Roadzen Reports Record Revenue Growth in its First Fiscal Year as a Public Company

  • Full year revenue of $46.7 million, up from $13.5 million in the prior year, a 245% increase.
  • Net loss of $99.7 million is impacted by non-cash, non-recurring and extraordinary items, resulting in an Adjusted EBITDA1 loss of $10.4 million, a 5.1% increase over last year.
  • As of market close on June 28, 2024 Roadzen was included in the Russell 2000®, Russell 3000®, and Russell Microcap® indexes bringing new institutional shareholders.

NEW YORK, July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roadzen Inc. (Nasdaq: RDZN) ("Roadzen" or the "Company”), a global leader in AI at the convergence of insurance and mobility, today announced its results for the twelve-months ended March 31, 2024.

"Roadzen had a remarkable year, achieving substantial revenue growth, maintaining our trajectory towards profitability, and significantly expanding our presence in the U.S. and U.K. markets, along with continued strong growth in India," commented Rohan Malhotra, CEO and Founder of Roadzen. "Our advanced technology group and AI research lab now support a robust global client base and infrastructure, including 101 large enterprise clients, such as leading insurers, automakers, and large fleets, in addition to approximately 3,200 small and medium businesses, including agents, brokers, dealerships, and smaller fleets. Looking ahead, we anticipate continued momentum and establishing Roadzen as a leader in vertical AI for auto insurance within the public markets, leveraging the strong foundation we've built over the past year."

Jean-Noël Gallardo, Roadzen’s CFO commented, “In preparation for 2024 year-end, we focused on simplifying and streamlining the organizational structure and internal financial reporting protocols to ready the Company for scale and another breakout year in 2025. We also focused on streamlining operations and eliminating redundancies. This allowed us to rationalize small subsidiaries that no longer align with our strategy, yielding a 7% reduction in headcount and the closure of under-performing assets.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of finance costs, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other items from reported net profit or loss. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA aids investors by providing an operating profit/loss without the impact of non- cash depreciation and amortization and certain other items to help clarify sustainability and trends affecting the business. For comparability of reporting, management considers non-GAAP measures in conjunction with U.S. GAAP financial results in evaluating business performance. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by, or used for, operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be used as a measure of liquidity.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for financial information presented under GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures versus comparable financial measures determined under GAAP. For example, other companies in our industry may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance. These limitations could reduce the usefulness of these non- GAAP financial measures as analytical tools. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and to not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

The following table reconciles our net loss reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA:
