.
Net income and net income per diluted common share
Net income in the third quarter of 2024 of $17.6 million decreased $10.8 million as compared to net income of $28.4 million for the third quarter in 2023. Net income per
diluted common share was $0.50, as compared to $0.79 for the same period in 2023. The 2023 net income and net income per diluted common share benefited from a one-time $9.9 million non-taxable bargain purchase gain associated with the acquisition of
Giphy.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share
Adjusted net income in the third quarter of 2024 of $46.4 million increased $0.8 million as compared to adjusted net income of $45.5 million for the third quarter in 2023.
Third quarter 2024 adjusted net income was favorably impacted by the quarter’s revenue growth, partially offset by the costs associated with the acquisition of Envato.
Adjusted net income per diluted common share was $1.31 as compared to $1.26 for the third quarter of 2023, an increase of $0.05 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA of $70.0 million for the third quarter of 2024 increased by $5.3 million, or 8%, as compared to the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to the
contribution from Envato. Net income margin of 7.0% for the third quarter of 2024 decreased by 5.2%, as compared to 12.2% in the third quarter of 2023. The adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.9% for the third quarter of 2024 increased by 0.2%, as compared
to 27.7% in the third quarter of 2023.
THIRD QUARTER LIQUIDITY
Our cash and cash equivalents increased by $56.5 million to $131.4 million at September 30, 2024, as compared with $74.9 million as of June 30, 2024. This increase was
driven by $213.3 million of net cash provided by financing activities, partially offset by $11.6 million of net cash used in our operating activities and $147.9 million of net cash used in investing activities.
Net cash used in our operating activities was driven by our operating income, and changes in the timing of cash collections from our customers and payments pertaining to
operating expenses. Operating cash flows were also unfavorably impacted by payments made for Envato Seller Obligations1 and payments made for the Giphy Retention Compensation2.
Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 consisted of $159.6 million for the acquisition of Envato, net of cash acquired, and
$15.4 million related to capital expenditures and content acquisition, partially offset by $26.9 million related to the receipt of the Giphy Retention Compensation, as reimbursed by the Giphy seller.
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2024 consisted of $280.0 million in new debt, used for funding the acquisition of Envato,
and to pay off the existing Credit Facility. This was partially offset by $30.0 million used for the repayment of our Credit Facility, $21.0 million paid for the repurchase of common stock under our share repurchase program, $10.6 million related to
the payment of the quarterly cash dividend, $2.9 million paid in settlement of tax withholding obligations related to employee stock-based compensation awards, and $2.2 million paid for debt issuance costs.
Adjusted free cash flow was $45.7 million for the third quarter of 2024, an increase of $33.0 million from the third quarter of 2023.
QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.30 per common share or $10.6 million.
On October 21, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.30 per share of outstanding common stock, payable on December 13, 2024 to stockholders of record at
the close of business on November 29, 2024.
1 In connection with the purchase of Envato, Envato’s acquired cash included $63.4 million to fund payments to be
made on behalf of the Envato sellers after the closing of the acquisition (the “Envato Seller Obligations”). These obligations were triggered upon the closing of the acquisition, and $45.7 million of these obligations were paid as of September 30,
2024. The acquired cash from Envato is reflected as a reduction of the purchase price in cash flows from investing activities.
2 The payments for Giphy Retention Compensation relate to the Company’s payments made to Giphy employees for (i)
recurring salary, bonuses, and benefits, (ii) one-time employment inducement bonuses and (iii) vesting of the cash value of unvested Meta equity awards held by the employees prior to closing, which are reflected in the Company’s operating expenses.
These payments were required in accordance with the terms of the acquisition and are reported in operating cash flows. The Company received reimbursement for these amounts from Meta, which are reported in cash flows from investing activities.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
To supplement Shutterstock’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP,
Shutterstock’s management considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, collectively referred to as non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted
net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and adjusted free cash flow.
Shutterstock defines adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation, bargain purchase gain related to the
acquisition of Giphy, Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations, unrealized losses / gains on investments, interest income
and expense and income taxes; adjusted EBITDA margin as the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to revenue; adjusted net income as net income adjusted for the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets,
bargain purchase gain related to the acquisition of Giphy, Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations (reported in Other), unrealized losses / gains on investments and the
estimated tax impact of such adjustments; adjusted net income per diluted common share as adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted shares; revenue growth (including by product offering) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a
percentage) as the increase in current period revenues over prior period revenues, utilizing fixed exchange rates for translating foreign currency revenues for all periods in the comparison; billings as revenue adjusted for the change in deferred
revenue, excluding deferred revenue acquired through business combinations; and adjusted free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, adjusted for capital expenditures, content acquisition and cash received related to Giphy Retention
Compensation in connection with the acquisition of Giphy and cash paid for Envato Seller Obligations.
The expense associated with the Giphy Retention Compensation related to (i) the one-time employment inducement bonuses and (ii) the vesting of the cash value of unvested
Meta equity awards held by the employees prior to closing, which are reflected in operating expenses (together, the “Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring”), are required payments in accordance with the terms of the acquisition. Meta’s
sale of Giphy was directed by the United Kingdom Competition and Markets Authority (the “CMA”) and accordingly, the terms of the acquisition were subject to CMA preapproval. Management considers the operating expense associated with these required
payments to be unusual and non-recurring in nature. The Giphy Retention Compensation Expense - non-recurring is not considered an ongoing expense necessary to operate the Company’s business. Therefore, such expenses have been included in the below
adjustments for calculating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company also incurred $4.5 million of Giphy Retention
Compensation expense related to recurring employee costs, which is included in operating expenses, and are not included in the below adjustments for calculating adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per
diluted common share.
These figures have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered only in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be
considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Shutterstock cautions investors that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled
measures presented by other companies.
Shutterstock’s management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted common share, revenue growth
(including by product offering) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and adjusted free cash flow are useful to investors because these measures enable investors to analyze Shutterstock’s operating results on the same
basis as that used by management. Additionally, management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted common share provide useful information to investors about the performance of
the Company’s overall business because such measures eliminate the effects of unusual or other infrequent charges that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock’s underlying operating performance; and revenue growth (including by product
offering) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage) provides useful information to investors by eliminating the effect of foreign currency fluctuations that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock’s operating performance.
Management also believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the comparability for investors in assessing Shutterstock’s financial reporting. Shutterstock’s management believes that adjusted free cash flow is useful for
investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in internal-use software and website development costs to support the Company’s ongoing business
operations and provides them with the same measures that management uses as the basis for making resource allocation decisions.
Shutterstock’s management also uses the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted common
share, revenue growth (including by product offering) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and adjusted free cash flow, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing the business and to,
among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of Shutterstock’s business operations, financial performance and overall liquidity; (ii) facilitate management’s internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of its business
operations; (iii) facilitate management’s external comparisons of the results of its overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the
operating performance of Shutterstock’s management team and, together with other operational objectives, as a measure in evaluating employee compensation; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating
investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.
Reconciliations of the differences between each of our non-GAAP financial measures (adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per
diluted common share, revenue growth (including by product offering) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings, adjusted free cash flow), and each measure’s most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented
in accordance with GAAP, are presented under the headings “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP” and “Supplemental Financial Data” immediately following the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We do not provide a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance or a reconciliation of adjusted net income per diluted share guidance to net income
per diluted share guidance, because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the impact of potential future transactions, including, but not limited to, capital structure transactions, restructuring, acquisitions, divestitures or other
events and asset impairments. These amounts which lack predictability depend on various factors and could have a material impact on net income and net income per diluted share, but may be excluded from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per
diluted share. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP
(In thousands, except per share information)
(unaudited)
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant
currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and adjusted free cash flow are not financial measures prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be
construed as alternatives to any other measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Investors are cautioned that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily
comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.

Statutory tax rates are used to calculate the tax effect of the adjustments.
|
|
(2) |
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the tax effect of non-cash equity-based compensation includes a $6.3 million add-back for the reduction of deferred tax assets associated with the
expiration of performance-based stock options and restricted stock units granted the Company’s Founder and Executive Chairman in 2014. The performance-based metrics were not met, the awards were not exercisable, and the Company recognized a
non-cash tax expense for the change in deferred taxes.
|
|
(3) |
Of these amounts, $7.8 million and $8.1 million are included in cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $24.1 million and $23.4 million are included
in cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The remainder of acquisition-related amortization expense is included in general and administrative expense in the Statement of Operations.
|
|
(4) |

Subscribers, Subscriber Revenue and Average Revenue Per Customer from acquisitions are included in these metrics beginning twelve months after the closing of the respective
business combination. Accordingly, the metrics include Subscribers, Subscriber revenue, and Average revenue per customer from Pond5 and Splash News beginning May 2023, and, for Average Revenue per Customer, from Giphy starting July 2024. These
metrics exclude the respective counts and revenues from Backgrid and Envato.
(1) Subscribers is defined as those customers who purchase one or more of our monthly recurring products for a continuous period of at least three months, measured as of
the end of the reporting period. Envato subscribers for the period ended September 30, 2024 were 0.6 million.
(2) Subscriber revenue is defined as the revenue generated from subscribers during the period. Envato’s subscriber revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was
$34.4 million.
(3) Average revenue per customer is calculated by dividing total revenue for the last twelve-month period by customers. Customers is defined as total active, paying
customers that contributed to total revenue over the last twelve-month period. Envato’s average revenue per customer for the last twelve-month period ended September 30, 2024 was $85 per customer.
(4) Paid downloads is the number of downloads that our customers make in a given period of our content. Paid downloads exclude content related to our Studios business,
downloads of content that are offered to customers for no charge, including our free trials and metadata delivered through our data deal offering. Envato had 79.4 million paid downloads during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
