FIRST QUARTER RESULTS
Revenue
First quarter revenue of $215.3 million increased $16.1 million or 8% as compared to the first quarter of 2022. Revenue generated through our E-commerce sales channel decreased 6% as compared to the first quarter of 2022, to $119.8 million, and represented 56% of total revenue in the first quarter of 2023. The decline in E-commerce revenue was primarily driven by weakness in customer acquisition, partially offset by revenue generated from Pond5 which was acquired in May 2022. Revenue from our Enterprise sales channel increased 33% as compared to the first quarter of 2022, to $95.5 million, and represented 44% of first quarter revenue in 2023. The increase in Enterprise revenues was primarily driven by growth in our computer vision data partnerships and our Studios business, in addition to revenue generated from our acquisitions of Pond5 and Splash News.
On a constant currency basis, revenue increased 10% in the first quarter of 2023 as compared to the first quarter of 2022. On a constant currency basis, E-commerce revenue decreased by 4% and Enterprise revenues increased by 35% in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to 2022.
Net income and net income per diluted share
Net income of $32.8 million increased $6.3 million as compared to $26.6 million for the first quarter in 2022. Net income per diluted share was $0.90, as compared to $0.71 for the same period in 2022. These increases are due primarily to the first quarter 2023 revenue growth.
Adjusted net income per diluted share was $1.29 as compared to $1.00 for the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $0.29 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA of $69.8 million for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $15.0 million, or 27%, as compared to the first quarter of 2022, due primarily to increased revenue. The adjusted EBITDA margin of 32.4% for first quarter of 2023 increased by 490 basis points, as compared 27.5% in the first quarter of 2022.
FIRST QUARTER LIQUIDITY
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $19.3 million to $95.8 million at March 31, 2023, as compared with $115.2 million as of December 31, 2022. This decrease was driven by $70.7 million used in financing activities and $15.9 million used in investing activities, partially offset by $66.8 million of net cash provided by our operating activities.
Net cash provided by our operating activities was driven by our operating income, in addition to changes in the timing of cash collections from our customers and payments pertaining to operating expenses. Cash used in investing activities primarily consists of $15.9 million related to capital expenditures and content acquisition. Cash used in financing activities primarily consists of $50.0 million used for the repayment of our Credit Facility and $9.7 million related to the payment of the quarterly cash dividend.
Free cash flow was $50.9 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $40.7 million from the first quarter of 2022. This change was primarily driven by growth in cash flows from operating activities.
QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.27 per common share or $9.7 million.
On April 17, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.27 per share of outstanding common stock, payable on June 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 1, 2023.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
To supplement Shutterstock's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, Shutterstock's management considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, collectively referred to as non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow.
Shutterstock defines adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization, non-cash equity-based compensation, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations, interest income and expense and income taxes; adjusted EBITDA margin as the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to revenue; adjusted net income as net income adjusted for the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, severance costs associated with strategic workforce optimizations and the estimated tax impact of such adjustments; adjusted net income per diluted share as adjusted net income divided by weighted average diluted shares; revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage) as the increase in current period revenues over prior period revenues, utilizing fixed exchange rates for translating foreign currency revenues for all periods in the comparison; billings as revenue adjusted for the change in deferred revenue, excluding deferred revenue acquired through business combinations; and free cash flow as cash provided by operating activities, adjusted for capital expenditures, and content acquisition. These figures have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP and should be considered only in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. Shutterstock cautions investors that non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.
Shutterstock's management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow are useful to investors because these measures enable investors to analyze Shutterstock's operating results on the same basis as that used by management. Additionally, management believes that adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share provide useful information to investors about the performance of the Company's overall business because such measures eliminate the effects of unusual or other infrequent charges that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock's underlying operating performance; and revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage) provides useful information to investors by eliminating the effect of foreign currency fluctuations that are not directly attributable to Shutterstock's operating performance. Management also believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures enhances the comparability for investors in assessing Shutterstock's financial reporting. Shutterstock's management believes that free cash flow is useful for investors because it provides them with an important perspective on the cash available for strategic measures, after making necessary capital investments in internal-use software and website development costs to support the Company's ongoing business operations and provides them with the same measures that management uses as the basis for making resource allocation decisions.
Shutterstock's management also uses the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings and free cash flow, in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, as an integral part of managing the business and to, among other things: (i) monitor and evaluate the performance of Shutterstock's business operations, financial performance and overall liquidity; (ii) facilitate management's internal comparisons of the historical operating performance of its business operations; (iii) facilitate management's external comparisons of the results of its overall business to the historical operating performance of other companies that may have different capital structures and debt levels; (iv) review and assess the operating performance of Shutterstock's management team and, together with other operational objectives, as a measure in evaluating employee compensation and bonuses; (v) analyze and evaluate financial and strategic planning decisions regarding future operating investments; and (vi) plan for and prepare future annual operating budgets and determine appropriate levels of operating investments.
Reconciliations of the differences between adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, revenue growth (including by distribution channel) on a constant currency basis (expressed as a percentage), billings, free cash flow, and the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, are presented under the headings "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information to GAAP" and "Supplemental Financial Data" immediately following the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We do not provide a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income guidance or a reconciliation of adjusted net income per diluted share guidance to net income per diluted share guidance, because we are unable to calculate with reasonable certainty the impact of potential future transactions, including, but not limited to, capital structure transactions, restructuring, acquisitions, divestitures or other events and asset impairments, without unreasonable effort. These amounts depend on various factors and could have a material impact on net income and net income per diluted share, but may be excluded from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income per diluted share. In addition, we believe such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
