Life360, Inc.: Life360 Reports Record Q3 2024 Results

Monthly Active Users Reached Approximately 76.9 million for the Quarter
Record Global Net Additions to Paying Circles of 159 thousand - Reaching Nearly 2.2 million Total

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- San Francisco area-based Life360, Inc. (Life360 or the Company) (NASDAQ: LIF) (ASX: 360) today reported unaudited financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The Company built on momentum from the previous quarter and again achieved record quarterly results in Monthly Active Users ("MAUs"), Paying Circles, Subscription Revenue, and Annualized Monthly Revenue.

"Life360 made tremendous progress in Q3 2024, achieving our best-ever U.S. back-to-school period with record MAU and subscriber growth while simultaneously advancing our platform strategy," said Life360 Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Chris Hulls. "We reached a key milestone in building our advertising business, with our Uber partnership showcasing the power of contextual relevance over generic banners. Additionally, we launched a new lineup of Tile devices, garnering widespread press coverage with hundreds of articles, most of which highlighted our distinctive SOS feature. Our partnership with Hubble is officially signed, and international expansion-a critical pillar for future growth-accelerated significantly as we have started to reach tipping points in multiple countries.

"To quantify these results, our member base grew by 32% year-over-year, with 6.3 million new MAUs added this quarter, bringing our total to 76.9 million. Subscriber growth also hit a milestone, with a quarterly record net increase of 159 thousand Paying Circles-a notable acceleration from the 132 thousand net additions in Q2 and a record for quarterly net additions in the U.S. at 111 thousand net additions, a 64% increase year-over-year. International expansion also played a significant role, with a 51% year-over-year increase in international MAUs and a 37% increase in international Paying Circles, even amid price increases for legacy subscribers outside our core Triple Tier markets. Average Revenue Per Paying Circle in international markets grew by 53% over last year, driven by updating our legacy premium pricing strategy which enables faster experimentation with our new Dual Tier approach.

"We are excited to share the next phase of our hardware strategy, which will continue to contribute to our subscription growth. Our new Tile lineup-the first designed in-house by Life360-significantly differentiates us from our competitors with its SOS feature that turns all Tiles into safety devices, a capability currently unattainable by others at scale across the Google and Apple platforms. Early results are promising, with direct-to-consumer sales more than doubling in the six weeks following the launch compared to the same period last year. Notably, Tile is enhancing our subscription business as a low-cost customer acquisition device. We have been seeing a consistent rise in the percentage of U.S. premium subscribers with an active linked Tile in their account, and we expect this to continue with the new product.

"While these early results are exceeding expectations, the new Tile launch had logistical delays, including certification, labeling, and supply chain issues. This led to lower-than-expected device sales and reduced margins in Q3, as there were periods when our full lineup was unavailable due to planned inventory shifts to the new product line. Fortunately, these were temporary setbacks, and the issues have now been resolved. While it may take time for this transition to fully reflect in brick-and-mortar retail sales, we are optimistic about Black Friday, which we expect to set a new baseline for this enhanced lineup.

"With the new Tile rollout complete, our team is now focused on developing our GPS lineup, built on Jiobit technology. This will begin with a pet device potentially in late 2025, followed by an elder care product anticipated in 2026. Since these devices require a subscription and target rapidly growing verticals, we are excited about the potential for this next generation of hardware to drive a new wave of subscription growth.

"Our advertising initiative continues to show significant potential, with our Uber partnership marking an important milestone. Through this collaboration, Life360 users landing at an airport receive an offer for a ride, showcasing the power of our unique user data and contextual relevance. Our Uber landing notifications significantly outperform industry-averages for engagement with banner ads. This initial version of our partnership points to a promising path for monetizing additional user signals, such as moving to a new home, visiting retail stores or quick-service restaurants, or experiencing major life events like starting college.

"Scaling this vision will require time as we build out our backend infrastructure and sales platform, but the early results strengthen our confidence that advertising could eventually rival our subscription business. With a strong pipeline of potential partners seeking to leverage our unparalleled first-party location platform, we see significant potential to expand our market presence versus competitors.

"Our data business, which had previously leveled off as we transitioned to aggregated data, returned to growth in Q3, bolstered by our exclusive partnership with Placer.ai. We're optimistic about our potential for accelerated growth in 2025 and beyond as this collaboration deepens. Additionally, we formalized our partnership with Hubble, subject to Hubble shareholder approval, paving the way for a new enterprise revenue stream and significantly enhancing the location capabilities of our hardware devices. These strategic partnerships highlight the potential for both expanding our data business and enhancing our technology offerings."

Life360 Chief Financial Officer Russell Burke noted, "We continued to progress along our path to profitability during the quarter." Burke continued, "While a one-time gain from investments and a tax benefit drove our first Net Income versus a Net Loss in the prior year period, we achieved our eighth consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA¹, and our sixth consecutive quarter of positive Operating Cash Flow. Recurring subscription and other revenue continue to drive top-line growth, and balancing that growth with expanding profitability was demonstrated in our Q3'24 results. Year-to-date our total revenue reached $256 million and grew 18% YoY, while our total operating expenses increased 10% YoY. We remain on track to reach our target of sustained positive EBITDA¹ in 2025."

For more information, including the use of this measure, refer to the "Core subscription revenue" section below.
3	The provision for (benefit from) income taxes for interim quarterly reporting periods is based on the Company's estimates of the effective tax rates for the full fiscal year in accordance with ASC 740-270, Income Taxes, Interim Reporting. ASC 740-270-25-2 requires that an annual effective tax rate be determined and such annual effective rate be applied to year to date income (loss) in interim periods. The effective tax rate in any quarter may be subject to fluctuations during the year as new information is obtained, which may positively or negatively affect the assumptions used to estimate the annual effective tax rate, including factors such as valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, the recognition or de-recognition of tax benefits related to uncertain tax position, if any, and changes in or the interpretation of tax laws in jurisdictions where the Company conducts business.

• Global MAU increased 32% YoY to approximately 76.9 million, with Q3'24 net additions of 6.3 million. U.S. MAU increased 19% YoY, with Q3'24 net adds of 1.8 million. International MAU increased 51% YoY, with Q3'24 net adds of 4.5 million. ANZ MAU increased 36% YoY to 2.5 million.
• Q3'24 global Paying Circle net additions of 159 thousand were a new quarterly record, driven by strong performance in the U.S. market. U.S. Paying Circles increased 21% YoY on the back of both higher registrations and improved conversion and retention metrics. International Paying Circles maintained strong momentum, up 37% YoY. Total Paying Circles in the triple-tier markets of the UK, Canada, and ANZ increased 20% YoY.
• Q3'24 global ARPPC increased 6% YoY. The uplift to global ARPPC due to price increases occurred despite a 9% increase in the weighting of international Paying Circles as a percentage of global Paying Circles, reflecting faster growth in international regions that have lower pricing relative to the U.S. Q3'24 U.S. ARPPC increased 4% YoY, benefiting from a shift in product mix towards higher priced products. Q3'24 international ARPPC increased 53% YoY due to Triple Tier membership launches and legacy subscriber price increases in the UK and ANZ, and price increases for legacy subscribers in non-Triple Tier markets ahead of the launch of Dual Tier pricing in late September.
• Q3'24 net hardware units shipped decreased 24% YoY due to a delay in our new product launch. The Average Selling Price of hardware units shipped decreased 4% YoY primarily due to increased discounts implemented to clear out existing inventory prior to the new product launch.
• September 2024 AMR increased 30% YoY, benefiting from accelerating subscription revenue momentum over the course of Q3'24.

• Q3'24 total subscription revenue increased 27% YoY to $71.8 million, primarily driven by growth in Paying Circles.
• Q3'24 hardware revenue decreased 24% YoY to $11.7 million, primarily driven by the delay in our new product launch, which resulted in lower sales volume and was accompanied by increased discounts implemented to clear out existing inventory.
• Q3'24 other revenue of $9.3 million was $2.8 million higher YoY due to increases in data and partnership revenue, which includes advertising revenue.

Core Subscription Revenue

• Core subscription revenue is defined as GAAP subscription revenue derived from the Life360 mobile application and excludes non-core subscription revenue, which we define as GAAP subscription revenue from other hardware related subscription offerings, for the reported period.

• Q3'24 operating expenses, excluding commissions, increased 14% YoY despite revenue growth of 18%, demonstrating continued strong operating leverage.
• Research and development costs increased 18% YoY, primarily driven by higher personnel-related costs, technology, and outside services spend, all due to Company growth.
• Sales and marketing costs increased 19% YoY, primarily due to an increase in commissions in line with the 20% increase in subscriptions and the prioritization of other marketing spend in connection with the successful back-to-school campaigns in the U.S. and U.K. and the launch of the new Tile hardware product line. The decrease in paid acquisition & TV spend YoY is due to planned shifts in the allocation of spend to other marketing. Overall, sales and marketing costs increased $6.4 million compared to Q2'24, in line with guidance, and $5.0 million YoY.
• General and administrative expenses increased 8% YoY, primarily driven by Company growth.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash at the End of the Period	$	160.2			$	63.7			$	160.2			$	63.7

• Life360 ended Q3'24 with cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $160.2 million, a decrease of $1.8 million from Q2'24.
• Q3'24 operating cash flow was $6.3 million. This was offset by $7.2 million used in financing activities primarily related to taxes paid for the net settlement of equity awards and $1.0 million used in investing activities related to payments for internally developed software.
• Q3'24 net cash provided by operating activities of $6.3 million was lower than Adjusted EBITDA of $9.0 million primarily due to the seasonal buildup of inventory ahead of the Q4'24 holiday season and the timing of receipts and payables. See EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA section below for definition and reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP financial measures, as described below, to facilitate analysis of our financial and business trends and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. For more information, see the "Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information" section below.

Non-GAAP financial measures include earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) convertible notes, derivative liability, and investment fair value adjustments, (ii) gain and loss on settlement of convertible notes and derivative liability, (iii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization and (v) other income, net. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) convertible notes, derivative liability, and investment fair value adjustments, (ii) gain and loss on settlement of convertible notes and derivative liability, (iii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) other income, net, (vi) stock-based compensation, (vii) IPO-related transaction costs, including secondary offering costs (viii) workplace restructuring costs, (ix) the write-off of obsolete inventory, (x) the adjustment in connection with membership benefit, and (xi) warehouse relocation costs. These items are excluded from EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because they are non-cash in nature, because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, or because they are not driven by core results of operations and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

• Q3'24 delivered a positive Adjusted EBITDA contribution of $9.0 million versus $5.5 million in Q3'23 as a result of continued strong subscription revenue growth and improved operating leverage.
  

Earnings Guidance²³

Life360 has updated its 2024 earnings guidance and expects to deliver the following metrics:

• Consolidated revenue of $368 million - $374 million revised from $370 million to $378 million to reflect lower hardware revenue, with Core subscription revenue²⁴ growth maintained at 25%+ YoY;
• Positive Adjusted EBITDA²⁴ of $39 million - $42 million, upgraded from $36 million - $41 million;
• EBITDA²⁵ loss of $(7) million to $(10) million, upgraded from $(8) million to $(13) million; including the $5.8 million in IPO-related transaction costs;
• Positive Operating Cash Flow for each quarter of 2024; and
• Year-end cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $150 million - $160 million. The forecast includes expected significantly higher outflows from RSU settlements, the investment in Hubble, IPO proceeds and related transaction costs, and timing variations in working capital in Q4'24 related to hardware inventory and the new product launch.

The company expects to continue to be Adjusted EBITDA positive on a quarterly basis going forward, to achieve positive EBITDA in Q4 due to usual seasonality, and to be EBITDA positive on a quarterly basis in 2025.

23	With respect to forward looking non-GAAP guidance, we are not able to reconcile the forward-looking non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA measure to the closest corresponding GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts because we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of certain significant items, which are fluid and unpredictable in nature. In addition, the Company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that may be confusing or misleading to investors. These items include, but are not limited to, litigation costs, convertible notes and derivative liability fair value adjustments, and gains/losses on revaluation of contingent consideration. These items may be material to our results calculated in accordance with GAAP.
24	Core subscription revenue is defined as subscription revenue derived from the Life360 mobile application and excludes non-core subscription revenue which relates to other hardware related subscription offerings. For more information, including the use of this measure, refer to the Core Subscription Revenue section above.
25	Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. For more information, including the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, the use of these non-GAAP measures, as well as reconciliations of Net Income (Loss) to each of Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, refer to the "EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA" section above and the "Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information" section below.

These forward-looking statements regarding Life360's intentions, objectives, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events, including Life360's expectations with respect to the financial and operating performance of its business, including subscription revenue, hardware revenue, other revenue and consolidated revenue and ability to create new revenue streams; the timing of the launch of advertising globally and that it is well positioned to scale ad revenue substantially in the coming years; its ability to deliver contextually relevant advertisements that enhance the user experience by leveraging its extensive first-party location data; its expectation of opportunities and significant increase in advertising revenue driven by its partnerships with Uber; Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, and operating cash flow; expectations regarding MAUs and other member metrics; its capital position; future growth and market opportunities; plans to launch new features and products; the impact of past price increases and expansion of product offerings in the UK, Australia and New Zealand on future results of operations and its confidence that advertising could eventually rival its subscription business; its expectations of growth in its data business; its expectation of a new enterprise revenue stream and enhanced location capabilities of its hardware devices as a result of its partnership with Hubble; its focus on developing a GPS lineup, built on Jiobit technology, the timing of new devices, and the potential for the next generation of hardware to drive a new wave of subscription growth; as well as Life360's expectations of any changes to the information disclosed herein. The words "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "project", "predict", "will", "forecast", "estimate", "likely", "intend", "outlook", "should", "could", "may", "target", "plan" and other similar expressions can generally be used to identify forward-looking statements. Indications of, and guidance or outlook on, future earnings or financial position or performance are also forward-looking statements. Investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as they involve inherent risk and uncertainty (both general and specific) and should note that they are provided as a general guide only and should not be relied on as an indication or guarantee of future performance. There is a risk that such predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. Subject to any continuing obligations under applicable law, Life360 does not undertake any obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this announcement, to reflect any change in expectations in relation to any forward-looking statements or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based.

Although Life360 believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements and the assumptions upon which they are based are reasonable, Life360 can give no assurance that such expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct and, actual results may vary in a materially positive or negative manner. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainty, assumptions and contingencies, many of which are outside Life360's control, and are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to change and may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include risks related to the preliminary nature of financial results, risks related to Life360's business, market risks, Life360's need for additional capital, and the risk that Life360's products and services may not perform as expected, as described in greater detail under the heading "Risk Factors" in Life360's ASX and SEC filings, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 29, 2024, as amended by Life360's subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other reports filed with the SEC. To the maximum extent permitted by law, responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise is disclaimed. This announcement should not be relied upon as a recommendation or forecast by Life360. Past performance information given in this document is given for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily a guide to future performance and no representation or warranty is made by any person as to the likelihood of achievement or reasonableness of any forward-looking statements, forecast financial information, future share price performance or any underlying assumptions. Nothing contained in this document nor any information made available to you is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise, representation, warranty or guarantee as to the past, present or the future performance of Life360.

Supplementary and Non-GAAP Financial Information

We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP, however, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and the other measures presented in the tables below provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, we have included non-GAAP financial measures in this media release because they are key measurements used by our management team internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.

Our non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be used as substitutes for analysis of, or superior to, our operating results as reported under GAAP. Additionally, we do not consider our non-GAAP financial measures as superior to, or a substitute for, the equivalent measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. As such, you should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to other financial performance measures presented in accordance with GAAP, including various cash flow metrics, net loss and our other GAAP results.

Non-GAAP cost of revenue is presented to understand margin economically and non-GAAP operating expenses are presented to understand operating efficiency. Non-GAAP cost of revenue and Non-GAAP operating expenses present direct and indirect expenses adjusted for non-cash expenses, such as stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, and non-recurring expenses, such as workplace restructuring costs, U.S. IPO-related transaction costs, including secondary offering costs, and the adjustment in connection with membership benefit. A reconciliation of GAAP financial information to Non-GAAP financial information for cost of revenue and operating expenses has been provided as supplementary information below.
