Full Year Fiscal 2021 Total Revenue of $590.4 million, up 40% Year-over-Year
MongoDB Atlas Revenue 49% of Total Q4 Revenue, up 66% Year-over-Year
New York City, New York - March 9, 2021 - MongoDB, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDB), the leading, modern general purpose database platform, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 31, 2021.
“MongoDB’s fourth quarter performance was a strong finish to an incredibly successful year. Our performance in fiscal 2021 demonstrated the increasingly strategic role MongoDB’s modern application data platform plays in enabling customers to use software and data to derive a competitive advantage,” said Dev Ittycheria, President and Chief Executive Officer of MongoDB.

“As we look ahead to fiscal 2022, MongoDB is in an excellent position to benefit from the shift to the cloud and the need to build smarter and more powerful applications that transform a company’s business. We are confident in our ability to keep delivering strong growth at scale and will continue to invest in our platform to ensure we fully capitalize on our large market opportunity over the long-term.”

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2021 Financial Highlights
Revenue: Total revenue was $171.0 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2021, an increase of 38% year-over-year. Subscription revenue was $163.9 million, an increase of 39% year-over-year, and services revenue was $7.1 million, an increase of 24% year-over-year.
Gross Profit: Gross profit was $120.0 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2021, representing a 70% gross margin, compared to 72% in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP gross profit was $123.3 million, representing a 72% non-GAAP gross margin.
Loss from Operations: Loss from operations was $59.4 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2021, compared to $40.9 million in the year-ago period. Non-GAAP loss from operations was $16.0 million, compared to $12.0 million in the year-ago period.
Net Loss: Net loss was $75.8 million, or $1.25 per share, based on 60.5 million weighted-average shares outstanding in the fourth quarter fiscal 2021.

Net Loss: Net loss was $266.9 million, or $4.53 per share, based on 59.0 million weighted-average shares outstanding, for the full year fiscal 2021. This compares to $175.5 million, or $3.14 per share, based on 55.9 million weighted-average shares outstanding, in the prior year. Non-GAAP net loss was $58.1 million or $0.99 per share. This compares to $55.9 million or $1.00 per share in the prior year.
Cash Flow: During the year ended January 31, 2021, MongoDB used $42.7 million of cash in operations and $11.8 million in capital expenditures and $4.6 million in principal repayments of finance leases, leading to negative free cash flow of $59.1 million, compared to negative free cash flow of $35.0 million in the prior year.
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.”
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2021 and Recent Business Highlights
Announced the general availability of MongoDB Realm Sync, a fully managed service that synchronizes data between the Realm mobile database and MongoDB Atlas. This new solution addresses the unique technical challenges of mobile and offline-first development, saving developer’s time by reducing the amount of code they need to write and the complexity of their application architecture.
Launched a global partnership with Tencent Cloud, allowing customers to consume MongoDB-as-a-Service across Tencent's global cloud infrastructure and securely build, deploy and scale powerful applications. With this partnership, the two largest cloud providers in China now provide authorized MongoDB managed service offerings, demonstrating the popularity of MongoDB in one of the largest markets in the world.
Expanded the Google Cloud partnership with deeper technical integrations and joint-customer programs to make MongoDB Atlas easier to consume through the Google Cloud Marketplace. Since the inception of the partnership, we’ve seen a dramatic increase in new business as customers have selected MongoDB Atlas as a superior alternative to relational database solutions.
Business Outlook
Based on information as of today, March 9, 2021, MongoDB is issuing the following financial guidance for the first quarter and full year fiscal 2022.
First Quarter Fiscal 2022Full Year Fiscal 2022
Revenue
$167.0 million to $170.0 million
$745.0 million to $765.0 million
Non-GAAP Loss from Operations
($21.0) million to ($19.0) million
($84.0) million to ($74.0) million
Non-GAAP Net Loss per Share
($0.39) to ($0.36)
($1.55) to ($1.39)

The guidance provided above is forward-looking in nature. Actual results may differ materially. See the cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” below. Fluctuations in MongoDB’s operating results may be particularly pronounced in the current economic environment due to the uncertainty caused by, and the unprecedented nature of, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the severity, duration, and ultimate impact of which is difficult to predict at this time. The situation regarding COVID-19 remains uncertain and could change rapidly, and MongoDB will continue to evaluate its potential impact on its business.

2


Reconciliation of non-GAAP loss from operations and non-GAAP net loss per share guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is 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 our stock price. We expect the variability of the above charges to have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

MongoDB will host a conference call today, March 9, 2021, at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) to discuss its financial results and business outlook.

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 our financial guidance for the first fiscal quarter and full year fiscal 2022; the anticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and future operating results; and the potential benefits of our product platform. 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 that the precautions we have taken in our business relative to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic may have on our business; the financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, our potential customers, the global financial markets and 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 database 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; 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 October 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on
3


December 9, 2020. Additional information will be made available in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2021 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 loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share and free cash flow. Non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin exclude stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss and non-GAAP net loss per share exclude:
stock-based compensation expense;
amortization of intangible assets for the acquired technology and acquired customer relationships associated with the prior acquisitions of Realm, mLab and WiredTiger;
amortization of time-based founder payments associated with the mLab purchase that was deemed to be compensation expense for GAAP purposes;
acquisition costs associated with the purchase of Realm in fiscal 2020; and
in the case of non-GAAP net loss, non-cash interest expense related to our convertible senior notes, a non-recurring loss from the early extinguishment of debt related to the partial repurchase in fiscal 2020 of our 0.75% convertible senior notes due 2024 and a non-recurring income tax benefit associated with the acquisition of Realm intangible assets in fiscal 2020.
Free cash flow represents net cash 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 loss from operations, non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss 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 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.

(a) Direct Sales Customers are customers that were sold through our direct sales force and channel partners.
(b) Represents the number of customers with $100,000 or greater in annualized recurring revenue (“ARR”) and annualized monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”). ARR includes the revenue we expect to receive from our customers over the following 12 months based on contractual commitments and, in the case of Direct Sales Customers of MongoDB Atlas, by annualizing the prior 90 days of their actual consumption of MongoDB Atlas, assuming no increases or reductions in their subscriptions or usage. For all other customers of our self-serve products, we calculate annualized MRR by annualizing the prior 30 days of their actual consumption of such products, assuming no increases or reductions in usage. ARR and annualized MRR exclude professional services. Prior to January 31, 2020, ARR from Direct Sales Customers of MongoDB Atlas was based on their contractual commitments instead of their actual consumption. We believe that our new consumption-based ARR calculation better reflects current customer behavior. The impact of this change on prior reported periods is immaterial.
