Box Provides Long-Term Financial Model at FY23 Financial Analyst Day

Anticipates Combined Revenue Growth Rate Plus Free Cash Flow Margin will be 43-44% for FY25

Announces New Share Repurchase Authorization of up to $150 Million

Box, Inc. (NYSE:BOX), the leading Content Cloud provider, today hosted its virtual fiscal year 2023 Financial Analyst Day during which it provided its long-term financial model for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025, and announced a new share repurchase authorization of up to $150 million.

“The profitable growth we delivered in FY22 demonstrates the strength of our underlying business model. Going forward, we expect to continue improving both our revenue growth rate and free cash flow margin, and anticipate generating a combined outcome of 43-44% in FY25,” said Dylan Smith, co-founder and CFO of Box. “We have built the operational engine to deliver long-term profitable growth and, with our disciplined capital allocation strategy, we are well positioned to create significant shareholder value for years to come. The future of work is here, and we have never been more excited about the opportunity ahead.”

Long-Term Financial Model

Box provided financial targets for its fiscal year ending January 31, 2025:

  • Combined revenue growth plus free cash flow margin is expected to be 43%-44%.
  • Revenue growth is expected to be in the range of 15%-17% year-over-year.
  • Non-GAAP gross margin* is expected to be approximately 77%.
  • Non-GAAP operating margin* is expected to be in the range of 25%-28%.

New Share Repurchase Authorization

Box also announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program under which Box may repurchase up to $150 million of its outstanding Class A common stock over the next twelve months. The timing and total amount of share repurchases, if any, will depend upon market conditions and other factors, and may be made from time to time in open market purchases.

* A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial targets to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is not available on a forward-looking basis due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, the amounts of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and non-recurring expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense is impacted by Box’s future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of Box common stock, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. The actual amount of stock-based compensation expense in the year ending January 31, 2025 will have a significant impact on Box’s GAAP operating margin and net loss per share attributable to common stockholders. Further, amortization of intangible assets, as well as other non-recurring expenses, if any, will also impact results. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial targets to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures for future periods is not available without unreasonable effort.
