First Quarter and Full-Year 2016 Guidance

Rapid7 anticipates total revenue, non-GAAP loss from operations, and non-GAAP net loss per share to be in the following ranges:

First Quarter 2016:

Total revenue $32.9 to $34.3 million
Loss from operations (non-GAAP)$(10.0) to $(9.0) million
Net loss per share (non-GAAP)$(0.26) to $(0.23)

The first quarter net loss per share calculation assumes 40.6 million basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.

Full-Year 2016:

Total revenue $146.0 to $151.0 million
Loss from operations (non-GAAP) $(40.0) to $(36.0) million
Net loss per share (non-GAAP) $(0.97) to $(0.88)

The full-year net loss per share calculation assumes 41.7 million basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Guidance for the first quarter and full-year 2016 does not include any potential impact of foreign exchange gains or losses.

Non-GAAP guidance excludes estimates for stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related expenses and certain non-recurring, one-time items. Rapid7 has provided a reconciliation of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable GAAP measures in the financial statement tables included in this press release. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the most comparable GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresRapid7 believes that the use of non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss is helpful to our investors. These measures, which we refer to as our non-GAAP financial measures, are not prepared in accordance with GAAP.

For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related expenses, and impairment of long-lived assets from our results in order to determine our non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss.

Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash expense, Rapid7 believes that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation expense allow for more meaningful comparisons between our operating results from period to period. Rapid7 also believes that excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets allows for more meaningful comparisons between operating results from period to period as the intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over a period of several years after the acquisition. Rapid7 also believes that excluding the impact of the costs directly related to acquisitions and asset impairments allow for a more meaningful comparison between operating results from period to period, as these costs are unrelated to the current operations and neither comparable to the prior period nor predictive of future results. Each of our non-GAAP financial measures is an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own operating results over different periods of time. The non-GAAP financial data are not measures of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to gross profit, loss from operations, net loss or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on our reported financial results. Further, stock-based compensation expense has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense in our business and an important part of the compensation provided to our employees. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Rapid7 urges investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
