BOSTON - Klaviyo , Inc. (NYSE:KVYO), a provider of intelligent marketing automation software, saw its shares surge 7.4% after reporting fourth-quarter results that exceeded analyst expectations and issuing an optimistic outlook for fiscal year 2025.
The company posted revenue of $270.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, surpassing the consensus estimate of $257.47 million and representing a 34% increase YoY. However, adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.07, falling short of the $0.12 analysts had projected.
Klaviyo’s strong performance was driven by continued customer growth, with its total customer base expanding to over 167,000 by the end of fiscal 2024, up from 143,000 a year earlier. The company also reported increased penetration in higher-value accounts, with customers generating over $50,000 in annual recurring revenue growing 46% YoY to 2,850.
Looking ahead, Klaviyo provided an upbeat forecast for fiscal year 2025, projecting revenue between $1.156 billion and $1.164 billion, above the consensus estimate of $1.15 billion.
"We had a very strong finish to the year, crossing a $1 billion revenue run rate as we delivered our strongest Black Friday Cyber Monday yet," said Andrew Bialecki, co-founder and CEO of Klaviyo. "Our performance in 2024 highlights the critical role our intelligent, flexible data platform plays in driving growth for our more than 167,000 customers."
The company’s international expansion efforts appear to be paying off, with combined fourth-quarter revenue growth in EMEA and APAC regions reaching 42% YoY. Klaviyo also reported opening a new office in Dublin, Ireland to support its global growth initiatives.
Despite the positive revenue results, Klaviyo reported a GAAP operating loss of $34.7 million for the quarter. However, on a non-GAAP basis, the company achieved an operating income of $15.1 million, representing a 6% operating margin.
