Thank you, Matt. Good afternoon and welcome to everyone. We're pleased to report fourth quarter and full-year results that exceeded our expectations. Our SaaS and license revenue for the year 2021 was $460.4 million up 17.1% over the last year. Our adjusted EBITDA for the full-year was $142.5 million. Our results benefited from continued momentum in both the residential and commercial connected property markets in the U.S. and Canada. We close the year with more than 10,900 service provider partners, who deliver our technology to more than 8.4 million subscribers in 58 countries around the globe. I want to thank our service provider partners and our employees for their resilience and contribution to our 2021 performance. As we get the New Year underway, I will use today's call to discuss our strategy and how we plan to continue to grow. I will also highlight a few examples of the new capabilities that we introduced to our markets in 2021. Our strategy is to be the defining security oriented IoT platform for four different property types, residential, multifamily, small business, and commercial or institutional enterprises. For each of these property types, we have a roadmap to deploy fully integrated best in class applications that span security and surveillance, automation, energy management, water management and health. The key areas that drove much of our growth in 2021, and that I expect to continue to drive growth in 2022 and beyond are our expansion into commercial markets, our video software initiatives, our expanding international business, and our energy management business. I'll begin with our commercial opportunity. As I reported to you during the year, commercial market activity returned to pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter. Our strategy is to develop software based capabilities that will deliver unique value to commercial customers through the deep integration of security, video, access control and energy management solutions. We initially built a solid toehold in the small business segment and have since been growing upstream. Last year, we released an innovative video analytics service called Business Activity Analytics, which we designed for mid-tier commercial customers. This segment consists of properties that require more elaborate video surveillance solutions, and then much higher number of cameras than a typical small business. Business Activity Analytics provides occupancy tracking, people counting, monitoring and detection of crowd gathering. It also includes our robust enterprise business intelligence reporting, subscribers can analyze activity trends and heat maps, and monitor foot traffic and customer flows. The initial uptake of this capability has been solid with nearly 1,700 new accounts per month, activating business activity analytics as we exited 2021. We have also been growing OpenEye. OpenEye is an Alarm.com business and a leading provider of video surveillance as a service for large scale enterprise commercial customers. These enterprises have robust video surveillance requirements and include universities, banks, national retail chains, schools and property management companies. Since we acquired OpenEye in 2019, the team has developed new platform capabilities, including integrating our AI software. And this has allowed them to expand their market opportunity and begin to shift their business models on to one that also drives SaaS revenue. Next, I'll shift to the residential market. We saw solid demand for Smart Home Security in North America throughout 2021. Consumers are investing in their homes and security remains the primary purchase driver of Smart Home technology. Our home builder program has been one of several bright spots in the residential market. We launched the program in mid-2018 and our team has worked hard to engage potential partners and tailor our offerings for builders. These investments put us in an advantageous position as demand for new housing accelerated. Currently, 18 of the top 20 builders now use Alarm.com, some of which have standardized on Alarm.com for all of their new home developments. In the fourth quarter, we also launched the Alarm.com Smart Thermostat HD to round out our thermostat lineup with a premium offering. It has a high resolution full color touchscreen display and our cloud based energy management software provides intelligent next level of comfort and control. An important element of our residential strategy is our initiative to apply our AI software to monitoring stations and Alarm response events. Last year, we introduced a first to market capability called Ambient Insights for alarm response. It evaluates alarm signals, and then provides a real time determination to the monitoring station as to the likelihood that the property owner will cancel the alarm. Operators can then more effectively prioritize multiple alarm events. As a result, they can dispatch emergency services faster to the highest priority alarms and can also help reduce false alarm dispatches. Coupled with our visual verification service, monitoring stations can provide a broad range of critical information to public safety dispatchers and first responders. Another tenet of our strategy is to deliver the most capable video monitoring offering and a broadly accessible price point. Investments in our video platform has led to innovative new capabilities that drive growth for our service providers, significantly increased customer engagement and improve installation efficiency and performance. I'll give a few recent examples. In 2021, we began broadly deploying video analytics capabilities designed to proactively deter break ins and other security incidents. The Alarm.com 770 Video Doorbell fully launched last year, with a market leading video analytics package that can identify people and monitor them based on a range of customizable settings. We also launched Perimeter Guard. This video analytics capability identifies people anywhere around the perimeter of a property. Coupled with our new set of 24 outdoor camera, Perimeter Guard can respond with both audible alerts and flashing lights. This increases the deterrence value of our systems by putting a potential intruder on notice that they are being actively watched. Our international business is another area of growth and a key element of our strategy. In 2021, we continue to expand our global presence and product offering and grew our solid base of International Service Providers. During the fourth quarter, and despite a difficult international COVID environment, SaaS revenue from our international business increased by over 25% from a year ago. We believe that we are in a good position to continue to meaningfully grow our international business in 2022. The final key element of our strategy is the expansion of our addressable market through our segments businesses. These include PointCentral, EnergyHub and Building 36. Each business is focused on an attractive market opportunity and are in different stages of development. As reported in our other segment, SaaS revenue for these businesses grew 26.9% in 2021. PointCentral supports vacation rental property management companies and apartment properties. Its solution fully integrates devices, sensors, and systems to give property managers an enterprise service for access control, energy management, and property security. Building 36 partners with HVAC servicing companies provide energy, water and air quality solutions. The Building 36 team also leads our product development efforts in these domains, including the development of our new smart thermostat HD. In 2021, they made solid progress expanding their product and partner base. EnergyHub provides enterprise software services that enable energy utilities to flexibly manage demand on the electricity grid through customer owned and enrolled distributed energy resources. These resources include smart thermostats, batteries, commercial and industrial resources, solar inverters, and electric vehicle chargers. Energy Hub has expanded its customer base and now works with 60 of North America's leading energy utilities. Its platform manages over 700,000 grid edge devices. The largest fleet of any distributed energy resource management solution provider in North America. To conclude, our key growth initiatives are delivering increasingly meaningful contributions to our business. Going forward, our focus is on blocking and tackling as we continue to execute the strategy we have laid in place so that we can further grow these areas in 2022 and beyond. And with that, let me turn things over to Steve Valenzuela. Steve?

Thanks, Steve. I'll begin with a review of our fourth quarter and full-year 2021 financial results, and then provide guidance for 2022 before opening the call for questions. SaaS and licensed revenue in the fourth quarter grew 15.4% from the same quarter last year to $121.7 million. This includes Connect software license revenue of approximately $7.4 million for the fourth quarter down as expected from $9 million in the year ago quarter. SaaS and licensed revenue for our Alarm.com segment grew 14.2% in the fourth quarter, and our other segment grew 30.9% year-over-year. For the full-year of 2021, SaaS and licensed revenue are $460.4 million grew 17.1% over 2020. Our Alarm.com segment grew SaaS revenue by 16.4% year-over-year, and our other segment grew 26.9% in 2021. Our SaaS and licensed revenue visibility remains high. Our revenue renewal rate of 94% in the fourth quarter is at the high end of our historical range of 92% to 94%. Hardware and another revenue in the fourth quarter was $73.5 million up 22.4% over Q4 of 2020. The increase in hardware revenue was primarily due to an increase in sales of our video cameras. Total revenue of $195.3 million for the fourth quarter grew 17.9% from Q4 2020. For the full-year of 2021, total revenue grew 21.2% to $749 million. SaaS and license gross margin for the fourth quarter was 86.1%, an increase of approximately 80 basis points quarter-over-quarter, mainly due to mix. Hardware gross margin was 11.1% for the fourth quarter, compared to 15.2% for Q3 2021. The lower hardware margin is mainly due to increased shipping costs and supplier price increases. We are increasingly having to address global supply chain challenges by tactically using air freight transportation for certain products. Because our costs are significantly higher. We have also announced price increases on some of our products, which will be phased in starting this quarter. We anticipate gross margins gradually improving from Q4 levels this year, borrowing additional supplier price increases or the need to airfreight products beyond our current plan. Total gross margin was 57.8% for the fourth quarter, compared to 58.2% for Q3 2021. Mainly due to the lower hardware margins and a higher mix of hardware revenue. Turning to operating expenses, R&D expenses in the fourth quarter were $47.6 million, compared to $38.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. We ended 2021 with 837 employees in R&D, up from 780 employees at the end of 2020. Total headcount increased to 1,500 employees compared to $1,404 employees on prior year. Sales and marketing expenses in the fourth quarter were $24.6 million, or 12.6% of total revenue compared to $23.6 million or 14.2% of revenue in the same quarter last year. Our G&A expenses in the fourth quarter were $22.6 million, compared to $23 million in the year-ago quarter, mainly due to lower legal and acquisition related expenses. G&A expense in the fourth quarter includes non-ordinary court litigation expense of $1.8 million, compared to $2.5 million for Q4 2020. Non-ordinary court litigation expenses are part of our adjusted measures and are excluded from our measurement of our non-GAAP financial performance. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA on the fourth quarter was $31.3 million compared to $32.4 million in Q4 of 2020. For all of 2021 adjusted EBITDA was $142.5 million up 13.7% from adjusted EBITDA of $125.3 million for 2020. In the fourth quarter, GAAP net income was $9.1 million compared to GAAP net income of $16 million for Q4 of 2020. Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $22.6 million or $0.43 per diluted share in the fourth quarter, compared to $23.1 million or $0.45 cents per share for the fourth quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP adjusted net income per 2021 was $103.5 million or $0.99 per diluted share up 15.8% from non-GAAP net income of $89.4 million or $1.75 per share for 2020. Turning to our balance sheet, we ended the fourth quarter with $710.6 million of cash and cash equivalents up from $253.5 million on December 31, 2020. The increase in cash was mainly due to the net proceeds of $484.3 million from our convertible bond offering in January 2021. And our positive free cash flow for 2021 partially offset by the payoff of our senior revolving debt facility of $110 million. In the fourth quarter, we generated approximately $20 million in cash flow from operations compared to $35.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Our free cash flow for the fourth quarter was $17.8 million, compared to $29.9 million for the same quarter last year. In the fourth quarter, our capital equipment purchases were about $2.1 million, compared to $5.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 mainly due to less facility build out costs. Through the 12 months ended December 31, 2021. We generated $103.2 million of cash flow from operations compared to $102.1 million for 2020. Our free cash flow for 2021 was $92.1 million compared to $85.9 million for 2020. Turning to our financial outlook. For the first quarter of 2022, we expect SaaS and licensed revenue of $121 million to $121.2 million. For the full-year of 2022, we expect SaaS and licensed revenue to be between $508 million to $509 million. We are projecting total revenue for 2022 of $808 million to $819 million, which includes estimated hardware and other revenue of $300 million to $310 million. I want to note that the global supply chain continues to be very challenging. While we have factored in some additional air freight, we have anticipated some improvement in 2022. We have decent visibility through the first couple quarters of the year. But if the supply chain becomes more constrained and we are not able to get access to key components or need to continue to ship products via airfreight further into the year than anticipated that this will impact our results and our guidance. We estimate that net adjusted EBITDA for 2022 will be between $149 million to $150 million. We expect adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter to represent approximately 17% to 18% of our annual guide with the remaining EBITDA spread about evenly over the following three quarters of 2022. We have factored in more travel and tradeshow expenses in our plans for 2022. As we are seeing a return in person activities and events, such as the ISC West tradeshow, which is scheduled to be held in Las Vegas on March 23 to the 25th. Non-GAAP net income for 2022 is projected to be $104.3 million to $105 million, or $1.86 to $1.88 per diluted share. EPS is based on an estimate of $56 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding, which now includes approximately 3.4 million shares on an if-converted basis. We are required to include these shares in our outstanding share count related to our convertible bonds with our adoption of ASU 2020-06, accounting for debt with conversion and other options. This non-cash impact reduces our non-GAAP EPS by approximately $0.12 to $0.13 for 2022, which is reflected in our guidance. We currently project our non-GAAP tax rate for 2022 to remain a 21% under current tax rules. We expect full-year of 2022 stock-based compensation expense up $50 million to $52 million. In summary, we are pleased to how well our service providers and internal teams have navigated this challenging time. We are focused on executing on our business and investing in our long-term strategy, while continuing to deliver profitable growth. And with that operator, please open the call for Q&A.

[Operator Instructions] Our first question or comment comes from the line of Adam Tindle from Raymond James. Your line is open.

Okay, thanks. Good afternoon, and congrats on a strong finish. Obviously, the very strong hardware growth is continuing. And I would imagine that creates an opportunity to upsell services over time as you see the market with many units. So maybe a two parter one for Steve T, you talked about an upsell engine a couple of quarters ago, maybe you could talk about the progress and what you're experiencing there. And then Steve V from a financial standpoint, I'm noticing that the net dollar retention metrics are very healthy and up again, I would imagine that this maybe ties into this theme. Where do you think that that metric could go over time?

Hey, Adam, yes upsell continues to be a driver of some of the hardware growth. It is primarily centered on video, which is great, because that also allows us to push some SaaS growth from the existing base as well. And we think that we'll probably continue, I believe that we saw growth in sales of video cameras last year to existing customers of around 36%. So pretty happy with that number. And I wouldn't say we're doing everything yet possible to do all that we can do there because we've also had a pretty meaningful focus on the 3G upgrades, which has eaten a lot of the cycles that our service providers have in terms of going back to the existing customers. But I think that that continues to be something that we can push and hopefully even expand beyond video and get into the thermostat Smart Water Valve, the Flex Sensor and some of the other devices, but it is increasingly a meaningful chunk of our business.

Hi, Adam. For your second part, it's Steve Valenzuela. The 94% dollar retention rate certainly has been very strong. I would say in the short-term, in the near term with the 3G upgrades, we might see a slight decline there. But I would think longer-term and hard to define longer-term given all the upgrades and the video and video analytics and how compelling the solution is with those features. I would think over the long-term, we should see that retention rate inch up over the next couple of years, it would be nice to see over 100%, I'm not saying that we would hit that point. But I think once you get a system like this with video and video analytics, it's very hard to go without it. So it's very compelling solution.

Understood and maybe just as a quick follow-up, I mean, balance sheet remains very healthy. And in light of Securitas family combination. Recently here, I thought I might ask about M&A priorities again, given some of those things that are going on, and maybe you could double click on that deal specifically if it has implications for you, but would you consider something of that size and maybe just kind of revisit your priorities for M&A given balance sheet? Thank you.

Sure. So on that deal, and specifically, I mean we are -- we have a good partnership with Securitas. And that there's not a lot of commenting on that deal because it's still subject to some regulatory review and I believe that it closes a little bit later this year. So we're not probably able to comment too much on what's going on there. With regard to your own view, yes, we're sitting on a pretty active corporate development pipeline of opportunities we're looking at, we don't really, we're looking for the right opportunities as opposed to the right size. So if something we're sizable, but really represented the right opportunity for the company, then that's something we would consider doing, I don't think that we'll be actively buying service providers, because our customers or service providers, and we like it that way. So I think we're looking more on the -- looking at opportunities that further our technology stack, or further the addressable market that we're able to attach to. And some of them will be smaller opportunities, some large but certainly an area of focus for us. And I'd say probably it's getting better now than it was last year, slowly, but surely, we're seeing some more reasonable discussions of value, and probably a higher likelihood that a strategic can be effective in the current market, and maybe what we saw six months ago, when things were potentially a little bit more frothy.

Very helpful. Thanks and congrats again.

Thanks, Adam.

Thank you. Our next question or comment comes from the line of Sterling Auty from JPMorgan, your line is open.

Hi, guys, this is Rachit on for Sterling. Can you give colors on the demand moment around Thermostat as HD and how should we think about revenue contribution from the solution?

Sure, so Thermostat HD is a new product. It rounds out our lineup of thermostats, the weakness in our lineup historically has been that we've had a great thermostat, good value proposition there, at a great price points been very useful in our service provider channel. If you're doing a new home build, oftentimes you want to really, we haven't had a thermostat that had a super elegant touchscreen on it, very vibrant display, that sort of thing. Our strategy has been to sort of blend into the wall and then do all of the thinking in the cloud and on the app itself and let the user drive everything from that location. Especially in our builder market, there's demand for a higher end thermostat. And that's what Thermostat HD is servicing. Also, in the HVAC trade, there's demand for a higher end thermostat. So incremental contribution, I don't think it's going to be a dial mover in terms of incremental contribution of hardware revenue. I think it's just an incremental improvement and the range of offerings we bring to the market and then Thermostat is important to us because it allows us to better serve our customers in the multifamily space and then the builder space and then the HVAC trade and then has some downstream value to our energy hub business as well. So it's an important product, but I wouldn't say it's going to drive a massive incremental hardware contribution. I could be surprised but it would drive incremental improvement.

Thank you. Our next question or comment comes from the line of Brian Ruttenbur from Imperial Capital. Your line is open.

Yes, thank you very much. Great quarter and year. Couple of questions on gross profit. First of all, I think that you came in around 12% gross profit on the hardware that's down by about half year-over-year and you've sequentially been going down. I guess I'm stating the obvious here. Are we at a bottom gear, can we look for anything worse than this? It looks like we've hit a bottom here, or at least it's slowed. Can you talk about what kind of surprises would we have? I guess are they getting any worse on the hardware side?

Yes, good question, Brian, you're correct. Margins on hardware has slid, we haven't I'll just be clear and say we haven't worried about it a time. And in our business as a SaaS business and our primary goal has been to get the service providers the product, they need to get the installations done, and ideally at a good value so that we don't create too much acquisition cost for them when they're attempting to create new subscribers. So that's always our primary goal. And then to run a sustainable business, you need to drive some margin on the hardware. I think Steve commented that we did finally go ahead and put through a price increase in the first quarter, we think that will gradually lift margins. So are we absolutely at the bottom? I think we're probably at the bottom at the moment, unless we were to make a strategic decision in some way, shape or form about just the overall hardware margin profile. But in terms of running the business, the way we've traditionally run it, I think we're probably at the bottom. That said, the supply chain is, it's still a fairly volatile place. And things change week to week. So we will continue to emphasize getting our service providers the product they need, and if something comes up that we need to work through, even at the expense of hardware margins, we will do it. But if I were to guess I'd say we're probably at about the bottom right now.

Great. And just as a follow-up on that, you mentioned a price increase, can you ballpark us? I'm sure there's multiple products, and it gives us an average on how much you increase prices? And has that already gone through the system, was there any pushback? And then the last part of that very long question was how long before we get back to the 20s on hardware? Is that two years out, three years out?

So, first part of the question, on average, as you noted, it vary dramatically by SKU, but on average, probably 8% or 9% was the effective price increase. And that is mostly through the system at this point. Did we get, people call us up and thanked us for raising that. No, they don't do are they in an understanding kind of mode at the moment, I would say they are because most of our peers and competitors in the industry push through the multiple price increases last year. Our focus has been sort of to provide the best value we can and where possible to be the last to increase prices. So I think most of our service providers were conditioned to expect something. And now they're working through the process of increasing the prices that they take to the market as part of this inflationary cycle. So we're -- we felt like we handled it well, it's pretty much done at this point. And will we get back to 20% hardware margins. That's going to be a function primarily of mix. There are some places where our real focus on the hardware is enabling SaaS. And if we see, a situation where lower hardware margin can be a driver of much higher service revenue, then that will be our approach. And that's the approach in some parts of the market today, I would say particularly on the residential side. In other places, the SaaS contribution from hardware is not quite as high. So when we look at the commercial side, on dollar-per-dollar basis, it's more typical than to run some higher margin on the commercial side. For every $1,000 of hardware sold, you're not generating quite as much flat as you do on the residential side, even though you're getting higher ARPU per side. So there will see higher margins and I would say that will gradually pull the overall blended up some through time as well. And that's probably about where I'd leave it. Do I know that we're going to get to 20% I don't it is still our kind of preferred practice. There's a level where, just to cover your cost, the capital allocation cost, the inventory management costs, that sort of thing. If you're running much below that, then then you really have to have a good reason for it.

Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question or comment comes from the line of Darren Aftahi from ROTH Capital. Your line is open.

Hi, thanks for taking my questions. It's Dillon [ph] for Darren. First one, could you talk about with some of the mass mandates dropping across the country if you've seen any pickup for RFPs or activity in the commercial channel and comment on a little bit how that pipeline might look now versus three or four months ago?

Yes, I'm not sure it's been coupled to a dates dropping. We saw recovery in the commercial channels really start to happen in third quarter of last year, certainly that's when we started seeing the pipelines fill back up we saw. [Technical Difficulty].

Ladies and gentlemen, please stand by the line disconnected. We're waiting for them to call back in.

Hi, we're back. We had a long cut.

Go ahead sir.

We're back. I think the last question that I answered this is Steve Trundle speaking was regarding the commercial pipeline. The summary on that was simply that the pipeline began to strengthen in the third quarter of last year. And we -- whether it's going to continue that as a result of mask mandates being dropped? I don't know. But I believe that as small businesses are more robust with more customers out and about that we would continue to see that that part of the business be strong. I indicated that on the open eyes indication, which is very focused on enterprise level sales, grew their business 51% last year. So that was the -- that's a summary of the last question I had before we realized the line had dropped. And I'll take any other questions we have. Dillon, did you have any other questions? I think you were the last person to ask the question.

Yes, I have one more if you can hear me.

Sure.

Yes. So I think you mentioned about 25% international growth. Care to call out any countries that you're seeing some over indexing?

Yes, we can call out, the one that has pleasantly surprised me has been Argentina, can't play because a very strong service provider in that market that's been doing well. I'd say LATAM in general has been stronger over the last year. International as a whole. I mean, I'm happy with 25% because it was a tough kind of COVID environment last year for international service providers. And I think on several calls, we talked about the international market being tougher than the North American market as a result of COVID. Even with that, our international team still grew that business 25% clip and I think we're really kind of anxious as we move into this year to get a very, very focused there and hopefully see more growth coming out of Europe and Southeast Asia as well.

Great, thank you.

Thanks.

Thank you. Our next question or comment comes from the line Jack Vander Aarde from Maxim Group. Your line is open.

Great. Nice quarter, guys. Thanks for taking my question.

Thanks.

Steve Trundle, I think you said in your prepared remarks. I mean, you laid out your 2022 kind of key growth focus areas, and then I think I heard an update total subscriber count was that 8.4 million?

That's right. 8.4 million subscribers. Yes, sir.

Got you. Okay, cool. Well, that's great growth in the subscriber count, just maybe for some contacts and Steve Valenzuela, I'm sure you can help too. Wherever you're able to provide I know you don't explicitly do this normally. But just to get context, a rough break out of maybe residential versus commercial versus international residential within that subscriber group?

Sure, I can give you a just some ballpark numbers. It's Steve Trundle speaking. So international, we're right up against about half a million subscribers now. So very happy with how the team has built that business getting to the point that their real numbers there. And if we can begin to grow that business, at sort of the current level of scale, that'd be great. Commercial, same type of range, I'm going to say 400,000 to 500,000 total subscribers, maybe closer to 400,000 right now. Adding around 25,000 sites per quarter on commercial subscription. So pretty happy with that as well. Still have a lot of time to explore there. But and then the rest, I would say break those two categories. How we breakout commercial, breakout international. Now there is a little bit of overlap between international and commercial, some of our international customers are commercial, but you break those out, and then everything left is going to be primarily residential, either single family home or multi-family or vacation only.

Great, that's really helpful color. And then just maybe over the next couple, maybe this year, maybe the next year, two or three years out. It's great to see the international subscriber count hit that kind of half a million, but where do you -- how do you see that trending? Is there a way to quantified in anyway, maybe like one you expected a million or more?

As soon as possible. But I would say it's -- well, let me think out. But the internationals growing at the moment and probably will continue to grow faster than the company's overall growth rate. We believe that will continue to be the case, if we look forward some period of time, our belief has always been that our rest of world market would be about the same in terms of size and contribution as the domestic and we include Canada, our friends in Canada in the domestic market. So that's what we're shooting for. I can't right now give you a timeline where we get to a million. I don't have that in front of me. I'm not sure, but I just say that we -- our goal is certainly for international to be off the same size as our North American business.

Okay, great. I appreciate the color. That's it for me. Thanks.

Thank you.
