Agora, Inc. (NASDAQ: API) (the “Company”), a pioneer and leader in
real-time engagement technology, today announced its unaudited
financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
“Recently, we launched our Conversational AI SDK
in collaboration with OpenAI’s Realtime API to allow developers to
bring voice-driven AI experiences to any app. We believe multimodal
AI agents that can interact with human through natural voice will
gain widespread adoption across many use cases such as customer
support, education and wellness, and Agora is well positioned to
become a key infrastructure provider for real-time conversational
AI,” said Tony Zhao, founder, chairman and CEO of Agora. “To
support this vision, we recently made some structural changes,
aligning our organization to fully leverage the accelerating
conversational AI opportunities, and operate in a faster, leaner,
and more responsive fashion. These changes will help us build the
next generation real-time engagement technology for the Generative
AI era and strengthen our position as the leader in real-time
engagement space.”

Results

$31.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, a decrease of 9.8% from
$35.0 million in the same period last year. Revenues of Agora were
$15.7 million in the third quarter of 2024, an increase of 2.6%
from $15.3 million in the same period last year, primarily due to
our business expansion and usage growth in sectors such as live
shopping. Revenues of Shengwang were RMB112.9 million ($15.9
million) in the third quarter of 2024, a decrease of 20.0% from
RMB141.2 million ($19.7 million) in the same period last year,
primarily due to a decrease in revenues of RMB 17.5 million ($2.4
million) due to the end-of-sale of certain products and reduced
usage from customers in certain sectors such as social and
entertainment as a result of challenging macroeconomic and
regulatory environment.
Cost of RevenuesCost of
revenues was $10.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, a decrease
of 16.4% from $12.6 million in the same period last year, primarily
due to the end-of-sale of certain products and the decrease in
bandwidth usage and costs, which was offset partially by severance
expenses for customer support teams of $0.3 million.

of 2024, a decrease of 6.1% from $22.4 million in the same period
last year. Gross margin was 66.7% in the third quarter of 2024, an
increase of 2.7% from 64.0% in the same period last year, mainly
due to the end-of-sale of certain low-margin products, which was
offset partially by higher severance expenses in the third quarter
of 2024.
Operating ExpensesOperating
expenses were $45.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, an
increase of 24.3% from $36.9 million in the same period last year,
primarily due to the increase in restructuring and severance
expenses in the third quarter of 2024, which included share-based
compensation of $11.4 million as a result of the cancellation of
certain employees’ equity awards and immediate recognition of
relevant remaining unrecognized compensation expenses, as well as

severance expenses of $3.6 million.
- Sales and
marketing expenses were $6.9 million in the third quarter
of 2024, a decrease of 11.9% from $7.8 million in the same period
last year, primarily due to a decrease in personnel costs as the
Company optimized its global workforce, which was offset partially
by severance expenses of $0.7 million in the third quarter of
2024.
- General and
administrative expenses were $9.7 million in the third
quarter of 2024, an increase of 7.4% from $9.1 million in the same
period last year, primarily due to restructuring and severance

cancellation, which was offset partially by a decrease in personnel
costs as the Company optimized its global workforce.

to $13.9 million in the same period last year.

financial products issued by banks and the decrease in average
interest rate realized.

million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to an

Use of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
The Company has provided in this press release
financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States
(“GAAP”). The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures
internally in analyzing its financial results and believe that the
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 its financial results with other companies in its
industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial
measures. Besides free cash flow (as defined below), each of these
non-GAAP financial measures represents the corresponding GAAP
financial measure before share-based compensation expenses,
acquisition related expenses, amortization expenses of acquired
intangible assets, income tax related to acquired intangible assets
and impairment of goodwill. The Company believes that such non-GAAP
financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business
that could otherwise be distorted by the effects of such
share-based compensation expenses, acquisition related expenses,
amortization expenses of acquired intangible assets, income tax
related to acquired intangible assets and impairment of goodwill
that it includes in its cost of revenues, total operating expenses
and net income (loss). The Company believes that all such non-GAAP
financial measures also provide useful information about its
operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past
performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility
with respect to key metrics used by its management in its financial
and operational decision-making.
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 the
Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP. A reconciliation of its historical non-GAAP financial
measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been
provided in the tables captioned “Reconciliation of GAAP to
Non-GAAP Measures” included at the end of this press release, and
investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation.
Definitions of the Company’s non-GAAP financial
measures included in this press release are presented below.
Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)
Non-GAAP net income (loss) is defined as net
income (loss) adjusted to exclude share-based compensation
expenses, acquisition related expenses, amortization expenses of
acquired intangible assets, income tax related to acquired
intangible assets and impairment of goodwill.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment
(excluding the acquisition of land use right and the payment for
the headquarters project). The Company considers free cash flow to
be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to
management and investors regarding net cash provided by operating
activities and cash used for investments in property and equipment
required to maintain and grow the business.
Operating Metrics
The Company also uses other operating metrics
included in this press release and defined below to assess the
performance of its business.
Active Customers
An active customer at the end of any period is
defined as an organization or individual developer from which the
Company generated more than $100 of revenue during the preceding 12
months. Customers are counted based on unique customer account
identifiers. Generally, one software application uses the same
customer account identifier throughout its life cycle while one
account may be used for multiple applications.
Dollar-Based Net Retention
Rate
Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate is calculated
for a trailing 12-month period by first identifying all customers
in the prior 12-month period, and then calculating the quotient
from dividing the revenue generated from such customers in the
trailing 12-month period by the revenue generated from the same
group of customers in the prior 12-month period. As the vast
majority of revenue generated from Agora’s customers is denominated
in U.S. dollars, while the vast majority of revenue generated from
Shengwang’s customers is denominated in Renminbi, Dollar-Based Net
Retention Rate is calculated in U.S. dollars for Agora and in
Renminbi for Shengwang, which has substantially removed the impact
of foreign currency translations. Shengwang excluded the revenues
from certain end-of-sale products, Easemob’s CEC business and K12
academic tutoring sector. The Company believes Dollar-Based Net
Retention Rate facilitates operating performance comparisons on a
period-to-period basis.
