Lightspeed reports in U.S. dollars and in accordance with IFRS.

MONTREAL, May 21, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - Lightspeed POS Inc. ("Lightspeed" or the "Company") (TSX: LSPD), a leading provider of omni-channel point of sale platforms, today announced financial results for the three- and twelve-month periods ended March 31, 2020.

In the month of March, Lightspeed saw record uptake of Lightspeed eCommerce, Lightspeed Delivery and Lightspeed Payments platforms as retailers and hospitality businesses worldwide adopted new sales channels to continue reaching customers amidst the outbreak of COVID-19. The need for an omni-channel cloud solution coupled with modern, integrated payment solutions is no longer a competitive differentiator, but a business imperative.

"We are witnessing a historic shift in the way small and medium-sized businesses, the businesses at the heart of our communities, engage in commerce. Being omni-channel has never been more important." said Dax Dasilva, Lightspeed Founder and CEO. "Our merchants are progressive, omni-channel thought-leaders that continuously reinvent the retail and hospitality landscapes. We are proud to be their key technology partner and are committed to powering their growth."

As the implications of the pandemic became clearer in March, Lightspeed swiftly transitioned staff worldwide to remote work and immediately rolled out initiatives designed to support merchants during this unprecedented time, including:

• Affordable access to solutions, such as Lightspeed eCommerce, Lightspeed Delivery, Lightspeed Loyalty and Lightspeed Payments, to help merchants optimize their business models to continue reaching consumers.
• Staff deployments to support the immediate onboarding of record numbers of merchants seeking overnight adoption of digital sales channels.
• Regularly updated resources to help merchants connect to government-led relief programs.
• Strategic private and municipal partnerships to extend discounted solutions to communities in need of rapid transformation.
• The #lightspeedlocal initiative, which reimburses employees who shop through e-commerce or dine takeout or delivery from their local Lightspeed retailers and restaurants, a tangible method of enabling the global workforce to support small business.

"We delivered strong financial results to finish up our fiscal year, despite the difficult macro environment encountered through the back half of March," said Brandon Nussey, Lightspeed's CFO. "While the effects of COVID-19 will cause some uncertainty for the foreseeable future, we are encouraged by the signs we are seeing for Lightspeed's solutions and what it signals for our long-term potential. With over $210 million in unrestricted cash we are well positioned to invest smartly through this period and emerge as an even stronger global leader for our customers."

Operational and Business Highlights

(All comparisons are relative to the full fiscal year ended 2019 unless otherwise stated):

• Lightspeed powered approximately 76,500 customer locations² worldwide as of March 31, 2020, an increase from 49,000 a year prior.
• Achieved positive net dollar retention rates² again in Fiscal 2020 indicating ongoing customer success using Lightspeed and increased customer appetite to grow their relationship with Lightspeed.
• The number of customers (excluding customers from its three most recent acquisitions) using more than one Lightspeed module grew from 33% at March 31, 2019 to 40% at March 31, 2020 led in part by strong recent adoption of Lightspeed eCommerce to power online stores for customers, Lightspeed Delivery to better enable hospitality customers to launch home delivery offerings, Lightspeed Loyalty to help customers stay in touch with their patrons across multiple selling channels, and Lightspeed Payments to help merchants save time and money and streamline their operations.
• Lightspeed's platforms enabled retailers such as Out There Outfitters, in business for more than 25 years, to quickly establish an online presence and enable curbside pick-up to drive sales and remain connected to their community. Similarly, Montréal-based Editorial Boutique rapidly designed a pop-up Lightspeed eCommerce site, complemented by virtual sessions with in-store stylists, allowing boutique employees to deliver highly personalized recommendations to customers. London-based hospitality merchant Absurd Bird used Lightspeed to strategically redesign menus in its six brick-and-mortar locations in bulk and alter its kitchen layouts to be more delivery-friendly, while Ratcliffe Golf Services, based in North Carolina, used online booking to eliminate points of contact and keep courses operational.
• GTV² processed by retailers and hospitality businesses on Lightspeed platforms grew by more than 70% to over $6.1 billion in the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 and to over $22.3 billion for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2020. The average GTV processed by a Lightspeed customer is now >$600,000 per annum.
• The portion of customers contracting for Lightspeed Payments alongside their core software subscription increased again this quarter, eclipsing 60%. A record number of existing customers agreed to switch to Lightspeed Payments as well.
• Ongoing success of Lightspeed's omni-channel cloud offering to mid-market customers and with a new team dedicated to that effort. Lightspeed's solutions have proven capabilities in serving multi-location customers, including the newly-signed Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort, a golf experience located on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina and the Houston-based fashion and accessories retailer Charming Charlie, who chose Lightspeed Retail, Lightspeed Analytics and Lightspeed Loyalty for its 15 locations across the United States.
• Released the latest Lightspeed Restaurant solution across Europe with advancements around reporting and analytics, multi-location management, centralized menu management, and new mobile capabilities
• In late February, Lightspeed raised $130 million in capital through a bought deal offering.

Subsequent to Fourth Quarter

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related government shutdowns are impacting retailers and restaurants globally. We anticipate that customers' GTV and the demand for our services will be impacted and business failures in our customer base will increase so long as social distancing measures remain in place in the core markets we serve.

However, Lightspeed's solutions have been helping to offset the toll that the pandemic is taking on hospitality and retail industries around the world. The following trends have been apparent since the quarter end:

• As of today, despite present economic conditions, approximately three-quarters of Lightspeed's customers are actively trading, meaning that they are processing volume through Lightspeed's omni-channel cloud solutions.
• eCommerce adoption remains robust with a 400% increase in eCommerce volumes processed by Lightspeed retailers in April as compared to February 2020 levels.
• Overall GTV from Lightspeed retailers in April grew approximately 50% from March 2020 levels.
• Lightspeed Payments revenue had a record month in April, led by increased online sales, the impact of new customer adoption, and good performance across a subset of verticals such as home and garden, bike and pet.
• Hospitality customer volumes remain challenged due to the ongoing government mandated shutdowns affecting most markets. Lightspeed's hospitality revenue base is mainly subscription software revenue that is not variable to underlying customer volumes, with the largest concentration in countries like Australia, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the UK, and France.
• The number of hospitality customers now using home delivery and curbside pickup options has increased sharply. In Australia, for example, there has been 5x the volume through these channels versus a year ago.
• New customer demand was encouraging through April with new retailers, golf courses, restaurants and mid market opportunities all choosing Lightspeed solutions. While churn and customers on reduced subscription plans remained elevated compared to historical norms, Lightspeed ended April with approximately 75,500 customer locations subscribed to Lightspeed solutions.

Financial Outlook

Heightened uncertainty in the global economy is having an acute impact on everyone, including our customers, their consumers, our partners, our suppliers and our employees. The degree to which COVID-19 will affect our business, operating results and financial condition in upcoming quarters will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot currently be predicted. As such, Lightspeed is declining to provide a financial outlook at this time for both the quarter ending June 30, 2020 and the full year ending March 31, 2021. Above, however, we have given insight into trends we are witnessing in our business through April. In response to the present uncertainty, we have strategically re-directed discretionary spending and funding for certain go-to-market initiatives towards solution innovation. We believe we are witnessing an urgent and lasting paradigm shift in the needs of small and medium-sized retail and hospitality businesses and we believe strong fundamentals, including our broad omni-channel cloud solution set, geographically-diverse customer base balanced between retail and hospitality, subscription-based software business model, compelling payments offering, and strong balance sheet, position us well to capitalize on this shift.

Non-IFRS Measures

The information presented herein includes certain financial measures such as "Adjusted EBITDA", "non-IFRS Gross Profit", "non-IFRS general and administrative expenses", "non-IFRS research and development expenses", and "non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses". These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. These non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus may highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation.

Non-IFRS gross profit, non-IFRS general and administrative expenses, non-IFRS research and development expenses, and non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses are non-IFRS financial measures that exclude the effect of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll taxes, and in the case of non-IFRS general and administrative expenses and non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses, transaction-related costs.

"Adjusted EBITDA" is calculated as net loss excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, as adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and related payroll taxes, loss on the increase in fair value of redeemable preferred shares, compensation expenses relating to acquisitions complete, foreign exchange gains and losses, and transaction-related expenses.

Key Performance Indicators

We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions. Our key performance indicators may be calculated in a manner different than similar key performance indicators used by other companies.

Customer Locations. "Customer Location" means a billing customer location for which the term of services has not ended, or with which we are negotiating a renewal contract. A single unique customer can have multiple Customer Locations including physical and eCommerce sites.

Gross Transaction Volume. "Gross Transaction Volume" or "GTV" means the total dollar value of transactions processed through our cloud-based SaaS platform in the period, net of refunds, inclusive of shipping and handling, duty and value-added taxes.

Net Dollar Retention Rate. "Net Dollar Retention Rate" is calculated as of the end of each month by considering the cohort of customers on our commerce platforms as of the beginning of the month and dividing our subscription and payments revenue attributable to this cohort in the then-current month by total subscription and payments revenue attributable to this cohort in the immediately preceding month.

Forward-Looking Statements

In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management's expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events or circumstances.

Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, estimates and assumptions that we considered appropriate and reasonable as of the date such statements are made, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward‑looking information, including but not limited to the risk factors identified in our most recent Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and under "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Information Form, both of which are available under our profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the opinions, estimates or assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results or future events might vary materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information.

Although we have attempted to identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other risk factors not presently known to us or that we presently believe are not material that could also cause actual results or future events to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking information.

^(1)	This loss is with respect to the change in valuation of our Redeemable Preferred Shares from period to period, which is a non-cash item. Prior to the completion of our initial public offering on March 15, 2019, all of our Redeemable Preferred Shares were converted and the liability was reduced to $Nil with a corresponding increase in share capital. There will be no further impact on our results of operations from these shares.
^(2)	These expenses represent non-cash expenditures recognized in connection with issued stock options and other awards under our stock option plans to our employees and directors as well as related payroll taxes given that they are directly attributable to stock‑based compensation, are estimates and therefore subject to change. For the three months and fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the stock-based compensation expense was $4,060 and $8,870 respectively (March 31, 2019 - $706 and $1,693) and the related payroll taxes were a recovery of $1,384 and an expense of $1,060 respectively (March 31, 2019 - expense of $1,337 and $1,417).
^(3)	In connection with the adoption of IFRS 16 - Leases, on a modified retrospective basis, with no restatement of comparatives, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, net loss includes depreciation of $821 related to amortization of right-of-use assets, interest expense of $246 on lease liabilities, and excludes an amount of $954 relating to rent expense ($2,492, $852, and $2,894 respectively for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020).
^(4)	These non-cash losses (gains) relate to foreign exchange translation.
^(5)	These costs represent a portion of the consideration paid to acquired businesses that is associated with the ongoing employment obligations for certain key employees of such acquired businesses.
^(6)	These expenses relate to professional, legal, consulting and accounting fees relating to our initial public offering, our acquisitions, our secondary offering in August 2019 and our bought deal in February 2020 that would otherwise not have been incurred.
