Glossary

  • 1) Annualised Contract Value (ACV) is an adjusted, non-IFRS measure and does not represent Total Revenue in accordance with AAS or Nuix’s accounting policies or cash receipts from customers. ACV is used by Nuix to assess the total contract value of its software contracts on an annualised basis (removing fluctuations from Multi-Year Deal contracts in Nuix’s Total Revenue which results from its revenue recognition policies). The calculation of ACV at the end of the relevant financial period adjusts Total Revenue to account for: A) Revenue generated from Subscription Licences with a term of 12 months or more, as well as Consumption Licences which exists at the end of the relevant financial period as if those contracts’ revenues were generated (and recognised) in each financial year on a straight-line basis over the relevant contract period, expressed on an annualised basis B) last 12 month contribution from short term Software Licences (including Perpetual Licences) or other Software Licences with a term of less than 12 months, excluding Consumption Licences; and C) the last 12 month contribution of services and third party software sales.

  • 2) Net Dollar Retention (NDR) , expressed as a percentage, represents the ACV from the sale of Subscription Licences (excluding short-term Software Licences, or licences with a term of less than 12 months, but including Consumption Licences) from a constant set of customers (the “NDR Constant Customer Set”) across comparable periods (i.e. it excludes the impact of new customers acquired in the subsequent (i.e. more recent period), taking into account the impact of Upsell, Downsell and Churn (as described in note 4) between these two periods.

  • 3) Churn , expressed as a percentage, reflects the lost customer ACV from Subscription Licences (excluding short-term Software Licences, or licences with a term of less than 12 months, but including Consumption Licences) in respect of a twelve-month period which are terminated or not renewed (a contract will not count towards Churn if it was renewed or recommenced within three months of the end of the given period), as a proportion of ACV from Subscription Licences (excluding short-term Software Licences, or licences with a term of less than 12 months, but including Consumption Licences) at the start of that period.

  • 4) Subscription ACV reflects revenue generated from Subscription Licences with a term of 12 months and Consumption Licences which exists at the end of the relevant financial period as if those contracts’ revenues were generated (and recognised) in each financial year on a straight-line basis over the relevant contract period, expressed on an annualised basis. Subscription ACV excludes short term Software Licences (including Perpetual Licences) or other Software Licences with a term of less than 12 months, but includes Consumption Licences.

  • 5) Other ACV reflects the last twelve-month contribution of Perpetual Licence sales, services and third-party software and short-term Software Licences, or licences with a term of less than 12 months but excluding Consumption Licences.

  • 6) Consumption ACV is a sub-component of Subscription ACV and reflects the monthly contribution generated relating to gigabytes processed or under management relating to SaaS Consumption ACV and Non-SaaS Consumption ACV at the end of the relevant period, expressed on an annualised basis.

  • 7) SaaS Consumption ACV is a sub-component of Consumption ACV and reflects monthly contribution generated relating to gigabytes processed or under management hosted in Nuix's cloud environments, expressed on an annualised basis.

  • 8) Non-SaaS Consumption ACV is a sub-component of Consumption ACV and reflects monthly contribution generated relating to gigabytes processed or under management that is not hosted in Nuix's cloud environments, expressed on an annualised basis.

Constant Currency and Pro forma Adjustments

Constant Currency has been calculated using the below methodology:

  1. Constant currency rates are calculated by dividing the total FY20 consolidated AUD revenue associated with a currency by the total FY20 transaction currency revenue of the same currency, providing a weighted average exchange rate based on statutory revenue transactions in FY20. This is then checked against the average daily rate provided by the RBA for appropriateness.

  2. This modified rate is then applied at a transaction level across FY21 data to ensure that all metrics (region, domain, P&L department etc.) are re-weighted appropriately.

  3. Where there is a cost transaction in a currency where there is no revenue transaction, the average RBA rate for FY20 is used.

  4. Exchange rates used for constant currency calculations:

  5. USD 1.4975

  6. EUR 1.6505

  7. GBP 1.8832

  8. CAD 1.0931

Pro forma adjustments

  • This presentation includes pro forma numbers for FY21 and the comparative period prepared on the same basis as presented in the Prospectus dated 18 November 2020.

  • The pro forma adjustments in FY21 remove the impact of offer costs, non-recurring transaction costs related to a sale process explored by Nuix as an alternative to the offer, and share-based payment expenses in respect of existing options that were cancelled on completion. The pro forma adjustments for FY21 also provide for a full year of listed company costs and the relevant tax impact of the pro forma adjustments.
