Crescent Acquisition Corp and LiveVox Reiterate First Quarter Highlights

and Announce Conference Attendance

Reported Q1 Bookings growth of 119% and Contracted Revenue growth of 23%

FY22 Revenue expected to grow 26% with upside to 35%

Special Meeting to Approve Transaction Set for June 16th, 2021 at 10 AM PT

San Francisco, CA – Crescent Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: CRSA) (“Crescent”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, and LiveVox Holdings, Inc. (“LiveVox” or the “Company”), a cloud-based provider of customer service and digital engagement tools, announced first quarter financial highlights in a webcast on May 24th, 2021. The webcast is available here or on Crescent’s website (www.crescentspac.com) under Investor Relations. Highlights of the webcast include:

 

   

First Quarter 2021 Bookings growth of 119% year-over-year, 7% above internal plan

 

   

First Quarter 2021 Contracted Revenue growth of 23% year-over-year, 2% above internal plan

 

   

23% growth in Quota Carrying Headcount year-over-year

 

   

Full Year 2021 Revenue guidance of $129 million reiterated

 

   

Full Year 2022 Revenue expected to grow 26% with upside to 35%

LiveVox projects contracted revenue growth to accelerate throughout the year, with 25% growth year-over-year being forecast for 2021 and higher growth projected for 2022. The Company also expects usage revenue to normalize as the global pandemic subsides, with the end of direct-to-consumer stimulus and collections forbearances driving potential upside to the 1.4x usage multiplier assumed for the 2022 revenue forecast of $163 million.

As a reminder, all Crescent stockholders as of the record date of May 10, 2021 are encouraged to vote on the business combination between Crescent and LiveVox (the “Business Combination”). You are encouraged to read the definitive proxy statement that Crescent filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 14, 2021 in connection with Crescent’s solicitation of proxies for the special meeting of the stockholders of Crescent to be held to approve the Business Combination and other related matters.
