Material Changes and Outlook
Rapid7 has updated its guidance for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, reflecting the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Management expects Annualized Recurring Revenue (ARR) for the second quarter of 2020 to be lower than initially anticipated due to a pullback in customer spending and renewals. The company anticipates the DivvyCloud acquisition will close in the second quarter of 2020, subject to customary conditions.
Risks, Contingencies, and Management Commentary
- COVID-19 Impact: The pandemic has caused remote work transitions, potential delays in sales cycles, and requests for payment deferrals. While Q1 2020 results were not materially adversely impacted, future periods face uncertainty regarding demand, renewals, and receivables collection.
- Acquisition Risks: The DivvyCloud deal is subject to closing conditions, including regulatory consents and the effectiveness of representation and warranty insurance. Failure to close or integration challenges could negatively impact stock price and operations.
- Financial Covenants: The Credit Agreement includes restrictions on indebtedness, liens, and dividends. It prohibits cash or stock settlement payments for convertible debt conversions if a default event is occurring.
- Forward-Looking Statements: Guidance is speculative and based on assumptions regarding the duration of the pandemic and the timing of economic recovery. Actual results may differ materially.
