Normalized EBITDA of BRL 33.7 million in Q2 2024 and BRL 56.8 million in H1 2024

Strict cost control led G&A as % of revenues to 14.5% in H1 2024 from 18.5% in H1 2023

Promising early results of Zenvia Customer Cloud soft launch, with healthy levels of recurring revenue, churn and crossed adoption

SÃO PAULO, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zenvia Inc. (NASDAQ: ZENV), the leading cloud-based CX solution in Latin America empowering companies to craft personal, engaging and fluid experiences throughout the customer journey, today reported its operational and financial metrics for the second quarter of 2024.

Cassio Bobsin, Founder & CEO of ZENVIA, said: "During the quarter, we kept our focus on rolling out Zenvia Customer Cloud, and we are pleased to report that the launch has been met with enthusiasm from our clients. We also released in June our cutting-edge Generative AI Chatbot solution, which delivers value in just under six minutes and, within two months of its launch, has already resulted in 99 chatbots developed by companies across eight sectors in Latin America. We are excited about the opportunities these innovations present and remain committed to driving continued growth and strengthening our leadership position in the market. Our team's dedication and the positive response from our clients underscore our confidence in the transformative potential of these solutions and our ability to exceed expectations as we move forward."

Shay Chor, CFO & IRO of ZENVIA, said: "We achieved another quarter of solid revenue growth in Q2 2024, with margins remaining within our guidance range, despite the fact that the revenue increase was mainly driven by large enterprises in both segments, which typically have lower margins. A key highlight of the quarter is the significant reduction in G&A expenses, which was down more than 10% YoY in Q2, attesting our continued commitment to rigorous cost control, and positively impacting our EBITDA. Looking ahead, we are focused on maintaining this momentum, rolling out Zenvia Customer Cloud and unlocking profitable value from our operations to keep deleveraging the business."

Highlights Q2 2024

• Revenues totaled BRL 231.2 million, up 19.8% when compared to BRL 192.9 million in Q2 2023 as a result of both SaaS (+15.6% YoY) and CPaaS (+22.1%) expansion. CPaaS and SaaS saw growth mainly from large enterprise customers.
• Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of BRL 100.2 million was up 20.4% YoY while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin was mainly stable, up by 0.2 percentage points to the expected level of 43.3% YoY as highlighted in our guidance for 2024. This decrease is due to:

(i) Higher mix of CPaaS in the period, principally from large enterprises with lower margins; and
(ii) Lower SaaS margins, which also grew more in large enterprises with lower margins.

• Total number of active customers decreased to 11.8k, being 6.8k from SaaS and 5.5k from CPaaS. This decrease reflects a client-base cleanup, combining the rollout of Zenvia Customer Cloud - that unifies SaaS clients' contracts - with a drop in smaller CPaaS clients which used lower volumes of SMS and were less profitable.
• Normalized EBITDA was positive BRL 33.7 million in the quarter, up 126.1% from Q2 2023, benefiting from higher revenues and strict expense control.
• On June 19, we announced the launch of our Generative AI Chatbot, a game-changing solution to revolutionize chatbot development, making it as simple and intuitive as a personal interaction and accessible to businesses of all sizes looking to improve and automate customer service. Key highlights include easy customization and efficient integration with multiple communication channels, ensuring a superior solution for all customer needs. Within two months of its launch, 99 chatbots were already developed by companies across eight industry sectors in Latin America.
• The migration of the client base to Zenvia Customer Cloud has already started, with a full rollout expected by the H1 2025. To date, we could observe healthy levels of recurring revenue, churn, and cross-adoption.

Highlights H1 2024

• Revenues totaled BRL 443.8 million, up 19.3% when compared to BRL 372.0 million in H1 2023 as a result of both SaaS (+13.8% YTD) and CPaaS (+22.5%) expansion.
• Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of BRL 193.8 million was up 10.3% YTD while Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin was down 3.6 percentage points YoY to the expected level of 43.7%.
• Normalized EBITDA was positive BRL 56.8 million in the quarter, up 150.0% from H1 2023, which is in line with our expectations and in line to deliver the full year guidance of BRL 120 million to BRL 140 million.

(1) For a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of our SaaS business segment to Gross Profit of our SaaS business segment, see Selected Financial Data section below. (2) We calculate Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of our SaaS business segment as Non-GAAP Gross Profit of our SaaS business segment divided by revenue of our SaaS business segment. (3) We define an Active Customer as an account (based on a corporate taxpayer registration number) at the end of any period that was the source of any amount of revenue for us in the preceding three months. We classify a customer from which we generated no revenue in the preceding three months as an Inactive Customer.

In Q2 2024, our SaaS business Revenue went up 15.6% YoY to BRL 78.0 million, compared to BRL 67.5 million in Q2 2023, primarily from large enterprise customers, especially in the Consulting business that has a low base of comparison in Q2 2023. In H1 2024, our SaaS business revenue increased 13.8%.

As a result, Q2 2024 Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit was mainly stable, up 1.3% YoY to BRL 42.5 million from BRL 42.0 million. It is worth noting that the soft launch of Zenvia Customer Cloud began at the end of Q1 2024, and the team is focused on rolling out all functionalities by Q4 2024, when we expect to launch the full marketing campaign.

The revenue increase came mostly from large enterprises that carry lower margins, leading to lower Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin from SaaS. Despite being down by 7.7 percentage points YoY to 54.5%, this margin level is expected, given that the large enterprise business carries lower margins when compared to the pure software business of circa 50%. For the same reason, in H1 2024, our Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit was down 2.9%, which resulted in an expected decrease of 9.5 percentage points in our Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin.

CPaaS Business

CPaaS Key Operational & Financial Metrics (BRL MM and %)	Q2 2024	Q2 2023	YoY	H1 2024	H1 2023	YTD
Revenues	153.2	125.5	22.1 %	289.0	235.9	22.5 %
Non-GAAP Gross Profit(1)	57.7	41.2	39.8 %	108.0	87.3	23.7 %

Total Active Customers(3)	5,506	8,647	-36.3 %	5,506	8,647	-36.3 %
(1) For a reconciliation of the Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit of our CPaaS business segment to Gross Profit of our CPaaS business segment, see Selected Financial Data section below. (2) We calculate Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of our CPaaS business segment as Non-GAAP Gross Profit of our CPaaS business segment divided by revenue of our CPaaS business segment. (3) We define an active customer as an account (based on a corporate taxpayer registration number) at the end of any period that was the source of any amount of revenue for us in the preceding three months. We classify a customer from which we generated no revenue in the preceding three months as an inactive customer.

Our CPaaS business reported Net Revenues of BRL 153.2 million in Q2 2024, up 22.1% YoY, while Non-GAAP Gross Profit increased 39.8% YoY to BRL 57.7 million from BRL 41.2 million in Q2 2023. Non-GAAP Gross Margin reached 37.6%, compared to 32.9% in Q2 2023, mainly due to opportunities of unusually high margins with certain large enterprises.

In H1 2024, our CPaaS business reported Net Revenues of BRL 289.0 million, up 22.5% YTD, with our Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit increasing at a similar rate, leading to a Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin of 37.4%, up 0.4 p.p. YoY.

It is worth noting that the decrease in the active customer base was primarily due to the clean-up and removal of smaller CPaaS clients who were not generating revenue. This move reflects our focus on retaining customers that contribute with revenues and EBITDA generation as attested by the 22% increase in CPaaS top line and 40% increase in Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit during the quarter.

Consolidated Financial Results

Revenue
Consolidated revenues in Q2 2024 totaled BRL 231.2 million, up 19.8% YoY, reflecting the increases of 22.1% in CPaaS and 15.6% in SaaS. In H1 2024 consolidated revenues totaled BRL 443.8 million, up 19.3% YTD, reflecting the increases of 22.5% in CPaaS and 13.8% in SaaS. The soft launch of Zenvia Customer Cloud began at the end of Q1 2024, and the team is focused on rolling out all functionalities by Q4 2024, when we expect to launch the full marketing campaign.

Profitability
Our Consolidated Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit went up by 20.4% YoY in Q2 2024 to BRL 100.2 million, mainly reflecting the 39.8% increase in CPaaS Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit. Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Margin was stable YoY, up by 0.2 p.p. to 43.3% in Q2 2024 from 43.1% in Q2 2023. Higher than expected CPaaS margins were able to offset lower SaaS margins, as the latter also expanded more with large enterprise customers. In addition, we had a higher share of CPaaS in the revenue mix, of 66.3% in Q2 2024 compared to 65.0% in Q2 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA in Q2 2024 was positive BRL 33.7 million, compared to BRL 14.9 million in Q2 2023. The 125.5% increase is mainly due to higher revenues and stricter expense control. Normalized EBITDA amounted to BRL 56.8 million in H1 2024, which compares to BRL 22.7 million in the same period of 2023. Our LTM Normalized EBITDA has reached BRL 110.2 million in June 2024, which puts us on track to delivering on the 2024 guidance.
