QlikTech Announces Preliminary Second Quarter 2012 Financial Results

RADNOR, Pennsylvania – July 9, 2012 - Qlik Technologies Inc. (“QlikTech”) (Nasdaq: QLIK), a leader in Business Discovery — user-driven Business Intelligence (BI), today announced preliminary financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012.

QlikTech currently expects to report revenue in the range of $84.0 million to $86.0 million or approximately 14% to 16% year-over-year growth. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from the prior year period are expected to have a negative impact of approximately 8% on total revenue for the second quarter. License revenue is expected to be in the range of $48.0 million to $50.0 million, maintenance revenue is expected to be in the range of $28.0 million to $29.0 million and professional services revenue is expected to be approximately $7.0 million.

Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be in the range of $1.0 million to $2.0 million and non-GAAP net income per diluted common share is expected to be in the range of $0.01 to $0.02. These non-GAAP measures exclude stock-based compensation expense and employer payroll taxes related to stock transactions and assume an estimated long-term effective tax rate of 32% and weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 88 million.

Second quarter preliminary results are subject to change based on the completion of the company’s normal quarter-end review process.

Lars Björk, Chief Executive Officer of QlikTech, stated, “Second quarter results were impacted by challenging macroeconomic conditions, especially in Europe, which affected deal closure late in the quarter, as well as weakening European currencies. While we are disappointed in these results, we remain encouraged by the strength of our competitive positioning and our growing pipeline of opportunities. Our sales teams are acutely focused on adapting to the changes in the selling environment and further reinforcing the value QlikView delivers.”

QlikTech will release its full second quarter 2012 financial results on July 26, 2012 after the market closes. A conference call will be held at 5:00 pm Eastern Time (ET) on the same day. At that time, the company will discuss its quarterly performance for the second quarter and outlook for the third quarter and full year 2012. Instructions for accessing this call will be issued in a separate press release to follow.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, QlikTech uses measures of non-GAAP operating income (loss), non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP income (loss) per share and constant currency. QlikTech believes that the preliminary non-GAAP financial information provided in this release can assist investors in understanding and assessing QlikTech’s on-going core operations and prospects for the future and provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing QlikTech’s financial results with other companies in QlikTech’s industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant elements that are required by GAAP to be recorded in QlikTech’s financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management of QlikTech presents its non-GAAP financial measures in connection with its GAAP results. Investors are encouraged to review reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

To determine the impact from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from prior year periods on current period revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012, revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies was translated into U.S. dollars using the comparable prior year period’s foreign currency exchange rates.
