Sajan, Inc. Announces Record 4th Quarter Revenue 

and Full Financial Results for 

4th Quarter and Fiscal Year 2016 

 

RIVER FALLS, Wis., February 10, 2017 - Sajan, Inc. (NASDAQ: SAJA), a leading provider of global language services and translation management system technology, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

 

Revenues were a record $7,657,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 compared to $7,496,000 in the fourth quarter of 2015. The Company reported a net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 of ($165,000) including $259,000 of non-recurring restructuring costs, compared to net income of $263,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $290,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 compared to $515,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. See the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss).

 

Revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 were $29,219,000 compared to $29,688,000 in the same period of 2015. Net loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 was ($553,000) including $259,000 of non-recurring restructuring costs, compared to net income of $142,000 for the same period of 2015. Adjusted EBITDA was $561,000 in 2016 compared to $1,386,000 in 2015. See the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss).

 

Shannon Zimmerman, CEO of Sajan, commented on the Company’s 4th quarter results: “I am pleased with our record performance and continued revenue growth in the 4th quarter. Our largest clients were the main contributors as we saw our top 20 accounts comprise 74% of our 4th quarter revenue. We also took a major step in improving our profitability outlook for 2017 in November by restructuring our business. The actions taken impacted operations, sales and marketing, research and development and administrative areas of the Company. Although painful, we expect our actions to save the Company approximately $1,200,000 of annual compensation costs while not impacting our ability to achieve our long term revenue growth objectives”.

 

 

 

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Adjusted EBITDA

 

   Three months ended December 31,   Years ended December 31, 
EBITDA  2016   2015   2016   2015 
Net (loss) income  $(165)  $263   $(553)  $142 
Interest expense   4    3    18    49 
Income taxes   -    -    7    13 
Restructuring costs   259    -    259    - 
Depreciation and amortization   133    175    556    887 
Stock-based compensation   59    74    274    296 
Adjusted EBITDA  $290   $515   $561   $1,387 

 

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adding interest expense, income taxes, restructuring costs, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation. We believe that this non-GAAP measure of financial results provides useful information to management regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Our management uses this non-GAAP measure to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. This measure is also used in financial reports prepared for management and our board of directors. We believe that the use of this non-GAAP financial measure provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

 

Our management does not consider this non-GAAP measure in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of this non-GAAP financial measure is that it excludes significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, it is subject to inherent limitations as it reflects the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining this non-GAAP financial measure. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents this non-GAAP financial measure in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
