SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Palo Alto Networks (NYSE: PANW), the global cybersecurity leader, announced today financial results for its fiscal first quarter 2021, ended October 31, 2020.
Total revenue for the fiscal first quarter 2021 grew 23% year over year to $946.0 million, compared with total revenue of $771.9 million for the fiscal first quarter 2020. GAAP net loss for the fiscal first quarter 2021 was $92.2 million, or $0.97 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net loss of $59.6 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the fiscal first quarter 2020.
Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal first quarter 2021 was $158.1 million, or $1.62 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $104.8 million, or $1.05 per diluted share, for the fiscal first quarter 2020. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables below.
“We delivered another consecutive strong quarter of solid results, with first quarter billings of 21% year-over-year growth; both our firewall transformation and our Next-Generation Security services continue to make great progress, giving us confidence to raise previously issued guidance for the year,” said Nikesh Arora, chairman and CEO of Palo Alto Networks. “We introduced several significant product enhancements across the portfolio and were recognized by industry analysts as a leader in two Gartner Magic Quadrants as well as Zero Trust. Additionally, we are excited about our proposed acquisition of Expanse, Inc., which we announced last week.”
Financial Outlook
Palo Alto Networks provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations.
For the fiscal second quarter 2021, we expect:
For the fiscal year 2021, we are raising guidance and expect:
Our fiscal year 2021 guidance includes the expected impact from the proposed acquisition of Expanse, Inc. We expect Expanse to contribute approximately 100 basis points of billings growth and approximately 50 basis points of revenue growth, after acquisition accounting adjustments.
Guidance for non-GAAP financial measures excludes share-based compensation-related charges, including share-based payroll tax expense, acquisition-related costs, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, litigation-related charges, including legal settlements, gains (losses) related to facility exit, non-cash charges related to convertible notes, foreign currency gains (losses), and income and other tax effects associated with these items, along with certain non-recurring expenses. We have not reconciled diluted non-GAAP net income per share guidance to GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share because we do not provide guidance on GAAP net income (loss) and would not be able to present the various reconciling cash and non-cash items between GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income, including share-based compensation expense, without unreasonable effort. Share-based compensation expense is impacted by the company’s future hiring and retention needs and, to a lesser extent, the future fair market value of the company’s common stock, all of which is difficult to predict and subject to constant change. The actual amounts of such reconciling items will have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP net income (loss) per diluted share.
Earnings Call Information
Palo Alto Networks will host a video webcast for analysts and investors to discuss the company’s fiscal first quarter 2021 results as well as the outlook for its fiscal second quarter 2021 today at 8:00 a.m. Eastern time/5:00 a.m. Pacific time. Open to the public, investors may access the webcast, supplemental financial information and earnings slides from the “Investors” section of the company’s website at investors.paloaltonetworks.com. A replay will be available three hours after the conclusion of the webcast and archived for one year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics
Palo Alto Networks 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 and other key metrics internally in analyzing its financial results and believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics are useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing the company’s financial results with other companies in its industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures or key metrics.
The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics 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 the company’s historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations.
Non-GAAP net income and net income per share, diluted. Palo Alto Networks defines non-GAAP net income as net income (loss) plus share-based compensation-related charges, including share-based payroll tax expense, acquisition-related costs, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, litigation-related charges, including legal settlements, gains (losses) related to facility exit, non-cash charges related to convertible notes, and intellectual property restructuring-related charges. The company also excludes from non-GAAP net income the foreign currency gains (losses) and tax effects associated with these items in order to provide a complete picture of the company’s recurring core business operating results. The company defines non-GAAP net income per share, diluted, as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding, which includes the potentially dilutive effect of the company’s employee equity incentive plan awards and the company’s convertible senior notes outstanding and related warrants, after giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the company’s note hedge agreements, which reduces the potential economic dilution that otherwise would occur upon conversion of the company’s convertible senior notes. Under GAAP, the anti-dilutive impact of the note hedge is not reflected in diluted shares outstanding. The company believes that excluding these items from non-GAAP net income and net income per share, diluted, provides management and investors with greater visibility into the underlying performance of the company’s core business operating results, meaning its operating performance excluding these items and, from time to time, other discrete charges that are infrequent in nature, over multiple periods.
Billings. Palo Alto Networks defines billings as total revenue plus the change in total deferred revenue, net of acquired deferred revenue, during the period. The company considers billings to be a key metric used by management to manage the company’s business given the company’s hybrid-SaaS revenue model, and believes billings provides investors with an important indicator of the health and visibility of the company’s business because it includes subscription and support revenue, which is recognized ratably over the contractual service period, and product revenue, which is recognized at the time of shipment, provided that all other conditions for revenue recognition have been met. The company considers billings to be a useful metric for management and investors, particularly if sales of subscriptions continue to increase and the company experiences strong renewal rates for subscriptions and support.
Investors are cautioned that there are a number of limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics as analytical tools. In particular, the billings metric reported by the company includes amounts that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Additionally, many of the adjustments to the company’s GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in the company’s financial results for the foreseeable future, such as share-based compensation, which is an important part of Palo Alto Networks employees’ compensation and impacts their performance. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP, and the components that Palo Alto Networks excludes in its calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their non-GAAP results of operations. Palo Alto Networks compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures. In the future, the company may also exclude non-recurring expenses and other expenses that do not reflect the company’s core business operating results.

Nokia Stock Still Hobbled by 5G Ineptitude
Some stories — you know, crazy pandemics, crazier elections, craziest wardrobe fails — make so many headlines these days that they’ve shoved otherwise major developments off to the side. One of those, 5G technology, promises to change mobile communications like nothing else in generations. Vying for a nice slice of the pie is Nokia (NYSE:NOK), much to the delight of those who own Nokia stock.
The trouble is that with this 5G bakeoff, Nokia will at best win ugly and at worst lose uglier, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Just a few months back, Nokia had a full tummy eating the dust of China’s privately held Huawei Technologies — then the world’s undisputed 5G leader. But when the Commerce Department, citing Chinese espionage concerns, cut off Huawei’s access to advanced computer chips, it created a mobile miracle for Nokia and other players, including its Swedish rival Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC).
The $21 billion question, then (that’s Nokia’s market capitalization) centers on whether the Finnish company has leveraged or squandered this once-in-a-cellular-lifetime opportunity. Effective Aug. 1, new CEO Pekka Lundmark was given the reigns to make victory possible. How’s he doing so far? And how’s Nokia stock doing given its recently ended quarter?
The vernacular phrase quants and investment wonks use to describe NOK is “no can do.” If Lundmark’s return to Nokia after two decades away was supposed to inspire the troops, it’s hardly done any wonders for shareholders. Since August, Nokia stock has lopped off a quarter of its value.
Granted, much of the slump came off a terrible third quarter that largely predates Lundmark’s arrival. When that earnings report was released Oct. 29, shares of Nokia stock tumbled 13% as the company cut its full-year and margin forecasts.
You have to admire Lundmark for putting on a brave face for his first-ever earnings release, given the glum nature of the news. He proclaimed that Nokia would do “whatever it takes” to take the lead in 5G — which is fine, except for a few things. Very big things. Huge things no new CEO can just pretend or pray will go away like a screened spam caller.
First: If you can’t take the 5G lead or get anywhere close to it when the top dog is effectively cut off at the knees — which would require, in essence, nothing but just showing up — then you’re not going to convince anyone you’ll do “whatever it takes.”
Second: Lundmark needs to prove he’s more than just a feel-good story. Sure, he’s returning to the company where he built his career — but hasn’t been around Nokia since the flip-phone era. He honed his CEO chops at Fortum (OTCMKTS:FOJCF), a Finnish energy company, and the analogy that could hold is that a championship football coach might not find his winning skills translate well to synchronized swimming.
Finally: Nokia stock has lacked consistency and upward trajectory. While dismal this quarter, Nokia’s net profit for the April-June period shot up 22% to $376 million, this despite the challenges all telecoms have faced due to the novel coronavirus. So are we looking at a company on its way up? Or down? Or up and down?
You tell me. If long-run prices were long distance calls, Nokia sends more mixed signals than you’d find in a Manhattan subway during a solar eclipse. Since 2016, prices have waxed or waned 25% or more every single year, and sometimes both (2017). Since January 2019, Nokia stock has been on a frightening nosedive of 37%. Quick Pekka! Call in the analysts! Who say…
Well, they’re hanging in there. The Wall Street Journal reports that currently, more than half (17 of 32) consider Nokia a buy. But 13 call it a hold and with a consensus share price target of $4.47 per share, we’re not talking champagne in the bathtub. (If we were, we’d kindly ask you not to drop your $700 Nokia 8.3 phone in there.) At present, Nokia stock trades at $3.75 so yes, a 19% lift would be nice. But again, so much depends on this little thing called 5G.
I’m going to be honest: Nokia stock stumps me. On paper, it looks like it has all the elements to succeed, including an attractive price-to-earnings ratio of 24-to-1. With Huawei hobbled, 5G dominance is very much in the air and Nokia is still in the early innings of a new game. The new CEO may see paths to victory his predecessors did not.
But to my mind and my gut, Nokia’s only consistency over the years has been its inconsistency. Bold moves, including the purchase of Alcatel-Lucent for $16.6 billion in 2015, have fizzled badly. Some people would call this a great time to buy the bottom; I’m more apt to call it flinging dollars into a broad, flat mud puddle.
All that to say: While it’s not at all proper to write Nokia’s 5G epitaph, the company hasn’t proven ready to write a new chapter either. Those who hold Nokia stock only know the first line: “Whatever it takes,” right? Now that’s making a statement. Just not a case.
