Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On December 5, 2023, MongoDB, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the three months ended October 31, 2023. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8‑K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information furnished under this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or subject to the liabilities of that section. The information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any other filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission made by the Company, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On December 1, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company increased the size of the Board from nine to ten directors and, following the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, appointed Ann Lewnes to serve as a member of the Board and as a member of the Board’s Compensation Committee, effective December 5, 2023. Ms. Lewnes's term will expire at the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board has determined that Ms. Lewnes is “independent” as contemplated by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and other governing laws and applicable regulations.
Ms. Lewnes, age 62, has significant leadership experience in branding, advertising, direct-to-consumer e-commerce, digital marketing, and corporate strategy. She also brings leadership experience in driving strategic growth and global demand at various public companies, and also has experience serving on the boards of nonprofit entities. Ms. Lewnes has served on the Board of Directors of Mattel, Inc., a public toy and entertainment company, since February 2015, and is chairperson of Mattel's Governance and Social Responsibility Committee and a member of its Executive Committee. From November 2006 to March 2023, Ms. Lewnes served as Adobe Inc.'s Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President of Corporate Strategy and Development. Previously, Ms. Lewnes was at Intel Corporation where she served as their Vice President of Marketing. Ms. Lewnes received her B.A. in International Relations and Journalism from Lehigh University.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Lewnes and any other person pursuant to which she was selected as a director, and there is no family relationship between Ms. Lewnes and any of the Company’s other directors or executive officers. There are no transactions between Ms. Lewnes and the Company that would be required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
As a non-employee director of the Company, Ms. Lewnes will be eligible to participate in the Company’s non-employee director compensation program (the "Director Compensation Program"). Under the terms of the Director Compensation Program, which are described in more detail in the Company’s annual proxy statement filed with the SEC on May 17, 2023, Ms. Lewnes will receive an annual cash retainer of $30,000 for her service as a member of the Board and an additional annual cash retainer of $7,500 for her service as a member of the Board’s Compensation Committee. In connection with her appointment, and consistent with the Director Compensation Program, on December 5, 2023, Ms. Lewnes received an initial equity award with a grant date value of $410,000 consisting of restricted stock units ("RSUs"), with the number of shares of common stock underlying such RSUs determined based on the volume-weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq for the 30 trading days immediately prior to the grant date. The award will vest annually over three years, subject to Ms. Lewnes’s continued service through each vesting date.
In connection with this appointment, the Company and Ms. Lewnes entered into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.5 to Form S-1 filed with the SEC on September 21, 2017. This agreement requires the Company to indemnify Ms. Lewnes, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, for certain liabilities to which she may become subject as a result of her affiliation with the Company.

DocumentMongoDB, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results
Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Total Revenue of $432.9 million, up 30% Year-over-Year
Continued Strong Customer Growth with Over 46,400 Customers as of October 31, 2023
MongoDB Atlas Revenue up 36% Year-over-Year; 66% of Total Q3 Revenue
NEW YORK - December 5, 2023 - MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDB) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended October 31, 2023.
“MongoDB continued to perform at a high level in the third quarter, as evidenced by 30% revenue growth and better-than-expected profitability. We are pleased by our success in winning new workloads from both new and existing customers across verticals, geographies, and customer segments,” said Dev Ittycheria, President and Chief Executive Officer of MongoDB.
“MongoDB has clearly established itself as an indispensable part of the tech stack of any organization focused on building durable competitive differentiation through software development. The recent general availability release of MongoDB Vector Search is the latest example of the strength of our innovation flywheel and reinforces our competitive advantage in winning AI workloads.”
Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Highlights
•Revenue: Total revenue was $432.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, an increase of 30% year-over-year. Subscription revenue was $418.3 million, an increase of 30% year-over-year, and services revenue was $14.6 million, an increase of 13% year-over-year.
•Gross Profit: Gross profit was $325.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, representing a 75% gross margin compared to 72% in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP gross profit was $335.3 million, representing a 77% non-GAAP gross margin, compared to a non-GAAP gross margin of 74% in the year-ago period.
•Loss from Operations: Loss from operations was $45.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, compared to a loss from operations of $82.9 million in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP income from operations was $78.5 million, compared to a non-GAAP income from operations of $19.8 million in the year-ago period.
•Net Loss: Net loss was $29.3 million, or $0.41 per share, based on 71.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. This compares to a net loss of $84.8 million, or $1.23 per share, in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP net income was $79.1 million, or $0.96 per share, based on 82.7 million diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. This compares to a non-GAAP net income of $18.7 million, or $0.23 per share, in the year-ago period.
•Cash Flow: As of October 31, 2023, MongoDB had $1.9 billion in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash. During the three months ended October 31, 2023, MongoDB generated $38.4 million of cash from operations, used $2.1 million of cash in capital expenditures and used $1.4 million of cash in principal repayments of finance leases, leading to free cash flow of $35.0 million, compared to negative free cash flow of $8.4 million in the year-ago period.
A reconciliation of each Non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable GAAP measure has been provided in the financial statement tables included at the end of this press release. An explanation of these measures is also included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 and Recent Business Highlights
•MongoDB announced the general availability of MongoDB Atlas Vector Search, which dramatically simplifies building real-time generative AI applications, and MongoDB Atlas Search Nodes, which provide developers with dedicated infrastructure to scale generative AI and relevance-based search workloads with up to 60 percent faster query times.
•MongoDB introduced additional generative AI capabilities, including four new AI-powered capabilities built into MongoDB Relational Migrator, MongoDB Compass, MongoDB Atlas Charts, and MongoDB Documentation that accelerate developer productivity and application modernization. MongoDB expanded its collaboration with cloud hyperscalers, including a new integration between MongoDB Atlas and Amazon Bedrock, which makes it easier for customers to build applications using managed foundation models with their proprietary data. In addition, MongoDB is now integrated with coding assistant tools Amazon CodeWhisperer and Microsoft Copilot to help streamline AI-powered development.
•MongoDB launched new MongoDB Atlas for Industries vertical initiatives—Atlas for Automotive and Manufacturing, Atlas for Healthcare, Atlas for Insurance, Atlas for Telecommunications, and Atlas for Media—to help organizations quickly innovate with industry-specific accelerators and solutions
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Fiscal 2024 Guidance
Based on information available to management as of today, December 5, 2023, MongoDB is issuing the following financial guidance for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2024.
| | | | | | | | |
| Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2024 | Full Year Fiscal 2024 |
Revenue | $429.0 million to $433.0 million | $1.654 billion to $1.658 billion |
Non-GAAP Income from Operations | $35.0 million to $38.0 million | $236.3 million to $239.3 million |
Non-GAAP Net Income per Share | $0.44 to $0.46 | $2.89 to $2.91 |
Reconciliations of non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income per share guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to the charges excluded from these non-GAAP measures; in particular, the measures and effects of stock-based compensation expense specific to equity compensation awards that are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in MongoDB’s stock price. MongoDB expects the variability of the above charges to have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on its future GAAP financial results.
Conference Call Information
MongoDB will host a conference call today, December 5, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) to discuss its financial results and business outlook. A live webcast of the call will be available on the “Investor Relations” page of MongoDB’s website at https://investors.mongodb.com. To access the call by phone, please go to this link (registration link), and you will be provided with dial in details. To avoid delays, we encourage participants to dial into the conference call fifteen minutes ahead of the scheduled start time. A replay of the webcast will also be available for a limited time at http://investors.mongodb.com.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release includes certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements concerning MongoDB’s financial guidance for the fourth fiscal quarter and full
year fiscal 2024 and our ability to capitalize on our market opportunity and deliver strong growth for the foreseeable future. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements contained in this press release that are not historical facts and statements identified by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would” or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions or variations. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects, which are based on the information currently available to us and on assumptions we have made. Although we believe that our plans, intentions, expectations, strategies and prospects as reflected in or suggested by those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that the plans, intentions, expectations or strategies will be attained or achieved. Furthermore, actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements and are subject to a variety of assumptions, uncertainties, risks and factors that are beyond our control including, without limitation: the impact the COVID-19 pandemic may have on our business and on our customers and our potential customers; the effects of the ongoing military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas on our business and future operating results; economic downturns and/or the effects of rising interest rates, inflation and volatility in the global economy and financial markets on our business and future operating results; our potential failure to meet publicly announced guidance or other expectations about our business and future operating results; our limited operating history; our history of losses; failure of our platform to satisfy customer demands; the effects of increased competition; our investments in new products and our ability to introduce new features, services or enhancements; social, ethical and security issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies, such as artificial intelligence, in our offerings or partnerships; our ability to effectively expand our sales and marketing organization; our ability to continue to build and maintain credibility with the developer community; our ability to add new customers or increase sales to our existing customers; our ability to maintain, protect, enforce and enhance our intellectual property; the growth and expansion of the market for database products and our ability to penetrate that market; our ability to integrate acquired businesses and technologies successfully or achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions; our ability to maintain the security of our software and adequately address privacy concerns; our ability to manage our growth effectively and successfully recruit and retain additional highly-qualified personnel; and the price volatility of our common stock. These and other risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on September 1, 2023. Additional information will be made available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2023 and other filings and reports that we may file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by law, we undertake no duty or obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this release as a result of new information, future events, changes in expectations or otherwise.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share and free cash flow. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin exclude expenses associated with stock-based compensation. Non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share exclude:
•expenses associated with stock-based compensation including employer payroll taxes upon the vesting and exercising of stock-based awards and expenses related to stock appreciation rights previously issued to our employees in China;
•amortization of intangible assets for the acquired technology and acquired customer relationships associated with prior acquisitions; and
•in the case of non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, amortization of the debt issuance costs associated with our convertible senior notes and gains or losses on non-marketable securities;
•additionally, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share for the fiscal year 2024 periods are adjusted for an assumed provision for income taxes based on an estimated long-term non-GAAP tax
rate. The non-GAAP tax rate was calculated utilizing a three-year financial projection that excludes the direct impact of the GAAP to non-GAAP adjustments and considers other factors such as operating structure and existing tax positions in various jurisdictions. We intend to periodically reevaluate the projected long-term tax rate, as necessary, for significant events and our ongoing analysis of relevant tax law changes.
MongoDB uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating MongoDB’s ongoing operational performance. MongoDB believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other companies in MongoDB’s industry, many of which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Free cash flow represents net cash from/used in operating activities, less capital expenditures, principal repayments of finance lease liabilities and capitalized software development costs, if any. MongoDB uses free cash flow to understand and evaluate its liquidity and to generate future operating plans. The exclusion of capital expenditures, principal repayments of finance lease liabilities and amounts capitalized for software development facilitates comparisons of MongoDB’s liquidity on a period-to-period basis and excludes items that it does not consider to be indicative of its liquidity. MongoDB believes that free cash flow is a measure of liquidity that provides useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating the strength of its liquidity and future ability to generate cash that can be used for strategic opportunities or investing in its business in the same manner as MongoDB’s management and board of directors.
Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In particular, other companies may report non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, free cash flow or similarly titled measures but calculate them differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as presented below. This earnings press release and any future releases containing such non-GAAP reconciliations can also be found on the Investor Relations page of MongoDB’s website at https://investors.mongodb.com.

* Diluted non-GAAP net income per share is calculated based upon 82.7 million and 82.2 million of diluted weighted-average shares of outstanding common stock for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2023, respectively. Diluted non-GAAP net income per share is calculated based upon 80.4 million and 79.9 million of diluted weighted-average shares of outstanding common stock for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2022, respectively.
** Non-GAAP financial information for the fiscal 2024 periods is adjusted for an assumed provision for income taxes based on our long-term projected tax rate of 20%. Due to the expected sustained non-GAAP profitability, this adjustment is applied prospectively and comparative periods have not been adjusted. Due to the differences in the tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, our estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from our GAAP tax rate and from our actual tax liabilities.
