Bird Global, Inc. (“Bird” or the “Company”) (NYSE:BRDS), a leader in environmentally friendly electric transportation, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Travis VanderZanden, Founder and CEO of Bird, said, “Our third quarter results illustrate how we continue to capitalize on robust consumer demand and further our path to profitability driven by strong execution and compelling unit economics. We have scaled our operations to over 350 cities, including deepened expansion into long-tail markets enabled by the strength of our Fleet Manager program, and have continued to deliver innovative vehicle improvements across our fleets. We believe our results to date, combined with our progress across our strategic initiatives, position us well to deliver on our increased expectations for 2021 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA.”

Full Year 2021 Outlook

“We have exceeded our expectations year-to-date for revenue, gross margin, Ride Profit, and Adjusted EBITDA,” said Yibo Ling, Chief Financial Officer of Bird. “Our world class operations team has continued to consistently deliver Ride Profit Margins (before Vehicle Depreciation) improvement, with 47% Ride Profit Margins over the last twelve months despite continued COVID-19 headwinds and global supply chain constraints. This performance gives us confidence to increase our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA expectations for full year 2021.”

The Company has increased its outlook for full year 2021 as follows:

  • Revenue is expected to be between $195 million and $205 million, compared to prior expectation* of $188 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $(85) million and $(75) million, compared to prior expectation* of $(96) million.(1)

*The Company’s original forecast was included in the Company’s Form S-4 initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 14, 2021 in connection with the Company’s business combination with Switchback II Corporation.

Recent Developments

As of September 30, 2021, total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, were $63 million. Following our completed combination with Switchback II on November 4, 2021, the combined company added approximately $414 million in incremental liquidity through a combination of Switchback II cash in trust, the proceeds of the previously announced private placement, and availability under Bird's credit facility with Apollo Investment Corporation and MidCap Financial Trust, in each case before payment of fees and expenses related to the business combination. Accordingly, total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, as of September 30, 2021 were $309 million after adjusting for $246 million received at the closing of the business combination.

(1) Bird has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA to forecasted GAAP net income (loss) within this press release because the Company is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence. These items include, but are not limited to, stock based compensation expense and interest on outstanding debt balances. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forward-looking GAAP net income (loss), are inherently uncertain and depend on various factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control. For more information regarding the non-GAAP financial measures discussed in this press release, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Metrics” below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Metrics

This press release contains “Ride Profit,” “Ride Profit Margin,” and “Adjusted EBITDA,” which are measures that are not prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Ride Profit reflects the profit generated from rides in our Sharing business after accounting for direct ride expenses, which primarily consist of payments to Fleet Managers. Other ride costs include payment processing fees, network infrastructure, and city permit fees. We calculate Ride Profit (i) before vehicle depreciation to illustrate the cash return and (ii) after vehicle depreciation to illustrate the impact of the evolution of our vehicles. Ride Profit Margin is Ride Profit divided by the revenue we generate from our Sharing business. We use Ride Profit Margin for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that Ride Profit and Ride Profit Margin are useful indicators of the economics of our Sharing business, as they exclude indirect unallocated expenses such as research and development, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating performance used to inform management decisions for the business. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our performance on a relative basis to other comparable businesses as it excludes impact from items that are non-cash in nature, non-recurring, or not related to our core business operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net profit or loss, adjusted to exclude (i) interest income, net, (ii) provision for/benefit from income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) vehicle count adjustments, (v) stock-based compensation expense, (vi) tariff refunds, (vii) other non-recurring, non-cash, or non-core items, and (viii) other income (expense), net, including foreign currency. There are a number of limitations related to the use of non-GAAP financial measures. In light of these limitations, we provide specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from Ride Profit, Ride Profit Margin and Adjusted EBITDA. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, see the appendix to this press release.

This press release also contains certain key business metrics which are used to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions. Gross Transaction Value (“GTV”) reflects the total dollar value, excluding any applicable taxes, of Rides in our Sharing business and vehicle sales to retail customers and Bird Platform partners, in each case without any adjustment for retail discounts or refunds. In order to calculate GTV, we add back contra revenues from both Sharing and Product Sales and adjustments to the Bird platform revenue we recognize. GTV is a key indicator of the scale of our business and ultimately drives revenue. We define “Rides” as the total number of trips completed by customers of our Sharing business. Rides are seasonal to a certain degree. We define “Deployed Vehicles” as the number of vehicles available to riders through our Sharing business. We calculate Deployed Vehicles on a pro-rata basis over a 24-hour period, wherein two vehicles deployed for a combined period of 24 hours equate to one Deployed Vehicle. Rides per Deployed Vehicle per Day (“RpD”) reflects the rate at which our shared vehicles are utilized by riders. We define RpD as the total number of Rides divided by total Deployed Vehicles in our Sharing business each calendar day.

The forward-looking statements in this press release speak only as of the time made and the Company does not undertake to update or revise them to reflect future events or circumstances.
