Reports Record Quarterly Operating Cash Flow of $4.7 Million, an Improvement of $6.9 Million versus Q1 of 2009

 

   

Reports Record Calculated Bookings, Increasing 27% Year-over-Year

 

   

Effective July 1, 2010 Jim McGeever to be Promoted to Chief Operating Officer; Ron Gill to be Promoted to Chief Financial Officer

SAN MATEO, Calif. — May 3, 2010 — NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), a leading vendor of cloud computing business management software suites, today announced operating results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2010 was $43.9 million. Revenue from the Americas for the first quarter of 2010 was $35.5 million, while revenue from international regions was $8.4 million.

GAAP operating loss for the first quarter of 2010 was $6.6 million, compared to a GAAP operating loss of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. On a GAAP basis, net loss for the first quarter of 2010 was $7.1 million, or $(0.11) per share, compared to a net loss of $3.7 million, or $(0.06) per share in the first quarter of 2009.

Non-GAAP operating income for the first quarter of 2010 improved 81% year-over-year, growing to $1.4 million, compared to a non-GAAP operating income of $790,000 in the first quarter of 2009. Non-GAAP net income for the first quarter of 2010 was $930,000, or $0.01 per share, as compared to a non-GAAP net income of $1.0 million, or $0.02 per share, for the first quarter of 2009.

Calculated bookings for the quarter reached $47 million, representing the highest total for a quarter in the company’s history and growing 27% year-over-year and 2.5% sequentially. The year-over-year growth represents the fastest calculated bookings growth in more than a year. This sequential growth represents the first time in the company’s history as a public company that calculated bookings have grown Q1 over Q4. Calculated bookings are defined as the change in total deferred revenue plus revenue.


“Even in the face of traditional seasonal Q1 headwinds, NetSuite reported its strongest first quarter results as a public company. Revenue, non-GAAP operating income, operating cash flow and calculated bookings all reached record levels,” said Zach Nelson, CEO of NetSuite. “These results show NetSuite’s strong momentum in delivering solutions that meet customer requirements to run complex, mission-critical business processes in the cloud.”

CFO Transition Plan Announced: Jim McGeever to be Promoted to COO; Ron Gill to be Promoted to CFO

NetSuite also announced that, effective July 1, 2010, current Chief Financial Officer Jim McGeever, 43, will be promoted to Chief Operating Officer, at which time NetSuite’s Senior Vice President of Finance, Ron Gill, will become the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.

“Jim has served as NetSuite’s CFO for the past decade. His dedication and deep knowledge of NetSuite’s cloud computing solutions, customers and vertical strategy will make him invaluable in his newly expanded role as COO,” stated Zach Nelson, CEO of NetSuite.

Ron Gill, 44, has been responsible for NetSuite’s accounting and finance functions since joining the company in 2007. Prior to joining NetSuite, Ron was Vice President, Finance at Hyperion Solutions. Prior to Hyperion, he held a variety of financial positions with several of the world’s largest technology companies including SAP, Dell and Sony. Ron holds a Master of International Business Studies from the University of South Carolina and a B.A. from Baylor University. He is a member of the Board of Regents of the Institute of Certified Management Accountants.

“Ron is an exceptional financial executive who has provided significant leadership in NetSuite’s worldwide finance organization. As we continue to expand our leadership in cloud computing, Ron is the ideal executive to help us capitalize on the global opportunities that NetSuite is pursuing,” said Zach Nelson, CEO of NetSuite.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company’s stated results include certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating income/(loss), net income/(loss), weighted average shares outstanding, and net income/(loss) per share. Non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and Non-GAAP net income/(loss) excludes expenses related to stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets and transaction costs for business combinations. Non-GAAP operating income/(loss) and Non-GAAP net income/(loss) excludes these expenses as they are often excluded by other companies to help investors understand the operational performance of their business, and in the case of stock-based compensation, can be difficult to predict. The Company believes these adjustments provide useful comparative information to investors.

The Company considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of the operating performance of the Company and are used by the Company’s management for that purpose. In addition, investors often use measures such as these to evaluate the operating performance of a company. Non-GAAP results are presented for supplemental informational purposes only for understanding the Company’s operating results. The non-GAAP results should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, NetSuite uses non-GAAP measures of net income / (loss), weighted average shares outstanding and net income / (loss) per share, which are adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and transaction costs for business combinations to include dilutive shares where applicable. We believe these adjustments are appropriate to enhance an overall understanding of our past financial performance and also our prospects for the future. These adjustments to our current period GAAP results are made with the intent of providing both management and investors a more complete understanding of NetSuite’s underlying operating results and trends and our marketplace performance. The non-GAAP results are an indication of our baseline performance that are considered by management for the purpose of making operational decisions. In addition, these non-GAAP results are the primary indicators management uses as a basis for our planning and forecasting of future periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss or basic and diluted net loss per share prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Non-GAAP financial measures are not based on a comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and are subject to limitations.

 

(a) Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) for options granted after January 1, 2006, and Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 for options granted before January 1, 2006. Amortization of intangible assets and transaction costs related to business combinations resulted principally from mergers and acquisitions. While a large component of our expense in certain periods, we believe investors may want to exclude the effects of these items in order to compare our financial performance with that of other companies and between time periods.

 

(b) These securities are anti-dilutive on a GAAP basis as a result of the Company’s net loss, but are considered dilutive on a non-GAAP basis in periods where the Company has reported positive non-GAAP earnings.
