Monday.com Sees Growth Despite Slow Net Retention

Monday.com is continuing its streak of quick growth following its IPO.

With a 42% rise in revenue for the second quarter of 2023, Monday.com, the cloud-based platform that allows users to create apps, is impressing investors. Not only did the company narrow its operating and net losses, but it also improved its cash generation. As a result, the stock has soared by nearly 15% this morning.

Although Monday.com is experiencing a slowdown in net retention growth, a common occurrence among software companies, investors remain optimistic. Software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies rely on selling products to new and existing customers, and Monday.com operates on a per-seat basis.

Navigating Slow Net Retention

When net retention growth slows, increasing revenue becomes challenging and costlier, as acquiring new customers is more expensive than selling additional seats to existing customers. This slowdown poses a significant hurdle for tech companies, particularly startups, as they need to conserve cash while maintaining steady growth. How did Monday.com overcome this challenge and continue to impress investors? Let’s dive in.

Positive Financial Report

In the second quarter of 2023, Monday.com reported revenue of $175.7 million. However, the company significantly narrowed its operating loss from $46.2 million to $12.2 million compared to the previous year. The net loss also decreased from $1.01 per share to $0.15 per share.

Moreover, excluding one-time costs, Monday.com achieved an adjusted operating income of $16.6 million, surpassing the $15.4 million from the previous year.

Notably, the company made impressive strides in improving its cash flows, ensuring a stronger financial position.
