Cost of revenue increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to higher direct costs generally consistent with increases in the related lines of revenue, higher personnel costs including benefits expenses from an increase in employee headcount in the trailing twelve months, higher internal licenses and fees from increased deployments and prices, and a rise in amortization from capital development projects placed into service in the trailing twelve months.Research and development expense increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to higher personnel costs (net of capitalization) including benefits expenses from an increase in employee headcount in the trailing twelve months.Selling, general, and administrative expense decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the decrease in non-recurring costs when compared to the prior fiscal year quarter.

Effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, were 24.0% and 23.7%, respectively.

 

According to Mimi Carsley, CFO and Treasurer, “For the first quarter of the fiscal year, revenue and operating margins were aligned with our plan and expectations and we continue to expect stronger performance in the second half of our fiscal year. Our private cloud revenue grew over 11% and processing services continued to drive strong revenue growth at over 6%, each contributing to our overall revenue expansion of over 5% and operating income increase of 2% on a non-GAAP basis.”

6Operating margin is calculated by dividing operating income by revenue. Operating margin plus operating expense components as a percentage of total revenue may not equal 100% due to rounding.

*The VEDIP program expense for the fiscal three months ended September 30, 2024, was related to a Company voluntary separation program offered to certain eligible employees beginning in July 2023.

**GAAP revenue is comprised of services and support and processing revenues (see page 2). Reducing services and support revenue by deconversion revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023 which was $3,697 for the current fiscal year quarter and $4,136 for the prior fiscal year quarter, results in non-GAAP adjusted services and support revenue growth of 4.4% quarter over quarter. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to processing revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, or 2023.

***Non-GAAP adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted operating income by non-GAAP adjusted revenue.

****The tax impact of adjustments is calculated using a tax rate of 24% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023. The tax rate for non-GAAP adjustment items takes a broad look at our recurring tax adjustments and applies them to non-GAAP revenue that does not have its own specific tax impacts.

The tables below show the segment break-out of revenue and cost of revenue for each period presented, as adjusted for the items above, and include a reconciliation to non-GAAP adjusted operating income presented above.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting in the United States. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted segment income, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating margin, adjusted segment income margin, non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (non-GAAP EBITDA), free cash flow, return on invested capital (ROIC), non-GAAP adjusted net income, and non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS).

We believe non-GAAP financial measures help investors better understand the underlying fundamentals and true operations of our business. Adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted  segment income, adjusted segment income margin, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income, and non-GAAP EPS eliminate one-time deconversion revenue and associated costs and the effects of the VEDIP program expense, which management believes are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance. Such adjustments give investors further insight into our performance. Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to the Company before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for net income before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization attributable to eliminated one-time deconversions and the VEDIP program expense. Free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities, less capitalized expenditures, internal use software, and capitalized software, plus proceeds from the sale of assets. ROIC is defined as net income divided by average invested capital, which is the average of beginning and ending long-term debt and stockholders’ equity for a given period. Management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA is an important measure of the Company’s overall operating performance and excludes certain costs and other transactions that management deems one time or non-operational in nature; free cash flow is useful to measure the funds generated in a given period that are available for debt service requirements and strategic capital decisions; and ROIC is a measure of the Company’s allocation efficiency and effectiveness of its invested capital. For these reasons, management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its assessment and management of the Company’s performance.

Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore, are unlikely to be comparable with calculations of similar measures for other companies.

Any non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to related GAAP measures are included.

Nest Partners with Dinari to Deliver Real World Yield Through First Tokenized Blackstone ETF on Plume

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Nest, the flagship RWA staking protocol exclusive to Plume Network, today announced the first tokenized Blackstone ETF vault through its partnership with Dinari. Nest’s new permissionless vault features the Blackstone Senior Loan ETF, and will deliver real world yields to DeFi users once the vault is launched on Plume mainnet. This announcement marks a significant expansion of Dinari’s long-term partnership with Plume, as the established tokenization platform brings institutional-grade assets into the rapidly growing Plume ecosystem.

The first tokenized Blackstone ETF on Plume Network joins Nest’s suite of yield-generating solutions, which includes the Treasuries Vault for professional firms and the High Yield Vault for growth-focused strategies.

“By launching this first-ever tokenized Blackstone ETF vault, we’re creating new opportunities for users to access institutional yields,” said Teddy Pornprinya, Co-founder at Plume. “Our partnership with Dinari transforms traditionally exclusive products into accessible opportunities through permissionless infrastructure.”

Through this latest vault, users who stake stablecoins into a vault on Nest receive yield tokens that appreciate in value as SRLN.d, Dinari’s tokenized version of the SPDR Blackstone Senior Loan ETF, generates returns. The ETF provides strong downside protection through floating rate yields indexed to SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate).

The vault benefits from SRLN.d’s key features: competitive yields with automatic dividend accrual and reinvestment, full backing by the underlying Blackstone ETF, and guaranteed 1:1 USDC redemption. Blackstone oversees the management of the underlying assets, while Alpaca Securities provides brokerage services for asset transactions.

The floating rate structure provides natural protection against interest rate fluctuations. Blackstone’s ETF is included in a variety of vaults on Nest, where it provides the base level stability and yield. It’s paired with liquidity from yield-bearing stablecoin protocols Mountain and M^0, serving both retail users and liquidity providers.

Nest’s infrastructure has been secured by multiple firms. The protocol’s smart contracts have been audited by SlowMist, while Trail of Bits and Zellic have audited the broader protocol infrastructure. All Nest vaults, including this latest offering, are assessed by institutional risk manager Cicada Partners.

The integration of Dinari’s Blackstone ETF products marks only the beginning of a longstanding collaboration between Nest and Dinari. Future plans include deeper integration through shared global neobank initiatives and expanded access to highly liquid, yield-bearing assets, all powered by Plume’s infrastructure.

This growing partnership will continue to bring institutional-grade investment opportunities to Plume’s expanding ecosystem of protocols and users.

About Nest
Nest is a flagship staking protocol for users to earn RWA yield on their stablecoins. Designed to be a precisionless way for global users to deposit into vaults, the protocol lets fund managers, issuers, and RWA protocols create their own structured offerings. Audited by Trail of Bits and Zellic, Nest leverages Plume’s unique infrastructure to let its global user base participate in traditionally limited asset classes.
