NETSUITE ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL 2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Record Q4 Revenue of $85.0 Million, a 33% Year-over-Year Increase
Record 2012 Revenue of $308.8 Million, 31% Growth over Prior Year
2012 Operating Cash Flow of $54.3 Million, 50% Growth over Prior Year

SAN MATEO, Calif. - January 31, 2013-NetSuite Inc. (NYSE: N), the industry's leading provider of cloud-based financials / ERP software suites, today announced operating results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $85.0 million, representing a 33% increase over the prior year. Total revenue for the year was $308.8 million, a year-over-year increase of 31%.

Cash flow from operations was $13.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of $1.7 million, or 15%, over the same period last year. Cash flow from operations was $54.3 million for the year, an increase of $18.0 million, or 50%, over the prior year.

On a GAAP basis, net loss for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $9.6 million, or $(0.13) per share, as compared to a net loss of $7.6 million, or $(0.11) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. GAAP net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $35.2 million, or $(0.50) per share, as compared to a GAAP net loss of $32.0 million, or $(0.48) per share, in 2011.

Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $4.6 million, or $0.06 per share, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $3.4 million, or $0.05 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2011. Non-GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $19.1 million, or $0.26 per share, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $10.8 million, or $0.15 per share, in 2011.

"In a year that saw Microsoft once again fail to deliver cloud-native ERP solutions, and in a quarter that saw SAP miss their most recent top- and bottom-line forecast as more large enterprises moved to the cloud, NetSuite delivered its best year ever," said NetSuite CEO Zach Nelson. "And we continue to put even more distance between us and our competitors with the introduction of new capabilities like NetSuite SuiteCommerce which transforms operational business systems into customer-facing commerce solutions."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our stated results include certain non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP operating income, net income, weighted average shares outstanding, and net income per share. Non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income exclude expenses related to stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, transaction costs for business combinations and costs associated with the settlement of a patent dispute. Non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income exclude 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. We believe these adjustments provide useful comparative information to investors.

We consider these non-GAAP financial measures to be important because they provide useful measures of our operating performance and are used by our 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 our 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 operating income, net income, weighted average shares outstanding and net income per share, which are adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, transaction costs for business combinations and costs associated with the settlement of a patent dispute and includes 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.




NetSuite Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2012 Results


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 operating loss, 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.
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:


(a)
Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. We believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense allows for financial results that are more indicative of our operational performance and provide for a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies because stock-based compensation expense varies from period to period and company to company due to such things as differing valuation methodologies and changes in stock price.

(b)
Amortization of intangible assets and transaction costs related to business combinations resulted principally from mergers and acquisitions. Expense for the amortization of intangible assets is a non-cash item, and we believe the exclusion of this amortization expense provides for a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies. In Q2 2012, certain customers acquired in a previous business combination transitioned from their legacy service offering to a NetSuite service offering or terminated their service completely. As a result, we recorded a $401,000 impairment charge related to the legacy product's developed technology intangible asset. This impairment charge is included in amortization of intangible assets. Business combinations result in non-continuing operating expenses which would not otherwise have been incurred by us in the normal course of our business operations. We believe the exclusion of acquisition related expense items allows for financial results that are more indicative of our continuing operations and provide for a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies.

(c)
In 2011, we entered into a patent cross licensing agreement with a large technology company which, among other things, resolved a patent dispute over our alleged past usage of the other party's technology. This resolution resulted in a charge in the second quarter of 2011. We believe the impact of this patent cross licensing agreement on our financial statements is not indicative of our continuing operations and its exclusion allows for financial statements that provide for a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies.

(d)
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.
