Additional information on Rubrik's reported results, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP results to their most comparable GAAP measures, is included in the financial tables below. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty of expenses that may be incurred in the future, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to Rubrik's results computed in accordance with GAAP. For example, stock-based compensation-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of Rubrik's Class A common stock, and Rubrik's future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Rubrik has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Rubrik uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing its financial results and believes that use of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing Rubrik's financial results with other companies in its industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with Rubrik's condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of Rubrik's historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin. Rubrik defines free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less cash used for purchases of property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software. Rubrik believes free cash flow is a helpful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated or used by Rubrik's operations that, after the investments in property and equipment and capitalized internal-use software, can be used for strategic initiatives, including investing in Rubrik's business and strengthening its financial position. One limitation of free cash flow is that it does not reflect Rubrik's future contractual commitments. Additionally, free cash flow is not a substitute for cash provided by (used in) operating activities and the utility of free cash flow as a measure of Rubrik's liquidity is further limited as it does not represent the total increase or decrease in Rubrik's cash balance for a given period. Free cash flow margin is calculated as free cash flow divided by total revenue.

Non-GAAP Subscription Cost of Revenue. Rubrik defines non-GAAP subscription cost of revenue as subscription cost of revenue, adjusted for amortization of acquired intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, stock-based compensation included in amortization of capitalized internal-use software, and other non-recurring items.

Non-GAAP Operating Expenses (Research and Development, Sales and Marketing, General and Administrative). Rubrik defines non-GAAP operating expenses as operating expenses (research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative), adjusted for, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense, and other non-recurring items.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss), and Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss). Rubrik defines non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income (loss), and non-GAAP net income (loss) as the respective GAAP measure, excluding, as applicable, the effect of amortization of acquired intangibles, stock-based compensation expense, stock-based compensation included in amortization of capitalized internal-use software, amortization of debt issuance costs, other non-recurring items, and the related income tax effect of these adjustments.

Non-GAAP Gross Margin. Rubrik defines non-GAAP gross margin as non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of total revenue.

Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) Per Share, Basic and Diluted. Rubrik defines non-GAAP net income (loss) per share, basic as non-GAAP net income (loss) divided by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Our non-GAAP net income per share, diluted is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by the non-GAAP weighted-average number of diluted shares outstanding, which includes (a) the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stocks, employee stock purchase rights under our 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan), and (b) the potential dilutive effect of the shares issuable upon conversion of our convertible senior notes using the if-converted method.

Subscription Annual Recurring Revenue ("ARR") Contribution Margin. Rubrik defines Subscription ARR Contribution Margin as Subscription ARR contribution divided by Subscription ARR at the end of the period. Rubrik defines Subscription ARR Contribution as Subscription ARR at the end of the period less: (i) non-GAAP subscription cost of revenue and (ii) non-GAAP operating expenses for the prior 12-month period ending on that date. Rubrik believes that Subscription ARR Contribution Margin is a helpful indicator of operating leverage. One limitation of Subscription ARR Contribution Margin is that the factors that impact Subscription ARR will vary from those that impact subscription revenue and, as such, may not provide an accurate indication of Rubrik's actual or future GAAP results. Additionally, the historical expenses in this calculation may not accurately reflect the costs associated with future commitments.

Key Business Metrics

Subscription ARR. Rubrik calculates Subscription ARR as the annualized value of our active subscriptions as of the measurement date, based on our customers' total contract value, and assuming any contract that expires during the next 12 months is renewed on existing terms. Subscriptions include offerings for our RSC platform and related data security SaaS solutions, term-based licenses for our RSC-Private platform and related products, prior sales of CDM sold as a subscription term-based license with associated support and related SaaS products, and standalone sales of our SaaS subscription offerings like Anomaly Detection, Sensitive Data Monitoring and Resilience Guardian. Net new Subscription ARR refers to the difference between Subscription ARR in the reported period and Subscription ARR in the prior quarter, and captures new logos and expansions, offset by contraction and attrition since the prior quarter.

Cloud ARR. Rubrik calculates Cloud ARR as the annualized value of our active cloud-based subscriptions as of the measurement date, based on our customers' total contract value, and assuming any contract that expires during the next 12 months is renewed on existing terms. Our cloud-based subscriptions include RSC and RSC-Government (excluding RSC-Private). Cloud ARR also includes SaaS subscription offerings like Anomaly Detection and Sensitive Data Monitoring, which are sold standalone or with prior sales of term-based license offerings of CDM.

Average Subscription Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate. Rubrik calculates Average Subscription Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate by first identifying subscription customers ("Prior Period Subscription Customers") which were subscription customers at the end of a particular quarter (the "Prior Period"). Rubrik then calculates the Subscription ARR from these Prior Period Subscription Customers at the end of the same quarter of the subsequent year (the "Current Period"). This calculation captures upsells, contraction, and attrition since the Prior Period. Rubrik then divides total Current Period Subscription ARR by the total Prior Period Subscription ARR for Prior Period Subscription Customers. Rubrik's Average Subscription Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate in a particular quarter is obtained by averaging the result from that particular quarter with the corresponding results from each of the prior three quarters.

Customers with $100K or More in Subscription ARR. Customers with $100K or more in Subscription ARR represent the number of customers that contributed $100,000 or more in Subscription ARR as of period end.
